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 prepare
tons have been analysed by competent chem
lists, and shown to contain poisonous sub
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 sue
cessful physician in Boston for more than q
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 possibility Of injury.
al hare tested a 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 healthy condition. 1t 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. It is
prepared by DR.. R. Greene at the Medical In
stitute, "a Temple Place. Boston, and sold at
ST per bottle, or six for S., or sent by ex-
press to any part of the country. Pamphlet
sent free. Address DR.. r. Greene, "a Tenn
pie Place, Boston, Mass.

train for kendalrs Mills, and while on his
way to that place, entered the express car and
stole box containing eighteen watches,
which he secreted about his person, stufing
them into his boots and pockets. He left the
train at Kendalrs Mills. The robbery was not
discovered until just before the train reached
Bangor. Safford's hs bits were known and sus-
picion fell upon him at once. The express agent
telegraphed to chief of Police, w. w. Edwards
of Waterville, who proceeded to Kendall's Mills
and arrested Stafford, brought him to this city,
