Mr.. EDITOR ;-While party were out fish
ing on Damariscotta Pond, a squall struck the
boat, filling it with water. They were some
quarter of mile from the shore. One of them
being unable to swim, hung to the boat, which
was about to sink, when Fred Brann, of East
Boston, coming along the shore and seeing
the peril that he was in, plunged in, at the
same time saying that he could not see any
one die in such way and not try TO help
him. When he got to the boat the man was
about to sink, and catching him by the hair
he swan to the shore with him on his back.
The heroism of Mr.. Brann should never be for
gotten by the friends of him that was abo ut to
find watery grave. Mr.. Brann said that he
did not want anything said, for fear that some
would say that he was trying to make folks
think that he did it for the name. We are
informed that Mr.. Brann saved the life of a
boy some years ago in the Sheepscott river.

This is an age Of inquiry and people are
beginning to realize the magnitude of the
evil caused by the use of injurious compounds
FOR the hair, which are prepared and forced
into market, by men who are not practical
physicians, and who may not be aware of the
injury they are producing. These prepara-
lions have been analysed by competent chem
lists, and shown to contain poisonous SUBJ
stances, causing Nervousness, Headache, Par
alysis, and often fatal results.
| In contrast with such injurious articles, we
call attention to the Hair Restorer prepared
by DR.. R. Greene, Superintendent of the Bos-
ton Medical Institute, who has been a sue
cessful physician in Boston for more than o
quarter of a century. DR.. Greene uses Veg
etable Remedies only, and can assure the pub
lie that this Hair Restorer will do all that is
claimed for it, without accessibility of injury.
81 hare tested sample of DR.. Greene's Hair
Restorer, and find that no poisonous metals or
| injurious matters erist in it,
C. T. JACKSON, State Assayer."
The use of this Hair Restorer for twenty
FIVE years has tested its superiority as dress
ing, and its power to preserve the hair and
scalp in a healthy condition. It removes
dandruff, prevents the hair from falling off,
preserves its natural color, restores it when
prematurely gray, renders it soft and glossy,
promotes its healthy growth, and is the best
dressing ever discovered. While other prep
arations are sold at almost any price, DR..
| Greene's Hair Restorer has sustained its good
qualities, its price, and its reputation. Il is
prepared by DR.. r. Greene at the Medical In
stitute, "a Temple Place, Boston, and sold at
81 per bottle, or six for SIS, or sent by ex-
press to any part Of the country. Pamphlet

Barnum's exhibition yesterday was a sue

show by any other name would be as good,
but it would not draw" half so we'll Early
in the forenoon, vehicles of all patterns and
capacities, filled with men, women and chill
dren, began to pour into the city from the ten
or twelve converging highways, and the end Of
the procession hardly seemed to arrive much
before the hour of entertainment. There are
great many people in the rural districts,
whether they raise anything or not. The
crop of humans has at some time been im-
mense, greatly to Barnum's profit this year.
When counting up his gains the somewhat il
lustrious p. 7. b. will have reason to think
kindly of the Capital OF Maine. The merits
of the exhibition are not remarkably extra
ordinary, though they are above the average.

will be another great multitude to see the
