however, does not work well, as will be
seen by the following remarks of a cor
respondent: II have heard Of case of
two poor people having to wait fifteen
years for permission to marry, and
spending two hundred forms on appli-
cations. One of the writers on the sub
ject gives the following instance: An
operative earning twelve shllings
week was engaged to girl earning sew
en-, and owner of house valued ut gl2O
and COW. They applied for permission
10 marry, and were refused; means of
subsistence not assured. Time went on;
they had two children, and still their ap-
nhcaGon was refused on the same
ground. The owner the manufactory
took up their cause and pleaded it him.

fusal was not what was intended by the
government. The official replied curt
~, What does that matter to us: the
Government may have its own ideas on
the subject, but we have ours, and lin
particular am of opinion that such mar
riages are neither right nor useful The
author from whom l quote this adds.
While am writing, my servant girl,
aged fliteen years, comes in dressed for
feast day, and says that her father and
mother are to be married to-day, and
she must henceforth be called by her
fathers name. Twelve times her fifth

A Nenagerie Of Drunkards.

The most foolish predicament a mar
6an get into is to get drunk. In drunk
enness every man shows his strongest
md most ardent passion. There are six
inds Of drunkaTds, and u you win 90
te city drinking places where there
= arc dozen men under the influence OF
liquor, you will he sure to find these six
different characters, representing differ
ont animals:
The first Is ape-drunk. He leaps, and
rings, and yells, and dances, making all
!. sorts of grimaces and cutting up all sorts
OF "monkey-shines" to excite the laugh
ter Of his fellows. Oh, terribly silly Is
the drunken clown!
The second is tiger-drunk. He breaks
the bottle, breaks the chairs, breaks the
heads of fellow caFuassns, and Is full of
blood andthunder. Hi eyes are fred
with venfeance, and his soul raves with
nurderous fury. Ofthis sort are those
k rho abuse their families.
The third IL hog-drunk. He rolls in
1hesdirt on the floor, slobbers and grunts
- in going into the streets makes his !
bed in the first ditch or filthy corner he
may happen to fall into. He is heavy,
! lumpish, and sleepy, and cries, in a
grunting way, for a little more to drink.
The fourth is puppy-drunk. He will
weep for kindness, whine his love, and
hug you in his arms, and kiss you with
his slobbery lips and proclaim how
much he loves you. You are 1.-The best
man he ever saw, and he will lay down
his money or his life for you.
The fifth is owl-drunk. He is wise in his
own conceit. No man must differ with
him for his Stord is law. He is true in
politics, and all matters must be taken
as authority. His arm is the strongest
his voice the sweetest, his horse the
fieetest, his turnips the largest, his town
the finest In the room or land.
The sixth and last animal of our me-
nagerie is the fox-drunk man. He is
crafty, ready to trade horses, and cheat
II he can. Keen to strike a bargain,
leering around with low cunning, peek
ing through cracks, listening under the
caves, watching for some suspicious
thing, sly as fox, sneaking as wolf,
he is the meanest drunkard of them all.

DEPARATOR CAPILLI.

Il
Throw away your false frizzes, your switches your
wig
Destructive of comfort, and not worth fig;
Come aged, come youthful, come ugly and fair,
And rejoice in your own luxuriant hair.
REPARATOR CAPILLI
For restoring hair upon bald heads from whatever
cause il may have fallen OUT and forcing growth
of hair upon the face, it has no equal twill force
the beard to grow upon the smoothest face in from
five to eight weeks hair upon bald heads in from
two to three months. A few ignorant practition-
ers have asserted that there is nothing that will
force or hasten the growth of the hair or beard.
Their assertions are false, thousands of living
witnesses (from their own experience) can bear
witness. But many will say how are we to distln-
guish the genuine from the spurious? 1t certain
y is difficult, ninetenths of the different prep
arations advertised for the hair and beard are
tirely worthless, and you may have already thrown
away large amounts in their purchase. To such
would say, try the Reparator Capi; it will cost
you nothing un ess it fully comes up to our repre-
sentaons. If your druggist does not keep it, send
us one dollar and will forward it, postpaid, to-
gether with a receipt for the money which will be
returned you on application, provided entire sat
isfaction is not given. Address
