A Toilet Luxury.

Where the hair is brittle, dry, harsh,
weak, or thin, the use of AYER's HAIR
VIGoR speedily renders it plant, soft,
glossy, and stimulates it to rich and
luxurious growth: it also keeps the scalp
free from dandruff. and affords perfect
assurance against the hair falling out or
turning gray. No other dressing is so
clean or has such delicate and delightful
perfume. Without it the toilet cannot be
complete.
Ladies who have once made trial Of
AYERS HAIR VIGoR never after prefer
any other hair-dressing, and many of them
voluntarily offer such testimonials as the
following, from Miss KATE ROSE, Inger-
soil, Ont, who writes:
"Whie keeping my head clear of Dandruff,
and preventing Scald Head, il has also caused
my hair TO grow luxuriantly, resulting in my
now possessing hair forty-two inches long, and
as thick as any one could wish it."
