HAIR RESTORATIVE.

WYE call the attention Of all, old and young,
w to this wonderful preparation which turns
back to its original color gray hair-coyers tho
head of the bald with luxuriant growth--re-
moves the dandruf, itching and all cutaneors
eruptions-c causes a continual flow Of the natural
fluids; and hence, if used AS a regular dressing
for the hair, will keep its color and preserve it
from falling to extreme old ago in all its natural
beauty. We call, thenupon the bald, the gray or
the diseased in scalp, to use IL; and surely tho
young win not, as they value the flowing locks,
or the witching curl, ever be without it. It's
praise is upon the tongue Of thousands.

SIR: In consequence of having hair for several
years past not only gray, but perfectly white,
have cut il short, and worn caps to hide it from
view; but some three months since was induced
to use your Hair Restorative, and must, in JUS
tieo, say that its effects were almost miraculous;
for it has changed it gradually to all its former
splendor as to color, and left it so soft and glossy
as to be more soft and glossy than it ever was,
when under the influence of the finest oil.
earnestly. therefore, recommend 1t to every lady
as decidedly the best preparation for toilet use Of
any In the world. BETSY SMITH.
