HAIR REVIEWER

was the first 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
leled success can be attributed to but one
cause: the entire Jtu!flment Of its promises.
The proprietors have often been surprised
ut the receipt of orders from remote coun-
tries, where they had never made an effortfor
its introduction.
The use for short time Of HALLS HAIR
REVIEWER wonderfully improves the per-
sonal appearance. 1t cleanses the scalp from
all impurities, cures all humors, fever, and
dryness, and thus prevents badness. It
stimulates the weakened glands, and enables
them to push forward new and vigorous
growth. Tho effects of this article are not
transient, like those of alcoholic prepara-
tions, but remain a long time, which makes
its use a matter of economy.

could get out of his acquisition was
mile in three minutes, so he came
back to have it out with the trickster.
"What did you mean by swindling

"Why, you told me that old pile of

The Cholera in Spain.

Dir. Ruiz, a distinguished physi-
clan who is doing much to relieve
the distress in the cholera district of
Spain, gives some interesting infor-
nation about the nature and ravages
of this dreadful scourage.
The cholera is spreading through
all the Province of Murcia, and he
apprehends that il will be Il severe
epidemic all over Spain. The germs,
going down the river Archena, were
spread through Marcia and its sub
urbs by the extensive use of water
used for irrigation. The disease has
been found to be less virulent, as it is
further removed from the origina
source of infection. At Archena the
type is mild, but about ten per cent
of those who recover from the cholera
take typhus fever. The tendency of
every case Of recovery is to some low
grade of fever The disease has been
much more destructive among wO-
men than men-probably fifty per,
cent. Not house in Murcia is free
from the infection.
The germs can be carried in letters
or in clothes, for fifteen and, possible,
thirty days. Under proper quaran-
tine the disease may be controlled,
but under the loose system now prac-
ticed its spread is thought to be GER
tain. All mail matters from the in
fected sections should be tumigated.
as the germs live for days, and even
months, in close receptacles. II is
thought that dry fumigation will not
be successful. There is one noted
case of cholera on record that origi-
mated from germs that had been pack
ed away in trunk in clothing for
six years. The servant who opened
the trunk died suddenly with all the
symptoms of cholera.
The Doctor, furthe", says that chol-
era shows decided affinity for the
lips. TO touch the body ola cholera
patient, and afterwards accidentally
touch ones own lips with the same
hand, would probably produce a case
Of cholera. The epidemic attacks 10
special trade, but poverty always.
Infected water is the source ofmuch
evil. 1t the water is boiled or taken
from artesian wells much of the dan
ger will be removed. The disease
has been found to spread much more
rapidly along water courses than
over the land. ....
There are many ways in which chOlc-
ia may be spread to other countries, if
the quarantine restrictions are care
lessly guarded. Fruit, rasins, letters
and clothing, transported from the
infected districts, may give great
trouble aud make immense slaughter
of human life.
To prevent the possibility of lodge
ment Of this dreadful scourgc and all
minor disorders of similar character,
every precaution should he taken to
remove every means that give vitality
to the germs. Epidemic dysentery,
typhoid fever, infectious pneumonia,
diphtheria aud similar diseases may
be much restrained in their hurtlul
influences by removing the substances
upon which they feed. Disinfectants
should be freely used at this season
of the year.

"Old Hickory" is the name that
General Jackson got during the
Greek war. On the occasion of a
forced and disagreeable march, Cap
tain Allen and his brother John cut
down stout hickory tree, peeled off
the bark and made a covering for the
general, who was with difficulty per-
suaded to crawl into it. The next
morning a drunken citizen entered
the camp, and, seeing the tent, kicked
it over. AS Jackson crawled from
the ruins the topper cried: "Hello,
Old Hickory, come out of your bark
and jine us in a drink p Thence
forth the general was known in camp
