How to Be Rid of
Dangerous Dandruff

If you have dandruff you must get
rid of it quick-it's positively danger
GUS and will surely ruin your hair if
you don t.
Dandruffy heads mean faded, brittle,
gray, seraggly hair that viii not grow
then you are bald and nothing can help
you.
The only sure way to abolish dandruff
for good is to destroy the germ that
causes it. To do this quickly, surely,
and safely and at little expense, there
is nothing so effective as Partisan sage,
which you can get from Wilfred F.
Root and good druggists everywhere. It
is guaranteed to Danish dandruff, stop
itching scalp and falling hair, and pro-
mote a new growth, or the cost, small
as it is, will be refunded.
Partisan sage is a scientific prepara-
ton that supplies all hair needs-an
antiseptic liquid, neither sticky nor
greasy, easy to apply, and delicately
perfumed.-Adv.
