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
OK FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and Silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. ltremoves all eruptions
and dandruff, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, rs 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 yigor and
will create a new growth, except in
extreme old are. 1t is the most eco
nomical HAIR DEEssiSG ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. \. y. Hayes, MD,

Maine exceeds the average yield OF the
six largest wheat growing States. VIZ. :

and value not only of New England
but of the six largest potato growing
States outside of New England; that in
the matter of hay our State takes high
marx, and also in oals it exceeds the ya.-
ue per acre Of The six largest Oat pro

may live long, but some old days
OF dear, deep JOY akin to pain
Some suns that set on woodland ways
Will never rise for me again:
by shining sea, and glad, green shore
That frollc waves ran home to kiss,
Some words heard that nevermore
Will thrill Inc with their mystic bliss.
Q love! still throbs your living heart
You have not crossed deaths sulcn tide
A deeper deep holds us apart:
We were more near if you had died
If you had died in those old days
When light was on the shining sea,
And all the fragrant woodland ways
Were paths of hope for you and me.
Dead leaves are in those woodland ways
Cold are the lips that used to kiss:
'Twere idle to recall those days,
Or sigh for all that vanished bliss.
Do you still wear Your old-time grace.
And charm new loves with ancient wie>
Could / but watch your faithless face.
Id know the meaning of your smiles.
