youth. Thin hair is thickened, fall
ing hair checked, and badness often,
though not always, cured by it's
use. Nothing can restore the hair
where the follicles arc destroyed. or
the glands atrophied and decayed;
but such as remain can be saved by
this application, and stimulated into

A GOOD SUGGESTION.

Editor Argus:
,ho address of the Hon. VIM. G.
Brown, before the late Teachers County
Institute, on tho Constitution of the Uni
ted States, was among the most interest
ing lectures l ever listened 10; and no
one present could doubt the very gen
eral satisfac ion il gave to the large, at
tentive and intelligen. audience that
heard him.
As young member OF the Kingwood
bar l would bo very glad to have the
benefit of "A few lectures from Mr.. Brown,
on legal SUBJECTS; and from my knowl.
edge of tn, deep interest that gentleman
takes in the young members Of the pro-
fession, he would meet us from time to
time, if requested, and give Us the bene
fit of his great experience and learning
in the law.
/ suggest that the members of our bar
meet Saturday evening, the 18th inst,
and organize "A society for the discussion
of legal subjects, and requos Mr.. Brown
To deliver series of lectures before us
on such legal subjects as no may deem
proper and p rtinent.
