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? “We don't want old women!" 3i}e feels it all around her. \ Don’t let your hair turn gray. But be careful. Very few hair stains are absolutely pure and harmless. There are some reliabie prepara tions: out ftobinnaire Hair Dye is one. Made here in Atlanta, in our own laboratory, and we guaran tee it to be pure and" positively nen-tnjurious 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 ie 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 N'o woman need have gray hair undesired. But don't pull out the white hairs. Two will grow in im mediately for every one you pull j out. L’se Rohinnaire's Hair Dye S at bnce, and don't let people call s you old.
