A HOME-MADE HAIR GROWER THAT DOES MARVELS. During the last few years announcements have appeared occasionally telling how to make a really good hair tonic that would actually make the hair grow, and it gives us great pleasure to learn that so many who liave tried it have obtained such remarkable results. One lady writes that immediately after reading the formula, she went to her chemist and had him put up as directed, 1 ounce of Lavona de Com poser, '/i-ilram menthol crystals, and 3 ounces bay rum. She took this home and, although her hair had been falling out terribly, and she was threatened with baldness, she was astonished and delighted to note that the falling out of the hair stopped immediately, and the hair itself began to grow in an amazing manner. In fact, she states that it has already grown nearly eight inches in a little over two months. Moreover, her hair is now brighter, glossier and more luxuriant than ever, and is still growing. She rubbed the tonic into the roots twice a day for the first three weeks, but now applies it only once a day. It is especially interesting to note from this and other reports that this home-made hair-grower not only makes the hair grow most marvellously, hut it also destroys the dandruff germ and keeps the hair roots and scalp in a perfectly healthy and normal condition.

AX EASY WAY TO REMOVE SUPERFLUOUS HAIR. l'or tlie benefit of our lady readers who suffer from the humiliating digfig'ure.inent of hair on face, lipg or cliin, we publish herewith a formula which has the advantage of being simple and inex■pensive, as well as marvellously effective. It is not claimed by our informant that one application will permanently destroy the hair roots, butit is claimed, and the claims are borne out by actual tests, that one application completely removes the hair, and its regular use, one. or two days apart, will quickly and permanently destroy the hair root itseli. If you have hair which you wish permanently removed, ask your chemist to mix 4V-, drams pulverised Sulthine Concentrate with if, drams zinc oxide, P. 8., and I dram of powdered orris root, and put in a wide mouth bottle. For use, mix a ljttle of the powder into a paste on a ■ plate by adding a few drops of water. Apply with a narrow kiv.fe blade and remove at the end of two minutes with .tap back of the knife, when the dissolved ;"flair will come with it. Repeat at intervals of two days. Each time the growth will be less, until it entirely disappears. A good non-greasy cream, such as ('remc To-Kalon, may he used after each application. Caution: This must not be used as a substitute for shaving, aa its repeated use completely destroys tho hair roots.
