Architects and Builders,
CHARLESTOWN, JEFFERSON COUNTY, VA.

OUR experience in the business which we adver-
Y tise to conduct, and our thorough acquaint-
ance with it in all its branches, enable to assure
the public that any work entrusted to US will be
executed in the most workmanlike manner, and
with the utmost dispatch. Having stood TO their
posts in the Confederate army during the four
years struggle which it so manfully encountered,
they have located in their native county, where
their services are offered in building up the waste
places, and in carrying outpractica reconstruction
Particular attention given at all times to the
drawing of plans and specifications; and IN the
construction of
GEOMETRICAL STAIR WAYS,
where calculation is required, they are confident
that they cannot be surpassed by any workmen In
the Valley of Virginia,
gs6- Being well known in the community, they
deem il unnecessary to say more, than that orders
left for them will receive prompt attention.

Every year increases the popu-
larity of this valuable Hair Prep
aration, which is due to merit
alone. We can assure our old
patrons that it is kept fully up to
its high standard; and it is the on
ly reliable and perfected prepara-
ton for restoring GRAY 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 proper
ties, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. BY its use, the
hair grows thicker and stronger.
In badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most
economical HAIR DRESSING ever
used, as it requires fewer applica-
tons, and gives the hair a splendid,
glossy appearance. A. A. Hayes,
Md, State Assayer of Massachu-
sets, says, "The constituents are
pure, and carefully selected for ex-
cellent quality; and | consider it
the BEST PREPARATION for its
intended purposes"
