A Sure Way To
End Dandruff

There is one sure way that has
never failed to remove dandruff 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), ap-
ply 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 dissolve and entirely de-
stroy every single sign and trace Of
it, no matter how much dandruff
you may have.
You will find all itching and dig
ging of the scalp will stop instantly,
and your hair will be fluffy, lus-
trous, glossy, silky and soft, and look
and feel hundred times better.
