ST. PAUL, January 1. 1855.
PRoF. O. J. Woos-DEAR SIR:-U Unsolicited
send you this certificate. After being nearly
bald for long time, and having tried all the
hair resteratiVes extant. and having no faith in
anyI was induced Oh hearing of yours, to give
it trial. placed myself in the hands of a
Barber, and had my head rubbed witha good,
stiff brush, and the Restorative then applied
aud well rubbed IN, till the scalp was all glow
This repeated every morning, and in three
weeks the young hair appeared and grew rap
idly from August last up othe present time,
and is now thick, black and strong-soft and
pleasant to the touch, whereas before it was
harsh and wiry, what little there was of it and
that little there was disappearing very rapidly.
L still use your Restorative about twice week,
and sha II soon have good and perfect crop of
hair. Now, have read of these things-and
who has not?--but have never seen hitherto
any case IN which any persons hair was really
benefited by any of the hair tonics, etc., of the
day; and 1t really gives me pleasure to record I
the result of my experience. l have recon-
mended your preparation TO others and it al +
ready has a large and general sale throughout /
the Territory. The people here saw its effects
and have confidence in it. All who have used
It here will coincide with me in what have /
written The supply you sent us as the

the most enlightened active and commercial
part. In affecting and converting the Ar.

missionaries are doing far more than they
would do by affecting to the same extent the

The Close of Summer.

Thou hast gone from us gentle Summer
With thy lovely golden bloom,
And the wild winds of Autumn sing
A requiem Der thy tomb,
Golden wreaths of sunshine, sparkling bright;
Incense from thousand lowers
Voices that we hear in dreams sometimes
All were thine-thou mad st them ours
Thou vert lovely and thy wealth of bliss
Freely gave to each sad heart;
Slave and master-prince and beggar poor
Unto each and all apart
For a little season loaned us them;
Were VIC thankful for the loan
Would We have rightly priz d thy treasures
Iadst thou never from us flown
What record hast thou left behind thee'
Here on the shadowy earth
What visions of delight and sorrow,
Commingling grief and nirh.
Creatures of thou .and fancies.
That gladden. a thousand hearts,
Perhaps to fade, ere you come again,
And leave but thousand smarts.
There were hearts ms light, as happy, too,
A. thy own sweet singing band,
When it woke joyous echo through,
The vaies and the green upland;
Who will never welcome thee again,
Nor rejoice to hear thy song
For long ere then in the Better Land
They'll sing with the angel tlrong
Should WE never welcome thee on earth,
May we meet with Summer Time;
