This preparation has never been? known to fail in restoring the hair to its natural color and gloss in from eight to: twelve days. It promotes growth and. prevents the hair falling out, eradicating, dandruff, and leaving the scalp in a clean, healthy condition. It imparts pecuha* ’ vitality to the roots of the hair, restoring _ it to its youthful freshness and vigor. / Daily applications of this preparation for./ a week or two will surely restore faded. ; grey, or white hair to its natural color and richness. It is not a dye, nor does it cpn-, tain any coloring matter or offensive substance whatever. Hence it does not soil the hands, the scalp, or even white linen, but produces the color within'the ; substance of the hair. Read the follow ing from Mr. Nathan Berry, Chemist..; Walkden : “ One of my customers told me the other day he had had grey hair for thirty-five. years, and after using one "■ bottle of the Mexican Hair Renewer 1, sold him, it was restored to and- kept its natural color. ”j It may be had ' of any ' respectable Chemist, Perfumer, or Dealer t in toilet articles in the kingdom, at 3s. 6d. p«r bottle.—Prepared by HENRY G.
