The poor of New York have many discom
forts, but in some respects they are favored
above their brethren in other cities. The six
Tree baths, which are visited each day by more
than thirty thousand people, are an incalcula-
Die advantage, both as regards health and COM
Tort. The wOrkingman can take his plunge be-
lore or after his labor, the baths being reserved
exclusively for his enjoyment from to a. m.
and from TO p. m, though open all day This
system, IS the best antidOte in the world for the
enectS OF tenement life. We suppose that
some day the capital of the nation will also es-
taDllSh these inexpensive Injuries Tor all
classes, and the sooner the better The intro
PRODUCTION of free baths merely as a sanitary
measure, would commend Itself on the score
of economy.

SOMETHING REMARKABLE.
Glad Tfdings to BaId-headed Men,

The other day Mr.. NJ. Dosing. Of Pc.
trolia, Pa, stepped into McClarran's Phar.
macy, on the corner of Sixth Avenue and
Smithfeld street, Pittsburg, and purchased
a bottle of Carboline. While there he ex.
hibited the top of his head, which bore evi.
dence of once being bald, but which at
present, from the use of Carboline, as he
states, is completely covered with a strong
crop of new hair, fully one inch long. Prac.
teal tests of this wonderful hair restorer
are being made daily, and its remarkable
virtues found to far exceed anything ever
before introduced. 1t has been demon
strated that Carboline does work great
wonders in giving the bald head a luxur-
liant growth of hair. 1t is sold by all drug
gists.

Iowa lying west and north of it. The
town has some manufactures already.
These are all prosperous, but the field
is far from occupied. The neigh
borhood of Mexico abounds in raw
material. Besides wood, coal and
limestone, there are wool, flax, castor
beans, grain, hay, tobacco, fire clay.
with cattle and pork and other natur.
al products. Oui great need is skill.
ed and willing hands to take hold o.
these things and turn them to greater
advantage.
Among the further sources of EN-.
ploymeut that could be successfully
lnaugurated in and around Mexico.
are those that would naturally spring
from increased production, and more
fitting application of wool, tobacco,
hides, wood and iron. Among these
are manufacturers of boots and shoes,
WOODEN goods, flour, meal, wagons.
agricultural implements, etc. We
need a foundry badly. One in the
hands of a couple of skilled mechan.
les could be kept busy on repairs
alone. A pottery could do well here.
Lime might be burned to great adj
vantage in this vicinity. Starch, ow-
ing to the unlimited abundance and
the cheapness of corn, can be produc-
sd to far greater advantage than the
product is made further east. There
are other openings that could easily
give profitable employment to several
hundred operatives and as many hun
dreds of thousands of dollars capital.
Mexico is as capable of being made
a manufacturing center as are any Of
those thriving cities that crowd the
avenues of transportation leading
into New York City. If cotton Can
be bought in st. Louis and carried to
New England and brougt back in
goods, there is no earthly reason why
this place could not successfully CON-
pete in such trade. The same may
be said of any other manufactures.
