While your birthright ye despise, Sons of God in bondage ye;

Dust begrimed your glory lies, Weep we must who pray for thee.

Lo, for thee His arm is bared, Goodness, mercy crowns thy days ;

From the joathsome pestilence spared Where His due of grateful praise !

W here the vows His love demands? W here the crown and fealty ?

tends thy Maker fore thy hands, Waiting to be crowned by thee.

Futher, give the flooding light, On Thy heart, O Jesus, bear ;

Flair V igor restores, with the gloss and freshness of youth, faded or gray hair to a natural, rich brown color, or deep black, as may be desired, By its use light or red hair may be darkened, thin hair thickened, and baldness often, though not always, cured.

It checks falling of the hair, and stimu- lates a weak and sickly growth to vigor. It prevents and cures scurf and dandruff, and heals nearly every disease peculiar to the scalp. As a Ladies’ Hair Dressing, the Vicor is unequalled; it contains neither oil nor dye, renders the hair soft, glossy, and silken in appearance, and imparts a delicate, agreeable, and lasting perfume.

Mr. C. P. BRICHER writes from Kirby, 0. r July 3, 1882: * Last fall my hair commenced falling out, and in a short time I became nearly bald. I used rt of a bottle of AYER'S HAIR ViGoR, which stopped the fall- ing of the hair, and started a new growth. I have now a full head of hair growing vigor- ously, and am convinced that but for the use of your preparation 1 should have been entirely bald.”

J. W. BowEN, proprietor of the McArthur (Ohio) Enquirer, says : * AYER’S HAIB VIGOR is a 1nost excellent preparation for the hair. I speak of it from my own experience. Its use promotes the growth of new hair, and makes it glossy and soft. The Vigor is also a@ sure cure for dandruff. Not within my knowledge has the preparation ever failed to give entire satisfaction.”

Mr. ANGUS FAIRBAIRN, leader of the celebrated “ Fairbairn Family” of Scottish Vocalists, writes from Boston, Mass., Feb. 6, 1880: ‘Ever since my hair began to give sil- very evidence of the change which fleeting time procureth, I have used AYER’s HAIR Viaor, and so have been able to maintain an appearance of youthfulness —s mattor of considerable consequence to ministers, ora- tors, actors, and in fact every one who lives in the eyes of the public.”

Mrs. 0. A. PRESCOTT, writing from 18 Zim St., Charlestown, Mass., April 4, 1882, says: « Two years ago about two-thirds of my hair came off. It thinned very rapidly, and I was fast growing bald. Ov using AYER’S HAIR Vicor the falling stopped and a new growth commenced, and in about a month my head was completely covered with short hair. It has continued to grow, and is now as good aa before it fell. I regularly used but one bottle of the Vicor, but new use it occasionally as a dressing.”

We have hundreds of similar testimonials to the efficacy of Ayrr’s Hair VIGOR. It e needs but a trial to convince the most skepth ’ cal of its value.
