Grows Hair
on Bald Heads
Resoraln Is one of the latest and
most effective germ-killers discovered
by science, and In connection witn
Beta Naphthol, also a powerful antisep
tic, a combination Is formed which de
stroys the germs which rob the hair
of Its nutriment, and thus creates a
clean and healthy condition of the
scalp, whloh prevents the development
of new germs.
Pilocarpine Is a well-known agent
for restoring the hair to Its natural
color, where the loss of color has been
due to a disease. Yet it Is not a color
ing matter or dye.
The famous Rexall "93" Hair Tonic
Is chiefly composed of Resorcln. Beta
Naphthol and Pilocarpine, combined
with pure alcohol because of Its cleans
ing and antiseptic qualities. It makes
the scalp healthy, nourishes the hair,
revitalises the roots, supplies hair
nourishment and stimulates a new
growth.
We want you to try a lew ootties ot
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic on our personal
marantee that the trial will not cost
you a penny if it does not give you
absolute satisfaction. That's proof of
our faith In this remedy and It should
Indisputably demonstrate that we know
what we are talking about when we
say that Rexall "S" Hair Tonio will
grow hair on bald heads, exoept of
course where baldness has been of such
long duration that the roots of the
hair are entirely dead, the follicles
closed and grown over, and the scalp
Is glased.
Remember, we are basing our state
ments upon what has already been ac
complished by the use of Rexsll "93"
Hair Tonic, and we have the right to
assume that what It has done for hun
dreds of others it will do for you. In
any event you cannot lose anything by
giving it a trial on our iioerai guaran
