This skill enables me to look into

MOVIE &C .RESSES AND
THEIR HAIR

Did it ever Occur to you that
every movie actress you have seen
has lovely hair, while the most popu-
lar count their curls as their chief
beauty? In fact, many are leading
ladies just because of their attrac-
tive looks. Inquiry among them dis
closes the fact that they bring out
all the natural beauty of their hair
by careful shampooing, not with any
soap or makeshift, but with a SIM
pie mixture by putting a teaspoon
full of Canthrox (Which they get
from the druggist) in cup of hot
water and applying this instead of
soap. This full cup of shampoo IL
quid 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 uniform col
or, Dandruff, excess oil and dirt are
dissolved and entirely disappear.
The hair is so fluffy that it looks
much heavier than it is, its luster
and softness are delightful.--Adv.
