Millions of men and women know how Danderine helps stop falling hair and dissolves the worst crust of dandruff; how it changes dull, lustreless, e hair into hair that is soft, lpnkllng. vigorous. With Danderine, it is so easy to “train” a child’s hair; to keep it orderly, sparkling, clean. Dan- derine accentuates the natural curl of a child’s hair. A girl’s “waves” look more natural when “set” with it. And they stay in longer. Use Danderine with children to overcome the evils of frequent washing. It puts back into hair| and scalp the natural oils re-| moved by soap and water. Danderine isn't sticky or eily; doesn’t show. It is no trouble to use. Just put a little on the brush each time the hair is u'ru.xfed. That will keep the scalp healthy and encourage the growth of long, silky and abundant hair. Five million bottles used a {eat is proof of Danderine’s effectiveness.
