Hints on Diseases of Me Hair.

Badness arises from several causes, but
chiefly from a cutaneous ScuE that has It's
origin in n diseased state of the blood, which,
if not cradlcated, occasions the loss Of the
hair. In such cases, frequent application OF
the Chemical BaiSan,, as a wash and emoll-
ent, preserves the roots by its healthy and
curative action upon the minute blood vessels
which surround and nouriSh the hair, and
destroys the disease, which, if left unchecked,
must occasion final badness, from the cor
rupt state of the skin This is the most dan
gerous of all diseases incident to the roots of
the hair and the one 10 be most carefully
guarded against. Fevers are also causes Of
the falling out OF the hair, as well as many
other complaints which 1t ls needless to emu
merate, ell having one origin. The only pre-
servative against losing the hair from old age,
is constant attention, and the application Of
such stinulants as the Chemical BdiSdm
which will nourlsh the roots. BY it's use the
hair may be preserved vigorous to extreme
old age. Just received and for sale by
