But what of the woman whose hair begins to fade, maybe as early as 25 or 30, the woman in the midst of the active business world V "We don’t want old women!” She feels it all around her.

Made here in Atlanta, in our own laboratory, and we guaran tee it to be pure and positively non-injurious to either hair or scalp. It makes the hair soft and keeps it in fine condition, and no ' one can detect that a hair stain has been used. It is not a vulgar bleach or artificial coloring. It ; is a natural restorative that puts . back life and color into the hair. | No one need hesitate to use it. < Non-sticky, and does not stain skin ! or scalp Constance, Sally and Frances Spald ing.
