Oak Grove, S. C. Juti" 24, IfioS.
Pnor. O. J. WOOD: Pear Sir:—Your Hair Ke
storative is rapidly gaining popularity in this com
niunity. 1 iiave had occasion to lay prejudice aside
and give your iiair liestoretive a perfect test:—
During the year 1854, I was so unfortunate as to
he thrown from my sulky against a rock, near the
roadside, from which my head received a raort
terrible blow; causing a great deal of irritation,
which communicated to the braiD and external
surface of the bead, from the effects of which my
hair was finally destroyed over the entire surface
of the head. From the time I first discovered it*
dropping, however, up to the time of its total dis
appearance, 1 employed everything I could think
of", being a professional num myself, and, as 1
thought, understanding the nature of the disease,
but was final! > defeated in every prescription ad
vanced.
Tnese and no other circumstances induced n:e to
resort to your wotthy Hair Restorative, which 1
have every reason to believe, produced a very hap
py result : two months after tbt- first application. 1
had as beautiful a bead of young hair as i ever saw,
for which I. certainly owe you my most sincere
t banks. Rest assured, dear sir, I shall recommend
your remedy to all inquirers; moreover, I shall aso
my influence, which I flatter myself to say, is not
a little.
You can publish this if you think proper.
Yours, very respectfully.

Dear Sir:-—I feel it my duty as well as my pleas
ure, to state to you the following circumstance,
which you can use at you think proper. A gentle
man of this place, (a lawyer,) has been biid ever
since bis early youth , so much so, that he was
compelled to wear a wig. He was induced to use
a bottle of your "Hair Reslotative," which he
like i very much ; and after using some two or
three bottles his hair grew out quite luxuriantly,
and he now lias a handsome head of hair. The
gentl. man's nania is Bradford, and as he is very
well known in our adjoining counties, many persons
can testify to the truth of this statement; 1 give it
to you at the request of Mr. Bradford. You can
sell a great deal of your Hair Restorative in this
ai.d the adjoining counties if you have the proper
agents. Youis, fcc.,
THOMPSON StJRGHNOR.
DR. WOOD : Dear Sir : Permit me to express the
obligations I am under for the entire restoration of
my hair to its original color; about the time of niy
arrival in the United States it was rapidly becoming
gray, but upon the application of your 'llair Re
storative 5 ' it sortn recovered its original hue. 1
consider your Restorative as a very wonderful in.
vention. quite efficacious as well as agreeable.

The Restorative is put up in bottles of three
sizes, viz; large, medium and small holds J a pint,
and retails for one dollar per bottle; the medium
holds at least twenty per cent, more in porportiou
than the small, retails for two dollars j>er bottle;
the largo holds a quart, 40 per ceut more in pro
portion, and retails for three dollars per bottle.
