SEASONABLE BEAUTY AID

We find you can bring out the beauty of your hair to Its very best advantage by washing It with ranthrox. It makes a very simple. Inexpensive shampoo, which cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly of all the dandruff, dirt and excess oil, leaving a wonderfully clean, wholesome feeling. After Us use you will find that the hair dries quickly and evenly, is never streaked tn appearance and is always bright, sott and fluffy j so fluffy, in fact, that 1t looks more nbundant than It is, and so soft that arranging it becomes a pleasure. Just use a teaspoonful of eanthrox, which you can get from any good druggist's, dissolve It In a enp 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 tho head.— Advertisement.
