Brnsmess Notices. rpo FARMERS AND OTHERS. The successful result of the last year’s shipment on farmers’ account, and the exceedingly satisfactory prices realised, combined with very moderate charges, as compared with those of other mer chants, encouraged us to go more ex tensively into this particular branch of business this year. We do so feeling confident that the Farmers of this County will SUPPORT A LOCAL FIRM, whose interest is inseparably allied with their own, rather than encourage agencies of firms, whose only interest in the district is to make as much profit out of the place as possible, without leaving anything adequate in return. On this ground alone we think we may fairly rely on the good sense of our friends to work with us, and so help to PUSH THE DISTRICT AHEAD. We have now much pleasure in in forming the Farmers and others in this County that we have CHARTERED SEVERAL FIRST CLASS IRON VESSELS, which we hope to despatch during the next and following months of the en suing grain season. For particulars read next adver tisement. Friedlander Bros., GENERAL MERCHANTS, i j AGENTS FOR THE COLONIAL FIRE AND MARINE INSURANCE COM -3 7 ) PANY OF NEW ZEALAND.

BY a thorough knowledge of the natural laws which govern the operations of digestion and nutrition, and by a careful application of the fine properties of well selected cocoa, Mr. Epps has provided our breakfast tables with a delicately flavoured beverage which may save us many heavy doctor’s bills. It is by the judicious use of such articles of diet that a constitution may be gradually built up until strong enough to resist every ten pency to disease. Hundreds of subtle maladias are floating around us ready to attack wherever there is a weak point. We may ,escape many a fatal shaft by keeping ourselves well fortified with pure blood and a, properly nourished frame.— See article in the Civil Service Gazette.

A very nicely perfumed Hairdressing, called THE MEXICAN HAIR RE NEWER, now being sold by most Che mists and perfumers througout the coun try, at 3a. 6d. per bottle, is fast super ceding all the old restorers and dyes for the purpose of changing grey or vrhite hair to its natural original color, for it will positively restore the hair in every case of greyneas to its original color, with out dyeing it or leaving that offensive smell which most of the hair preparations of the day do. This preparation has never been known to fail in restoring the hair, to its natural color and gloss in from eight to twelve days. It promotes growth and prevents the hair falling out, eradicating dandruff, and leaving the scalp in a clean, healthy condition. It imparts peculiar vitality to the roots of the hair, restoring it to its youthful freshness and vigor. Daily applications of this preparation for a week or two will surely restore faded, grey, or white hair to its natural color and richness. It is not a dye, nor does ituon tain any coloring matter or offensive substance whatever. Hence it does not soil the hands, the scalp, or-even white linen, but produces the color within the substance of the hair. Read the follow ing from Mr. Nathan Berry, Chemist, Walkden : “One of my customers told me the other day he had had grey hair for thirty-five years, and after using one bottle of the Mexican Hair Renewer 1 sold him, it was restored to and kept its natural color.” It may be had of any respectable Chemist, Perfumer, or Dealer in toilet articles in the kingdom, at 3s. 6d. per bottle.—Prepared by HENRY 0.
