as for the last 15 years. Its sale is steadily increasing in ladia, the Straits, and Japan. It possesses all the qualities of a Bair Oll or Pomade without their Stinki- ness. It Induces a healthy action of the
ecalp and nourishes the Hair. Dandruff never appears whilst it is in use. It contains none but the best ingredients and the greatest care is takon In the compounding. When the Hair falls off after fever or any other sickness this Wash will surely prove of the greatest value. From its great nourishing powers on the follicles it may in time cause Hair to return to its natural color; it however, does not contain a par- tiole of any dyeing Ingredient. Using if constantly will most certainly prevent the Hair falling. It is cleanly in use, the smallest quantity sufficing. It has no bedi. ment therefore requires no shaking.
