Ayer’s Hair Vigor, For restoring Gray Hair to its natural Vitality and Color. A dressing which is at ouce agreenble, healthy, aud cflectual for preserving the hair. Jaded or gray hair is soon restored to ils original color with the gloss and freshness of youth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair checked, and baldness often, though not always, eured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands atrophied and decayed. But sneh as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sediment, it will keep it clean and vigorons. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from turning gray or falling off, and consequently prevent baldness. Free from those deleterious substances which make some preparations dangerous aud injurious to the hair, the Vigor can ouly benefit but not harm it. If wanted merely for a HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white eambrié, and yet lasts long ou the hair, giving it a rieh glossy lustre and a grateful perfume. Prepared by Dr. J. C.
