"The 'beauty doctor' told a good story about her hair-restorer," said a
well-known Akron business man Monday, "but I know a better one. With
several other men I was associated, several years ago, in the manufacture
of a restorer. We had a fakir selling the remedy, and this was one of his
tales:
"'A woman came to me the other day for her eighth bottle. She said she
liked the taste of it so well. I was frightened and took her into a
private office and told her to show me her tongue. She stuck it out and
there was a half-inch of hair on it. To keep from hurting the business we
had to feed her camphor balls all that summer to keep the moth out of her
stomach.'"--_Akron (Ohio) Times-Democrat._
