REPARATOR CAYaLAT.


 Tor restoring hair upon bald heads, (irom %hateser cause it may have fallen oui) and forcing growth of hair upon the face. 1t has no equal. It will force the beard to grow upon the smoothest face, in from five to eight weeks, or hair upon bald heads in from two to three months few ignorant practition- CTS have asserted that there is nothing that will force or hasten the growth of the hair or beard. Their assertions are false, as thous- snds of living witnesses (from their own ex- perienoe) can bear witness. But many will say. how are we to distinguish the genuine from the spurious? It certainly is difficult, as nine tenths of the different Preparations advertised for the hair and beard are entirely worthless, and you may have already thrown away large amounts in their purchase. To such we would say, try the Reparator capilli; i; it will cost you nothing unless it fully comes up to our representations. If your Druggist does not keep it, send us one dollar and we will forward it, postpaid, together with a re- eeipt for the money, which will be returned you on application, providing entire satisfac- ton is not gvea.

A fair little girl sat under tree
Sewing as long as her eyes could see
Then smoothed her work and folded it right,
And said, "Dsar work good night, good nightP'
Such a number of rocks came over her head,
Crying "cawl cawP' on their way to bed
She said, as she watched their curious fight
Little black thingsI good night, good nightP'
The horses neiQhed and the oxen lowed
the sheep's "bleatl bleatl" came over the road
All seeming to say, with quiet delight,
"Good little girl good night, good nightW
She did not say to the sun, "Geod nightP'
Though she saw him there like a ball of light
For she knew be had gods time tn keep,
All over the world, and never could sleep.
Tne tall pink foxglove bowed his head,
The violet curtsied and went to bed;
And good little Lucy tied up her hair,
md said on her knees her favorite prayer.
Aud while on her pillow she softly lay,
She knew nothing more till again it was day;
And all things said to the beautiful sun,
"Good morning. good morning, our work is be-

The Abortion Traffic in New Yor,,.

Yesterday ahernoos Coroner WiIdev..
President Of the Board Of Coroners. and
Mr. Schultz, President of the Board Of
Health, had an interview at the latter named
gentleman's business Office. The topic Of
dlscusslOn-which was not Intended to be
PrlVate-was, OF course, the recent difference
between the Coroners a ID the Registrar Of
Records. The Sanitary Superintendent. said
mr.. Schultz, has knowledge of more than
thirty houses in this city wherein the sole
business transacted is the procuride Of abarr
tions. In the days of the old city inspeotof
nobody interfered with the wholesale abors
tionlsts' but after the organization Of the
Bureau OF Vital Statistics, the undertakes,
were 20 longer able to make intermeuts
without proper certificates, and the frequency
OF applications for burial for deceased infants
at certain houses led TO startling discoveries
-Four deaths of infants having been reported
In oue house in a single day, Registrar Har-
ris ordered an investigation, and the inspeo.
tors found the mansion full of Young and
middleNaged women from all parts Of the
country, all either far advanced in pregnancy
or suffering from operations which had but
recently been performed. Here are the rules:
/. Ladies entering this institution for
confinement are not allowed below the parlor
stairs. -
2 No visitors, male or female, allowed iu
the rooms.
3. Each occupant is expected to keep her
room in order, excepting when disabled BY
sickness. such notice to be sent to the
Madame
A. All persons leaving children at this iu>
shtution can have no further claim upon
them, and must never trouble the madame
for said children, as to their whereabouts.
1t is against the existence of such insti.
tutions as this, said President Schultz,
that the Board of Health seeks to strike

observing trickle of stodgy green fluid on

SELLING OFF WAR VEssELs-It is an
nounced that the Government has allowed
the monster iron clad DunderJerg to be sold
to France. Several other IRON clads, it is
stated, have already been sold, and more
are offered for sale. Now, this selling off
our navy is all nOnsense-a penny wise and
pound foolish policy. At an enormous ex.
pense our Government succeeded in building
up ravy, which for defensive purposes has
no equals, and for offensive purposes very
few, if any, superiors. Why should these
vessels all be sold off now, at great sacri>
fee +? There is no telling when we shall be
involved in another war, in which case our
present navy would be of great value to US.
We cannot afford to take the chances of
again wagiug fruitless war for two years.
while waiting to build up a navy for which
the people must be taxed threefold Let US
keep all our vessels which are good for any.
thing; improve those which can be improved,
and thus be ready for any emergency which
may arrive. The surest way to avoid war is
always to be prepared for it. The idea Of
selling the vessels of our navy like so many
pieces of old junk, while all the other first,
class Powers are busily engaged increasing
theirs, is extremely ridiculous.

UNsTAMPED LETTERS Thousands of let
ters, each month, find their way to the dead
letter Office, through the carelessness of
their writers in not afixing stamps. The
losses and delays in business from this are
innumerable. The Chicago Young Mems
Christian Association have hit upon an ex.
cellent expedent to prevent this in that
city. By an arrangement with the Post
master, all unstamped letters are sent for
ward at their expense, with printed label
stating tbatfact, and requesting the recipient,
if inclined, to remember the Association in
such way as to enable it to continue the
good work. Thus far the plan succeeds we'll,
and the receipts from grateful recipients ex-

SHORT DREssEs.-Those ladies who have
supposed that short dresses were coming into
general use for home as well as street wear,
will find that they have been much mistaken
In fact, they will not be worn much in the

which says: I'VE have seen quite num-
Der Of short dresses worn at balls and parties
this season, and, to some, they are very be>
coming, especially when there is pretty
foot and Ancle in the case, but, as general
thing, we do not admire them. For the
street, as walking dresses, they are very ap-
propriate, yet we have it from the highest
authority that they are going out of fashion;
that, in fact, their day is past The latest
style of street dresses are made short, it is
true, but they Just clear the ground"
