THE TIME FOR PROBATION.
The Time For Repairing the Natural
Destruction of Winter Is in the
Spring.

The chill of winter makes it neces-
sary, in the spring, to use something
on the scalp which will have a tonic
effect if you would have and keep
good hair. Chill and cold has the
same effect on the hair and scalp
that it has on other parts Of the per-
son; yet in the spring you take a
spring tonic to get the body in condi-
ton without giving thought to the
hair and scalp. When your hair be-
gins to break and fall out you are
surprised, never thinking that by the
use of a little precaution you could
save your worry and your hair too.
Suppose you give your hair chance
this spring by using Madam P. M.
Dabney's XXth Century Hair Prepar-
ations. XXth Century Shampoo will
not only clean the scalp, but will pre-
pare it for the beneficial processes
of XXth Century Hair Grower and
Pressing Oil. Madam P. NJ. Dabney's
XXth Century Hair Grower rids the
scalp of dandruff, relieves that itchy
condition, produces beautiful growth
of hair and stops it from falling out
and breaking off.
A six weeks treatment Of Madam
P M. Dabney's XXth Century Hair
Preparations sent on receipt Of P. O.
money order for SIPS, or a single
package of XXth Century Hair Crow
