DOES YOUR HAIR SHOW YOUR AGE? I Of course white hair and gray al ways suggests age, but often fadeO, dull arid brittle locks make us thinl. even young people are old, while a lustrous, heavy head of hair is natur ally associated with youthfulness and forces us to credit its owner with being young. Perfectly healthy hair is always beautifying and Is very easily acquired if proper care is given to the hair and scalp. In washing the hair it is not advisable to use a makeshift, but always use a prepara tion made for shampooing only. You can enjoy the best that is known for about three cents a shampoo by get ting a package of canthrox from your • druggist; dissolve a teaspoonful in a cup of hot water and your shampoo is ready. After its use the hair dries rapidly with uniform color. Dan druff, excess oil and dirt are dis solved 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 stimulated scalp gains the health which insures hair growth.— Advertisement. i Prana Syphon Bottles Make Soda Water and Other Car bonitcd Beverages at Home.
