Dandruf1y Heads f,

II YOU want plenty of thick, beautiful,
glossy. silky hair, do by all means get rid
OF dandruff, for II will starve your hair
and ruin IL il YOU don t.
II doesn't do much good to try to brush
or wash IL out The only sure way to get
rid OF dandruff is to dissolve it, then you
destroy II entirely. To do this, get about
four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon !;
apply IT at night when retiring; use enough
60 molsten the scalp and rub it m 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 dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop, and your
hair will look and feel hundred times
better. You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. Ii is inexpensive and four
ounces rs all you will need, no matter how
much dandruff you have. This simple
remedy never fails.
