IGOR THE TREATMENT OF THE SKIN, AND
! THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE HAIR, No. 2
FREMONT STREET, BOsToS. Dr.JAC0BY invites the
attention of persons subject to disease of the skin
manifested in the gradual loss of the hair, or per-
sons who are already bald, to his establishment,
where remedy can in most cases be found under
his Mineral treatment. lie can not in this con-
nection warn persons too strongly against the use
of greasy substances, or those deleterous washes
commonly composed of castor oil and alcohol
which are atonce so fatal to the hair and skin. In
cases the loss of the hair proceeds from these cir
cumstances:-The system expels through the pores
of the skin a certain quantity of animal matter
if this is suffered to remain, the pores become
clogged up, and consequently the health of the
hair is impaired. Now, to add to these animal
accumulations, grensy substances, particularly one
so vicious and gummy as castor oil, Is of course to
increase the evil. Cleanliness is the first law of
nature. The animal deposits must be ramoved,
the skin kept free from all fatty matter, and the
pores kept open Let this be done, and in nine
cases out of ten there will be no trouble with the
hair. In cases where diseases of the skin have
been contracted by a long neglect of these rules,
a mineral treatment is necessary to restore the
skin to n hcalthu and natural condition. DR..
JAcoBr will be happy to give to any person calling
W him more extended explanation of the whole
theory Of such diseases and their treatment, found
ed upcn simple and obvious conditions Of natural
science. The appended certificate Ia only one of
large number from other sources, testifyng to the
efficacy of his Mineral Washes as a remedy for
badness.
This is to certify that | have had an article
called the Berlin Hair Wash, applied during the
last five or six weeks, to my head, for the purpose
Of renewing an strengthening the hair. 1t has
been very effective in producing such result; and
| can checrlully recommend the same to those af
lctod with badness or disease connected there
with. JONAS CllICKERING.
Dr. JAconY would also call the attention Of the
public to his celebrated MINERAL HAIR DYE,
which will be found trial, to possess advantages
over any Dye ever discovered, or now in use. The
majority of the usual Hair Dyes are composed of
nitrate Of silver, which is a powerful caustic, not
only sure to injure the skin and burn the hrir,
but producing green pink and metallic tints in its
coloring. DR.. Jacoby's Hair Dye, although de-
rived from minerals, has in its composition neither
metal nor acid. 1t will produce any tint from the
highest brown to the deepest black, and perfectly
untot, the natural hues of the hair. 1t will also
soften the texture Of the hair. 1t will in no case
stain, burn, nor in any way njure the skin. Any
person can test its capabilities by single rial.
The most entire and perfect satisfaction is gu rant
| ecd for it.
The appended certificate from DR.. Charles T
Jackson will testify to its efficacy
