GO UP. THOU BALD HEAD. The sight of a BALD-HEADED man does not excite the same contempt to-day as in the time of Elijah. We see him at the theatre, in his office. We catch the polish of his head as he raises his hat in the street. We take him now as an accepted fact. It seems the natural order of things he should be bald. But how does he take it himself 1 The chances are his toilet-table is an array of hair-restorers and tonics, which have proved ineffectual. The chances are he has given up the quest for hair in disgust. “Wioletta,’ ’ is his need, if he but knew. “Wioletta,” the nourishment required to tone up the dormant cells and produce the growth which is man’s natural right. Price 3'6. Sold everywhere. From A. HYDE, Hairdresser, Heretaunga Street.
