MAKE YOUR OWN HAIR TONIC.

A Specialist’s Advice. In a recent issue the Daily Mail of London published a special article on the care of the hair, in which was given the formula for a homemade hair tonic that was highly recommended for its remarkable hairgrowing properties, as well as for stopping falling hair, revitalizing the hair roots, and destroying the dandruff germ. This article was of special interest to me, as the formula was one which I, myself, have seen used in countless cases with most astonishing benefit, thus confirming ray belief that home-made hair preparations are the best. For the benefit of those who have not seen it before, 1 give the formula herewith. Procure from your chemist a fourounce bottle containing three ounces of Bay Rum, one ounce of Lavono de Composee (Smith’s) and % dram Menthol Crystals. Dissolve the crystals in the Bay Rum, and then add the Lavona de Composee ; shake thoroughly and apply night and morning to the roots of the hair, rubbing into the scalp with the finger tips. This preparation contains no colouring matter, but restores grey hair to its original colour by its action; on the hair roots. If you desire it perfumed, add half a spoonful of French Fon Fleur per. fume, which combines perfectly with the other ingredients, and imparts a most pleasing scent. (Do not apply ■veheKe hair i% not desired).
