require to be as rich or SO active as for

differences, in less degree, may exist
in different parts of the same country,

acteristies of nature which exist in the

1t follows that it would not be profitable
to keep hens after their fourth year, as
their produce will not pay for their keeping,
except when they are of valuable and
scarce breed.
TO begin with, we may doubt the
possibility of making any accurate
count of the number of ovisacs in the
ovaries, or of affirming that no new
ones make their appearance out of
minute germs or cells in the course of
the life of the hen.
In the next place, such limitation
must have reference to the actual con-
stitution of the fowl, and this either in
its wild or tame condition. If to the
former the number of ovisacs, even if
definitely ascertained, can have no con-
nection whatever with the real habit of
the hen, since she lays in a wild state
only as many eggs as she can cover; if
to the tame fowl, it is strange to find so
definite rule laid down for an animal
that is, in the highest degree, Of an
artificial character, and whose nature is,
in so many points, constantly being
remade.

Every year increases the populari-
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is 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 HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruff, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, 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
will create a new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most eco
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, MD,
State Assayer of Massachusetts,, says,
"The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;
