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 dandruf, 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 10 their normal vigor, and
will create 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 n 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"

A WONDERFUL RECOvERY.-The AL

toona Penn "Mirror" has the following:
A young lady of Harrisburg, Miss Min
ME H. Walters, spoke in one of the prayer
meetings of the Oakville Cumberland
county, M. E. camp-meeting, which ended
Friday, relating remarkable cure, which
she attributes directly to the special lntdr-
position of Christ The occurrence, rela-
ted by the lady in detail in a private con-
verSation, is to the effect that she was
afflicted With spinal disease so serious
that she could scarcely move finger, and
she was confined to couci. purposely
suited for the disease. Nearly two years
ago she became convinced that she needed
closer conservation to Christ; i'll other
words, she desired. the blessings OF sanctl-
fication, so prominent i'll Che Methodist
belief. She prayed earnestly without avail.
Something seemed to tell her that conse-
Grafton Of body as we'll as soul was re-
quired, and it was revealed to her that she
would be healed. Thirteen months passed,
and no result On the Goth of January
last she once more resolved to pray more
earnestly for the fulfllment Of the reveal
ton. Whilst praying the promise came
to hel, "Whatsoeyer thou wilt. ask and it
shall be given.' She prayed first for heart
purity, and next for bodily health. The
words came, "Rise up and walks" and to
her great relief she found herself in appar
ent health. The doctor next morning
found her restored to health without any
need of medical attendance. Her state
ment was corroborated by four other per-
sons acquainted with the circumstances.
who rejoice with her over her restoration
to health, which she unWaveringly believes
to have resulted from the stretching forth
of Christ's hand in reward for her great
faith

CoNCILIATIoN.-Ata recent meeting of
the Norfolk (Va.) Light Artillery Blues,
Gen. VIM. F. Barry, commandant Of For
tress Monroe, was unanimously elected an
honorary member of the company. In &C
knowledging the compliment, Gen. Barry
expresses his high appreciation of the
honor conferred, as we'll as of the motives
which inspired the action of the Blues.
He INDUCES the hope that the bitter memo
ries of the late civil war may speedily pass
into oblivion, and concludes: GAS brother
artillerymen, let us hope and pray that our
gus may never be pointed at each other,
but rather, should dire necessity ever again
draw us upon the field of battle, may we
feel assured that our 'guidons' will be az
rayed upon the same line and our guns
pointed only at common enemy"

The Poor RICH MANA singular case
of ''the ruling passion strong in death'' is
narrated in a New York paper. An old
clergyman in one Of the Hudson river towns
recently died, as was supposed, in great
poverty. He accepted charitable contri-
buttons just before death, and he was
buried at the expense Of others. In his
trunk was found will and evidences Of
property to the extent Of nearly 100000
The will distributed the rooney among
various charitable institutions, principally
in Canada and England, but the old man
as pauper and the old man rich were
two different persons, and relatives, and
a move for the coveted dollars. The will
has been set aside as irregular and invalid,
but how the property will be divided is as
yet unknown.

A WILD Boy CAUGHT.-A gentleman
arrived from Marcos yesterday land brought
the news of the capture CT a wild boy Il
few miles from that place. The boy was
first discovered wallowing in a pond of
shallow water, and when approached he
broke like quarter-horse, running about
a mile before he could be overtaken by
men on ponies. Riding up near, the boy
was lassoed. when Il fierce contest ensued,
the strange being striking, kicking and
lunging about in most fearful manner,
and apparently being frightened almost to
death. Finally he was overpoweIed, tied,
and taken to the house of the man who
first discovered him. His body was cover
ed with hair about four inches long, and
from size and appearance he is supposed
to be about twelve wears old. Heis unable
to talk, but possesses reasoning powers,
and now follows his captor about like a
dog.-Austin (Isras) Statesman.
