TODAY'S BEAUTY HINT

1t is not necessary to shampoo
your hair so frequently if it is en-
tirely and properly cleansed each
time by the use of a really good
shampoo. The easiest to use and
quickest drying shampoo that we can
recommend to our readers is one that
brings out all the natural beauty of
the hair and may be enjoyed at very
little expense, by dissolving a tea
spoonful of Canthrox. which can be
,obtained from any druggist, in a cup
of hot water. This makes a full cup
of shampoo liquid, enough so it is
easy to apply it to all the hair in
stead of just to, the top of the head.
This. when rubbed into the scalp and
onto every strand of hair, chemically
dissolves all impurities. 1t is very
soothing and cooling in it's action,
as well as beneficial to both scalp
and hair. After rinsing out the lather
so created, you will find the scalp is
fresh, clean and free from dandruff
while the hair dries quickly and even
ly, developing a bright lustre and a
soft fluffiness that makes it seem
very heavy.-Adv.
