THE HAIR BEAUTY
THAT BELONGS TO YOU

So many who have long known that
hair beauty was certain to follow up
on systematic hair care have been loath
TO commence what they mistakenly
think too much trouble. Proper hair
care means only keeping the scalp and
hair perfectly clean by use Of some
preparation made for shampoOing, not
for general cleansing. You can enjoy
the best that is known for about three
cents a shampoo by getting a package
Of Canthrox from your druggist Dis
solve a teaspoonful in cup Of hot
water and your shampoo is ready
After its use the hair dries rapidly
with uniform color Dandruff, excess
oil and dirt are dissolved and entirely
disappear Your hair will be so fluffy
that it will look much heavier than it
is. Its luster and softness viii also
delight you. while the stimulated scalp
gains the health which insures hair
