dry them and take the glass and run

spring tonic such as the old-fashioned
one made from -four of sulphur and
ia BILE sirup If these eruptions con-
tinue, consult the doctor. Your scalp
is probably feeling this same condi-
ton. Massage the scalp with hot
crude oil the night before the regular
shampoo. Tie the hair up in cloth
to protect the bed linen.

the shampoo it did not cause your
trouble, as this is a tonic for the hair.

I am wondering if you purchased

of henna in it and a large amount Of

Hair is so easily cultivated that you
should be able to start new growth
in that bare spot. but If you do not
have that confidence in your own
treatments YOU should have some pro-
fessional work ON it at once.
