One dose a day, usually one bottle sufficient, just one dollar. All singers, speakers, voice users, children, in fact everybody should use Wright's Antiseptic Katar Balm.

A real one at last. One that invigorates the roots and promotes the restoration of the hair to its original beauty, luxuriance and color. Better than any argument is the restorative itself for you to try. We are only too glad to throw ourselves wholly on the merits of Golden Rule Hair Restorative, so we years ago set aside thousands of dollars to spend on big free sample bottles. If we didn't know that our preparation would do this would be reckless extravagance, but we do know and believe that the quickest way to help you to find it out is to place a bottle of it in your hands. We know the annoyance of having one's hair fall and turn gray perhaps while you are still young. It is the result perhaps of some unusual worrier care but that does not prevent friends and neighbors from the knowing nod that says growing old. Not so, it is only a run-down condition of the roots of the hair just as the body gets run-down. But you should not permit this. It is not necessary in this needless look of age impairs your usefulness and popularity in society and business. Golden Rule Hair Restorative simply invigorates the roots, waking them up, toning them up, rejuvenating them until they are rendered lively and vigorous as in youth. The obvious result is that the growth of the hair is promoted. Hair can starve and wither like any plant that gets its life from its roots. If the roots are vigorous and healthy, the hair is bound to be natural. We want you to accept a large sample bottle with our compliments. We want you to know what a remarkable remedy this is. If you don't need it yourself, get it for some friend. The truth is however that everyone should use Golden Rule Hair Restorative as addressing for the hair to keep it healthy just as you use a dintrophys to keep the teeth dainty and healthy. Get this bottle and try it. Remember it's continued use tints to stop hair from falling by promoting a vigorous growth of healthy hair. Remember that it restores color to the hair. It is harmless and a trial will convince you that it's just what we claim for it. Send to us today in closing 10 cents to pay postage and packaging and the bottle will come by first mail in a plain wrapper with full explanations.
