Hair Often Ruined
By Careless Washing

Soap should be used very carefully.
IL you want to keep your hair looking
it's best. Many soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much free
alkali. This dries the scalp, makes
the hair brittle, and ruins 1t.
The best thing for steady use is
Mulsif1ed cocoanut oil shampoo
(Which is pure and greaseless), and Is
better than anything else you can
use.
Two or three teaspoonfuls Of Null
sified in a cup or glass with little
warm water is sufficient to cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Sim
ply moisten the hair with water and
rub the Mulsified in. 1t makes an
abundance OF rich, creamy lather.
which rinses out easily. removing
every particle of dust. dirt, dandruff
and excess Oil. The hair dries quick
ly and evenly. and it leaves the
scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky. bright, lustrous. fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut Oil
shampoo at any pharmacy. it is very
cheap, and a few ounces will supply
every member of the family for
months. Be sure your druggist gives
you Mulsified.-Adv
