 CERTIFICATE.
 This is to certify that, about eighteen months ago, I commenced using STERLING $ AMBRosIA. My hair was short, thin, and rap idly falling out. I had tried many Hair Tonics, Invigorators. &c., without receiving any benefit. Soon after using tke Ambrosia my hair ceased falling out, and commenced growing So rapidly as to astonish me. Now my hair is thick, soft and glossy, and is five feet and four inches in length when let dow n to the floor. This wonderful result attribute solely to the use of STERLING s AMBRos1A, as since I commenced using it I have applied nothing else to my hair.
 Mrs. L. A. BROWN,
 No. 439 Broadway, New York We advise young persons, whose hair is be- ginning to fall out, to take warning in time, and save their hair, by using the Ambrosia To these who have already lost their hair. the free use of the Ambrosia will surely restore it. as it has done for thousands.
 pr. Sterling's Ambrosia is a stimulating oily extract of Roots, Barks and Herbs It will cure all diseases of the scalp, and itching of the head; entirely eradicates dandruff pre- vents the hair from falling out, or from turn ing prematurely gray, causing it to grow thick and long. It is entirely different from all other preparations, and can be relied on.
 It is well known fact to thousands in the city of New York that this is the only article yet discovered that will cure the Disease of the Scalp and cause the Hair to grow.
