To Grow Hair on
a Bald Head
BY a Specialist


Thousands of people suffer from
badness and falling hair who, having
tried nearly every advertised hair
tonic and hair grower without
results, have resigned themselves to
badness and it's attendant discomforts.
Yet their case is not hopeless; the fol-
lowing simple home prescription has
made hair grow after years OF bald
ness, and is also unequaled for re-
storing gray hair to its original color,
stopping hair from falling out and for
destroying the dandruff germ. 1t will
not make the hair greasy, and can be
put up by any chemist: Bay Rum g
ounces, Lavona de Composee'32 ounces,
Menthol Crystals u drachn. If you
wish it perfumed add half to one tea
spoonful of To-Kalon Perfume, which
unites perfectly with the other ingre-
dents. This preparation is highly
recommended by physicians and spe-
cialists, and is absolutely harmless,
as it contains none of the poisonous
wood alcohol so frequently found in
hair tonics. Do not apply to the face
or where hair is not desired.
The above ingredients are all stand
ard and are kept by almost any up-to-
date drug store. Dean Drug company,
for instance, state that they are OBJ
liged to fill this prescription many
times each week and that all their
patrons have reported the greatest de-
gree of satisfaction
