THE HUMAN HAIR. - Where the nair is
- observed to be growing thin, nothing can be
more preposterous than the use of oils, grease or
any fatty matter. Their application can only be
recommended through the grosscst ignorance as
they hasten the fall of the hair, by increasing the
relaxation of the skin. When there is harsh,
dry, or contracted skin, and where the small blood
vessels which carry nourishmcnt to the bulb are
obstructcd, then the oils, DC, may be good, as
they tend TO relax the skin; but alone, they are
OF no avail There must DC stimulus, to rouse
the vessels from their topper, and quicken the cur
rent of the blood.-Ertr0ct from Chrehugd's
| Treaties on tie hair.
The Bahm Of Coiumlaa is the only preparation
| that can have that effect, being entirely free from
any oily substance. It's positive qualities are as
| follows:
lst-ror infants, keeping the head free from
scurf, and causing luXuriant growth of hair.
2d--For ladies after childbirth, restoring the
skin to it., natural strength and frmncss, and
preventing the falling out OF the hair.
3d-For any person recovering from any deb-
ty the same effect is produced
4th-If used in infancy till good growth Is
started, it may he preserved by attention to the
latest period Of life.

ems the roots imparts health and vigour TO the
circulation, and prevents the hair from changing
colour or getting gray.
6th--It causes the hair to curl beautifully when

4 n nearly all the hair from the top of my head,
when commenced the use of the Balm of Column

head covered with a fine growth of hair. There
can be no mistake in the matter, as any of my
friends can see b. calling OH me. | had also be-
come quite gray, but had the gray hairs plucked
out, and II has grown in, as the Balm says, of the
natural colour. If any body doubts these facts,

A young gentleman OF 3Ss South Market street,
: Albany, had very coarse, stiff and straight hair,
all of which he lost by its falling out. He has
used bottles Of Balm Of Columbia from Comstock
& Co., and now has a full flowing crop of very
long, fine hair, which curls most beautifully! Hi.
father who is one of the most respectable citizen,
: ofthat city, is referred to for the fact
Mr. Lewis Willard, Of Butternuts, Otscgo coun
, ty, had lost his hair and had it fully restored by
bottles of the Balm. In fact the cures are so mum
erous that il is quite out of the question to refer t.
r one in hundred ofthosc who have experience,
, the like effects.
BEWARE!!-- Some counlerfeitcrs have at
tempted to initiate this article Let It never b
purchased or used unless il have the name Of l..
1 Comsfock on a splendid wrapper. This is tn
only external test that will secure the public iroi
deception. r
