Woman's Hair Reaches to Knees.

A YEAR AGO WAS THREATENED WITH BALDNESS. TELLS HOW SHE MADE HER HAIR GROW, j A lady, now visiting friends m Otago, is tiie fortunate, possessor of marvellously beautiful hair, which, when loosened ,I*olll its coils, fails to her knees. Moreover, it is 01 soft, silky and fluffy texture, and in colour a glorious glossy gold. Yet just one year ago she was,, threatened with baldness. Urged to tell how she had obtained this wonderful growth in so short a time, she said: "Had anyone toid me such marvellous results could be accomplished so quickly, 1 positively would not have believed it. Twelve months ago my hair, which then reached barely to my shoulders, was tailing out ac an alarming rate, and growing very thin, actually exposing tne bald scalp in several spots. JLg was dull and lifeless 111 colour, turning grey in patches, and very dry and brittle. My head was covered with dandruff, and itched like mad all the time. I tried fully a dozen difterent hair tonics, but they were all the same, and never did me a bit of good. Une day 1 chanced to read in my home paper of a simple home prescription to make the hair grow that, was recommended by a well-known physician. It said that by taking ordinary Lavona de (Jomposee and mixing witn Bay Rum and menthol Crystals and applying to the scalp each night with the nuger tips that new hair would grow very rapidly. I decided to try it, and 1 had my chemist mix three ounces of Jbay Rum, one ounce of .Lavona de Coihposeo (Smith's) and % dram Menthol crystals, and started to use it. My, how quickly my hair did grow. first the hair stopped tailing, the itching ceased, and the dandruff disappeared. Then tiny little hairs appeared all over my scalp. These grew and grew as though nothing would ever stop them. Tliey are growing still, and while, of course 1 have used the treatment steadily, and expect to continue it at least until my hair reaches the floor, 1 might have stopped and been perfectly satisfied at tiie end of tnree months. I think Chat any woman can get long, thick beautiful hair by using this prescription, as 1 have recommended it to several friends, and ail are delighted with tne result. The prescription is very inexpensive, and any chemist can prepare it, but those who use it bhouid be careful not to get it on the face or whtjre hair is not desired.
