I HOW TO J DG A OMAN
' BY KE HAIR
There is real common sense in
just noticing whether the hair is
well kept to judge of a woman's
neatness, or good taste. If yoa are
one of the few who try to make the
most of your hair, remember that
it is not advisable to wash the hair
with any cleanser made .for all pur
poses, but always use some good
shampoo. You can enjoy the very
best by getting some Canthrox
from your druggist, dissolve a tea
spotmful in a cup of hot water. This
makes a.full cup of shampoo liquid,
enough" so it is easy to apply it to
all the hair instead of just the top
of the head. Dandruff, excess oil,
and dirt are dissolved and entirely
disappear. Your hair will be so
fluffy that it will look much heavier
than it is. Its luster and softness
will also delight you, while the stim
ulated scalp gains the health which
insures hair growth. Adv.
