Sure Way To Get
Rid OF Dandruff

There is one sure way that never fails
to remove dandruff completely and that
is to dissolve it. This destroys it en-
tirely. To do this, just get about four
ounces of plain, ordinary liquid arvon /;
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
dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop instantly.
and your hair will be fluffy lustrous.
glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel
a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. 1t is inexpensive, and four
ounces is all you will need. This simple
remedy has never been known to fail.
