gloss and freshness Of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, SO that n new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
Of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
ton of dandrutf, which is often so I'M
clearly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy
lustre, and a grateful perfume.

THE POSTAL CARD MANUFACTURERS.

The Postoffice Department is having
trouble with the manufacturers of Postal
Cards, which is likely to result in incon-
venience to the public. The Postmaster
General demands that the cards shall be
printed on letter paper. Tt is understood
that the Company having the contract for
manufacturing the cards cannot make
them at the price now paid, without losing
money, and the Postmaster General is
making Investigations with a view of re-
voking the contract, if matters should turn
out as they are represented. Time will be
given the company to comply, and if they
should fail TODD so, other provisions will
be made. In the mean time, if the supply
of cards should fail entirely for season,
we will not be surprised. - g.
