Il ally ceanses the Teeth, and will answer the

IEGETABLE HAIR OIL.

For the restoration Of hair on Bald heads,
Giving health and beauty to the hair
when it becomes dry and
begins to decay.
VHSIIIS Vegetable Oil possesses the peculiar PRO-
IL pery, so long sought for in other oils, but
sought in vain, ,ofre- producing new growth orhair
on heads totally bald
So great are its nourishing properties,
which it readily mparts to the roots of the hair,
that it requires tut short time TO produce new
growth, and few applications to check that falling
Of the has which 80 often occurs, especially after
sickness. II prevents the hair from turning grey,
and when it begins to turn, may be easily checked
and restored to its natural beauty, by applying the
Oil.
This Oil gives an agreeable fragrance
and is preferable to any other for perfuming, curl
ing and CLOSING the hair The hair does not be-
come dry after using it.
The growth of hair on children is Won
derfully improved by the use Of this Oil.
Ladies and gentlemen Of the highest rank have
patronized this Oil very extensively, and such have
been its effects in every city where it has been in
troduced it receives the decided preference.
Physicians inferior to none in Medical science,
have used and recommended it. The concuning
testimony Of thousands put it beyond all doubt, so
that the most incredulOus no longer hesitate.
The Oil needs no high wrought description such
is its worth and so highly is it valued by those who
have made trial Of it, that it stands and will stand
upon its own merits unriyalled.
The following extracts of letters from Agents
show in what high estimation this Oil is held
wherever it has been introduced:-Extract from a
letter from John A. Wadsworth, NJ of the city
of Providence, Il. l. to w. 4 l.. Krumbhaar, SEQ
Of Philadelphia:
Gentlemen-Dr. Wards Vegetable Hair Oil,
has gained great repute with us, having restored
hair on heads that have been bald for years, and
have no doubt it will give satisfaction wherever it
may be introduced-very respectfully,
JOHN A. WA DswoRTH.
Extract Of letter from Harvey Seymour, Drug
gist, Hartford, Ct. to the proprietor, dated Hart
ford, Sept. II, ls32-"Dear SRI find your
Hair Oil valuable article, was so unfortunate as
to lose the hair from the top of my head, and from
the of about half bottle, find it starting out

QUALITIES OF A FRIEND.


A true friend unbosoms freely, advises
justly, assists readily, adventures boldly,
takes all patiently, defends courageously,
and continues friend unchange eably.
These being the qualities of friend,
we are to find them before we choose one.
The covetous, the angry, the proud the
jealous, the talkative, cannot but make i'll
friends, as well as false.
In short, choose friend as thou dost
a wife, till death separate you.
Yet be not a friend beyond the altar /;
and let virtue bound thy friendship: else
it is not friendship, but an evil confede-
racy.
If my brother or knsman, will be my
friend, l ought to prefer him before
stranger; or l show little duty or nature
to my parents.
And as we ought to prefer our kindred
in point Of affection, so too in point Of
charity, if equally needing and deserv-
ing. Penn.

Till she starts away like an untamed dove,

POETRY.
IWATCH FOR THEE.

BY MRS c. ID. wILsOl
] watch for thee-when parting day
Sheds on this earth a lingering ray;
When his last bushes, DER the rose
4 richer tint of crimson throws;
And ev'ry iiow'ret's leaves are curl'd
Like Beauty, sinking from the world;
When silence reigns o'er lawn and lea,
Then, dearest love! | watch for thee!
I watch for thee-whcn ewes first star
Shines dmly in the heavens afar,
And twilight's mists and shadows gray
Upon the lakes broad waters play;
When not a breeze, or sound, is heard,
To starte evenings lonely bird,
But hushed at cen the humming bee
Then, dearest love. watch for thee.
j watch for thee-when on the eyes
OF childhood, sumber gently lies;
When sleep has silled the noisy mirth
OF playful voices round our hearth,
And each young cherub's fancy glows
With dreams that only childhood knows,
OF pleasures pastor yet TO be
Then, dearest love! watch for thee!
/ watch for thee hope Of my heart!
Returning from the crowded mart,
OF worldly toll and worldly strife,
And all the busy scene Of life;-
Then if thy brow of brightness wear,
A moments space, the shade Of care.
My smile amid that gloom shall be,
The rainbow Of the storm to thee!
