PRODUCT :   222 jars of S Roses Hair Gror at Milwaukee, Wis.   Analysis showed
that the product was petrolatum, with perfume and certified coal-tar colors
added.  The product was contained in glass jars, each containing approximately
13 ounces by weight.
LABEL, IN PART: (Jar) "Don't Starve Your Hair Keep it growing! Contents
4 Ozs. or Over   Use 3 Roses Hair Gror   Will Improve Your Hair Instantly."
NATURE OF CHARGE: Misbranding, Section 502 (a), the name "3 Roses Hair
Gror" and the label statements "Don't Starve Your Hair Keep it growing I"
and "Will Improve Your Hair Instantly" were false and misleading. These
statements represented and suggested that the article would grow hair,
whereas the article would not grow hair.
Further misbranding, Section 502 (b) (2), the article failed to bear a label
containing an accurate statement of the quantity of the contents since the
label statement "Contents 4 Ozs. or Over" was inaccurate.
DISPOSITION : November 18,1953. Default decree of condemnation and destruc-
tion.
