Well Known Politician Near

Growth of Hair.
Tells How He Did It.

A Western politician, we'll known
on account Of his badness and his
ready wit, surprised his friends by ap-
pearing with heavy growth Of hair;
many of his friends did not know him,
and others thought he had wig. On
being asked how he did it, he made
the following statement: Il attribute
the growth of my hair to the follow
ing simple recipe which any lady or
gentleman can mix at home: To a
half-pint Of water add 1 ounce Of Bay
Rum. a small box of Barbo Com
pound and IA ounce of Glycerine.
Apply to the scalp two or three times
a week with the finger tips. 1t not
only promotes the growth Of the hair,
but removes dandruff, scalp humors,
and prevents the hair from falling
out. 1t darkens streaked, faded gray
hair and makes the hair soft and
glossy. These ingredients can be
purchased at any drug store at very
little cost and mixed at home."-AD-
