POCKET INHALER.

1t supersedes all other inhaling tubes and con-
triVances. 1t is equally adapted to the mouth
and the nostril. 1t vaporizes and sprays. n o
steam required-no blowing necessary, The
great obstacle to successful treatment by in
haiants, that the bottles and apparatus now used
are complicated and inconvenient is by this Gu
rious little instrument entirely overcome. 1t is
as simple AS Il tin whistle, and may be carried
in the pocket as handily as penknife or pair
Of scissors. No danger of breakngi no posi-.
bity of splitting; always ready, and may be
used in the house or out of doors, lying down or
sitting up, with the same ease and facility as a
cigarette or lady's smelling bottle: For sale by

THEIR STARRY MAJEsT1Es Venus is now
the regnaut queen Of the starry heavens, and
may be seen holding her regal court every even
ing as she slopes gracefully down the western
sky Just now Jupiter contests the honors OF
starry sovereignty With her, and holds his i'm
perial court in the East as the more brilliant
queen retires to her couch in blaze Of sple,ndor
that entirely eclipses the monarch Of the skies.
Jupiter is at present situated in or near the
constellation Leo, or the Lion, not far from
Regulus, its leading brilliant, the first star in
the handle of the Sickle, which makes this
group SO Familiarity known to observers; If the
course of the planet be watched, it will be seen
to retrograde or move backward among, the
stars. This it will continue to do until the
seventeenth Of April, when it will apparently
change its course, and reach the vicinity OF its
present position during the month Of May
Its motion can now be easily traced from Its
vicinity to the star Regulus, which although of
the first magnitude seems comparatively faint
in the presence of his brighter attendant.

their hair 10 such a romantic style that there is
no danger of fellow installing one for mar

BILE they do their hair up on each side OF their
head, something in the shape of two great
wings, or, as it most reminds one, of the wheels
of steamer. The dear creatures look as If
they were just ready to fly. As soon as they
enter the molly bonds of matrimouy they drop
their wings and then their hair hangs in long
