Hair is by far the most conspicuous
thing about US and is probably the
most easily damaged BY bad or care

in hair washing, We will have virtually
no hair troubles An especially fine
shampoo for this weather, one that
brings out all the natural beauty of the
hair, that dissolves and entirely re
moves all dandruf, excess oil and dirt,
can easily be used at trifling expense
by simply dissolving a tessPoonful of
canthrox. (Which you can get at any
druggists) in a cup of hot water This
makes a full cup OF shampoo liquid,
enough so it is easy to apply il TO all
the hair instead Of Just the top of the
head. This chemically dissolves all
impurities and creates, soothing. COOL
