T0DAY's AID TO BEAUTY

Hair is by far the most conspicu-
Gus thing about us and is prob
ably the most easily damaged by
bad or careless treatment. If we
are very careful in hair washing,
we will have virtually no hair
troubles. An especially fine sham
poo for this weather. one that
brings out all the natural beauty
of the hair, that dissolves and en-
tirely removes all dandruff, excess
oil and dirt, can easily be used at
trifiing expense by simply dissolv-
ing teaspoonful of canthrox
(Which you can get at any drug
gists) in a cup of hot water This
makes a full cup of shampoo
liquid enough so it is easy to ap-
ply 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 a
fuffiness which makes it seem
much heavier than it is. After a
canthroX shampoo. arranging the
hair is a pleasure-Adv.
