| THE Indian Dye, for coloring and preserving the
human hair.
| This excellent and very innocent preparation
differs entirely from the various articles hitherto
used for the same purpose, inasmuch as 1t is
| free from all noxious ingredients, and will not,
in the slightest Degree injure the texture of the
hair, or even stain the skin. Red light grey,
| or grsly hair, can, in eight hours be changed
| by it to a beautiful and permanent black or
brown; or if applied at night, on going to bed,
! the change will have taken place by morning.
Whiskers and eyebrows are colored with the
same facility. Price IS cents per bottle.
Lo1r's Indian OIL
The Indian Oil is a compound of Bears Oil
with other articles of equal benefit for the
| growth and for gradually coloring the hair, it
| has obtained much celebrity for its fine effects
| and is in daily demand. 1t gives to the hair
bright and fasting curl, and makes it, when
| harsh, soft and beautiful. Persons who are be-
/ coming grey will find the Indian Oil of much
service in preventing so great calamity as it
surely is, to the fashionable lady, or the aspiring
| bachelor. No other direction for its use is ne
cesssry than to dress the hair with it as is done
with Pomatum or Bears Oil. Price Is cents
per bottle.
Purified Bears Oil.
Among the many articles offered to the pub
lie for the growth and preservation of the hair,
none seem to have given SO much satisfaction as
the Purified Bears Oil-which has been known,
in many instances to restore the hair on heads
which have been bald for years; it also prevents
the hair from falling out, and quickly restores
it when lost from sickness, or any other cause.
1t gives to the most stubborn locks strong,
glossy and lasting curl, removes the dandruff
which often impedes the growth of the hair eau
sing head ache, &c.
The Bears Oil is far superior to Antique or
Macassar Oils which being Of vegetable origin,
soon make the hair hard and crisp, while animal
oils, on the contrary, make it soft and beautiful.
OF the latter class, the Bears Oil being more
penetrating, is, of course preferred. Mothers
will find it excellent for the heads of their chill
dren, and to gentlemen of fashion is is recon-
mended for the growth of whiskers. When
used, it should be well rubbed into the roots of
the hair with penetrating hail-brush, which
excites also healthy action in the skin the hair
should be we'll oiled every other day, before
combing it. Being highly purified, and plea
sanity perfumed, it will be found decidedly SUI
peror to ANY other article for constant use in
dressing the hair. Prince IS cents per bottle
Pearl Ponder.
1t is not the intention of this preparation to
paint the skin, but merely to remedy the effects
ofheat, which it does by gently cooling it's sur
face, and preventing sudden changes of the
complexion. This powder will be found free
from any deleterious articles, and may be used
with perfect safety. Price 25 cents per box
Compound Chlorine Tooth Wash
This highly popular preparation is believed to
be the best wash for the teeth ever discovered;

many purposes has never been better applied
than as a cleanser of the teeth and gums. Iii
has been compounded for the purpose, with
other articles of known utility, and is recon-
mended to the public as preparation Of supe
ror value.

healthy state, and the progress of decay in
unsound teeth prevented. 1t gives surprising
whiteness to the teeth, prevents the accumula-
ton OF tartar, and preserves the gums from sour
