TRAIN YOUR HAIR AS AN

no class of people devotes as
much time to beauty as do ac
tresscs, and no class must be more
careful TO retain and develop their
charms. Inquiry develops the in
formation that in hair care they
find 1t dangerous to shampoo with
any makcshjftr hair cleanser. The
ma jority say that to have the best
hair wash and scalp sti,nUlator at
a cost OF about three cents, ono
need only get a. package of Can
throy from your druggist; dissolve
q teaspoonful in cup of hot
water and your shampoo is ready.
This makes enough shampoo liquid
to apply il to all the hair instead
OF just the top of the head. After
its use the hair dries rapidly. with
uniform color. Dandruff. excess oil
and dirt are quickly dissolved and
entirely disappear when you rinse
the hair. After this your hair will
be so fluffy It Will look much
heavier than II is. It's luster and
softness will delight YOU, while the
stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth.-Adv.
