BW’ The Hair.—People have for centuries been afflicted
with balAKeads hnd tne only remedy, heretofore known,
has been those abomihahle wigs. By a recent discovery of
Professor Wood these artichs are being.frst dispensed with,
bat a great many persons still paKmdte them, because
they have been so often Imposed .upon by Jlalr- Tonics of
different kltuhi. To all siken we earnestly make
the that they .will try once agrin, ibr in wood’s
BeatoraOve there is no' such’ thing, as’ fen. We know of a
.lady Who was bald, who need ; tJ» article, a short time, and
her head is how covered comidetely wlth the tiniest and
most beautiful curls imaginaido. wo know of numerous
cases where hair was rapidly falling out, Which It restored
in greater perfection than It cver had been before
It is also without doubt ono of the best articles for kcep
iug the hair in good condition, .making it soft and glossy,
removing dandruff, and 1 EaS proved itself the greatest enc
niytoailthoUU that lialrU telrto.
It is the daly of 'every one to Tiriprovo their personal ap-‘
pearauco thongh some mny -differ in regard to the ways of
doingit; liof everyoiie will admit that a beautiful h«ul of
liair, eltlier in man or Woman, is an object nineb to be de

obtain snch a consideration.— Wman’t Advocate, Phila. ~

“ Lost, a Child Lost.”

ting sketch:
i Monday evening of last week we started
homeward. In the room below we found
Mrs. E. i 6 waiting, and together we star
ted up State street. About half way we
met our eldest son, and saw that he had
some tidipgs of evil. He could only say,
* Little Ramy is lost, and -we cannot find
him anywhere.’ The little one Is the
lamb of opr fold, .a bright eyed hoy be
tween two' and three years of age, with

came back' witbf the sad word ‘No tidings.’

again we did come. The friends in the

should go again. The anxiety was too
deep for words. At last we saw some one
coming—how far one can see who looks
for a lost child- I —nearer' and nearer; It
was—it was our child!! God be praised,
he was safe 1

Our friends gathered with swimming
eyes about the child. There was no need
to call them to *come and rejoice with us.’
There wore three other children who had
not been in peril; three who had not wan

not love them less, but the joy was over the

An honest German found the little wan
derer a long distance from home, and saw
that he was lost. He took him up and
earned him to his house, placed him in the
crib and rocked him to sleep, had washed
and fed him, and restored him to our anus.
We asked him to accept a pecuniary re
co tnpense, but he refused, saying in bro

he buttoned his coat over his noble Teu

Fidelity.— Never Jprsake a friend.—
When enemies gather around—when sick
ness falls on the heart—when the world is
dark and cheerless—then is the time to
try true friendship. They who turn from
the’scene of distress, betray their hypoc
risy, and prove that interest only moves
them. If yen have a friend who loves
you and studies yotur interest and happi
ness;—be sure to sustain him in adversity.
|i«t him feel that his former kindness is
appreciated, and ' that his love was not
thrown away. Real fidelity may be rare,
but it exists in the heart. Who has not
seen and felt its power ? They only deny
its worth and power, who never have loved
a friend, or labored to make a friend

Close by the residence of ibis honest

As he came from his house, a Short time

hailed him with: “ The top uy the morn

but perhaps ye’H be teliin’ a poor' hxan

“ Pig,” exclaimed the doctor with a
smile, “what pig, Michael, and that’s the

But if it was a gossan instead dv the darlin

“Well,” continued the doctor, consi
derately, “ were it a child, Michael, per
haps I should recommend a mustard poul

water.”
? ‘‘ lt’s meself that’s obliged to ye, docthur,
beidad I am,” responded Mikd, as the
physician passed along, and he eptered his
house. Mi
“ Biddy I” he added, addressing his %
wife, “ we’ll cure the. pig, sc| |we will.”
In a short time the porker was Invested
in a strong mustard plaster from his tail
to his ears. Notwithstanding Bis strug
gles, and his wheezings,. and torture from
the action of the unyielding planter, a tub
of almost boiling water was prepared, and
into it poor piggy was soused iabove his
knees. The result may be easily con
ceived.
Next morning, bright and early, Michael
stood at the gate once mote, awaiting the
coming of the doctor, who soon! made his
appearance.
“ Good morning, Mike, how does the
pig come on?” '
“ 0, be gorrah, docthur I it was mighty

that way, so it was.”
“ Why, what is the matter, what has
happened, Michael?”
“ Happen’d is it, I put the powltice on
the pig, so I did, an’ he squealed mnrther,
an’ he dad it’s no wonder, for the wall
