 REPARAToR CAPILLI.
 For restoring hair upoz bald heads (from whatever cause it may have fallen out) and forcing growth of hair upon the face, it has no equal. It will force the beard to grow up- on the smoothest face in from five to eight weeks, or hair upon bald heads in from two to three months. A few ignorant practitioners have asserted that there is nothing that will force or hasten the growth of the hair or beard. Their assertions are false, as thousands of liy- ing witnesses from their own experienced can bear witness. But many will say, how are we to distinguish the genuine from the spuriousg It certainly is difficult, as nine-tenths of the Preparations advertised for the hair and beard are entirely worthless, and you al- ready may have thrown away large amounts in their purchase. To osuch we would say, try the Reparator Capilli ir will cost you nothing unless it fully comes up to our representations II your Druggist does not keep it. send ua enc dollar and we will forward it, postpaid. to- gether with receipt for the money, which will be returned you on application. providing entire satisfaction is not given.

I felt as though could hardly wait to get ashore. to entreat you to introduce it into the ship chandlery stores. that it may find it's way to those who suffer upon the mighty deep from sea-sickness, If captains who take their families with them or carry passengers, should try it for once, they would never be willing to voyage with out it. --.,

THE PROvISCE OF NEwsPAPERS.-Iti Is
unreasonable to expect that the public
press will always publish only such things
as We, individually. shall like. A person
of strictly religious habits and tastes will!
be offended il he sees in newspaper the
account of prize fight. or of something
obscene and sinful. He iorgets that the
newspaper is hut the reflection OF the world
at large and if he is SO fastidious. he
should retire altogether from life. for in a
single street he will find, at any given hour
of the day, what will offend almost all his
senses. He need not read what he consid-
ers to be objectionable in like manner
he need not eat at a table d'hote any high
IT, seasoned dish. He may not like vem-
sou and game, high. Let him order sone-
thing to his taste-a veal outlet without
sauce. But my Lady Gndiva may like
few Of the in delicacies Of the season. and
Lord Coventry may have stomach for
ANYTHING. A newspaper would have few
readers were its dishes of news to consist
solely of pous pastry and tlimsy pu.fs,-
While the tone of newspaper Is moral,
the public cannot complain. The music
of an organ may be of the purest charac-
ter. though the organ itself, and the organ
grinder likewise, may sometimes show
symptoms of the mud aud filth that art
picked up by or scattered upon then
throughout the ramhlngs of the day. Ia
the pure all things are pure, and To tind
fault with newspaper for every mice nj
f,nse" is to display the hypocrisy of !
prudc, or the Stiffness of an ignoramns.
