-A Wig
You don't sec very many
wigs nowadays. People have
been educated how to care
for the hair. That's one
reason. Another is, Aycr's
Hair Vigor makes wigs un
necessary. Nothing its equal
for feeding the hair.
'For many years my hair has come
out so fast every winter that I had
to wear a wig. I tried Ayer'a Hair
Vigor. It stopped the falling, and made
my hair grow so that last winter I did
not use my wig at all."
