Alkali in Shampoos
Bad For Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much 'alkali, which is very
injurious, as it dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsified
and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap
and beats anything else all to pieces.
You can get Mulsified at any drug
store, and a few ounces will last the
whole family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about teaspoonful is
all that is required. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather.

easily. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and is soft. fresh looking,
bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to han
die. Besides. it loosens and takes out
every particle of dust, dirt and dan
druff. Be sure your druggist gives
you Mulsified.-Adv.
