Some eminent histologists and > chemists were employed by the Unit-! - ed Drug Co., Boston. Mass., to find! l the means of destroying these mic, robes and a remedy that would create! a new growth of hair where the hair I t roots had not been entirety destroy- j e ed. Aflet' months of study, experiment-! 3 ing and research work, they discov-i 3 cred what they claimed would do i what was demanded. To unqticsiion-1 1 ably prove their theory, 100 leading druggists, located in as many difs ferent. cities, were requested to each . furnish the name of a responsible / person suffering from falling hair t and baldness. Each of these TOO per sons were furnished three Initio of! 3 the preparation with a request to; i give it a thorough trial and ropnrt 1 i results. 1 Five of these persons failed to report.
