Convalescence is sometimes merely
apparent, not real, and especially is
this true after such diseases as pneu-

make it real and rapid, there is no 9TH

as Hoods Sarsaparilla.

RExAu "ss" HA!R TONIC

The famous Rexall "93' Hair
Tonic is composed in chief OF
Resorcin, Beta Naphthol and
Pilocarpin.
Resorcin is one of the latest
and most effective germ-killers
discovered by science, and in
connection wit 3eta Naphthol,
which is both germicidal and
antiseptic, a combination is
formed which not only destroys
the germs which rob the hair OF
its nutriment, but creates a
clean and healthy condition Of
the scalp, which prevents the
lodgment and development Of
new germs.
Pilocarpin is a well-known
agent for restoring the hair -
its natural color, where the loss
of color has been due to a dis
ease of the scalp. 1t is not a
coloring matter or dye-it pro
duces its effect by stimulating
the scalp and hair follicles to
health and active life.
This com bination Of cur
atives mixed with alcohol as 4
stimulant, perfects the most &
fective remedy for hair and
scalp troubles known to-day.

derstood public opinion, IS blamed for the
distressing position in which Mr.

offic:ate in the church.
