whatever cause it may have fallen OUT and

no equal. It will force the beard to grow upon
the smoothest face in from five to eight weeks,
or hair upon bald heads in from two TO three

serted that there is nothing that will force or
hasten the growth Of the hair or beard. Their
assertions are false, as thousands Of living wit
nesses (from their own eypcrience) can bear
witness. But many will say, how are We TO

A New DIsEAsE-Great interest among
physicians, and much public alarm, have risen
in the Irish metropolis, from the occurrence Of
several cases of a disease previously unknown
there. The first case was on the 18th of
March, 1866. in the person Of most healthy
student of medicine, and three others took
place within the succeeding month, but during
the present year over twenty cases have oc-
Cured in Dublin and the neighboring suburb,
Kingstown. Sudden prostration, almost black
purpuric discoloration Of the skin, and death
within few hours, have marked all the cases
The duration of the disease from seizure to
death, (tor all the cases have been tatal) has
varied from seven to ninety hours. In several
instances there has been coma ior some hours
before death; and, in few, tetanoid spasms
and increased sensibility, which symptoms IN
dicate that the malady may be closely related
to cerebrc- spinal meningitis, which was cpl
demic in Ireland in 1916, and in West Prussia
in 1865. No rank Of life has more than an
other attracted the disease, which numbers
among it's victims young nobleman, two stu
dents Of the profession, three soldiers, and
some other persons living under the best hy-
gienic circumstances. The fact that it pre-
ceded and Immediate succeeded the outbreak
of cholera in Dublin, Kinsgtown and Tullamore,
has suggested to some that it may be 4 form
of that pestileuce or due to the same cause,
but there is no evidence whatever OF the rela-
tionship. It would appear that the disease Is
not at all communicable, for no second case has
occurred on the site OF the first.
