HAIR REsToRATIvE.--W We are pleased to be able
of an article advertised in our columns. We have
the satisfaction to know several of our readers who
have used Professor Woods Hair Restorative, and
pronounced it to be just what the advertisement
says it's We have several personal acquaintance
too, who were gray -headed--they have tried it,
and their hair is restored to its original color
and they willingly add their testimony toits eff
ciency and give further inform alton to others de-
string it. This speaks well for the article, and we
advise all who do not wish to appear gray headed,
use Woods Restorat. Western Patriot.--tf

hind the door that led from the hall TO the
kitchen in the act of cutting her throat
with a razor; said to her, Mrs. Ward,
what have you been doing ~ She repll'
ed, "Dlspalch me quickly" took hold
of her hands and pulled them down from
heT neck, and took Ihe razor from her;
threw the razor and the axe that lay at heT
T., IA hn
reclly my father came in, and we made
her lay down on the bed she seemec
somewhat excited, and said TO me ire

EiresiGe Musings.

On the hearth the FIRE is glowing
CheerGully and bright,
While its flames around are throwing
dredry light.
Pleasantly the hours fit DER me,
As sit alone,
Dreaming of the days before me,
And Of the moments gone.
Row sad, vet pleasant, the associations
which cluster around The fresde. How
do visions of the past come stealing DER
us as we watch the brightly glowing en-
ber,, or The radantly brilliant fame as II
leaps iearIessly forward casting lis fantas-
TIC shadows Oer floor and ceiling, and dlt-
fusing It's genial. cheerful warmth around.
''riS then that memory presents To us
scene after scene from her laden treasury.
Images Of The friends OF other days now
stand in full relief on her tablet; friends
who but one short year ago met with us
round the Greside, who ever met the g lad
smile of welcome, and whose names were
as "household words" But where are
they now Alas they have falIen-
their place in lhe social circle is vacant
When life's teeming cup seems filled with
pleasure, in The midst of bright hopes,
kind friends and joyous expectations, they
were smilten by the ruthless hand OF
death, and they now quietly sleep in the
silent grave ! The wild winter winds, as
they moan through the branches of the
naked trees, seem TO mourn PaInllye
dirge DER their lonely resting place.
Ye. amid these sad reflections. hoS
happy, how cheering the thought, that we
NAV meet those friends in another and a
better world-where sickness nor sorrow
never come, where parting is never known
and where the weary shall forever be at
