stated several times that Mr.. Samuel Bryant, who
heretofore had been barefaced on the top of his
head, had, by the use of coal oil grown a thick
coat of hair on the aforesaid bald head. We saw

found the statement correct. Mr.. Bryant told us
that the way he found out this new property of
coal oil was simply this He had a large boil on
the bald place on the top of his head, which gave
him much pain, andi in the absence of any thing
else, he rubbed coal oil on it. He said it relieved

of the oil for a month or two, and now has a
heavy coat of hair on his head. This is no. hum
