Patch Grove Academy.

The Trustees of Patch Grow. Academy
earnestly call the attention CT parents and
teachers TO the claims of this institution, TO
their encouragement and support. 1t has now
the only classical and academic school in this
section OF the State. Organized but few
years, il has constantly increased in the pub
lie confidence and support, and is now estab-
tished on thorough and permanent basis
The policy of the trustees has been TO secure
uniformity in discipline and instruction, and
to avoid frequent change of teachers, so ia
tai TO good scholarship. Superior facilities
are presented for advanced courses of study.
The qualification of teachers for common
schools is a subject of special attention. In
this respect, it is believed this school ranks
among the best in the state. The trustees
take pleasure in announcing that the services
of Mr.. and Mrs. Newcomb, so long and ia
vorably known in connection with the school,
have been secured for the next term, and that
during the Winter term the institution, as
heretofore, will be under the immediate charge
Of Prof W. B. Clark, who has been at the
head of the institution since its foundation.
The attention of those desiring "a thorough
education, is called to this school before going
TO other and distant portions of the state. Ii
home institutions are as good as those at a
distsnce, and secured at much less expense,
they ought first to be supported.
Letters addressed to &. X. Newcomb or
William Humphrey, President of the Board,
will ceceive prompt reply.

DREssINa FOR rHE HAIR.-Th,

DRESSING FOR THE HAIR.-The
Boston Journal of Chemistry calls
attention to the different preparations
sold by druggists for dressing the
hair. 1t tells US that all the oils and
greasy pomades with euphonious
names are manufactured from lard
oil and simple lard. Bears grease is
the most filthy of all animal fats, and
it is safe to say that the genuine stuff
is but rarely or never sold by the
druggists. Castor oil and cologne
spirits make good and cheap dress
ing, The oil derived from the castor
bean possesses peculiar properties
which admirably adapt it for use on
tho hair. The Journal concludes:
ga cheap and very good dressing
is made by dissolving four ounces of
perfectly pure dense glycerine in
twelve ounces ofrose water. Glycer-
inc evaporates only at high tempera-
lures and, therefore, under its influ-
ence the hair is retained in q moist
condition for long time. As class,
the vegetable oils are better for the
hair than animal oils. They do not
become rancid and offensive so rap
idly and they are subject to differ
ent and less Objectionable chemical
changes. Olive oil, and that derived
from cocoanut, have been largely
employed, but they are far inferior
in every respect to that from the cas-
tor bean.
Do not use any oils whatever, is
the best advice. Those men and
women having the finest and gloss
lest suits ofhair, simply use soft wat
or, washing the head every few days
with pure CASTLE soap. But as we
do not expect every body to subcribe
to this formula, it is we'll to caution
the general public against the indis-
criminate use appropriations sold for
the hair"

A BAD AFFAIR AT WooDMAN.-
From a corrsspondecc in the Bosco-

Martin with family consisting of
wife and four small children left
Muscoda on the 9Th inst. They
travelled with an OK team, and when
near Woodman by the river the oxen
plunged for the water, carrying fam
lily and all into the stream. As the
wagon went in the woman pitched
the children out and barely succeeded
in saving them and herself from a
watery grave. The driver succeeded
in getting ashore the cattle, but
the wagon with the family goods
flosted down the stream. Part OF
the wagon and somc bedding were
overhauIed below Wauzeka, but most
Of the goods were lost.

BoUNTIEs AND PENsIoNs.-The
Washington correspondent of the
Philadelphia Press writes: "a state
ment published in several papers,
that the time for additional bounty
expires in December next is strictly
correct. The law passed at the last
session extending the time for filing
additional bounty claims, applies
only to the act of July 20, 1866, and
by that act those who served two
full years are entitled to $50, and
those who served three years 500.
No new grant of bounty was made
at the last session, but only an extern
sion of time for filing claims, so that
those not informed of the law shall
not be cut off on account of failure
to apply heretofore. In the case of
pensions, applications. can be filed at
any time, but claims filed FIVE years
after discharge or death date from
the time Of the filing of the last pa
pers in the case, except in the case
Of minors and dependent fathers.
Ia the case of minors. If filed within
five years of the date of the appoint

A CARD.-Many people hesitate
to try remedy for a disease, on &C
count of the expense, connected
with the uncertainty of it's benefit
ing them while at the same time
had they confidence in that remedy,
the expense would be the least OBJ
lection. With this fact in view, we
make the following proposition
Any person suffering with a cold
cough or sore throat, that will cal
at my store and purchase a bottle Of
Halls Cough Cordial, use one hall
of it, and if they then conclude thai
it is doing them no good, they can
return the bottle and then receive

CoRREcTIoN.-In noticing, q few
weeks since, the accident that oc-
Cured by horse running away at
Mr.. Bidgood's, in Liberty, when his
child received fatal injuries, we erred
in stating that Mr.. b. was in charge
of the team. The facts as related by
him are that hired boy drove the
team with load of corn to point
near the house, and halted on the
side hill. He unhitched, carelessIy
neglecting one of the tugs. In the
meantime the lit lie girl had climbed
upon one of the horses to ride to the
barn, and when the team started the
wagon rushed on the horses. Mr.
Bidgood was in no way to blame ioI
the accident.
