of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We can
assure our old patrons that it is kept
fully up to its high standard; and it
is the only reliable and perfected prep
aration for restoring Gray OR FADED
HAIR to It's youthful color, making it
soft, lustrous, and silkcn. The scalp,
by its use, becomes white and clean.
It removes all eruptions and dandrUf,
and, by its tonic properties, prevents
the hair from falling out, as it stimu-
lates and nourishes the hair-glands.
BY It's use, Che hair grows thicker and
stronger. In badness, 1t restores the
capillary glands to their normal vigory
and viii create a new growth, except
in extreme old age. It is the most
economical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications, and
gives the hair . splendid, glossy APP
pearance. A. a. Hayes, MD, State
Assayer Of Massachusetts, says, "The
constituents are pure, and carefully
selected for excellent quality; and l
