The Hair.

\ single hair, which can support a
weight Of two punches, is so elastic
that 1t may be stretched to one-thrd Of
its entire length and then regain its for
mer size and condition. DR.. Pincus
has measured the growth of hair by
cutting off circles about one inch In
diameter from the heads of healthy
men and SO comparing the growth of
the patches with that of the rest of the
hair. He found that the growth rate
generally became slower after cutting,
that In some cases the hair on the
patches grew at the same rate as the
rest, but that 1t never grew any faster.
The ordinary length of the hair on
the head ranges between twenty-five
inches and about forty-five inches, the
latter being considered unusually long.

The Hest Guaranty of Merit Is Open to Pub
licity.

Every bottle of DR.. Piefce's world-famed
medicines leaving the great laboratory at Buff
falo, n. u, has printed upon its wrapper all
the ingredients entering into its competition
This fact alone places DIR. Pierce's Family
Medicines in a class all by themselves. They
cannot be classed with patent or secret medi-
cines because they are neither. This is why
so many unprecedented physicians prescribe
them and recommend them to their patie nts.
They know what they are composed of and
that the ingredients are those endorsed by
the most eminent medical authorities. The
further fact that neither DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, the great stomach tonic,
liver invigorator, heart regulator and blood
purifier, nor his "Favorite Prescription" for
weak, overworked. broken.down, nervous wo-
men, contains any alcohol, also entities them
to place all by themselves,
Many years ago DR. Pierce discovered that
chemically pure glycerine, of proper strength,
is a better solvent and preservative of the
medicinal plants than is alcohol, and, further
more, that it possesses valuable medicinal
properties Of its own, being demnlcent, nutri-
tiye.antiseptic, and most efficient antifer-
ment.
Neither of the above medicines contains al
cohol, or any harmful, habit-forming drug, as
will be seen from glance at the formula
printed on each bottle wrapper They are
safe TO use and potent to cure.
