It's GroWing!

The shoulder-length bob is tax
ing a real place among fashions OF
the hour for the younger set. In
many high schools and colleges,
more than half the girls are let
ting their hair grow to the new
length. This style as worn by New
York City girls is shown in the
above photograph of Miss Edna
Rabbe, 1925 Avenue G, Brooklyn.
Miss Rabbe says: II am certainly
delighted that I let my hair grow to
the new length now that 7 have
found a way to keep it easily man
ageable and attractive. My hair is
ever SO much fluffier and more Wig
rooUs than it has been for a long
time. And it Is free from all traces
Of dandruff, now. I attribute its
improvement to the method ! am
using to care for it. It's SO popu-
lar among the girls in my set. All
we do is put a little Danderine on
our brushes whenever we use them.
This makes my hair SO easy to
dress any way / want it and holds
it in place as I arrange it. DAN
derine sOOthes my scalp and keeps
it and my hair SO clean. / don't
need to shampoo more than twice a
month, now. And all my friends
admire the way it makes my hair
SO bright and sparkling"
Danderine does more to bring out
the natural color, the CLEAN and
lustre Of your hair, than shampoos
or brilliantine. IT removes that
oily film from it, gives it new life
and lUstre. 1t cleanses and invig-
crates the scalp; helps overcome
dandruff. Danderine is delightful
ly fragranCed: isn't oily, doesn't
show. All drug stores have the
generous 35c bottles.
