You ought to know this lovely
New York City girl because her
blonde beauty has been displayed
on so many magazine covers.
She's Marion Dahl, IS ClarkSon
ST., Brooklyn, Artists say she's a
"type!" They fairly rave over her
delicate flesh tintS and the golden
glory of her hair!
Miss Dahl says: every one I
know, tells me how wonderful my
hair looks, nowadays. I don't feel
like it's a personal compliment,
however; take it more as COM
pliment to the method I'm using
to care for it. It's the rage among
girls here in New York. All you
do is put a little Danderine on
your brush each time you use it.
My hair was wiry and hard to
keep in place, but Danderine
makes it soft and easy to dress
and holds it like I arrange it, for
hours! My scalp fairly tingles
with vigor after I use it, and it
keeps my head so clean don't
need to shampoo half SO often. Tt
brings out the color of my hair
marvelously, making it fairly
gliSten!"
Every application of Danderine
tones and refresheS your scalp. It
removes the oily film from each
strand and makes dull, stringy
hair gleany, soft and easily man
ageable. It diSSolveS dandruff
and keeps it out of your hair. It
isn't sticky or oily. It doesn't
show. All drug stores have the
generous 35c bottles.
