Every wear increases the Populari-
~ ofthis valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it Is
kept fully up TO It's high standard,
and Is the onlyrcliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
Or FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lastroas, and siIken.
The scalp, by its ii Q, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruif, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out rs it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-elands. BY its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
baldness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create 4 new growth, except i'll
extreme old age. 1t is the most eco
nomical HAIR DREssING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. a. 4. Hayes, MID,
State Assaycr ofAiassachusetts, says,

The Tom Jasper left here Thursday
evening towing the barge Bluebird, both
being heavily ladened, and when at Wolf
island she hit log heap, which caused her
to take in about sixteen inches Of water.
Her pumps were put to work and consid-
erable freight was thrown overheard,
which kept her from sinking over her main
deck. The Common wealth came along
soon after and gave her barge. She was
run over on the island, where she
now lies very badly twisted and 1t 10
thought that it will be impossible to raise
her as she is rather old, besides being in
very bad condition. The object which she
hit is the same tha, sunk the G. v. Kountz

cargo will be damaged. No lives were
lost. Further particulars will be given

when the truth was known. She had but
