The easiest to use and quickest drying shampoo that we can recommend to our readers may be prepared very cheaply by dissolv- ing a teaspoonful of canthrox, obtain- ed from your druggist, in a cup of hot water. This rubbed into the scalp creates a thick lather, soothing and cooling in its action, as well as beneficial to scalp and hair. After rinsing the scalp is fresh and clean, while the hair dries quickly and even- ly, developing a bright luster and a soft fluffiness that makes it seem very heavy.—Advertisement. ,f U.S. National Bank Bldg.
