It is a medicinal preparation, and, at
the same time, an clegaut and cleanly toilet
article. Its action upon the scalp is bealth-
f ul. It nourishes the glands whichsupport
the hair, and causes thin, dry hair to be
come thick, soft, and vigorous. It restores
the color of youth to locks which have
become faded with age or disease; and
relieves and cures itching, caused by
humor3 of the scalp. Dr. George Gray,
Nashua, X. H., writes: "It gives me
pleasure to testify to the wonderful effects
produced by IlaUV Vegetable Sicilian Hair
Keuewer, as obser-cd by me in very many

only four bottles of the Eenewer, and am
