For restoring hair upon bald heads from

forcing growth Of hair upon the face. it has
no equal. 1t will force the beard to grow up
on the smoothest face in from five to eight
weeks, or hair upon bald heads in from two
TO three months. A few ignorant practcol-
ers have asserted that there is nothing that
will force or hasten the growthof the hair OF
beard. Their assertions are false. as thOus-
ands of living witnesses (from their own eX-
perience) can bear witness. But many will
say, how are we to distinguish the genuine
from the spurious? 1t certainly is difficult, as
nine-tenths of the different Preparations adj
vertised for the hair and beard are entirely
worthless. and you may have already thrown
away large amounts in their purchase. To
such we would say, try the Reparator Cappi-
Ii; it will cost you nothing unless it fully
comes up to our representations. If your
Druggist does not keep it, send us 81 and we
will forward it. post paid together with re-
