You Can't Brush Or
Wash Out Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid of dand-
ruff is to dissolve it, then you destroy it
entirely. To do this, get about four
ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it
at night when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it in gently
with the finger tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning most
if not all of your dandruf will be gone,
and three or four more applications will
completely. dissolve and entirely destroy.
every single sign and trace of it, no mat
ter how much dandruf you may have
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop at once,
and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel
hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. 1t is inexpensive and never fails
to do the work.

HAIR ON FACE
What CAUSES It

Nature does not produce coarse
bristly growths of superfluous hair
They are caused by the unwise use
of so-called hair removers, which
merely remove hair from the sur
face of the skin, just like a razor.
The only common-sense way to re-
move hair Is to attack 1t under
skin. DsMiracls, the original san
itary liquid. operates on this prin-
ciple. 1t alone contains certain
ingredients which give II tho power
to rob hair of it's vitality. 1t does
this by absorption.
DeMiracle works equally well for
removing hair from face, neok. arms,
underarms or limbs to prevent it
from showing through stockings,
Insist on the genuine DeMiracle.
