SAVE YOUR HAIR
AND BEAUTlFY IT
With DANDERINE
Spend few cents /! Dandruf dis
appears and hair stops
coming out
Try this! Hair gets beautiful,
wavy and thick in
few moments

If you care for heavy hair, that
glistens with beauty and is radiant
with life; has an incompatible soft
ness and is fluffy and lustrous, try
Danderine.
Just one application doubles the
beauty of your hair, besides 1t i'm
mediately dissolves every particle of
dandruff; you cannot have nice,
heavy, healthy hair IL you have
dandruff. This destructive scurf robs
the hair of its lustre, its strength
and its very life, and IL not over
come it produces a feverishness and
itching of tho scalp: the hair roots
famish, loosen and die; then the hair
falls out fast.
If your hair has been neglected
and is thin, faded, dry. scraggy or
too oily, get a small bottle of
Knowlton's Danderine at any drug
store or toilet counter; apply little
as directed and ten minutes after
you will say this was the best in
vestment you ever made.
We sincerely believe, regardless of
everything else advertised, that IL
you desire soft, lustrous, beautiful
hair and lots of it-no o'dandruff-no
itching scalp and no more falling
hair-you must use Knowiton's Dam
derine IL eventually-why not now?
