BURNETT's COCAINE, THE BEST OF ALL
HAIR DREssNGs.-It allays irritation, re-
moves all tendency TO dandrlff, and invigo-
rates the action Of the capilafes in the
highest degree, thus promoting vigorous
and healthy growth OF hair. Its effect upon
the glossiness and richness of the hair is such
as cannot be surpassed.
Burnetfs Flavoring Extracts are the best.

Many families pride themselves on tI,efr noble

her cannot greatly injure him. Blu the
spirit in which he regards the tendency
| in his nature which looks to woman for
the trucst support in life, and the sys-
tcmatc hardening OF those qualitis in
him which reach out instinctively the
feminine side Of humanity, are soul
hurts, which are not healed when the
pain of the deceived love has passed.
His Judgment of the whole sex cannot
fail to be biased by his experience OF
the woman who has most deeply inter-
estcd him. Thus it is that the coqptte,
by lowering the whole standar, OF
womanhood in the eyes of man, I'M lres
her own sex rs well as the other.
The forms of coquetry are infinitely
varied, and some of them are much
more reprchensible than others. The
woman who undertakes conquests SIM
ply for displaying at the wheels of her
chariot the captive she holds by the
rosy bonds of love, is the commnest
type. AS her coquetry is OF the most
patent kind, its wounds are rarely Sc
we're or lasting, and yet there is 4 GER
tain vulgarity about this spirit of 'on-
quest which makes this type of women
dangerous to both men and women.
A more subtle and disastrous ililu-
cnce is welded by the woman wD is
bent on the scientific analysis of the
various effects produced by the telder
passion on men of different character
and nature. She has little pigeon-lDles
marked with different characteristic
names. and into these she classics
every new specimen. She is apt Don
to discover that the pigeon-holes nay
be very few, and that nearly all the
men she meets will fit exactly intoone
or another of them. When she has ar
rived at this conclusion she is satisfied;
two or three good specimens of every
sort having been coolly Analysed and
properly pigeon-holed. 1t is variety
and not quantity she desires, and law
ing already become quite familiar
with the manner in which ;er-
tain species of the genus homo is af-
fected by the greatest OF passions,
she allows many possible victims to
pass by without an effort or desire to
add them to her collections; but t 4
specimen hitherto unclassliied crosses
her path. she is ready with her little
dissecting knife to peer into the l;by-
rinths of a new phase Of human ma
ture.
Another class, perhaps the most dan
gerous one. into which we are dividing
coqucttes, includes those women Who
fancy themselves in love with each Jew
lover. These are emotional and synpa-
thetic women. who, being incapable Of
strong feeling themselves, are brne
along by the force of passion Which
fascinates them. and which they would
gladly reciproca,e. In their ofterre-
ncwed disappointment at finding hat
the new lover cannot make them Tor
get themselves. they feel sense of in
Justice, and never dream that they ire
not the injured ones.

to the ground before they rlpen. | used

to fall, and continued until the fruit was
about half grown. They were Of the
