A SIMPLE way TO
REMOVE DANDRUFF
Prevent Falling Hair and End
Itching Scalp.

There is one sure way that has
never failed to remove dandruff
at once, and that is to dissolve II,
then you destroy 1t entirely. To
do this, just get about four ounces
of plain, common liquid arvon
from any drug store (this is all
you will need), apply 1t at night
when retiring; use enough to
|moisten the scalp and rub IL in
gently with the finger tips.
BY morning most, If not all. of
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications
will completely dissolve, and en-
.firely destroy, every single sign
and trace of 1t, no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop in
Nstantly and your hair will be
Hnffy, lustrou,,, glossy, silky and
spft, and look and feel hundred
tines better.
If you value your hair, YOU
should get rid of dandruff at
once, for nothing destroys the
hair so quickly. It not only
starves the hair and makes II fall
out, but 1t makes 1t stringy. stray
gly, dull, dry. brittle and lifeless,
and everybody notices 1t.
