Men like it for the way it stimulates the growth of hair and the way it rids the scalp of dandruff, and when their gray hairs start coming back to original color they are amazed. Lea’s restores the scalp root and hair to proper working conditions which produce healthy, natural looking hair in abundance.

And once accustomed to spending every coin as fast as they get it, it’s pretty hard to break them of the habit. Not by strict orders... not by chastising... can they be made to do otherwise. But through kindness and appeal to their youthful imaginations in the “vast sums” they can Save, can they be persuaded to hold on to money. Then, before long, you’ll have them coming to you with “Momsy, I want to put this in my bank!” When their bank is filled, deposit the money in a Savings Account for them in this Bank.
