FamO Is a Medicine
Your Hair Needs It Daily

FAMO should be used as you use your
tooth paste every morning.
You use FAMO to kill seborrhea, Just
as you cleanse your teeth to ward off
pyorrhea.
One is just as persistent, just as
deadly in its effects, as the other
pyorrhea killing the teeth and sebor-
rhea destroying the hair
The action of FAMO is medicinal
because it is a medicine medicine
for the scalp and hair.
To be sure, one application Of FAMO
does frequently almost always, in
fact clear the head of the deadly
seborrhea germ.
So does a good medicated tooth paste
cleanse the mouth
But, skip single day with the tooth
brush, and what happens2
Germs begin again to work on your
teeth
The same process applies to the hair
With FAMO you cleanse your scalp
of seborrhea germs.
They are gone, your head 10 clean,
and you fancy yourself safe.
But you are not safe. The germ of
seborrhea will surely return--unless
you continue to use FAMO.
Once week, or twice a week, is not
enough.
Every day your head should have an
application of FAMO. Every morn
ing, as regularly and as faithfully as
you brush your teeth.
You can drive the seborrhea germ
out of your hair with FAMO.
You can keep it out by continuing the
use of FAMO.
FAMO is sold at all toilet goods
counters, in two sizes 81 and
IS cents.
Seborrhea is the medical name for
a norbidiy increased flow from
the sebaceous glands of the scalp.
The seborrhean excretion forms
in scales or flakes and is COM
monty known as dandruf.
