After Jan. is, the date the national pro-

There are on the market many hair
Ftonics whose principal ingredient is al
Cnhol and that they are hair tOnics in

must be modified to conform to the law
The bureau, he said, has under consid-

added a quarter of a grain of tartar
emetic for each fluid ounce.
