Beautiful Women of the 400 who
have Luxuriant Hair.

In gay New York, where women
get their ideas from their foreign
sisters, the hair tonic calledParisian
Sage is in great demand.
Partisan Sage is the discovery of
a well known scientist, and he
claims most emphatically that it is
the only hair preparation that will
kill the persistent dandruff germs.
L. M. Wood guarantees Partisan
Sage to cure dandruff in two weeks,
to stop falling hair; to make dull,
lifeless and colorless hair beautiful
and luxuriant; to cure all itching
diseases of the scalp, or money
