: hair began to come oul, scurf and hair together I saw
in a New Haven paper about 'Wood's Hair Restorative'
as a cure. I call, dat your store on the Ist of April last,
and purchased one bottle to try it, and t found to my sat

MECHANICS, Inventors, Manufacturers and

now reached its Fourteenth Year, and will enter
upon a new volume on the 11th of September
It is the only weekly publication of the kind
now issued ia this country, and it has a very
extensive circulation in all the States of the

its title, a dry abstruse work on technical sci

events going on in the scieutiiic, mechanical and
industrial worlds, as to please and instruct every
one. If the Mechanic or Arti/au wishes to
know the best machine in use, or iiow to make
any substance employed in his business—if the
Housewife wishes to get a recipe for making a
good color, &c.—if the Inventor wishes to know
wiiat is going 011 in the way of improvements
—if the Manufacturer wishes to keep posted
with the times, and to employ the best facilities
in his business—if the man of leisure and study
wishes to keep himself familiar with the pro
gress made in the chemical labaratory, or in the
construction of telegraphs, steamships, rail
roads, reapers, mowers, and a thousand other
machines ard appliances, both of peace and
war—all these des'ultrata can be found in the

GREAT IMPROVEMENT
IN
CSCCEEITG- STOVES S
Consumption of Smoke Gas Saving of Fotl!
THE subscriber takes pleasure in offering to
1 bin customers a new Talented Gas-burning
CookingStove,undoubtedly the heststove made.
It is well known that all inflammable matter
requites a certain amount of air to support com
bustion, and if the supply is insufficient it is
impossible to produce a flame. The heat of
the fire, inordinary cooking stoves, decomposes
the fuel, and as all the fresh air is admitted un
der the grate, its oxygen is exhausted before it
has passed through the fire chamber. The close
flues at the top of the stove then act as an ex
tinguisher, tending to put out the fire instead of
assisting the combustion. A large portion of
the fuel, therefore, passes off in the shape of
smoke, clogging up the flues of the stove so as
to impede the draft and interfere with the ba
king,—or of invisible gas which combines with
tint lime and so destroys the mortar of the
chimneys, loosening the bricks, and exposing
the dwellings to the danger of fire.
The introduction of art additional supply of
cold air would cool the gas below the igniting
temperature, but by the proper application
above the fire of air previously heated to a tem
perature of several hundred degrees (which is
one of the prominent features of the patent)
the gases are inflamed in numerous jets, and
their combustion is sufficient to heat tne oven,
even if the draft through the fire chamber is
entirely closed. In addition to the ordinary di
rect draft under the grate and through the fire
chamber, the gas-burner has an additional draft
through the top plates, which is of itself suffi
cient to maintain combustion. The upper draft
not only consumes the gases, but it helps to
strengthen and preserve the centre pieces which
are most exposed to the direct action of the
fire, and which are made double instead of the
usual single plates. By means of this draft
alone, all the operations of cooking can be car
ried on when the fuel is but partially ignited,
and the fuel consequently burns more slow I v
and more economically. A sufficient evidence
of the effect of the gases in heating '.fie oven is
found in the fact that the overt, w ill be ready
for baking even before the, f, rc j s thoroughly
kindled, and much soo; lCr than in any other.
I here is scarcely a doubt that before long
the Cooking Stoves will supercede
all Others. The operation is so perfect and its
consumption of fuel so small iu comparison
with other cooking stoves, and its heat so easily
regulated, (burning more or less as desired,)
that every one who uses one of these stoves will
have nothing else. For sale by

Patent Galvanic Cement
r? 3 cc£> rgr* CSJ CSD if 2 iya _
fJMIE undersigned having purchased the
1 right for this Cement in Mifflin and Cen
tre counties, are now prepared to furnish and
put it on roofing wherever desired—the root
being sheeted by the owner. Scientific men
under the direction of government, and ar
chitects and builders iu various parts of the
country, for years have been studying and
experimenting to discover some composition
or article for roofing, which would resist the
changes of our climate, and would uh'rte the
qualities of Intpcrviotisness to Water, IHCOIU
bustibility, Durability and Cheapness. No
article now" in use possesses these qualities.
Shingles are not fire proof, and cannot be used
upon flat roofs. Sbvte can only he used upon
steep roofs. The contraction, expansion and
rusting of metallic roofs are so great iu this
changeable climate that they soon become
worthless, or the repairs will cost more than
a new roof. The various cements and com
positions which have been iutroduced, can bo
supplied only to very flat roofs, and they aro
all so affected by the action of tho weather
that they will milt and run in summer and
crack in winter, and in a short time Lecoms
crumbly and worthless. The inventor of the
Galvanic Cement has labored twenty years to
obviate these difficulties,, and it is believed by
those who have had opportunities to test the
matter, that he has entirely succeeded. As
now applied,
First —It is completely imueivkias to wale;
\X ater may continually stand upon the roof
without affecting it in the least.
Second —It is fire proof. It is so incombus
tible that it will afford ample and perfect pro
tection against fire, sparks and burning shin
gles iioan another building immediately ad
j joining.
Third—lt is durable. It is u<it injured" by
atmospheric changes, having been tested for
several years by the Patentee, at Syracuse,
New York.
Fourth—lt is cheap. Roofs wiil be put on
for about half the cost of tin, and will last
much longer.
Fifth—Repairs arc easily and cheaply made.
Sixth —lf is sufficiently elastic to entirely
resist the expansion and contraction by heat
and eold, and will remain perfect and solid in
the warmest and coldest weather.
Seventh —It is adapted to all kinds of roofs,
cither flat or steep.
Eighth—lt is valuable for repairing old
roofs. Old shingle roofs may be covered
without removing the shingles. Old nietalic
roofs can be made perfectly tight and secure
Ninth—lt is especially adapted to all kinds
of seaming around battlements, sky-lights
and chimneys, and for the- lining of eave
troughs and gutters. Roofs which have given
trouble fur years, and which hate continued
to leak in spite of all efforts, can be made
perfectly secure by this cement.
Tenth—lt has been proved to be the best
article ever used for covering car tops and
steamboat decks.
Elcveuth—Thi- cement applied to new tin
roofs preserves them from rusting, by fur
nishing a coat which is at ouce impervious to
water and an almost perfect non-conductor of
heat.
Twelfth —It is the only roofing material
patented which contains India rubber and
gutta percha.
