MOVIE ACTRESSES and.
THEIR HAIR

Dit it ever occur to you that every
movie actress you have seen has
lovely hair, while the most popular
count eurls as their chief beauty?
In fact, many are leading ladies just
because of their attractive locks. In
quiry among them discloses the fact
that they bring out all the natural
beauty of their hair by careful sham
pooing, not with any soap or make
shift, but with simple mixture by
putting a teaspoonful of canthrox
(which they get from the druggist)
in cup Of hot water and applying
this instead of soap. This full CUP
of shampoo liquid is enough, so it is
easy to apply it to all the hair instead
of just the top of the head. After its
use. the hair dries rapidly with uni
form color. Dandruff, excess oil and
dirt are dissolved and entirely disap-
pear. The hair is so fluffy that il
looks much heavier than it is, while
its luster and softness Is delightful.-
