guent is big thing. Although in small
cakes, it is nevertheless colossal item.
We tried it. Following the printed direc-
tions given, we made lather and applied
the brush. The lather was mixed in a glass
dish, and in four minutes a beautiful hair,
all shades of color, had started from the
dish. We applied some to our face, and it
took four swift-working BARRIERS to cut
down and NOW away as fast as the beard
grew. We put little on the toe of each
boot, and in an hour they looked like Zou-
ave moustaches. We put some on crow
bar, and it is covered with long, curly hair
like buffalo, and in the coolest weather it
can be used without mittens. A little on
the carriage pole, started the haironit like
moss. We dropped some on the stove, and
as the fire was kindled the hair started
and the hotter the stove became, the faster
grew the hair, till the smell of burnt hair
became so powerful as to drive all from the
room. The stove was set in the barn, and
it can't be seen now as the hair, is literally
stacked upon it. Only one application. A
little applied on a wagon tire has in five
days started vigorous crop, and now the
wagon can be driven over plank road and
not make the least noise, so well are the
wheels covered with soft hair. Only one
application-dollara cake. We skinned a
goose, put on some of the ODgnent, and in
two. hours. the feather grower was envelI
oped in hair like a4squirfel, and was seen
this morning trying to climb shagbark
hickory in the back yard. A little applied
to the inkstanl has given it a coat of bris::
ties, making a splendid pen wiper at little
cost. We applied the lather to tenpenny
nail, and the nail is now the handsomest
lather-brush you ever saw, with a beautiful
growth of soft hair, at the end of it, some
live or SIX feet lin length. Only dollar
cake! Applied to door stones, it does

tunity for all Objectionable matters to settle to
the bottom, while the large quantities of sui
phuric acid from the mining districts mixing
with the water coming from limestone region,
rendered the water exCeedinglg pure. The re-
port, after giving the quantity of water an
nually furnished by the river, the number of
inhabitants to be supplied at Cresent and the
probable number for the next ty years, recon-
mends the building of more reservoirs for the
