Helpful Advice for Care OF the Hair
Worthy the Attention of Every
One Who Would Avoid Dandrun
Itching Scalp, Gray Hair and
BaldneHa.

If your hair is getting thin and you
arc troubled with dandrun or itching
scalp. get about four ounces of Partisan
sage from your druggist. This helps
to prevent badness and grayness and
keeps the scalp clean.
Before going to bed I rub a little
Partisan sage into my scalp" says a
woman whose luxurious. soft and fluffy
hair is greatly admired. This keeps
the hair from falling out and makes it
easy to dress attractively.
A lady visiting friends says: Paris
ian sage is the best hair treatment I
ever used. 1t keeps the scalp free of
dandruf. prevents hair falling and
stops itching scalp"
Every one knows sage is good for
the hair, but be sure to ask your drug
gist for Partisan sage (Giroux's), for
this brand will not stain or streak the
hair and is delicately perfumed-Adv.
