TURNING GRAY AND THREATENED WITH BALDNESS The Banger is Averted by Using HAIR VIGOR AVER'S "Xearly forty years ago, after some weeks of sickness, my hair turned gray and began falling out so rapidly that I was threatened with immediate baldness. Hearing Ayer's Hair Vigor highly spoken of," I commenced using this'.prepara- tion, and was so well satisfied with the result that I have never tried any other kind of dressing. It stop ped the hair from falling out, stimu lated a new growth of hair, and kept the scalp free frym dandruff. Only an occasional application is now needed to keep my hair of good, natural color,. I never hesitate t0 recommend any of Ayer's medicines to my friends." Airs. II. M. IIaight, Avoca, Neb. Ayer's Hair Vigor PRFPAKED BY PH. J. C. AYER & CO., LOWELL, MASS., U. S. A.
