All Persons who aspire to beauty Of per-
sonal appearance should not neglect that nat
ural accessory, the hair. By many it has been
neglected until the hair has become thin, gray,
or entirely fallen of. Messrs. Hall & Co.,
Nashua, N. H, have produced an effectual
remedy, called Sicilian Hair Renewer, which
cures all diseases of the scalp. This wonder
ful preparation acts upon the glands, which
support and nourish the hair, restores gray
hair to its original color, makes the scalp
white and clean, removes and prevents the
formation Of dandruf and all cutaneous erup-
tons; and, by its tonic and nutritive proper
ties, restores the scalp to healthy stats, and
creates new growth. As dressing, it is un-
surpassed, giving the hair that briliancy SO
much admired by all.-BostOn Commercial.

two o'clock. By the use of a chisel one of the
parlor windows was raised, and the house
breakers admitted with but little trouble.
They made a tour of the lower rooms, and
took an over and under-coat Belonging to Mr.
Close, and god chain belonging to Miss Hat.

An Interesting Sabbath School
Meeting. M. E. Sunday School at
Fremont, uses the international Lesson Ser
ies.' There are twelve lessons in each quar-
ter leaving the thirteenth Sabbath for re-
view of the quarters lessons. The past quar-
ser's lessons were in the book of Genesis, COM
mencing with the creation, following down the
history of the race. through the faH, the prom
ised redemption, the sacrifice of Abel, the
food, the call of Abram, and down the history
of his family; closing the quarter with Jacob
at Bethel The last Sabbath in March would
have been the regular time for the review, but
in consequence of bad weather it was postpon-
ed until last Sabbath evening.
There was O large audience collected TO hear
the review. It was finely conducted by Mr..
W. w. Ross, the Superintendent The chill
dren Of the school answered with remarkable
promptness, showing that the labors of the
Superintendent and teachers during the quar-
ter had been rewarded at least by fixing the
main facts of Bible history in the minds Of
the pupils. at the close of the review Mr..
Ross delivered very interesting lecture
upon the two mountains brought prominently
to notice IN lessons of the quarter-Ararai
and Moriah This lecture was not only ap.
propriate to the occasion, but was replete with
thrilling interest. The description of the
Judgment Of God around Ararat was truly
grand. while that of the offering of Isaac by
his father Abram was touchingly pathetic.
There are more sacred mountains that have
been the scenes OF wonderful events. We ex-
pect lectures on them from the same source in
the future. GERsRoM LEASE.
