Before using it I wasa man of seventy. My hair has now at- tained its original color. You can recommend it to the world without tue least fear, as my case was one of the worst kind Yours respeetfully, DAN’L N. MURPHY. CaRuyte, Ill., June 27, 1958. Ihave used Prof Q J.

My- hair was becoming, as 1 thought, prematurely gray; but by the use of the ‘‘ Restorative’’ it bas resuined its original color, and, I have no doubt, permanently so. SIDNEY BREESE &x-Senator United States. HAIR RESTORATIVE —Inourcolumns to- day will be found Prof. Wood’s advertisement of the above article, to which we call attention. What it has done, we have witnessed upon sev- eral of owr acquaintanees in St. Louis. air once gray met our view, black or brown as the ease might be, being the color of early manhood; and as fine and glossy as silk, and that without any other application than the Restorative. If it has done this upon others, will it not do the same for any of our readers whose ‘‘ frosty prows’’ once like the ‘‘ raven locks’ of Lothiel chief, if they will try it. We think so.—Jacksen ville Constitutional, Ost. 5, 1853. THE GREATEST DISCOVERY OF THE AGE—It seldom occurs that we notice, under any eircumstances, patent medicines, restora tives, or anything of the kind, for we have a pre- judiee against most of them. But eando- com- sear us to invite attention to the advertisement cf ‘rofessor Wood’s Hair Restorative. We are too juvenile to require anything of the kind, butsome instances of its use have eome to our knowledge which almost assures us that it is a sovereign remedy against the hair becoming prematurely gray. Itis not a ‘‘ Hair Dye,’’ but upon its ap- Plication, as directed, the effeet is produced upon the skin, which brings out the original colored hair, without stiffness. and gives it a glossy and natural appearance. We have seen persons who have med t, and are much pleased with it. Ex- amine the adyertisement —Missour: Republican O. J.
