A very nicely perfumed Hairdressing, called THE MEXICAN HAIR RE NEWED, now being sold by most Che mists and perfumers througout the coun try, at 3s. 6d. per bottle, is fast super ceding all the old restorers and dyes for the purpose of changing grey or white



hair to its natural origin.il color, for i will positively restore the hair in ever case of greyness to its original color, with out dyeing it or leaving that offensive smel which most of the hair preparations of tin day do. This preparation has never beei known to fail in restoring the hair to it: natural color and gloss in from eight tc twelve days. It promotes growth anc prevents the hair falling out, eradicating dandruff, and leaving the scalp in a clean, healthy condition. It imparts peculiar 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 con tain any coloring matter or offensive substance whatever. Hence it does not soil the hands, the scalp, or oven 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.” It may be had of any respectable Chemist, Perfumer, or Dealer in toilet articles in the kingdom, at 3s. fid. per bottle.—Prepared by HENRY C.
