Birls Try this! When combing
and brushing your hair, just moisten
your hair brush with a little Dan
derine" and brush it through your
hair. The effect is startling! You
can dress your hair Immediately
and it will appear twice as thick
and heavy, an abundance Of gleamy,
wavy hair, sparkling with life, in
comparably soft, fresh, youthful.
Besides identifying the hair, a 35-
cent. bottle of refreshing, fragrant
'Danderine" from any drug or toilet
counter will do wonders, particularly
if the hair is dry, thin, brittle, faded
or streaked with gray from constant
curling and waving, which burn the
color, lustre and very life from any
Woman's hair.
"Danderine' acts on the hair like
fresh showers of rain and sunshine
act on vegetation. 1t goes right to
the roots, invigorates, nourishes and
strengthens them, stopping falling
hair and helping the hair to grow
thick, healthy and luxuriant.-Ad-
vertisement.
