CRYSTAL DISCOVERY: ~. -.
1T affords me much pleasure to bear :testimo-
nv as to the efficacy of your Crystal Discovery.
Some wears since, while in India suffered from
severe fever peculiar to the country. On my
recovering, patch of hair on the left side OF my
head became perfectly white, without at all at
fecting the remainder. 10 remove tals unslghtly
appearance, had recourse to various prepare;
tons both in Europe and in this country but
they all had one great defect-they dyed the
hair black. Now, with your Crystal Discovery
I can get the desired shade-the natura! color OF
nv hair being dark brown. I consider your
Discovery the best preparation L know or
Yours truly,
Now as the fact becomes more patent every
day that the various dirty and filthy preparations
advertised as Reviewers Restoratives, SC, are
but compounds of Sugar of Lead and Sulphur,
and therefore should be Stunned by all who
value their health, it is really n matter Of sur
prise that the demand for NATTANS CRYS-
TAI DISCOVERY, admitted to be perfectly
harmless, and yet accomplish all, and moro, than
the poisonous articles claim to do, should have
increased 80 rapidly. 1t restores the color and
growth of the hair positively in a few days;
strengthens the roots, makes an excellent dress
ing, soiling neither clothes nor scalp; but on the
contrary it gives the scalp a pure and ccanly
look, removing all dandruf and scurf. 1t is the
most economical preparation in use. Put up in.
large bottles, at one dollar.
