RENEWER.

Every year increases the popularity OF this
valuable Hair Preparation; which is due to
that it is kept fully up to it's high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfected pre-
paration for restoring GRAY OR FADED HAIR to
its youthful color, making it soft, lustrous
white and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruff, and, by its tonic properties,
prevents the hair from falling out. as it stimu-
lates and nourishes the hair-glands. By its
use. the hair grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary glands to
their normal yigor, and will create new
growth, except in extreme old age. It is tho
most economical hair DRESSING ever used, as
it requires fewer applications, and gives tho
hair splendid g!ossy appearance. A. A.

carefully selected for excellent quality; and I
consider it tho BEST PREPARATION for its in

we'll, Clark & Co. with commendable rapidity,
and have so far advanced as to allay any fears
that may have been entertained that the Opera
House would not be ready for occupancy by the
time the State Fair is inaugursted. The build.
ing Is being pushed forward as fast as 200 men
can do it, and that portion Of it to be occu-
pied by the Opera House proper will ba rooted
in three weeks, the scaholding for plastering the
ceiling and erecting the roof being already
nearly complete, while the walls of the second
story loom up to near their full height.
In this connection We may state that the same
enterprising contractors will have Holdings re-
burnt block in Chicago finished in three or four
weeks, and the brick work of the Oriental Hall
will be completed in about the same period
This firm has also about finished the excava

We understand that some important improve.
ments and alterations are contemplated with
reference to the head.race of the Illinois river
dam. The gates are to be enlarged to width
Of seventy feet, the race itself to have the same
latera! dimensions. The latter is to be deepened
to depth Of Elk feet below the combing of the
dam. These engagements would, OF course,
vastly increase the available water power, and
afford greater facilities for manufactures that
may be established.
Since the above was written We learn that
operations have begun. and q force of some
twenty men is employed by the company in
carrying out the extensions indicated.
