ToDAY'S AID TO BEAUTY

Hair is by far the most conspicuous
thing about us and is probably the
most easily damaged by bad or care
less treatment. If we are very care
full in hair washing, we will have
virtually no hair troubles. An espe-
cially fine shampoo for this weather,
one that brings out all the natural
beauty of the hair, that dissolves and
entirely removes all dandruff, excess
oil and dirt, can easily be used at
trifing expense by simply dissolving
teaspoonful Of canthrox (Which you
can get at any druggists) in a cup Of
hot water. This makes full cup Of
shampoo liquid, enough so it is easy
to apply it to all the hair instead
of just the top of the head. This
chemically dissolves all impurities
and creates soothing, cooling lather.
Rinsing leaves the scalp spotlessly
clean, soft and plant, while the hair
takes on the glossy richness of natural
color, also fuffiness which makes it
seem much heavier than it is. After
canthrox shampoo, arranging the
hair is a Observation-Disclosures.
