BEATING ALL COMPETITORS. The new Straight Needle Wheeler and Wislon have no shuttles, they have no cogwheels, they have no heavy gear to tiro and weary the feet. It is evident that the rotary motion of the Wheeler and Wilson has much less friction than the shuttle movement of other machines, therefore the Wheeler and Wilson is much more durable, and needs less repair. The New Wheeler and Wilson has more and greater improvements than any other sewing machine, and is the fastest, making over 1,000 stitches per minute. CAUTION.

VALUABLE DISCOVERY for the HAIR. A very nicely perfumed Hairdressing, called THE MEXICAN HAIR RE NE VVER, now being sold by most Che mists and perfumers througout the coun try, at 3s. 6d. per bottle, is fast super ceding all the old restorers and dyes for the purpose of changing grey or white hair to its natural original color, for it will positively restore the hair in every case of greyness 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 it con 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-live 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.
