No excuse for a Bald head.
From the Somcrville, N. J. Whig.
Sometime since I called upon Mr. P.
Mason, of Somerville, for Dr. Jaync's cel
ebrated HairTonicito restore my ; hair,
which was then falling out daily. I pro
cured one bottle, and applied its contents
according to the directions. When the
bottle was exhausted, I discovered to mv
great surprise and satisfaction, that the
.young hair was starting handsomely; I
therefore purchased another, and so on till
I had used three bottles, and now, as a
compensation, my hair is as thick as ever.
And what is more surprising, my bald
ness was not occasioned by sickness, in
which case there is a greater hope of res
toration but was hereditary.
