NATURE SPARES
The Stricken Rose From Grief,

What a fortunate provision of nature
1t is, that deprives the rose of mental
suffering; for how poignant would be it's
grief to discover, in the height of it's
blooming glory, that canker fed at it's
heart, and that its beauty and fragrance
were doomed forever. Nature always
spares the suffering; she is a veritable
store-house of pleasing rewards, for
those who seek her aid. In the years
gone by falling hair and grayness have
cast gloom over the lives of thousands
of young women. but thanks to the in
vestigations of scientists the true cause
Of hair destruction Is now known to be
