PROFESSOR CROCKETT,

PROFESSOR CROCKETT,
after years OF hard study devoted to this one
subject. has produced An article that
WILL MAKE HAIR GROW,
and which, by its use as Hair Dressing, will
eftectually and always prevent its loss-even to
extreme old age
Happily. the AMYGDALINE, while possessing
these virtues is most delightful and agreeable
preparation far surprising all the so called Hair
Restoratives of the day, that are made to be
agreeable without regard to their virtue
The Hair, when diseased becomes harsh and
dry. and commences to turn grey. which is caus-
ed by the non-secretiOn, by the capillary glands
of q peculiar oil. 1t has heretofore been thought
and believed that if the glands were stimulated
into action. they would still givea sufficient sup
ply Of nOurishnent to the hair; but, alas! they
forgot one very important law OF nature, viz:
that all stimuIdnts haze their redetiOn, and the
more the glands were stimulated the sooner the
final loss of the much priced locks.
The principle of the Preparation invented by
PROFESSOR CROCKETT is entirely the opposite;-
instead Of stimulating the capillary glands, he
feeds them With the substance they require, and,
in turn, the Hair is fed by them OH the same
principle as giving water to a flower.
PROFESSOR CROCKETT is aware of the fact that
the carpings of the invidiOus will in great
measure prevent many sensible persons from
using the AMYGDALINE; but the day is passed
when great remedy could be cried down by
pseudo. science. All we will say to those who
are tmid about trying new preparations is, that
we strictly guarantee the AMYGDALlNE to be
entirely free from all stimulants, and is as harm
less as filtered water, and can be used on the
smallest infant.
AS A HAIR DRESSING it is unequalled by
any the world has yet produced. 1t keeps the
head entirely free of dandruf eruption. pimples
--imparting to the Hair beautiful glossy soft
ipaI NV |
will also be found both pleasant and useful as
Cosmetiquc, surprising cold cream and lace To-
ions in it's effects; for chaps sore breast and nip
ples we know OF no remedy that is equal to it..
THE PERFUME used is such that d1s Amygda-
line will always retain il, and will not become
rancid by age; In fact IL is perfect in every par
ticular.
PROFESSOR CRocKZrr's ANY6DALINE can be had
of all Druggists and dealers everywhere. Price
so cents. Ask for Crookett's Amygdaline, and
take no other.

Sir: The great difficulty in procuring brandy suff-

Gold Hill daily news. [volume] (Gold Hill, N.T. [Nev.]) 1863-1882, 1864-05-13

The AUSTRALIAN AAeAPoDEs.-In the
natural history of the whole class Of ares
there is nothing more remarkable than the
mode of reproduction of the Magapodes,
to which the talegalla, or, as the Austria
lians call it, the brush turkey, belongs.
Instead Of Matching their eggs by the or
binary method of incubation, in nest,
these birds construct mound of leaves.
grass, moss, or other materials capable of
generating and retaining heat, in which
the eggs are carefully buried, and care
fully watched by the parents until the
young are matured, and issue forth from
this novel Matching machine, stout strong
and so fully feathered as to be capable of
fight on the second or third day Of their
existence. The male bird constructs the
mound, which is generally situated on the
slope of q hill by throwing the leaves and
grass into heap by means of their pow
erful feet. When it has reached height
of about four feet, the birds work together
to reduce it to fat surface, and then be-
gin to excavate depression in the centre;
in this the eggs are deposited as they are
laid, and covered up to a depth of about
fifteen inches by the males, who also
watch the temperature of the heap, very
carefully, almost uncovering the eggs in
very hot weather, and always maintaining
q circular opening in the mound, probably
to insure its thorough ventilation. On the
young bird chipping out of the shell, it re-
mains in the heap for about twelve hours,
without making any effort to escape from
it, being at that time almost as deeply
covered up by the male as the remaining
eggs. On the second day it comes furth,
with its wing g-tea:hers well developed, but
they are enclosed in sheath which soon
bursts, and early in the afternoon returns
to the mound again. where the assiduous
father covers it up, but at lesser depth
than the circle of eggs from which it
emerged in the morning. On the third
day Of its existence, the nursing is capa-
BILE of strong flight. These birds thrive
remarkably well, and when supplied with
a suficiency of vegetable material, breed
readily in confinement, and are excellent
eating. I have seen nest-mounds of the
brush-turkey in the vicinity of the Malice
scrub, near Inglewood, that contained sew
eral large cart-loads of vegetable matter.
