Movie Actresses
and Their Hair

Did II ever occur TO you that every
movie actress you have seen has
lovely hair, while the most popular
count their curls as their chief
beauty? In fact. (this is a secret)
many are leading ladies just because
Of their attractive locks. Inquiry
among them discloses the fact that
they bring out all the natural beauty
OF their hair by careful shampooing,
not with any soap or makeshlft. but
with simple mixture which they
make up for themselves by putting a
teaspoonful OF canthroN. (which they
get from the druggisU. in a cup OF
hot water and applying this instead
Of soap. After its use their hair
dries rapidly. with uniform color.
Dandruft, excess oil and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear The
hair is so nuffy that Il looks much
heavier than II Is. Its lustre and soft
ness Is delightful. while the stimu-
lated scalp gains the health which
insures hair growth.
