LACK-LUSTRE HAIR

LlFfc AND VIGOUR RESTORED ' TREATMENT WITH OIL «. ' Has yoiir hair been worrying you? If it has lost life and lustre, if its vitality seems gone and its colour is bad," you can restore it to life and vigour again if you will give up a month to the following treatment. Most of tho treatment is oil. Buy yourself some very fine oil. You can use almond oil, but olive'oil is just as good. The important thing is that it must be a vegetable oil and not a mineral oil. Pour about two tablespoons into a small bowl and place this in a larger bowl of very hot water so that the oil itself becomes pretty warm. Then part your hair in the usual way and rub on the warm oil generously. Now heat a big bath towel and roll this round your head. Heat another One and roll over it, and let them stay a few minutes. Repeat this again two or three times until the scalp feels hot, for this opens the pores and lets the oil work in. Let the oil remain on all night, or anyhow for several hours, and remove by covering the scalp with an egg before you shampoo. Do ithis twice a week for a month—eight oil baths, eight shampoos in all. You will be amazed at; the improvement in your hair and you should have no trace" of dandruff or scurf on your SCfilp* * Nor is this the entire treatment. You use besides that a stimulating hair tonic, Bomething containing quinine or resoroin or cantharides, since all of these are stimulating and make the hair grow.
