DOES any know a neighbor or a friend who has been bald, and who * head is now cover ed with fine hair? One whose coat collar was covered with dandruff, though brushed every hour —•which has now vanished entirely ? Or one whose hairs at early age wi> turning grey, who now has not a grey hair ? Co idren w hose heads were covered with scurf—wn jse hair would not grow, that are now growing the fullest crops of hair ? Some cases must be kru wn to most persons. Aik them the cause, and you fill lie toW, these things have been done by thf use of the BALM OF COLUMBIA. Os 20 years growth is this ar ticle, its demand increasing an uaily some hundred percent—though when discovered not opposed by any thing for the same purpepe, now assailed by Almost numberless mushroom jtrash preparations, that will ruin the hair if used t|> any extent, can more than these facts be wan bid—refer to the re commendations by a list ofnarnjisof respectability, unequalled by any other article. Look to these things; buy this article. Stay find preserve your hair by its use, or, if bald, restore it. Ladies, at tend to this ; hundreds in fashionable life are using it as the only article really fit S|»r the toilet. Long hair is very apt to fall out. I idles, use the Balm of Columbia in time to «ave yourself the disgrace of baldness by neglect of your per-ons. It is your duty, as moralist t, to preserve the beauties of nature, with which . bountiful Creator has endowed you ; use the Bi Im, for it will do it. CAUTION TO BE REME ÜBERED.—Seve ral of the most flagrant attempt i have been made to counterfeit the true Balm o! Columbia. Some of these impostors have gone si far as to counter feit the splendid wrappers, and the falls of Niag ara, and every external mark (jxcept the name of Comstock, which they dare not forge. To avoid impositions, ihciefo - e, always look for the name of Comstock St Co. c • L. S. Comstock, and never buy the article unles it bas that name upon it.
