PROFESSOR WOOD'S If AIR RESTORATIVE. —We call the attention of all, old and young, to this wonderful preparation, which turns back to its original color, gray hair—covers tire head of the bald with a luxuriant growth—removes the dand ruff, itching, and all cutaneous eruptions—causes a continual flow of the natural fluids; and hence, is used as a regular dressing for the hair will preserve its color, and keep it from falling to extreme old age, iu its natural beauty. We call then upon tho bald the gray, or diseased in scalp, to use it; and surely the joung will not, as they value the flowing locks, or the witching curl, ever be without it. Its praise is upon the tongue of thousands. ' The agent for Frof. Wood's Hair Restcrative In New Haven, received the following letter in regard to the Restorative, a few weeks siucc : DEEP RIVER, COSX., July 23, 1850. Mr. Leavenworth—Sir: I have been troubled with dandruff or scurf on my bead for more than a year, my hair began to come out, scurf and hair together. I saw In a New Haven paper abouj " Wood's Hair Restorative" as a cure. I called at your store.ou the Ist of April last, and purchased one bottle to fry it, and I found to my satisfaction it was the tiling, it removed the scurf" and new hair began to grow ; it is now two or three inches at length ichere it u-as all off. I have great faith in it. I wish you to send inelwo 1 Kittles more by Mr. Post, the bearer of this. I don't know as any of the kind is used in this place, you may have A market for many bottles after it is known here. Yours with respect, EUFUS PRATT. PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 9,1856. PROF. WOOD —Dear Sir: INJUR Hair Restorative is proving itself beneficial to me. The front, nud also the hack part of niy head almost lost its covering—in fact BAID. 1 have used but two half pint bottles of your Restorative, and now the top of my bead is well studded with a promising crop of young hair, and tlie front is aiso receiving ita benefit. 1 have tried other preparations without any benefit whatever. I think front my own per sonal recommendation I tan induce many others to tiy it. - , Yours lespectfullv, D.'K. THOMAS, M. D. No. 464 Vine street. VINCENSKS, lA., June 22, 1853. PROF. O. J. WOOD: As you are about to manufacture and vend your recently discovered Hair Restorative, I will state, for whomsoever it may concern, that I have used it and kn#wn others to use it—that I have, for several years, been in the habit of using other Hair Restorative, and that I find yours vastly superior to any other 1 know - It entirely cleanses the head of dandruff, and with one month's proper use will restore any person's hair to the original youthful color and texture, giving it a healthy, soft and glossy appearance ; and all this, without discolering the bands that apply it, or the dress ou which it drops. I would, therefore, recommend its use to every one desirous of having a fine color and texture to hair. Respectfully yours, WILSON KING. '). J.
