louuging idly on a street corner, or In
some saloon playing muggins,'
wastes in the course Of a year three

which if applied to study, of useful en-
ploymsnt, would fit him for almost any

debtor side of the time wasted, ten
cents for a cigar, ten cents for lager,
until he piles up enough to have fur
nished him with all the leading periods

lounging, and street corner loafng, is
not recreation, by any means. 1t il

by its use- Noth;ng can restore the
hair where the follicles are destroyed,
or the glands atrophicd and decayed.
But such as remain can be saved for
usefulness by this application. Instead
of fouling the hair with pasty sedi-

Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent badness. Free
from those deleterious substances which
make some preparations dangerous and
injurious to the hair, the Vigor can
only benefit but not harm it. If wanted
