was tho frst preparation perfectly adapted to
cure diseases of the scalp, and the first sue
cessful restorer Of faded or gray hair to its
natural color, growth, and youthful beauty.
1t has had many imitators, but none have So
fully met all the requirements needful for
the proper treatment of the hair and scalp.
HALLS HAIR REVIEWER has steadily grown
in favor, and spread its fame and usefulness
TO every quarter of the globe. Its unparal-
ieled success can be attributed to but one
cause: the entire Ju!.6iment Of its promises.
The proprietors have often been surprised
nj the receipt of orders from remote coun-
tres, where they had never made an effort for
its introduction.
The use for n short time of HALLS HAIR
REVIEWER wonderfully improves the per-
sonal appearance. 1t cleanses the scalp from
Al impurities. cures all humors. fever. and
d~ryness, and thus prevents badness. 1t

TIE Republican committee of Ohio recently sent a letter to Hon. Lot M. Merrill begging him to come and help stem 1he tide that is set ting against Blaine in the Buckeye State. Mr. Morrill, died about eight cen months ago. His widow indig nantlv wrote to the committee in answer as follows:
 T thought every citizen in this country knew my husband was aJ rest. ] am in mourning for him. but as much aa 1 mourn his death, I thank my Father in Heaven that He called him home before the par ty he loved so well and did so much for, had so diSeraced itself as to nominate so wicked and corrupt q man for the highest office within the gift of the American people. as I know, and my husband knew, James G. Blaine to be. If lie were alive he would not support Mr. Blaine or any such man, even at the bidding of his party. CHARLOTTE MORRILL,"

Digging Wells.

Tho old way of digging well and stoning it up SD as to leave it about lhreo feet in diameter, is very good one if the water is to be drawn mp with buckets: but if only with pump it is a very poor way; for If, as Is the usual custom. the well be covered at the top, it leaves a very large space for dead air. which ten becomes so bad that it af- feet; the quality of the water, and also makes it unsafe to enter the well. When well thus stoned has only a pump in it, the covering should be un- der water or very near 1t; but if it is known that only a pump is 10 be used. the expense of stoning may be saved, and the water kept in much better condition. This is done by digging the well in dry time. and when dug as low as possible, cement pipe, some two feet in diameter and two or three feet long. is sunk at the bottom and worked down as low as possible by dig giny out the inside; the pipe should be covered over with flat stone, through the middle of which two-inch hole has been drilled; directly over this hole stand up drain-pipe, then begin 10 fill III lEt lOlt. " iitH litth stS IT tltt top of the first piece of dran-pipe, put on another, being careful to have It straight with the other, and the line perpendicular; continue filling and addiag Il ain-iiipe until it is as high as the surrounding ground, or if the pump is not to stand directly over the well, then when it is flied within four feet of the surfa put in the pump-pipe. and lead it off in a trench to where the pump is 10 stand. When it s found that pipe k all right, finish filling the well, leav- ing some durable mark that the posi- ton of the well may be known
 A well of this kind is reliable and permanent. requiring no repairs. tke water is cool and free from iihpErities that open wells are subject to; 10 in- sects or animals can find their way into it, and the cost is not more than one half that of well that is stoned. If dug. as it should be, when the springs are low. constant supply of water that is as pure as the underground springs. is secured. As the well is always fDll there is no chance for bad air to iniurs the water, and in fact but little danger of being polluted by surrounding cess pools compared to that of open wells Massachusetts Pioagbman.
