IMPROVED AND PERFECTED,
Is Absolutely the Only Article that will Restore
Hair on Bald Heads. and Cure all Dis
eases of the Skin and Scalp
What the World has been Want
ing for Centuries.

The greatest discovery OF our day, so far as
large portion OF humanity is concerned, is Carbo'
line, an article prepared from Petroleum, and
which effects complete and radical cure in cases
OF badness or where the hair, owing to disease OF
The scalp, has become thin and tends TO fall out
1t is also speedy restorative, and while its
cures luxuriant growth of hair, 1t also brings
back the natural color and gives the most complets
satisfaction in the using. The falling out Of the
hair, the accumulations OF dandruf and the pre-
mature change in color are all evidences Of .
diseased condition of the scalp and the glands
which nourish the hair. To arrest these causes
the article used must possess medical as well az
chemical virtues. and the change must begin under
the scalp to be of permanent and lasting benefit
Such an article is Carboline, and like many other
wonderful discoveries it is found to consist
of elements almost in their natural state
Petroleum oil is the article which ID
made to work such extraordinary results but it Is
after it has been chemically treated and com.
pletely deodorized that 1t is in proper con-
dtion for the toilet 1t was in far off Russia that
the effect OF petroleum upon the hair was first OBJ
served, a Government officer having noticed that
partially bald-hesded servant OF his, when trim
ming the lamps had habit OF wpng his oil
besmeared hands in his scanty locks, and the re-
suit was in a few months a much finer head OF
black, glossy hair than he ever had before. The
oil was tried on horses and cattle that had loss
their hair from the cattle plague and the results
were as rapid as they were marvellous. The names
and even the tails OF horses, which had fallen out
were completely restored in few weeks These
experiments were heralded to the world, but the
knowledge was practically useless 70 the prcma
turely bald and gray, as no civilized society
could tolerate the use of refined petroleum as
dressing for the hair. But the skill of one OF oul
own chemists has overcome the difficulty, and by
process known only to himself he has, after very
elaborate and costly experiments, succeeded ia
deodorizing petroleum, which renders it sus-
ceptible Of being handled as daintiiy 40
| the famous eau de cologne. The expert
ments made with the deOdorized liquid on tho
human hair were attended with the most aston
| ishng results. A few applications where the ha
was thin and falling gave remarkable tone and
| vigor to the scalp and hair. Every particle OF
dandruf disappears on the first or second dress
ing, and the liquid, so searching in its nature
seems 10 penetrate to the roots at once, and set up
radical change from the start. 1t Is well known
| that the most beautiful colors are made from
petroleum, and by some mysterious operation OF
nature the use OF this article gradually imparts
beautiful light brown color 10 the hair, which, by
continued use, deepens to black. The color re-
mains permanent for an indefinite length of time.
| and the change is so gradual that the most inti-
mate friends can scarcely detect it's progress In
| a word 1t is the most wonderful discovery of the
age and well calculated to make the prematurely
bald and gray rejoice.
| We advise our readers to give il trial, feeling
satisfied that one application will convince them
of its wonderful elfects.-lPittsbu Commercial
