Certain Ingredients That Really
Promote Hair Growth When
Properly Combined.
Hesorcin is one of Ihe most ef
fective germ deslroyers ever dis
covered by science, ami in con
nection wilh Beta Naplhol, which
is both germicidal and antiseptic,
a combination is formed which
destroys Ihe germs which rob the
hair of ils natural nourishment,
and also creates a clean, healthy
condition of the scalp, which pre
vents I lie development of new
germs.
Pilocarpin, although not a
coloring mallei- or dye, is a well
known ingredient for restoring
the hair to its natural color, when
Ihe loss has been caused by a dis
ease of Ihe scalp.
These ingredients in proper
combination, wilh alcohol added
as a stimulant ami for its well
defined nourishing properties,
perfect perhaps, the most ef
fecliv remedy that is known for
scalp and hair (roubles.
li. i.. i i . .
v e nave a remedy wnicii is
chiefly composed of Ihese in
gredients, in combination with
other extremely mva uahle medi
cinal agents. We guarantee it to
positively cure dandruff and lo
grow hair, even though Ihe scalp
in spots is bare of hair. If there
is an vitality left in the roots, it
will positively cure baldness, or
we will refund your money. If the
scalp has a glazed, shiny appear
ance, it's an indication that bald
ness is permanent, but in other
instances we believe baldness is
curable.
We want, every one troubled
with scalp disease or loss of hair
to try Ilexall "93" Hair Tonic. If
it does not cure dandruff and grow
hair lo the satisfaction of the
user, we will without question or
quibble, relurn every cent paid
us for it. We print this guar
antee on every bottle. It has ef
fected a positive cure in 93 per
cent of cases where pul lo a prac
tical test.
Itexall "73" Hair Tonic is en
tirely unlike, ami we think, in
every particular, heller than any
Ihing else we know of for liie
purpose for which it is pre
scribed. We urge you lo try Ibis
preparation al our entire risk.
Certainly we know of no heller
guarantee to give you. Remember

The funds thus far subscribed
have been voluntary on the part
of the donors, but the committee
expects to call on the citizens and
give them an opportunity lo as
sist in Ihe good cause. The
money will be collected and re
main in the hands of Ihe com
mittee to be used to assist Mrs,
Kaspar to defray expenses until

No doubt the committee will
