FEVERS.—The effect of Fever or an inflamma-
tory state of the head Is most injurious to the H silt, render-
ing it thin. arid, and entirely destroying its beauty; this state is'pro-
duced by the unnatural heat of the head during fever, drying up the
unctuous matter which nature, in a healthy state, liberally supplies
to the hair. Beautiful hair cannot exist where this lubricating mat-
ter is not sufficiently supplied ; a careful analysis of this peculiar tut-
tural unguent has been made, and repeated experiments have pro-
duced MILTON'S HAIR LITBRIC INT, in which are combined
wick the greatest care the exact natural components; it is, there-
fore, the only rational application which should be made to the hair;
its effects are immediately perceptible, causing dry thin hair t') be-
come lustrous, silky; and abundant.
