SAYS The st. Louis MO- Democrat: Below,
we publish a letter to DR.. Wood, of this city, from
q gentleman in Maine, which speaks glowingly of
the superior merits of his hair tonic. Such evil
dence must have its effect, when coming from q
reliable source. If certificates are guarantees of
truth, the Dr.. needs no %encomiums, nor useless
pufery from the press:
BATH, MAINE, Jan. Goth, 1856.
Prot. O. j.. Wood d Co.:
GENTLEMEN Having my attention called a
few months since to the highly beneficial effects
of your hair restorative, I was induced to make
application of it upon my own hair, which had be.
come quite gray, probably enc third white; my
whiskers were of the same character. Some three
months since I procured a bottle of your hair re-
storative, and used it. I soon found it was prov
ing what I had wished. I used it about twice q
week. I have since procured another bottle, of
which I have used sometime. l can now certify to
the world that the gray or white hair has totally
disappeared, both on my head and face, and my
hair has now resumed its natural color, and / be-
lieve more soft and glossy than it has been before
for twenty five years. am now sixty years cid
my good wife at the age of ffty-two, has used it
with same effect.
The above notice I deem due to you for your
value BILE discovery. I am assured that whoever
win rightly use, as per directions, will not have
j occasion to contradict my statements am a cit
izen of this city and a resident here for the last
fifteen years, and am known to nearly every one
here and adjoining towns. Any use you may
make of the above, with my name attach ed, is at
your service, as / wish to preserve the beauties of
ma ure In others as well as myself. am truly
yours, A.. @. RAYMOND.
