Makes Hair Grow Some time ago I read In your paoer a formula for a preparation which J was claimed to destroy tho dandruff germ ana to strongly stimulate the hair growth. In spite of the fact that 1 had already tried many prepa rations without benefit, and uiy hair was thin and falling out very fast, I decided to give your formula a trial. Accordingly, I got my chemist to put up e ounces or Bay ,Kum, z ounces of La von a de Compose and Vi dram of Menthol Crystals, and applied It regularly every, morning ana night, rubbing carefully into the scalp with the finger tips. Much to my delight and astonishment the intolerable itch Intr ceased with the first application. the dandruff disappeared, the falling out of the hair stopped completely, and bv the time I had used four bottles I bad a finer, longer and more luxuriant growth of hair than I had ever had before. I have since recom mended this formula to many of "my friends -with - eauallv wonderful re sults. I understand that this formula! can be prepared by all chemists and I druggists, Vnd I strongly advise ail j your readers who have not yet given it a trial to ao so lmmeoiateiy.- T H. P IMPORTANT On inqulrr we learn that druggists everywhere keep this formula put up ready for use under the name or Lavona Hair Tonic, and give with every bottle their signed Dersonal aruarantee of satisfaction or money back genuine evidence .of Its marvelous properties.
