CUPID's AMBUscADE.-The sly archer, Love,
shoots his arrows from many coigns of vantage,
but it is doubtful if he delivers his heart-taking
shafts from an ambush with more effect than when
he arms them from the braids and folds and ring
lets of superb head of hair. Ladies who have
not been favored by Nature with this browning
charm Of wouanhood, readily and certainly
increase the volume Of their hair and impart to il
a silken lustre by using Lyons Katharen as
daily dressing; while those whom Providence has
blessed with a superabundance Of this " Glory"
of the sex, can preserve it, undminished, in quan-
tity and undiminished in beauty 10 the latest pc
riod of life. There is a terminating principle in
the Eatharion which literally cOmPeis tie hair to
