The Easiest Way
To End Dandruf

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff complete
" and that is 10 dissolve it. This
destroys it entirely. To do this just
get about four ounces Of plain. or
binary liquid arvon: apply il at
night when retiring; use enough to
mOisten the scalp and rub il in
gently with the finger tips.
BY morning, most if not all, Of
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications will
completely dissolve and entirely de-
stroy every single sign and trace Of
it. no matter how much dandruff
YOU may have.
You will find. too, that all Itch
ing and digging of the scalp will
stop instantly, and your hair will
be fluffy. lustrous, glossy, silky and
soft. and look and feel d hundred
times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. II is inexpensive and
four ounces is all you will need. This
simple remedy has never been
known TO fail. Adv.
