CRABBH, ‘ ae aeegabec ‘ | Be 2 Commission Merchants, rac ceive: eiarin Beauty Is desired and admired by all. Among the things which may best be done to enhance personal beauty is the daily use of Ayer’s Hair Vigor. No matter what the color of the hair, this prepa- ration gives it a lus- tre and pliancy that adds greatly to its charm. Should the hair be thin, harsh, dry, or turning gray, Ayer’s Hair Vigor will restore the color, bring ont a new growth, and render the old soft and shiny. For keeping the scalp clean, cool, and healthy, there is no better preparation in the market. ‘*T am free to confess that a trial of Ayer’s Hair Vigor has convinced me that it is a genuine article. Its use has not only caused the hair of my wife and daughter to be Abundant and Glossy, but it has given my rather stunted mua- tache a respectable length and appear- ance.’’—R. Britton, Oakland, Ohio. “My hair was coming out (without any assistance from my wife, either). I tried Ayer’s Hair Vigor, using only one bottle, and I now have as fine a head of hair as any one could wish for.” ~R. T. Schmittou, Dickson, Tenn. ‘*T have used Aver’s Hair Vigor in my family for a number of years, and re- gard .it as the best hair preparation I know of. It keeps the scalp clean, the hair soft and lively, and preserves the original color. My wife has used it for a long time with most satisfactory re- sults.” — Benjamin M. Johnson, M. D., Thomas Hill, Mo. ** My hair was becoming harsh and dry, but after using half a bottle of Ayer's Hair Vigor it grew black and glossy. I cannot express the joy and gratitude [ feel.”’ — Mabe! C.
