Hair Atade Beautiful
Beautiful hair, thick, fluffy, lustrous
and absolutely free from dandrulf is
not so much a gift of nature as a
matter of care and proper nourish
ment. Hair is like a plant—it will
not grow healthy and beautiful un
less it has attention and proper nutri
ment.
Parisian Sage, daintily perfumed
and easily a : plied, tones up and in
vigorates the roots of the hair and
furnishes the necessary nourishment
to not only save and beautify the
hair but also stimulate It to grow
long, heavy, soft, fluffy and radiant
with life.
When used frequently and rubbed
into the scalp, it will simply work
wonders. Just one application stops
itching head, removes dandruff and
cleanses the hair of all dust and ex
cessive oil.
Since Parisian Sage, which can be
obtained from T. G, Howard’s or at
any drug or toilet counter, never dis
appoints, it is no longer necessary
for any woman to bo humiliated be
cause of thin, streaky, faded, lifeless
or unattractive hair and as you
know, pretty l air, more than any
thing else, helps you to retaiu a
youthful appearance.
