DYEING.

I am happy to add my testimony to the gre&
value of the “London Hair Color Restorer,’
three bottles of which restored my Hair, which
was very gray, to its original dark color, and the
hue appears to be permanent. I am satisfied that
the preparation is nothing like a dye, but operates
upon the secretions. It is also a beautiful Hair
dressing. I purchased the first bottle from Mr.
Garrigues, Druggist, Tenth and Coates streets,
who ean also testify my hair was very gray, when
I commenced its use.

ever taken.
