excellent, but the great mass Of the stuffs sold
for promoting the growth and bringing back
the original color, nrc nero mmbugs, while
not few are pernicious in their effects upon
the scalp and hair. The falling out Of the hair,
the accumulations of dandruff, md the pre-
mature change in color are all evidences Of a
diseased condition of the scalp and the glands
winch nourish the hair. To arrest these causes
the article used must possess medical as well
as chemical virtues and the change must be-
GIN under the scalp to be of permanent and
lasting benefit Petroleum oil is the article
winch Is made to work such extraordinary
results; but it is after the best refined article
has been chemically treated, and completely
deodor1zed, that it is in proper condition for
the toilet and receives the name of Carboline.
1t was in far-off Russia that the effects of pc
uoleum upon the hair were first observed; a
government officer having noticed that par
ually bald-headed servant Of his, when trim
ming the lamps, had a habit of wiping his
oll-besmeared hands in his scanty locks, and
the result was, in few months, much finer
mead Of black, glossy hair than he ever had
before. The oil was tried on horses and cattle
that had lost their hair from cattle plague, and
the results were marvellous. The names and
tails of horses, which had fallen out, were
completely restored in few weeks. These
experiments were heralded to the world but
no one in civilized society could tolerate the
use OF refined petroleum as a dressing for the
hair. But the skill of one of our chemists has
overcome the difficulty, and he has succeeded
Ill perfecting Carboline, rendering it as dainty
ss the famous eau de cologne. Experiments
on tho human hair and skin were attended
with the most astonishing results A few ap-
pllcations, where the hair was thin and falling
gave remarkable tone and vigor to the scalp
and the hair. Every particle of dandruff disap-
pears on the first or second dressing, all cuta-
neous disease of the skin and scalp are rapidly
and permanently healed, and the liquid seems
to penetrate to the root of the hair at once. 1t
Is well known that the most beautiful colors
are made from petroleum, and by some mys-
ferrous operation of nature the use of this arti-
Gle gradually imparts beautiful light brown
color to the hair, which by continued use deep
ems to black The color remains permanent.
and the change is so gradual that the most
intimate friends can scarcely detect its pro-
gress. In word, it is the most wonderful
discovery of the age, and well calculated to
make the prematurely bald and gray rejoice.
Carboline is put up in neat and attractive
manner and sold by all dealers in drugs and
medicines. Price one dollar bottle Ken

We advise our readers to give it a trial,
feeling satisfied that one application will
convince them of its wonderful effects.
