Interesting to "Drummers.''

Mr.. G. W. Reid, representing sugar
and coffee house in Philadelphia, was
arrested yesterday at the instance of
Harvey Mathes, State and County Tax
Collector on Privileges, for doing BUSH
ness as commercial agent" or drum
n,er, without license. The warrant was
issued by Recorder Scales as Justice of
the Peace, and the case was heard this
morning at the Recorders Court. Az
ter a full hearing of the case, the
Recorder fined Mr.. Reid twenty-five
dollars for the city, and bound him over
to appear before the Criminal Court in
the sumgof five hundred dollars. This
is to be made test case, and will be
prosecuted with all the rigor necessary
to define the validity of the law and the
power of the State to enforce it. The
law was passed several months ago, but
has been practically imperative, on
account Of the evasions resorted to by
the shrewd class known as "drummers. "
They generally go to some commission
merchant and get appointed as his
agent, and then go around the city and
sell their goods under such authority
with impunity. Whether such subter-
fuge is legal will soon be ascertained,
and it is intimated that the case will
finally be carried to the Supreme Court.

REVIEWER.

Every year increases the popularity
of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which Is due to merit alone. We can
assure our old patrons that it is kept
fully up to its high standard; and it
is the only reliable and perfected prep
aration for restoring GRAy OR FADED
HAIR to its youthful color, making it
soft, lustrous, and silken. The scalp,
by its use, becomes white and clean.
It removes all eruptions and dandruff,
and, by its tonic properties, prevents
the hair from falling out, as it stimu-
lates and nourishes the hair-glands.
BY its use, the hair grows thicker and
stronger. In badness, it restores the
capillary glands to their normal yigor,
and will create new growth, except
in extreme old age. 1t is the most
economical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications, and
gives the hair q splendid, glossy ap-
pearance. A. A. Hayes, MD, State
Assayer of Massachusetts, says, 1.-THE
constituents are pure, and carefully
selected for excellent quality; and |
consider it the BEST PREPARATION
for its intended purposes"
Sold BY all Druggists. and Dealers IN Mediciaes.
