A woman's Charm


Beautiful hair, fluffy, lustrous.
abundant and free from dandruff, is
one of woman's greatest charms
it's her main delight-yet many who
would be most attractive but for
their streaked, thin and lifeless hair,
think there is no remedy and that
pretty hair is a gift of nature.
Beautiful hair is always a matter of
care and proper nourishment of the
hair roots.
If your hair has been neglected, is
thin. faded. dry or too oily, Partisan
Sage, delicately perfumed liquid,
well rubbed into the scalp and
brushed through the hair will work
wonders-you win be surprised and
delighted with the first application
not only will your hair appear twice
as abundant-soft, fluffy and radi-
ant with life = but really doubly
beautiful.
Partisan Sage supplies all hair and
scalp needs. 1t surely removes dan
druff and cleanses the hair of all dust
and excess oil. 1t is a harmless,
inexpensive and scientific tonic that
never fails to act as a real and last
ing benefit to the hair and scalp.
Delighted users pronounce Partisan
Sage, which is easily obtained from
Fl. c. Kennedy or any drug counter,
the best, most pleasant and invig-
Grating tonic made.-Adv.
