A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY.
An Article that VIII Make the Bald and
the Gray Headed Rejoice.

OF all the compounds which the chemists art
have given to the world, for hundreds of years.
for the purpose of restoring the hair to its nat
ural growth and color not one has been per-
feet. Many Of the hair dressings uf the day
are excellent, but the great mass of the stuiis
sold for promoting the growth and bringing
back the original color, are mere humbugs,
while not u few are positively pernicitus in
their effects upon the scalp and the structure
of the hair. All hair dyes are well known to
chemists as more or less poisonous, because
the change in color is artificial and does not
depend upon restoration of the functions of
the scalp to their natural health and vigor
The falling out of the hair, the aCcumul ltiOns
Of dandruf, and the premature change in col
or, are all evidences of n diseased condition of
the scalp and the glands which nourish tn,
hair. To arrest these causes the article used
must possess medical as well as chemical viz
tues, and the change must begin luiG,r the
scalp to he of permanent and lasting 'nctit
Such an article has been discovered and like
many other wonderful discoveries it is found
! to consist of elements almost in their natural
state. Petroleum oil is made to work such cx-
| traordinary rcsuts: hut it is after the bn,
refined article has been chemically treated,
and completely dcOdorized that it is in proper
condition for the toilet. II was in far-O:f Rus
sia that the effects of petroleum upon the hair
] were first observed; a Government officer hav-
| ing noticed that n partially bald-headcd scr
want of his, when trimming the lamps, had n
habit of wiping his oil-besmeared hands in
his scanty locks, and the result was, in few
months, much finer head of black glossy
hair than he ever had before. The o was
tried on horses and cattle that had lest th iii
hair from the cattle plague and the result.
were as rapid as they were marvellous. The
names and even the tails of horses, whici had
fallen out, were completely restored in fcH
weeks. These experiments were heralded tc
the world, but the knowledge was practically
useless to the prcmaturely bald and gray, as nj
one in the civilized society could tolerate he us,
of refined petroleum as dressing for the hair
But the skill of one of our chemists has over
come the difficulty, and by a process known
only to himself he has, after very elahorat,
and costly experiments succeeded in dcodor
izing refined petroleum. which renders it sus
ceptibe of being handled as daintily as the fa
nous Cui de cologne. The experiments with
the deodorzed liquid. on the human hair, wer,
attended with the most astonishing results
A few applications, where the hair was thir
and falling, gave remarkable tone and vigo
to the scalp and the hair, and the natural col.
or began to appear almost from the frat ap
plcation. Every particle of dandruff disap
pears on the first or second dressing, and .h'
iquid, so searching IN lts nature, seems u
penetrate to the roots at once, and set up
radical change from the start. 1t is vel
known that the most beautiful colors ar,
made from petroleum, and by some mysteri
Gus operation of nature the use of this articl,
gradually imparts beautiful light brown col
or to the hair, which, by continued use, deep
ems to black. The color remains perm amen
for an indefinite length of time, and the chang
is 80 gradual that the most intimate friend
can scarcely detect its progress. In word, i
is the most wonderful discovery of the age
and well calculated to make the premaiurel,
bald and gray rejoice. The name Carbolin
has been given to the article, and is put up il
neat and attractive manner and sold by al
dealers in Drugs and Medicines. Price On
