DORA SUTHERLAND.
It happened some years ago when the
Seven Sisters were little girls. Their
father. Rev. DR.. Sutherland, learned in
drugs and herbs, found, as the result OF
his immense practice, that he was VIC
tim to the great American misfortune Of
badness. As his locks grew thin, and
yet thinner, he made up his mind that
there must be a specific for this as for
every other disease, and he gave the sub
iect special study. AT length he found
the golden key TO the mystery and APP
piled it to his head with such success
that he soon had q new and luxuriant
crop OF hair. His daughters, blessed
only with ordinary children's hair, used
his preparations for cleansing and
strengthening their hair, with the result
of making them the wonders OF the
world. They nave always used the pre-
parations since then, and for years be-
fore they were prevailed upon to put
them up for public use they were in the
habit OF presenting them to friends in
need, and always with happy results.
When the Seven Sutherland Sisters
went into business they adopted the hon
orable course of placing themselves be-
fore the public, where they could both
give optical evidence of the value OF their
preparations and fairly tell the limits of
its virtues. So they established commo-
dious parlors at No. Is west Fourteenth
street, with themselves for hostesses, and
here you can find them at all hours OF
the day, stared at by the curious, but
too busy attending 10 the wants OF Gus
toners to mind the gazes of the idle
throng. The rush to the parlors on
pleasant days is something remarkable.
Ladies' who have tried the remedies and
cleansers bring their friends to see the
sisters and learn from their own lips Just
what can be expected from use of them.
The sisters are eloquent OF tongue and
patient of temper. They answer all sorts
of questions, pertinent and otherwise,
and they never weary Of telling how they
wash and braid and care for the wonder
full locks which fathers skill and learn
ing, backed up by their own good health,
can give them.
"No," you will hear one say frankly ;
"our Hair Grower will not bring hair if
the roots be dead in the scalp. 1t is q
revivifer and tonic, not creator
nothing is that But so long as there
are roots, no matter how much diseased
or debilitated, our preparations will act
like magic upon them"
And then perhaps she will point out a
lady among the visitors as patient who
had lost her hair from erysipelas and
lost oil hope OF regaining 1t; yet q
weeks use of the Grower started new
and healthy crop.
One feature OF the Seven Sutherland
Sisters business is the trade through
druggists. AS a matter of fact they have
made no special efforts to push this bust
ness, being satisfied with their own sales.
But the public has called and the drug
gists have responded, and their demands
in wholesale lots are constantly increas-
ing.
A peculiarly grateful feature of the
business is the honest gratitude ex-
pressed by benefciaries of the hair
remedies. Many ladies write to the
Seven Sisters thanking them for the
benefits received, and Offering to testify
publicly or privately to the good which
has been done them. Now, when one is
engaged in a laudable enterprise praise
of this character is indeed sweet, and
the Sisters would not be human, much
less feminine, if they did not take a
keen delight in these testimonials, few
samples OF which are worth printing as
evidence.
Here is what Mrs. NJ. Mckinney, of
No. "a west Third street, Long Island
City, writes 81 cannot but in some
way extend my sincere thanks for the
wonderful benefits your Hair Grower and
Hair and Scalp Cleaner has done for me.
About three months ago began to lose
my hair so rapidly that badness seemed
my fate. consulted physician, but
with no hopes whatever, but was induced
by lady who had used your prepare
ton with good results to try it. l did
SO, and after using your Grower and
Cleaner eleven days new growth of
hair began, and now my head is com
pletely covered with new hair, especially
ON the top OF my head, which was very
bald. You have my best thanks.
And here is q case of complete bald
ness cured. The writer is Miss Ella
Mcdonald, OF 3l7 Eighth street, Jersey
City: Although my health has always
been good have been completely bald
two years. During that time, having
used various preparations prescribed by
physicians without any benefit, / have
only used your Hair Grower and Scalp
Cleaner three weeks and there is new
growth of fine hair visible all over my
head"
Mrs. A. Stevens, OF No. 1905 Third
avenue, says 81 wish 10 tell you some
of the benefits l have derived from the
use of your preparation. For twenty
eight years l have been without much
hair. l commenced to use your prepa-
rations November Sth, and now my head
is covered with new growth OF hair.
Miss Ella Goldsmith, $50 west Forty
sixth street, blesses the name of suther-
land and the magic figure Z. She writes !:
"My hair has been falling for the past
three years so rapidly that eight months
ago my head was covered with bald
spots. ] had only used your Hair Grower
and Hair and Scalp-Cleaner twelve days
when a new growth OF hair appeared.
Have now used it two months, and my
hair is now three inches in length, as
shown in my photograph taken to-day. =
Verify. blessed are they that add locks
TO the bald heads Of mankind and wo-
