Ladies' und Ceatlemsn:-We would call
your attention to the advertisement Of Prof.
Oh. Woods Hair Restorative, which appears
in the columns Of our present number.
From our long acquaintance with the pro-
prietor, and with numerous iadividuals who
have used his prePai alton with perfect sue
cess for the last two years, we feel no hesita-
ton in recommending the article a. superior
to any Of the preparations now in use for the
same purpose, viz: for restoring gray hair to
it's original color, sure and perfect cure for
badness, and never failing preventive for
falling Of the hair.
It is decidedly the best and most popular In
use for beautifying, preserving, restoring and
strengthing the hair, relieving diseases Of the
skin, and removing scurf, dandruG and all
eruptions an teverish heat from the scalp.
We speak 10 relation TO the above from what
we know, having been personally acquainted
with numerous persons who have used the re-
storative for the above purposes with the most
gratifying results.
Il Is not often we notice patent medicine.
Indeed, we think we have never pufYed one
before; but Prof. Woods Hahn Restorative 10
something % superior to most Of the prepare
tons Of the day, that we cannot forbear asking
the attention Of readers to it.

ssWith One Exception

The Burlington Gazette and the Iowa City
Crescent, in speaking OF the New Constitution
and the opposition thereto by democratic press
es congratulate themselves over the undivided
front presented by the aforesaid presses "with
one exception" This latter clause is no doubt
intended to apply to the Journal. We have
been 20 unfortunate ~ to not follow the lead
Of these papers in the bitter warfare which
they are waging against the New Constitution
and, to them worse than all, have even spoken
out In favor Of its adoption.
We do not believe the Journal is the "one
exception" There are a number of Demo
cratic presses throughout the State who have
not yet defined their position, and we conf
IDENTIFY expect to see them arr aging themselves
side by-side with us in tbs question. But II
they do not, then we must ever continue as
we have ommenced--expressing our honest
sentiment. and Notwithstanding the conso-
lation Of knowing that we are not only sustain
ed BY the Democracy Of Central Iowa. but by
many prominent, influential and consistent
ratsthroughoutth the State.--C Des Moines
