PARTISAN SAGE FOR WOMEN.

Madam: Do you want an abundance
of lustrous hair with no dandruff or
germs?
Before you finish one bottle of de-
lightful PARTISAN Sage hair tonic,
falling hair will cease; scalp itch will
be but a memory and every particle
of dandruff will vanish.
Besides this your hair will be free
from dandruff germs, and PARTISAN
Sage will so nourish the hair roots
that the hair itself will become full of
life and natures own radiant beauty.
PARTISAN Sage is not a dye-it
does not contain dangerous lead or
any other poisonous ingredient. For
your own protection ask for PARIS
IAN Sage and request your dealer not
to give you any preparation contain.
