With pleasure We read your commenda.
tory article published short time since,
respecting the popular and almost indispen.
sable Preparation now so widely known as
"Barrett's Vegetable Hair, Restorative
Having used this preparation ever since its
discovery we feel more than an ordinary
interest in its success, and are pleased to
learn that it is generally used and apprcci-
ated throughout the entire country.
Unlike most of the dirty, nasty, sticky pasty
nostrums put up and sold as Hair Restora.
tive and Dressing, this compound not only
! completely restores the hair to its original
tcotor, but surpasses all others in many. in.
portant points. We have studied its effect
as compared with others, and find it's supe-
riori'y lies chiefly in the following acsomrp-
lishments -
First-t i. sure to restor ,he hair to it's
youthful beauty, prodac ing one DISTINCT
shade while others leave the hair in many
varied colors. .
Secohd-When restored, the color is made
fast, and the hair does no, fade into it's for
Der diseolored appearance.
Third--lt promotes growth wien others
fai! to reproduce a.single haiftaeE
Fourth-It acts directly upon ihc roots and
not IS dye.
F.fth--lt cures all Diseases Of III. scalp
and renoyes dandruf aid hair eaters
sixth-Being a vegetable conpeud it is
perfectly harmless.
seventh-It is highly persumed and fres
from all dirty and gummy substances.

prietors Of this perfect Preparation; We are
glad to observe asynopsis fits history, and
are gratifed to learn that the extensive sale

She was one of the crafty, hypocritcal kind,
whose hearts are entirely bad, and who gen.

hopeful that the man entered upon new life
after this occurrence. He made no promises,
not even an intimation that he meant to do
so; but have faith to think that the heart

case, will turn to virtlous ways.

ing that the woman had unexpectedly left me,
for reasons best known to herself This was
all the conversation that had with him on
the subject; he never knew what have now

RETURN OF THE DOVE.

Only waste of waters,
Only tideless sea,
Which is not life, which is no. death,
But death is life to me.
Only the years on-coming
Rolling their silent waves
Over the bygone trouble,
Over Life's hidden graYes.
Only drear out-looking
For hope that is long delayed,
And weariful prayer for patience,
And wish that may not be prayed.
What am ever watching?
What can ever see?-
Only dove that is coming
From far-off land to me.
Only branch it is bringing,
Which tells of a clearer day,
And bears me a promise of peace and LII
When the waters have passed away.
