Combing Won't Rid
Hair OF pandruff

The only sure way to get rid Of dand-
ruff is to dissolve it, then you destroy it
entirely. To do this, get about four
ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply
it at night when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it in gently
with the finger tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning most,
if not all, of your dandruff wSl be gone,
and three or four more applications will
completely dissolve and entirely destroy
every single sign and trace of it, no
matter how much dandruff you may
have
You viii find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop at once,
and your hair will be fluffy 1ustrous.
hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. 1t is inexpensive and never fails
to do the work.
