AN ESSENTIAL OF LovELINFss.-To be en-
tirely beautiful the hair should be abundant
and lustrous. This is absolutely essential to
complete loyeliness. The most regular features,
the most brilliant complexion and pearliest
teeth fail of their due effect if the hair be
thin, dry or harsh. On the contrary the plain
est face, if it be but surmounted by luxurian
and silken tresse., is apt to impress the behold
er with sense of actual beauty That CROWN
ing ornament of her sex is, happily, within the
reach of lovely woman, and being as discrim-
mating as she is lovely, she long ago discovered
that LYONS KATHAIRoN was the sure means of
securing it. No preparation for the Hair ever
enjoyed 1.-THE of its popularity, and no won
der, since it produced such gratifying results.
Applied to the waste and barren places of the
scalp, it fructifes and enriches them with a
new and ample growth. 1t is not of course,
pretended that it will do this if the ca
pacty for reproduction is extiact, but so long
as it remains that wonderful rehabilitant will
assuredly propagate the germ of the hair into
life and activity. au19eod1w&w1t

pronounced in the widespread endorsement
which it received from physicians, veterinary

CURIosITIEs OF LHE EARTH.-At the
city of Modena, in Italy. and about four
miles around it, wherever the earth is
dug, when the workman arrived at a dis
lance of sixty-three feet, they came to a
bed or chalk, which they bore with an
auger five feet deep. They then with
drew from the pit before the auger is re-
moved, and upon its extraction the water
bursts through the aperture with great
violence, aud quickly fills this newly
made well, which continues full, and is
affected neither by rains or droughts. But
what is most remarkable in this operation
are the layers of earth as we descend.
At the depth of fourteen feet are found
the ruins of an ancient city, paved streets,
houses. floors, and different pieces of mo-
sale work. Under this is found a soft,
oozy earth, made up Of vegetables, and
twenty six feet deep, large trees entire,
such as walnut trees with the walnuts
still sticking to the stem, and the leaves
and branches in a perfect state of preser-
walton. At twenty-eight feet deep, a soft
chalk isfound, mixed with a large guam
tity of shells and this bed is eleven feet
Thick. Under this, Vegetables are again

Keep Straight Ahead.

Pay no attention to SANDERS or gossip
mongers. Keep straight on in your course,
and let your baekbiting die the death of
neglect. What is the use of lying awake
Of nights brooding over the remark OF
some false friend that ran through your
brain like fork lightning. What's the
use of getting into a worry and fret over
gossip that has been set afoat to your dis
advantage by some meddlesome busy
body who has more time than character ?
These things cannot permanently injure
you, unless, indeed, you take notice of
them, and in combating them give them
character and standing.
IfIwhat Is said about youis true get your
self right at once if false, let it go for
what it will fetch z If a bee stings you
would you &C to the hive and destroy it?
Would not q thousand come upon O /?
1t is wisdom to say little respecting the in
juries you have received. We are gen.
orally losers in the end if stop to refute
all the ~backbitings and gossippings we
may hear by the way. They are annoy
ing, it is true, but not dangerous, so long
as we do not stop to expostulate and scold.
Our characters are formed and sustained
by ourselves, and by our W actions and
purposes, and not by others. Let us
bear in mind that "calumniators
may. usually be trusted to time, and the
slow but steady justice of public opinion"
