TODAYS BEAUTY TALK

You can make a delightful shampoo
with very little effort and for a very
trifling cost, II you get from your
druggist a package of canthroX and
dissolve teaspoonful in a cup Of hot
water. Your shampoo is now ready.
Just pour little at a time on the scalp
and rub briskly. This creates an
abundance Of thick. white lather that
thoroughly dissolves and removes the
dandruh, excess oil and dirt. After
rinsing, the hair dries quickly, with q
fluffiness that makes it seem heavier
than ii is, and takes on rich luster
and softness that makes arranging
It a pleasure.-Adv.
