MOVIE ACTRESSES AND
Their HAIR

Did It ever occur to you that every
movie actress you have seen has love
ly hair, while the most popular count
their curls as their chief beauty? In
fact, many are leading ladies just be-
cause of their attractive locks. Inquiry
among them discloses the fact that
they bring out all the natural beauty
of their hair by careful shampooing,
not with any soap or makeshift, but
with simple mixture made by put
ting a teaspoonful OF cznthrox
(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 il is
easy to apply it to all the hair in
stead OF just the top of the head.
After its use, the hair dries rapidly,
with uniform color. Dandruff, ex-
cess oil and dirt are dissolved and
entirely disappear. The hair is so
fluffy that If looks much heavier
than il is, while its luster and soft
ness Ia delightful-AAx
