No matter how careful you may be of your hair —how often or how faithfully you may shampoo or brush it—the hair cannot attain the thick glossy brilliance Nature intended for all men, women and children so long as the dandruff germ is sapping the strength and vitality of the hair roots. Frequent brushing of the hair and a shampoo once every two or three weeks are both valuable aids to gaining hair beauty, but they cannot destroy thf! dandruff germ. So far as known the only way to destroy this germ is to rub into the scalp twice a day a mixture prepared by mixing 3oz. bay rum with %-dram menthol crystals and 1 oz, Lavona de Composee. As this preparation not only destroys the dandruff germ, but is also a truly marvellous hair-grower, it should be applied only where hair is desired. Any chemist can prepare the above formula, or you can procure the ingredients and mix them at home; but you must use it regularly; and be sure to brush your hair frequently and give it an occasional shampoo. Avoid the frequent use of hot curlingtongs, as they tend to make the hair dull and lifeless. ,
