PROF WOOD Having experienced the magic
effect Of yOur Hair Restorative, drop you this
upon the subject. About two years ago my hair
commenced falling oft and turning gray / was
fast becoming bald. met a friend who had used
your restorative and spoke so highly of its viz
tues, was induced to try it, although had but
little faith as had before tried so many other ro
medies. commenced using your remedies in
January last. A few applications fastened NV
hair firmly. 1t began to Fill up, grow out and
turn back to its former color (blaek.) AT this
time it is fully restored to its original color health
and appearance, and Ieheerfully recommend its
use to all. ID. HOES.

SIR: In consequence Of having hair for several
years past, not only gray, but perfectly white |
have cut it short aud wOrE caps to hide it from
view; but some three months since was induced
to use your Hair Restorative, and must, in ips-
tice say that its effects were almost miraculous:
for it has changed it gradually to all its former
spendor 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 it to every lady
asdecidedy the best preparation for toilet use Of
any in the world. BETSY SMITH.
