HOW TO BE RID OF
DISGUSTING DANDRUFF

The only way to be permanently rid
or disgusting, untidy dandruff is to
correct it's cause. Washing merely
cleanses the scalp for a few days, and
the scales form again as thick as ever.
To destroy the dandruff germ and
get rid of dandruff for good, part the
hair and apply little of the genuine
Partisan Sage directly on the bare
scalp, and rub in with the finger tips
for few minutes, until the scalp alb
serbs it. Go over the entire head in
this same manner.
A few days massage with Partisan
Sage will destroy the germs that cause
the dandruff to form. The scalp be-
comes healthy, the hair will grow bet
ter and show more life and vitality
and you need never be troubled by
dandruff again, Faded, dull or life
less hair is quickly restored to beauty
by this simple process. which is alb
solutely harmless to hair and scalp, as
1t contains no poisonous wood alcohol
and will not stain the hair or make
1t greasy.
Partisan Sage can be obtained
from II. C. Kennedy and druggists
everywhere. 1t is not expensive.
