Thin hair is thickened, falling hair
checked, and badness often, though
not always, cured by its use. Moth
ing can restore the hair where the
folliclos are destroyed, or the glands
atrophied and decayed. But such as
remain can be saved for usefulness
by this application. Instead Of foul

will keep it clean and vigorous. Its
occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling of, and
consequently prevent badness. Free
from those dcleterious substances
which make some preparations dam

Vigor can only benefit but not harm
it, If wanted merely for o

A Georgetown View OF the Water
Question.

Mr.. Editor:-The citizens of this District are
at present very much, and very Justly, excited
by our d. c. Commissioners, under the late
legislation Of Congress. 1t is very evident that
this whole water question needs a thorough in-
yestigation, as the tax imposed for the use of
the water Is contrary to the original design of
Congress-it having been given as free gift to
the citizens of this District: The water then is
only tax which the laws OF Congress authorizes
is the cost OF the pipes-a four or siX-inch pipe
to supply any residence, and then the annual
cost OF keeping these pipes in order. This ex-
pense TO the whole District would not amount
TO one-fourth the present annual cost OF the
water registrars Office as can be clearly estab-
llShed. AS some evidence OF this assertion the
outlay for this purpose, made by the corpora
t1On OF Georgetown, after the supply pipes were
alllaid, only amounted to about 81 900 for year.
All receipts from water rents over and ABOVE
the actual cost, as above stated, OF keeping the
pipes In good ORDER, Is clear violation CT tue
law OF Congress- which expressly prohibits any
profit TO be thus derived. The present tax is par
ticulariy unjust to the citizens Of Georgetown.
whose property has been taxed to pay for the
large main laid to Washington, for the use and
benefit OF Washington alone. 1t was also under
stood, as will be seen by reference to the report
OF the experienced and able engineer, originally
In charge OF the Potomac water works, that the
Georgetown property, after paying the four
annual tnstalments, was to be exempt "forever'
from any tax for the use of the water; and this
understanding notsr was subsequently endorsed by
extending the water rents OF Washington over
Georgetown property is an ex post facto, and
justice should influence the Commissioners TO
suspend the collection Of this water tax, in
Georgetown, at least, until the next session OF
Congress, when the whole question can be fully
examined and more justly arranged. The
merely distributing pipes, and these have been
more than paid for by an excessive and unjust
tax OF II cents per square foot on the lots. 1t
is nothing to the Commissioners. as to these
6-inch pipes, how much water any dwelling or
any family draws from them, the cost OF the
6-inch pipes Is not increased by excessive or
scanty use Of water from them; moreover, as
said before, they have been more than paid for
by the water-pipe tax. X. E. G.
