gloss and freshness 0f goatth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair checked, and badness often, though not always, cured by its use Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are de- stroyed, or the glands atrophied and decayed; but such as remain can be saved by this applica tion, and stimu- lated into activity, so that new growth of hair is p,eoduced. Instead of fouling the hair with q pasty sedi- ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from turning gray or falling off, and consequently prevent badness. The restoration of vitality it gives to the scalp arrests and prevents the forma- tion of dandrud, which is often so un- cleanly and offensive. Free from those deleterious substances which make some preparations dangerous and inju- rious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted merely for a HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, and yet lasts long on the hair, giving it a rich, glossy lustre, and grateful perfume.
