FOR RESTORING GRAY HAIR

Color when faded or gray. 1t stimulates the nutr-
tive organs to healthy activity, and preserves both
the hair and its beauty. Thus brashy, weak or
sickly hair becomes glossy pliable and strengthen

color Its operation is sure and harmless. Itcures
dandruG, heals all humors, and keeps the scalp
cool, clean and soft under which conditions, dis
eases of the scalp are impossible.
