HORRIBLE MISTAKESu
Are sometimes made by confounding;one medi

article. Equally horrible are those mistakes
which are made in supposing that Ill Pills are

are taken, and if one kind is bad all are bad to-
gether. This is a very great misto Ike. There i
as much difference between Wtights Indian Veg

The Genuine Balm of Columbia, for restoring the
Hair.
"Long hair is glory to woman," says Paul,
And nil feel the truth Of the Pious quotations;
Preserve it then, ladies-your glory may fall,
Unless you protect it with this preparation.
If you wish rich, luxuriant head of hair; free
from dandruff and scurf, do not fail to procure
the Genuine Balm of Columbia. In cases Of
ba dnes it will more than exceed your expectations
Many who have lost their hair for twenty years
have had it restored to its original perfection by
the use of this balm. Age, state or condition ap-
pears to be no obstacle whatever; it also causes
the fluid to flow with which the delicate hair tubea
is filled, by which means thousands (whose hair
gray as the Asiatic eagle) have had their hair
restored to their natural color by this invaluable
remedy. In all eases of fever it will be found the
most pleasant wash that can be used. A few ap-
plications only are necessary to keep the hair
from falling ont. 1t strengthens the roots, it
yer fails to impurt q rich glossy appearance, and
as perfume for the toilet it is unequaed; it holds
three times as much as other miscalled hair res.
toratives and is more effectual.
Caution-Ncver buy it unless you find the
name Of Comstock 4. Co., Proprietors. on tho
wrapper of each bottle, or you are cheated with
counterfeit article.

1t will be readily conceded by eTery intelligent
mind that Tonic SYRUP composed of the most

possibly be compounded with the limited quantity
usually administered in the form of Pills.
