Every year increases the POPULAR
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
KEEP, fully up to its high standard;
anG it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandrufl, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. BY its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create new growth, except in
extreme old age. It is the most eco
nomical HAZE DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. y. a. Hayes, MD,
State Assayor of Massachusetts, says,
