DANDRUFF GOES!
HAIR GETS THICK,
WAVY, BEAUTIFUL
Save your hairl y Douhl, ito beauty
In few moments.
Try this!
Hair stops coming out and every
particle Of dandruff
disappears.

Try as you will, after an application
OF Danderine, you can not mud a sin.
gle trace OF dandrutf or falling hair
and your scalp will not itch, but what
will please you most, will be after a
few weeks use, when you see new
hair, fine and downy at frst-yes-
but really new hair-growing all over
the scalp.
a little 'Danderine Immediately
doubles the beauty OF your hair. No
difference how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy, just moisten a cloth with
Danderine and carefully draw 1t
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time. The effect is i'm.
mediate and amazing-your hair will
be light. fluffy and wavy, and have an
appearance OF abundance; an incom.
parable lustre, sottness and luxuri.
ance, the beauty and simmer OF true
hair health.
Get a 25-cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any drug store or
toilet counter. and prove that your
hair is as pretty and soft as any
that 1t has been neglected or injured
by careless treatment-that's all.
Danderine is TO the hair what fresh
showers OF rain and sunshine are to
vegetation. 1t goes right to the roots,
invigorates and strengthens them. Its
exhilarating, stimulating and life-
producing properties cause the hair to
grow long, strong and beautiful.
