Hair Tonic, prepared from South American
herbs and runts, the most successful article
ever produced foi preserving the hair from
falling out or changing color, restoring and
preserving it in a' healthy and luxuriant
slate. Among other reasons why Dollard's
Hair (.'tilling Saloon maintains its immense
poDularity, is the fact that his tdtiic is ap

preservation than under any "other known ap

ous friends Bnd all the world about BIOOITIB

er tp accommodate any one with the neatest,
easiest and best fitting suits of Clothes that
have been turned out lately; and not only

His shop is at the old stand, (100 well
known to need fuither notice) where he may
at all times be found, seated npon the bench
of repentance, steadily drawing out the thread
of affliction, hopeing it may in the end prove
advantageous to him and his customers. He
would also advise his friends to bear in mind
that poor, afflicted tailors must live, or they
can't be expected to work. Therefore, Wheat,
Bye, Corn, Oats, Potatoes, and with all now
and then a little CASH will come mighty
handy from those who are back-standing on

Remember, gentlemen, that in all cases
" the laborer is worthy of his hire."
