THE HAIR BEAUTY
THAT BELONGS TO YOU

So many who have long known
that hair beauty as certain TO fol-
low upon 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
shampooine. not for general cleans
ing. You. can enjoy the best that IS
known for about three cents a sham
poo by getting a package OF Can
throx from your druggist. Dissolve
a teaspoonful in a 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 20
fluffy that it will look much heavier
than it is. Its lustre and softness
will also delight you, while the
stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth.
