The Easiest Way
To End Dandruff

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This destroys
it entirely. To do this, just get about
four ounces of plain, ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retiring;
use enough to moisten the scalp and
rub it 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 entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop in
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive, and four
ounces is all you will need. This sim
pie remedy has never been known to
fail.-Adv.

Discovery Enables Any
One to Have Curly Hair

Quite accidentally some one made the
discovery that the application of ordinary
liquid silmerne would actually turn
straight har curly and wavy IL few
hours She told her trends about it,
who in turn told others and now thousands
of women have profited by the Informal
ton. The simplicity and harmlessness of
this method, and the way the hair dries
in such pretty curls and crikles, will
appeal to any one who tries it.
The favorite way is to apply the sill
merine with a clean tooth brush before
retiring. The effect upon arising is quite
surprising, the curliness having such a
natural appearance and the hair being so
bright and lustrous Particularly will this
be appreciated by the habitual user of
the despoiling waving iron-which, hap
PLY, now be discarded. The liquid
silmerine, which can of course be OBJ
tanned from any druggist, is neither sticky
nor greasy A few ounces will keep the
hair curly for many weeks-Mirror of
