fire and vigOr, and have given it up at

wigmaker. If l have used one hair re-

was warranted to not only prevent bald
ness but to restore to bald heads their
sometime hirsute glory. Look at me.
See what a remarkable growth and

changed in twenty-five years. Why?"
The hair dresser seized his soft brown
hair with both hands, and with a viciOu:
