Women Delighted— All .Surprised by
Quick Action of Parisian Sage
It's amazing how much pretty hair
docs towards producing the appear
ance of youth and beauty so much de
sired by women of all ages. It's real
ly a simple matter for any woman to
merit this praise since radiant hair
is only a matter of care.
When your hair becomes faded, dry,
streaked and when it falls
out badly and new hair cannot grow,
the roots must be revitalized and
properly nourished. To do this quick
ly safely and at little expense, there
is nothing so effective as Parisian
Sage (liquid form) which you can get
at Kennedy's Drug Store, or at any
drug store or toilet counter.
It's guaranteed to abolish dandruff,
stop scalp itch and falling hair, and
promote a new growth or money re
funded. It's in great demand by dis
criminating women because It. makes
the hair so soft, fluffy, lustrous, easy
to arrange attractively, and appear
"heavier than It really is.
A massage with Parisian Sage is a
real delight—easy to use. not sticky
or greasy, and delicately perfumed—
an antiseptlcc liquid, free from dan
gerous ingredients, and guaranteed
not to color the hair or scalp. If you
want good looking hair and plenty of
it, use Parisian Sage. Don't delay—
begin to-night—a little attention now
insures beautiful hair for years to
