The GREAT HAIR PRODUCER .-Hair Oils,
Pomatums and Pomades have had their day. They
belong to the musIy past. Nobody that understands
the chemistry of the hair and the philosophy of its
growth thinks of using them. Instead of clogging
the pores of the scalp with thick onguents, and thus
obstructing the insensible perspiration which is es-
sential to the health of the fbers, we now tone the
surface of the head with an invigorating application
which penetrates to the roots of the hair and stimu-
lates them in the same way that the fertilizing agents
spread over the meadows stimulate the grass roots
and cause the blades to spring up in myriads. coating
the earth with verdure. The invigorant best adapted
to this purpose is LYON's KATHAIRoN It may well
be called the fertilizer of the head. To the barren
scalp it communicates vegetative power. If the hair
is dropping out, or becoming dry and withered, t ar
rests the process of dilapidation or blight. The hair
thickens. and becomes glossy and flexible, under its
genial operation, and as a dressing it is unapproached
by any preparation that has yet been LAID on the
toilet of Fa5hion.-CCom.
~CRIsrADoRo's EXCELSIOR HAIR DYE is the
most sure and complete preparation of its kind in the

ment and reluctantly, because il is part of the
whole, and should be judged in connection with
the whole work rather than by itself.
When you look at it, you will see that instead
of one main avenue there are two, and a bride
or foot path. In order 10 show all the beauty OF
your lake shore, the avenue must sometimes
approach TO and at Others recede from the lake;
sometimes the branches should unite in one
wide road, sometimes divide. This is the more
necessary because of the great irregularity of
surface, which will make n single broad avenue
in all places too costly, and would often be i'm
practicable without cutting and filling, which
would ruin the natural surface. You will see, too.
that have carried the upper avenue part OF the
way beyond the 500 foot line, and this because
ofthe high hills which can be best crossed by a
bridge at the point over the brook this brook

| asylum trustees, adding to the beauty of their
grounds and giving you a waterfall which
should be conducted down over natural fall of
NOISY rocks, and also forming head Tor two or
more fountains of considerable size. As the av-
cnuc in some places lies far within the 500 feet,
the asylum loses nothing and can well afford
the land that take. This avenue, which is the
main one, though only five-cighths of its width,
should cross the Shrewsbury road on a bridge
and reunite with the lower branch after it leaves
the hotel. The vicinity Of the hotel and steam
boat and the regatta ground, will make this
section a iavorite resort for picnic and other
parties, for whom | have provided, as the plan
shows.
The lower branch of the avenue enters at
grade, but requires cutting of the hill, which,
with the change of surface to obliterate the old
gravel pit, will kill most of the trees at that
point, but do not see how it can be very well
helped without unduy sacrificing the character
and beauty of the entrance at that point. will

g Geneva Arbitration.


New YORK, August GA Geneva special
says: As the arbitration progresses the proba-
bilites increase that the verdict will be in the
form of declaration of her general responsible
ity for the acts of the confederate cruisers and
an award of the gross amount Of the damages of
some magnitude, thus 0bviating a resort to a
board of assessors. The American counsel ap-
parently endeavor to secure this instead of de-
tailed award. The Judgment of the court ON
each particular ship is therefore of less conse-
quence than IL otherwise would have been but
there is reason to believe that the case of the
Georgia is the weakest, and has been practically
abandoned The case Of the Shenandoah, how.
ever, is pressed closely. Indemnity for the loss
to the whaling feet is especially urged The
discussion proceeds faster than was generally
expected. The English counsel give particular
emphasis to the argument that the tribunal, I'M
der the treaty of Washington, has no right to
explain the conduct of England in her execution
Of the municipal law, and they maintain that no
nation is responsible TO another for its internal
administration.
