A dressing which 4s at. once agreeable, healthy, avd effectual for preserving the . hair. Faded or gray hair is soon restored to its original color i Al with the gloss and ease freshness of youth. ‘Thin hair is thickened, falling hair checked, and baldness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follieles are destroyed, or the glands atrophicd and decayed. But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fotling the hair with a pasty sediment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. 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 and injurious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. It wanted merely for a HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neitber oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, aud yet lasts Jong ou the hair, giving it a rich glossy Instre and a‘grateful perfume. Prepared by Dr, J.
