color, aUith 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 decayed /;
but such as remain can be saved by
this application, and stimulated into
activity, so that new growth of
hair is produced. Instead of fouling
the hair with a pasty sediment, it
will keep it clean and vigorous. Its
occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling of,
and consequently prevent badness.
The restoration of vitality it gives
to the scalp arrests and prevents
the formation of dandruff, which is
often so uncleanly and offensive.
Free from those deleterious sub
stances which make some prepara-
tions dangerous, and injurious to the
hair, the Vigor can only benefit, but
not harm it. If wanted merely for
q 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 q rich,
glossy lustre, and q grateful perfume.
