cures luxuriant growth of hair, it also brings
back the natural color and gives the most complete
satisfaction in the using. The falling out Of ths
hair, the accumulations Of dandruf and the pro
mature change in color are all evidences OF Q
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 a

Such an article is Carboline, and like many othes
wonderful discoveries it is found TO consist
