This is an age of inquiry and people are
beginning to realize the magnitude Of the
evil caused by the use Of injurious compounds
Tor the hair, which are prepared and forced
into market, by men who are not practical
physicians, and who may not be aware Of the
injury they are producing. These prepara-
tions have been analysed by competent chem
lists, and shown to contain poisonous sub
stances, causing Nervousness, Headache, Par
alysis, and often fatal results.
In contrast with such injurious articles, we
call attention to the Hair Restorer prepared
by DR.. R. Greene, Superintendent of the Bos-
ton Medical Institute, who has been sue
cessful physician in Boston for more than q
quarter Of century. DR.. Greene uses Veg
etable Remedies only, and can assure the pub

claimed for it, without possibility of injury.

The use of this Hair Restorer for twenty

dandruff, prevents the hair from falling of,
preserves its natural color, restores Il when
prematurely gray, renders it soft and glossy,
