GIRLS! STOP WASHING
THE HAIR WITH SOAP
Soap Dries Your Scalp, Causing Dandruif,
Then Hair Falls out-Try
This Next Time

After washing your hair with soap
always apply little Danderine to the
scalp TO invigorate the hair and prevent
dryness. Better still, use soap as spar
ingly as possible, and instead have a
"Danderine hair cleanse" just moisten
a cloth with Danderine and draw II
carefully through your hair, taking one
strand at time. This will remove dust,
dirt and excessive oil. In few moments
you will be amazed, your hair will not
only be clean, but it will be wavy, fluffy
and abundant, and possess an incompar-
able softness and luster.
Besides cleansing and Identifying the
hair, one application of Danderine dis
solves every particle of dandrutf stimu-
lates the scalp, stopping itching and fall
ing hair 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
exhlarating and producing properties
cause the hair to grow long, strong and
beautiful.
Men LADIES' You can surely have
lots of charming hair. Get 25.cent
bottle of Knowltons Danderine from
any drug store or toilet counter and
try it.Adyt.
