making these watch cases are covered ny

to popular prejudice against "plated" goods,
but gradually the public learned that the

How depressing it is to see acres of
trees cut down in the midst of a noble
forest. How saddening it is to see that
thin spot in the midst of your otherwise
abundant hair. Stop it at once by the
use of Parker's Hair Balsam. For &C
tual efficiency this famous article stands
at the head of its class. Elegant for the
toilet, delicious in Odor, and restores the
original color to gray or faded hair.
Economical, as slight, occasional appli-
cation keeps the hair and scalp in perfect
order.
