FOR YOUNG MEN.

WHAT AUTHORITIES SAY ABOUT DANDRUFF,

FALLING HAIR AND BALDNESS,

IT BEGINS IN THE YOUNG. Dr. Sabourand, of Paris, France, one of the greatest living authorities upon disons of the hair and scalp, has recently published the most exhaus five work ever written upon this subject. Dr. Cartes, hin- self an eminent investigator, in reviewing this book for Le Nature, submits the Doctor's conclusion in the following terse annoncement: BALDNESS IN A CONTAGIOUS DISEASE CAUSED BY A MICKONE. So far from being a dieanse of old ago, it is an affection of youth. Ir BEGINSIN THE YOUNG; and increases, whether rapidly or slowly, up to the ftieth year." We learn, therefore, that baldness as a destructive malady is not a disease of old age, but of youth, for in bald old men we simply see the RESULT of a disease that has been slowly doing its work for many years. The young man with abundant hair may not know that he has the discuse that will later produce baldness; in fact the firet certain evidence of its presence is the appearance of dandruff, which is flowerl, sooner or later, by itching of the scalp, nt finally the hair will bagia to fall out.

NEWBRO'S HERPICIDE,

CHRONIC BALDNESS POSITIVELY INCURABLE. Later in life the diecase will have done ite work, and chronic buldness, either partial or complete, will be the result. In chrozie baldness the hair follicles, which completely fill the scalp, are greatly shrunken in size, ond this shrinking causes the skin to stretch and appear shiny, indicating a complete atrophy of the follicles, in which case, no power on earth can bring another crop of hair.

If the baldnesss is acute or only partial, it shows thatmany of the hair follicles are not badly diseased, fur the microble growth is confined to the sebacious glands and has not yet oxtended to the papilla, or true hair root. Cases of this charactor are ourable, even though the baldness is apparently complete. Newbro's Herpicide should be used until the last symptom of parasitic growth has disappeared, and in connec tion with its use the sealp should be skilfully masenged to romove the dead hairs and keep up a full papillas. This treatment, persevered lu, brood supply to the partially bald to retain what hair they have, and in many persons cases get a full new crop.

Determined resistance should be offered to the formation of the first "shiny spot," for this shrinking process, by restricting the blood supply to the scalp, grostly hastens spproaching baldness.
