Left a Formula
Behind Him to
Restore GRAY
Hairs.

Marshall Bros has secured the agen-
cy of the DIR. Mott preparations for the
hair. DR.. Mott, who spent the most of
his life as a practicing physician in the
city of New York. gave all of his spare
moments to the study of the hair and
scalp. In our opinion he probably knew
more about the hair and scalp and the
pathology of badness than any man
before or since his time. The problems
of restoring color to gray hair. arrest
ing falling hair, the cure of dandruff
diseases of the scalp, the prevention of
premature badness, etc, were ones
that he attacked with all the fire and
fervor of youth, equipped as we'll with
profound scientific knowledge of the
subject. He left to posterity an un-
failing means of restoring to gray hair
color, and the means of arresting alb
solutely premature badness, and in
many cases of badness restoring the
hair. although he has left among his
papers a statement that hereditary
badness is not a disease, therefore not
durable, but that contributory badness,
or badness that is the result of indis-
erection or faulty living can be in most
cases cured, or benefited greatly.
Hessig- Ellis, of Memphis, Tenn,
known throughout the United States,
and especially throughout the south. as
a firm of wholesale and manufacturing
chemists, control the distribution of the
Mott Hair Restorer and the Mott Tonic
for the civilized world.
They say that they have arranged for
a gratituous distribution of one-half
million bottles of the Hair Restorer,
and that a certain quantity has been
left for distribution with Marshall
Bros, Topeka, and B. Wheldon Drug
Co, Emporia, Kan. Any gray-haired
person can have a full sized package
by merely calling and asking for same.
One trial is deemed sufficient to show
beyond all cavil just what the results
will be. Marshall Bros. and B. WHEEL
don Drug Co. agrees that if six bot
ties do not restore the gray hair of
anyone to a desirable color to refund
the money paid for them. the first bot
tie can be had for nothing so long as
the supply lasts.
.HeSSig-Ellis assert that when the
work of Transforming the gray hair is
accomplished, that no specialist, barber
or physician can tell If it is the work
of art, nature or medication, and that
the truth. For dandruff, itching scalp,
ETC., 1t will be found invaluable; pro-
notes as we'll the growth of the hair;
and gives it a fine. silken, glossy APP
pearance. For sale by Marshall Bros,

poria, Kan.
