Ayer's Hair Vigor keeps the hair soft
and pliant, imparts to it the lustre and
freshness of youth, causes it to grow
luxuriantly, eradicates Dandruff, cure3
all scalp diseases, and is the mot clean
ly of all hair preparations.
A YFR'Q Hair Vigor has given ine
r 1 1. 1 1 j perfect satisfaction. I was
nearly bald for six years during -which
time I used many hair preparations, but
without success. Indeed, what little
hair I had was growing thinner, until
I tried Ayer's Hair Vigor. I used two
bottles of the Vigor, and my head is now
well covered with a new growth of hair.

the falling, and restored my hair to its
original color. As a dressing for the
hair, this preparation has no equal.
