OF all the compounds which the chemists
art has given TO the world, for Hundreds of
years, for the purpose of restoring the hair
TO its natural growth aud color, not one has
been perfect. Many of the hair dressings of
the day are excellent, but the great mass OF
the stuffs sold for promoting the growth and
bringing back the original color are mere
humbugs, while not few are positively
pernicious 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 or.
tiicisl, aud does not depend upon a restora
ton OF the functions of the scalp TO their
natural health and vigor. The falling out
of the hair, the accumulation of dandruff
and the premature cnange in color ere all
evidences of a diseased condition of the
scalp and the glands which nourish the hair
To arrest these causes the article used must
possess medical as we'll as chemical virtues,
and the change must begin under the scalp

an article has been discovered, and like
many other wonderful discoveries il ~ found
to consist of elements almost in their natur

is made to work such extraordinary results;
but il is after the best refined article has

had fallen out were completely restored in
