WHY SOCIETY WOMEN WASH
THEIR OWN HAIR

They do. not because it is a fad.
but because they wish to obtain the
greatest possible hair beauty and BIO
sure they are not using anything
harmful. They have found that in
washing the hair 1t is never wise to
use a makeshift, but Is always adj
visable to use a preparation made
for sha mpooinG only. Many of our
friends say they get the best results
from simple homemade canthrox
mixture. You can use this at q
cost of about 3 cents a shampoo by
getting some cahthrox from your
druggist and dissolving a teaspoon
ful In a cup OF hot water. This
makes enough shampoo LIQUID TO
apply to all the hair instead OF inst
the top OF tho head, as with most
preparations. Dandrufr, excess oil
and dirt are dissolved and entirety
disappear in the rinsing water.
Yonr hair will be SO fury that II
