Simple Way To
End Dandruff

There is one sure way that has never
failed to remove dandrhff at once, and
that is to dissolve it, then you destroy it
entirely. To do this, just get about four
ounces of plain, common liquid arvon
from any drug store (this is all you will
need), apply it at night when retiring,
use enough to moisten the scalp and rub
it 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 dis
solve, and entirely Destroy every single
sign and trace of it, no matter how much
dandruf you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
