Have Dandruff
There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This destroys
it entirely. To do this, just get about
four ounces of plain, ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retiring;
use enough to moisten the scalp and
rub it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning most if not all of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
, You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop in
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. It is inexpensive, and four oun
ces is all you will need. This simple
remedy has never been known to tail

had been for three years, with, in

"There may be other medicines as
good as Tanlac for troubles like I

my first few doses of Tanlac. ', My
appetite gradually came back and I
soon got so I could eat most any

from nervousness and dizziness, stom-

backache, kidney derangements and
who are in a general run-down condi
