HOW TO JUDGE A WOMAN BY
HER HAIR

There is real common sense in Just
noticing whether the hair is well kept
to judge of a woman's neatness or
good taste. If you are one of the
few who try TO make the most OF
your hair. remember that 1t is not
advisable to wash the hair with any
cleanser made for all purposes. but
always use some good shampoo.
You can enjoy the very best by get
ting some canthrox from your drug
gist dissolve teaspoonful in a cup
of hot water. This makes full cup
of shampoo liquid enough so 1t Is
easy to apply it TO all the hair instead
OF just the top OF the head. Dam
druff. excess oil, and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear. Your
hair will be SO fluffy that it will look
much heavier than it is. Its luster and
softness will also delight you, while
the stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth.
