The sun w«a sotting in all his splenders, as the train drew near the town.

AYER'S Hair Vigor restores, with. tlio gloss and liveliness of youth, faded or gray hair to a natural; rich brown color, or deep black, as may bo desired. By its use light or red hair may be darkened, tliin, hair thickened, and baldness often, though not always, cured. It. checks falling of the hair, aud, stimu­ lates a weak and sickly growth to vigor. It prevents and cures scurf aud daudrulT, and heals nearly every disease peculiar to the •calp. As a Ladies' Hair Dressing, the VIGOR is unequalled; it contains neither oil nor dye, renders the hair soft, glossy, and silken in appearance, and imparts a delicate^ agreeable, aud lasting jierfume. „ MR. C. P. BnirHF.ii writes from Kirby, ©., Ju'i/ lsec': " Last fall my hair commenced fading out, and in a short time 1 became nearly bald. 1 used part of a bottle of AvKti's HAIR VIGOR, which stopped the fall­ ing of the hair, and started a new growth. X Lave now a full head of hair growing vigor­ ously, and am convinced thiit. hut lor the use of your preparation 1 should have been entirely bald." J. W. BOYTEK, proprietor of the 9feArthur (Ohio) Enquirer, says : "AYER'S lUlll VIGOR |s a most excelU'ift |>reparation for the hair. 1 speak'"Of it from my own experience. Its use promotes the growth of new hair, and makes it glossy and soft. The VIGOR is also a sure euro for d:iiulruff. Not within my knowledge has the preparation ever failed to give entire satisfaction." Mr. AKORS FAinnAiRX, leader of the Celebrated " Fairbairn Family" of Scottish Vocalists, writes from Ifostmi, Mass., f 'eb. 6, 1SS0 : '• Kver since my hair began to give sil­ very evidence of the change which tiefeting time procureth, I have used AVKlt's liAIR VIGOR, and so havo be«n able to maintain an appearance of youthfulness -- a matter of considerable consequence to ministers, ora­ tors, actors, and in fact everyone who lives ill the eyes of tho public." MRS. O. A. PRRCROTT, writing from IR Elm Sf., fhtrM^trii, Mass.. Apnl 14, Iss.', says: •' Two vears ago altout two-thirds of my hair came o'if. It thinned very rapidly, and 1 was fast, growing hi Id. On using Ay Kit's HAIR VlG (R tho falling stepped nnd a new growth commenced, and in about a mj>nth my head was completely covered v illi short hair. It has eoininutvl to grow, and is r>ow as pood as before it fell. 1 regularly use.l bill OIK- bottle Of the VIGOR, but now uso it occasionally as * dressing." "We have hundreds of similar testimonials to the efficacy of Ann's HAIR VIGOR. It needs but a trial to convince the most skeptlas/ cal of its value. PREPARED BY •DP .J.C.Ayer&Co., Lowell, Mass.
