3=!leSZS HAIR
RH1xvvu,

Every year increases the POPULAR
" Of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which IL due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAZE to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes al eruptions
and dandruff and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
ont, 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
win create new growth, except in
extreme old age. Il Is the most eco
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair q splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, Md
State Assayer Of Massachusetts,, says,
"The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;
and consider it the BEST PREPA-
RATION for its intended purposes"

If one has not genius for amusing
little children, the power to do it
seems to come only after long sxper-
fence. The difficulty is, with most
people, that they attempt too much
and labor too hard. A very little
thing serves to entertain . child .
long time, and it requires more care
to learn to let . contented child alone
than to contrive new pleasures for
him.

great service to me since, and not
only !, but the babies / have cared
Tor since then, owe good deal to
this piece of advice. And, let me
add. this is not the only hopeful sug-
gestion which have received from
maiden aunts.
Children are made increasingly
restless by confusion Of amusements.
Didn't our great-grandmothers' ba-
bies crow just rs cheerfully from the
quilt on the floor while the grown
people pursued their ordinary avoca-
tions, rs do ours, with m able-bodied
woman to hold them al the time?
1t il not part Of my creed to neg
lect the BARNS, but there may be
such thing as a little wholesome
neglect. Leaving out all the con-
tinual irritating fussing, which is
supposed to be necessary to make
children behave well, there is an i'm
mense amount of energy wasted in
the simple effort to please them.
