For restoring to Gray Hair its
natural Vitality and Color.

cotor, acitd the gloss and freshness Of
youth. Thin hair is thickened, fall
ing hair checked, and badness often,
though not always, cured by its
use. Nothing can restore the hair
where the follicles are destroyed, or
the glands atrophied and dccayed;
but such as remain can be saved by
this application, and stimulated into
activity, so that a new growth Of
hair is produced. Instead of fouling
the hair with pasty sediment, It
will keep it clean and vigorous. It's
occasional use will present 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 formation of dandruf, which is
often SO uncleanly and offensive.
Free from those deleterious sub
stances which make some prepara-
tons dangerous, and injurious 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. Contain
ing neither oil nor dye, it does not
soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it a rich,
glossy lustre, and grateful perfume.
