WHAT TIE WORLD HAS BEEN
WAITING FOR CENTURIES.

The creates, discovery of our day, so far as a
larS" portion OF humanity Is concerned, Is CAR
EOITNE. an article rrcrares; FROM Petroleum. and
which effects "a complete a:.l radical cure in case
of blindness, or where the hair, owing 10 diseases of
the scalp, has become Gain and tends to fall out.
1t Is also q speedy restorative. and. while its use
secures a Iuxuriant growth OF hair. II also brings
back the natural color, ast gives the most CONF
pletc satisfaction In the using. The falling oto Of
thu hair, the Accommodations of daadruf, and the
premature change In color, are all evidences Of =
diseased condition OF the scalp and the glands
which nouri5h the hair. To arrest these causes
the article used must possess medical as well as
chemical virtues, and tile change must begin HHdsr
the scalp to be of permanent and lasting benefit.
such an article T. CAKcOLISE. and ike many
other wonderful discoveries 1t Is found TO consist
Of elements almost In their natural state. Spctro-
icum ol! Is TIE article which is made 10 work such
extraordinary results: but 1t is after II has been
chemically treated and completely deoderized thar
It is Ia proper condition for the toilet. 1t was In
far-of Russia that the effect Of petroleum upon the
hair was first observed. a Government officer hav-
ing noticed that 4 partially baii-leaded servant
of his, when trimming the lamps, had 4 habit Of
wiping his o~il-besmeared hands ~ his ssanty
Jocks, aud the result WAS in q few months 4 much
hner head of black. glossy hair than he ever had
before. The oil was tried on horses and cattle that
had lost their hair from the cattle plague, and The
results were as raiii as itlee vera WafNC!ous. u
names and even the tails of horses, which had fall
len ont. were completely restored ia a few weeks.
These experiments were hcralied to the world,
but the knowledge was practically useless TO the
prematurc1y bald and gray. as no one in civilized
society could tolerate i!la nse of refined petroleum
as 4 dressing for The hair. Bat the skin Of one of
our own chemists has overcome the di.iculty, and,
by q process known only 10 himself, he has, ?fier
very elaborate aud costly experiments, succeeded
in dCodoriZing petroleum, which renders 1t sus-
ccpiiH!e Of nciHC handed - daiatiir as the famous
eaa 10 eo!s.ne. The experiments made with the
dcolorized liquid on the hU.:aa hair were at
tended with the most astonishing results. A few
applications where the hair was Thin and falling
gave remarkable tone and vignT TO the scalp and
hair. Every particle Of daniruT disappears GA
the first or second dressing, and The liquid, so
searching III its nSture, seems to penetrate TO the
roots at once and set up a radical change from the
start. 1t is well known that the most beautiful
colors arc made from petroleum, aud by some mys-
terlons operation of nature the use Of this article
