Volume alter volume might lie given trom all parts ol the world and irotn trie most mteiii gent to prove that it is a perfect RESTORATIVE; but read the circular ar.d you cannot doubt; read also the lollowing The Haik.People have lor centuries been afflicted with bald heads, and the only remedy, heretofore known, has been those abominable wigs. By a recent discovery of Prot. Wood these articles are being last dispensed with; hut a great many persons still patroni/.' them, bej cause they have been so often imposed upon by Hair Tomes ot different kinds, lo all such persons we earnestly make the request, that they will try once jgam, for in WOOD'S RK! STOKATIY K there is no such thing as tail.. We know of a lady w ho w as bald, w ho used the article a short time, and her head is now cover- ed completely with the tiniest and most beauti!lul curls imaginable. We know ot numerous cases where hair was rapidly tailing out. which it restored in greater perfection than it ever had been beiore. It .dsn w it tiont doubt one ot the he*! atti. cit;s lor keeping tht- hair in good condition, making it sou and glossy, removing dandruff, and lias proved itsell the greatest enemy to all tae ills that hair is heir to. It is the duty oi every one to improve their personal appearance though some may il.ti-r in regard to the ways of doing it; but every one will admit that a beautiful head ot hair, either in man or woman, is an object much to he !e sired, and there are no means that should be let't untried to obtain such a consideration..

Volume alter volume might lie given tromall parts ol the world and irotn trie most mteiiigent to prove that it is a perfect RESTORATIVE;but read the circular ar.d you cannotdoubt; read also the lollowingThe Haik.People have lor centuries been

afflicted with bald heads, and the only remedy,heretofore known, has been those abominablewigs. By a recent discovery of Prot. Woodthese articles are being last dispensed with; huta great many persons still patroni/.' them, bejcause they have been so often imposed upon byHair Tomes ot different kinds, lo all suchpersons we earnestly make the request, thatthey will try once jgam, for in WOOD'S RK!STOKATIY K there is no such thing as tail..We know of a lady w ho w as bald, w ho used thearticle a short time, and her head is now cover-

ed completely with the tiniest and most beauti!lulcurls imaginable. We know ot numerouscases where hair was rapidly tailing out. whichit restored in greater perfection than it everhad been beiore.

It i« .dsn w it tiont doubt one ot the he*! atti.

cit;s lor keeping tht- hair in good condition,making it sou and glossy, removing dandruff,and lias proved itsell the greatest enemy to alltae ills that hair is heir to.

It is the duty oi every one to improve theirpersonal appearance though some may il.ti-r inregard to the ways of doing it; but every onewill admit that a beautiful head ot hair, eitherin man or woman, is an object much to he !esired, and there are no means that should belet't untried to obtain such a consideration..H'owiuu'it .itlv'r'ate.
