HARRISBURGWOMEN
MIGHT TELL
HAIR SECRET
A great many Harrisburg women,
who have an abundance of beautiful
hair, know about a remarkable hair
formula which every woman ought to
know about. Fov a number of vears
'.lan-isburg druggists have been con
tinually called upon to mix tills form
ula. Undoubtedly the use of this form
ula is largely the secret of the beauty
and luxuriance of the hair of very
many Harrlsburg women—and men
too. The formula consists of six
ounces of bay rum, two ounces lavona
de composee, and one-half drachm of
menthol crystals. Some people add a
teaspoonful of perfume. A New York
ihysician and a New York chemist
were recent!" consulted regarding the
efficacy of this mixture and they both
say they know of nothing better to de
stroy dandruff, stimulate hair growth
cleanse and invigorate the scalp, stop'
falling hair, and to make the hair
Huffy and xive it lustre. Any druggist
can furnish you the Ingredients which
you can mix at home or will mix them
for you. Apply to the scalp night and
morning and rub in with the finger
tips.—Advertisement. •
