The "Poro" preparations used in con nection with the treatment are made and told exclusively by myself, having the exduaive right to that name; and I, alone, know the secret of the com position that bears that name. Our clnlm has always been that when the hair begins to grow as the result of the use of “PORO,” it will continue to do so if only theacalp and hair be kent clean. This san itary method o. treatment is also having the desired effect in helping to prevent the spread of diseases, for it is a fact.that hair in an unsanitary condition carries the germs of disease which often prove fatal to Innocent persons coming in contact with them.
