Dear Madame take great pleas
ure to inform you what your won
derful hair grower has done for me.
l have tried everything imaginable,
everything | heard of, or that any
one would tell me of, and at last |
gave 1t up as a hopeless case. My
scalp was in terrible condition, the
dandruff was so thick on my scalp,
that when would scrape it off it
would come off in large scales and
there would be water under the
scales After a thorough combing, If
| | combed twice a day / would be
covered with dandruff. On the 31st
day of March, 1910, l heard of Madam
G.. ]. Walkers wonderful hair grow
er for the first time. On April 1st,
1910, | had my first treatment My
hair improved so rapidly that it EN-
couraged me to continue my treat
ment. At the beginning of my treat
ment; my hair was one and one-half
inches long. | was so enthused over
the successful treatment of my hair
that l became an agent for Madame
c. j. Walkers wonderful hair grow
er, and am proud to say that my
hair is at this writing ten inches
long
Words cannot be found that would
give Madame C. ]. Walkers wonder
full discovery too much praise. 1t is
God-send to unfortunate women
who are walking in the rank and
file that | had walked. 1t has helped
JUS financially since 1910. We have
been able to purchase home and
over meet our obligations. Before l
started out as an agent in Madame
Walkers employ, made the regular
working woman's wages, but at this
writing, three years later, average
