We Blended
Palm and Olive Oils
To beauty your hair

lather which softens the scalp and
reaches every root and hair cell.
This lather loosens the dandruf

Prevents Badness
This thorough removal of dan

is most necessary, as even the ac-
emulation on healthy scalps Injuries
the hair.
The dry, oily scales clog the roots
of the hair, preventing proper nutri-
ton. Soon the hair begins to fall
out. Ordinary washing has little eff
feet, often seeming to make the con-
dition worse.
The blend of palm and olive oils
you get in Palmolive softens and
penetrates the scales, ~loosening the

Silky texture and

Such scientific shampooing is the
basis of beauty, for It keeps both
hair and scalp in perfect health
It stimulates circulation, which
carries proper nourishment to your
hair. It regulates the minute oil
glands which give your hair gloss

Palmolive is neither brittle nor oily,
but soft, glossy and silky.

For a large section Of the American

answered here touching the second
epiphany of Irving Berlin and Hassard

as follows, Ts the new Music Box

From the remotest seats in the gall
lexy came outcries Of approval, and
even the more expensive $11 latitude,
where sat the somber Raymond Hitch
cock and others hard to please, were
walked to ecstasy.
Hassard Short sets his pictures in
a lavish frame, and Sam Harris as
leading maecenas of the theatre, .tands
for an expensive bill of freight. Even
the curtain is broeade of rhinestones
which spare the lights and shower
them rightly tinted in the auditorium,
In pictorioal conception and in fashion
of figure and dance and hue the new
revue is even superior to it's recently
departed predecessor. The level Of
comedy is maintained. Perhaps only
in the item of music is there any
falling off. Not that there lacked per-
suasive sound, but from the refresh
ing fountains of harmony gushed no
al al, u
Music" Yet no accusing spirit will
fly up to heaven and ask the Record
ing Angel to set that down against
Irving Berlin.
Your Music Box catalogue will
specify twenty-f our numbers. only
few of which can be enumerated here.
Grace La Rue gives voice and charm
ing figure to some half dozen of the
more stately advertisements. And
lanky Charlotte Greenwood weaves her
long members through mirth- owing
accompaniment to songs about her
gifted legs. Furthermore, there is
tuneful endeavor by John Steel, the
tenor. Bobby Clark and Paul McCul-

assisted by the Rash brothers and VIII

None of the numbers Is thrown at
you. For each there is process Of
building up an appropriate climate and
surroundings. For instance, Mr.. Berlin
and Mr.. Short wanted to show some
living lyrics, including Tapestry
After Frangonard," "Jade," "The
Harpsichord," "The Wrestlers," and
Chinese Porcelain. These pictures
were conceived and presented as OBJ
