TO THE BALD HEADED AND
OTHERS.

Does any knows neighbor orfriend who was
fine hair? One whose coat collar was CO.
vered with dandruf, though brushed eve-
nv hour-which is now vanished entirely.
Or one whose hair at an early age were
turning grey, who now has not a gray
hair Children whose heads were COW
cred with acurf-whose hair would not
grow, chat are now growing the fullest
crops of hair? Some cases must be
known 10 most persons. Ask them the
canse, and you will be told, these things
have been done by the use of the BALM
OF COLUMBIA. OF 20 years growth
is this article, its demand increasing an
nually some hundred per cent.-Though
when discovered not opposed by any thing
for the same purpose, now assaiIed by al
most numberess mushroom trash prepera-
tons that will ruin the hair if used to an
extent. Can more than these facts be
wanted-reler to the recommendation by
a list of names of responsibility unequal
led by any other article. Look to these
things-buy this article. Stoy and pre-
serve your hair By its use, or if bald res
tore il, Ladies attend to thIs--hundreds
in fashionable life are using as the only
article really fit for the toilet. Long hair
is very apt TO fall out. Ladies, use the
Balm of Columbia in time to save your
selfthe disgrace of badness by neglect of
your persons.
1t is your duty, as moralist to preserve
the beauties of nature, with which beau
tiful Creator has endowed you-use the
Balm for it viii do.
CAUTION TO BE REMEMBERED.
Several most fragrant attempts have
been madeto counterfeit the trueBalm of
Columbia. Some of the imposters have
gone so far as to counterfeit the splen-
did wrappers, and the Falls of Niagara,
and every external mark exceptthe name
of Comstock, which they dare not forge.
To avoid imposltions therefore, always
look for the name Of Comstock & Co.
or L. S. Comstock, and never buy the ar
ticle unless it has that name upon it.

should exceedingly regret to the exciting scenes
of Missouri re-enaccd in this State, but we con-
sder such as not among the impossibilities. What
appears to excite particular aversion or alarm, is
the organization of what is called the Nauvoo Le-

for war" Their neighbours unsked in the mys-
tercs of the golden plates, fear they TO be driv

place as much faith in the efficacy of rams horns,
in tearing down the walls of the Gentiles, as in
