How to Judge a
Woman by Her Hair

There are always the weIl-known
and semi-humolous methods. such
as saying brunetes are quick-tem-
pered. But there is real common sense
in just noticing whether the hair is
well kept to judge a woman's neatness.
II you are one 2 the few who try to
make the most Of your hair. remember
that it is not advisable to wash the
hair with any cleanser made for all
purposes, but always use some good
preparation made expressly for sham
pooling You can enjoy the very best
by getting some canthros from your
druggist and dissolving a teaspoonruI
in cup of hot water when your sham
poo is all ready. After its use the
hair dries rapidly with Uniform color.
Dandruff excess oil and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear. Your
hair viii be so fluffy that it will look
much heavier than it is. Its lustre and
softness viii also delight you, while
the stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth--Adv.
