HAIR REsToRER is q clean and harmless
preparation for restoring gray or faded
hair to its ORIGINAL color in from seven
TO fourteen days. As II is not q dye and
has no sediment Of coloring matter II is not
sticky or greasy and does not stain skin or

Machine to Lay Brick.
Important Inventions Made by a
Canadian.

Washington, July 16.-com-
mercial Agent johnson of Stan
bridge, Quebec, reports to the
State Department a recent ,nven-
ton, which consist of brick laying
by machinery instead of by hand.
He says;
''The machine, worked by two
men and a lad, will lay 400 to
600 bricks per hour. Door and
window spaces cause only a slight
delay. The machine is suited for
all plain work, such as walls,
sheds, mills, factories, cottages,
piers of bridges, etc. Considers
able pressure is put on the bricks
and it is claimed that the work is
more firmly done than by hand.
The invention will do the work of
six or seven bricklayers and it is
believed that machine adapted TO
build factory covering about 40
by 60 feet could be put on the
market for $500. The apparatus
can be readily worked after a
fortnights instruction. "
