Mr. F B Neil, of Davidson Col

daughter suddenly and unaccounta
bly lost all ber hair. -From 'the
crown .down and from ear to ear was
as bald as tho palm of .the band.
Months and months, passed and the
frightful baldness r. remained, , My
physician Dr. aul , Barrinsjer, re
commended Mrs. Grier's Real Hair
Restorer. . Determined . to give it a
fair trial I .bought, a half dozen
bottles. Three bottles of it faithfully
used, . produced no visible effect,but
one inorning, eoon after begioning
the fourth bottle, to our surprise
and delight, a new growth of hair
appeared and so rapid and complete
was the restoration that onlv, one
more bottle was needed. Ten
years hare; elapsed and no one has a
finer suit of hair. j
Less than oLe bottle is often ef
fectual in checking falling hair.
