The source and making of Cottolene insure its puiity. From the white, tufty tops of The Sunny South-
land's cotton the seed is removed, the oil extracted, refined, and made neutral in taste and odor.
From CattonftcM to KJtchan—human hands never touch the oil from which Cottolene is made.
Compare the source of Cottolene with the source of lard, and draw your own conclusions as
to the comparative cleanliness, purity, and healthfulness of the two products.

the result of Neumsthenlu, but oftener
indigestion is the original cause of tho
nervous condition. The nerves

Are Microbes
in Your Scalp?
It Has Been Proved that Microbes
Cause Bald ess.
professor Unna of Hamburg, Otrniany.
and Dr. Sabourand, tho leading French
dermatologist, discovered that a microbe
causes baldness. Their theory has time
and again been amply verified through
research experiments carried on under
th„ observation of eminent scientists.
This microbe lodges in the Sebuir, which
is the natural hair oil, and when per-
mitted to nourish destroys the hair fol-
licles and in time the pores entirely
close, and the scalp gradually tak s on
a sidny appearance, when this happens
there is no hope of the growth or natr
being revived.
Dandruff is a contagious disease,
which is 1 irgely due to a destructive
microbe, which when left to pursue Its
course causes itching scalp, tailing hair
and baldness. Dandruff is caused by
the. microbe affecting the glands which
produce the sebaceous matter, which
latter then unnaturally dries up and
scales off.
We have a remedy which will, we
honestly believe, remove dandruff, ex-
terminate the microbe, promote good
circulation of the scalp and around the
loots of the hair, tighten and p-vltallz"
the hair roots and over some baldness, so
