HELPFUL HINTS ON HAIR
HEALTH.
Scalp and Hair Troubles Generally
Caused by CareIessness.

ScaIo and Hair Troubles Generally
Caused by CareIessness.
Dandruff is a contagious disease caus-
ed by a microbe which also produces
badness. Never use a comb or brush
belonging to some one else. NO matter
how clearly the owner may be, tnese
articles may be infected with microbes,
which will infect your scalp. 1t is far
easier to catch hair microbes than II Is
TO get rid of them, and single stroke
of an infected comb or brush may well
lead to badness. Never try on any
body else's hat. Many a hat-band Is
a resting place for microbes.
If you happen to be troubled with
dandruff, itching scalp, falling halr or
badness, we have a remedy which we
believe will completely relieve these
troubles. We are so sure of this that
we offer it to you with the understand
ing that it will cost you nothing for the
trial if it does not produce the results
we claim. This remedy is called Rex
all "93' Hair Tonic. We honestly be-
lieye it to be the most scientific rem
edy for scalp and hair troubles, and
we know of nothing else that equals
it for effectiveness, because of the re-
suits it has produced in thousands OF
cases.
Rexall '93" Hair Tonic is devised to
Danish dandruff, restore natural color
when it's loss has been brought about
by disease, and make the hair natural
" silky, soft and glossy. 1t does this
because it stimulates the hair follicles,
DESTROYS the germ matter, and brings
about a free, healthy circulation OF
blood, which nourishes the hair roots,
causing them to tighten and grow new
hair. We want everybody who has
any trouble with hair or scalp to know
that we think that Rexall 1913" Hair
Tonic is the best hair tonic and restor-
ative in existence, and no one should
scott at or doubt this statement until
they have put our claims to fair test,
with the understanding that they pay
Ms nothing for the remedy If it does
not give full and complete satisfaction
in every particular. Two sizes, 90
cents and s100. Remember, you
can obtain Rexall Remedies only
