WEALTH OF HAIR
Parisian Sage Makes Thin Lifeiess
 Hair Soft and Abundant.

Beautiful hair, fluffy, lustrous, abundant and free from dandruff, IS o..e of woman's greatest charms-its S her main delight-yet so many of the fair sex who would be most attractive but for their streaked, thin and life less hair. so on thinking there Is no remedy. Quickly put aside such thoughts. Beautiful hair is largely matter of a little care and attention. Parisian Sage rubbed into the scalp and applied to the hair with a sponge or cloth will work wonders. Do It daily for a week, then occasionally and you will be surprised and de- lighted with the result-not only Will the hair become abundant. soft, f1uify, radiant with life. but really douply beautiful.
 Parisian Sage supplies hair and scalp needs. It surely removes dandruH with one application and cleanses the hair of all dirt and excessive oil. II is not sticky or greasy, is delicateiy perfuned, and contains nothing to ln- jure the hair or scalp. All drug ana toilet counters sell it in fifty cent bot ties. Look for the trade mark-I Ihe Girl with the Auburn Hair
 Delighted users pronounce Parlslan Sage the best, most pleasant and ln- vigoratlng hair tonic made. Try at least one bottle. Lee & Osgood Co. will refund the money if you are not satisfied.
