Every year increases the ro1u.s.---
ty Of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that i: is
kept fully up to its high STANDARD;
and it is the only reliable and lcricc.-
ed preparation for restoring GAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruff, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishcs
the hair-glands. BY its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal visor, and
will create a new growth, except in
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. A. Hayes, MD,
State Assayer of Massachusetts, says
"The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;
and l consider it the BEST PREPA-
RATION for its intended purposes"

|. Tho season that tries children
souls-aud bodies-is at hand. Tho
cold damp season of early spring, with
its penetrating brcezes that chill the
eutiro system and generate incipient
Group, is already here, and it behooves
every anxious parent to be on the alert
if danger, and perhaps death, would
be averted. Too many parents find
their cbidrens' lives cut eff by tho
want of q little care. Group always
originates in . cold, and in most cases
the cold is caused from exposure Ia
dampncss, either of the clothing or the
atmosphere. In many cases the psi-
mary cause is insufficient or improper
clothing, Especially is this SO with
girls. On this point great responsi
bilty lies with tho mothers, aod
whom q child looses its life either from.

the wilful following of a fashion that
leads to that result, what is il but 10.

Let them remember, also, that though
sickness may sometimes be called

which is forced upon helpless child
is nothing Jess than crime.
