AYER’S Hair Vigor

restores, with the gloss and freshness of youth, faded or gray hair to a natural, rich brown color, or deep black, as may be desired. By its use light or red hair may be darkened, thin hair thickened, and baldness often, though not always, cured.

It checks falling of the hair, and stimu- lates a weak and sickly growth to vigor, It prevents and cures scurf and dandruff, and heals nearly every disease peculiar to the scalp. As a Ladies’ Hair Dressing, the VIGOR is unequalled ; it contains neither oil nor dye, renders the hair adft, glossy, and silken in appearance, and imparts a delicate, agreeable, and lasting perfume.

Mr. C. P. BRicHER writes from Kirby, O. July 3, 1882: “ Last fall my hair eommenced falling out, and in a short time I became nearly bald. 1 used part of a bottle of AYER’S HAIR ViGoR, which stopped the fall- ing of the hair, and started a new growth. I have now & full head of hair se vigor- ously, and am convinced that but for the use of your preparation I should have been entirely bald.”

J. W. BOWEN, proprietor of the McArthur (Ohio) Enquirer, says : “ AYER’S HAIR VIGOR is a most excellent preparation for the hair. I speak of it from my Own experience. Ite use promotes the growth of new hair, and makes it glossy and soft. The V1GOR is also &@ sure cure for Zandruff. Not within m xnowledge has the preparation ever fai to give entire satisfaction.”

Mar, ANGUS FAIRBAIRN, leader of the celebrated “ Fairbairn Family” of Scottish Vocalists, writes from Boston, Mass., Feb. 6,

. 1880; ‘‘ Ever since my hair began to gre ab ry evidence of thé change which fleeting @ procureth, I have used AYER’S HAIR Vicor, and so have been able to maintain anappearance of youthfulness —a matter of © erable consequence to ministers, ora- tors, actors, and in fact every one who lives in the eyes of the public.”

Mrs. O. A. PRESCOTT, writing from 18 Elm St., Charlestown, Mass., April 14, 1882, says; “Two years ago about two-thirds of my hair eame off. It thinned very rapidly, and I was fast eroming bald. On using AYER’S HAIR Viaor the falling stopped and a new growth commenced, and in about a month my h ‘was completely covered with short hair. I has continued to grow, and is now as good as before it fell. I regularly used but one bottle oi the Vicor, but now use it occasionally as a dressing.”

We have hundreds of similar testimonials to the efficacy of AveR’s Hain Vigor. It needs but a trial to convince the most skept- eal of its value.

The Tunnel Across the Straits.

Sir,—Having been the first and for years the only advocate of a submarine tunnel as the true solution of the problem of keeping up constant communication between the Island and the Mainland, and having advo- cated this scheme longer and stronger than any other man, it will readily be seen that [ would he the last to place any obstaele in the way of carrying out my pet project. On the contrary, it is a source of great gratification to me to know that, after sub- mitting to all the ridicule that the green- eyed monster jealousy could suggest and narrow-minded, small-souled envy could invent, I have at last succeeded in placing this grand scheme before the people of my Island Home in such a manner as to have won for it the warm support and advocacy of so many and such eminent men, My time being very much occupied at present with my own and other affairs, I would not have reverted to the tunnel project were it not that I notice by a recent invention of a Mr. Halden Hal), of New York, it is proposed to use iron o8a cheap substitute for masonry in the construction of future tunnels, and also that the Hon. G. W. Howlan is exerting himself to get the people of the Island to adopt this cheaper mode of constructing our tunne!. Before the people of the Island fully commit them- selves to this Ame ican invention of recent date, | think it weuld be in order for the Government to appoint, say, three com- petent, disinterested British engineers to not only make a full wid complete survey of the Straits, but also to adjudge whether iron, as & substitute for masonry in the construction of submarine tunnels, is capable of standing the ravages of time. It is well known that iron, whether white or black, is a metal of a highly corrosive nature, especially when subjected to the action of salt.

Letter from Dr. Conroy.

To the Editor of the Patriot.

Sir,—In your issue of the 17th inst., 1 am charged with exacting illegal fees from persons vaccinated by me during the past week. I will endeavor in a few words to show you how unfounded your charges ere.

The law of 1862 provides that the Supt.

of Vaccination vaceinate at duly advertised hours on one day of each month, and that he shall collect from each person vaccinated on those days the sum of one shilling, old currency. The writer of your article has wilfully omitted the first and most import- ant clause in the Act, and the particular clause upon which all consequent ones de- pend, viz., that the authorized vaccination shall be performed on certain advertised days only. This law 1 have followed to the letter, and once a week, instead of once a month, | have advertised publie vaccination, in anticipation of the existing emergency. Having. done tis, my work as pubhe vaccinator for the time ends, snd my sub- sequent and private vacccinations cannot be measured by the statutes as above quoted. The fact that public vaccination is direct- ed to be performed upon only one day of each month is proof positive that the law was never ‘ntended to apply to a time of epidemic; and there is no reason why I should extend its application beyond the prescribed limits. When, however, small- pox appeared, and when it was known that large numbers of the poor inhabitants of town and country had not been vaccinated and others required re-vaccination, the leader of the Government deemed it necessary to supplement the law and to grant continuous and free vaccination to the poor at Government expense. And in order to promote the object in view, he appointed an assistant who has proved him- self fully competent, though not actually possessing a diploma as a medical practitioner. Noone willdare to say that because I act as Government Vaccinator, under the law of 1862, which provides public vaccination only once a month, ‘hat I am to be deprived of my privileges as a private practitioner. From my own patients I have a right to receive my regular fee; but when you say that the poor are forced to pay for vaceina+ tion, you state what is not true. I receive no salary as Public Vaccinator, and now that the Government have arranged that the poor be vaccinated free, it is absurd to think that I should compel the Government to pay for those who are willing and enx- ious to pay for themselves.

The course pursued by the Loader of the Government must commend itself to all as prompt and generous— calculated to provide as quickly as possible the greatest barrier to the spread of the disease, and that among those who are most liable to its ravages and who would suffer most from its contraction.

I must characterize your article as unjust, because it wilfully misinterpreted the law, as walicious, because it was intended to injure me in a public capacity, and to destroy the confidence of the public in those who had no reason to lose it; it was eruel, because it attacked me at atime when I had as much trouble as I could bear.

Yours, ete., P, Conroy.

Smallpox Epidemic.

** AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION IS WORTH A POUND OF CURE”—A NEW DISCOVERY— A LONG-NEEDED WANT SUPPLIED.

(Montreal Gazette )

A preventive has lately been introduc:d into this city that is destined to become a universal and popular remedy in suppress- ing smallpox epidemics. It comes from Boston, supported by most unexceptiona! testimony and avthority from that ,lace, and if its efficacy will only embrace in this city what it did during the epidemic in Boston some time ago, our fears for Mon- treal will be dissipated. The preparation in question was discovered by Dr. Thomas Morley, a physician of considerable repute in London, England, and is known as Dr. Morley’s Standard English Remedy for Smallpox and Fevers. It was used exten- sively in England, but in order to have a greater sphere for testing its efficacy, in smallpox particularly, Dr. Morley deter- mined to visit America, where be afier- wards settled in Cambridge, Mass. Ye visited the Southern States, and used the preparation very eflectively there, both as a preventive and curein yellew fever and fever and ague. It was not till the year 1872-3, when the smallpex raged in Boaiton and vicinity in an epidemic form, that the remedy was given full scope.

As soon as the disease began to spread Dr. Morley called upon Dr, Green, who was then city physieian in Bosten, and offered to take charge and treat all eases re- ported to the city free of charge. He also offered to guarantee $1,000 for any case of smallpox that he failed to cure with his smallpox and fever mixture. He then visited the north end of the city, where this dreadful disease was raging ip its varions stages of the disease, and, strange as it may seem, not one ‘death occurred where the patient was treated with this medicine.

Dr. Morse, of Cambridge, who was then city pbysician te Cambridge, tested it thoroughly and gave his unprejudiced opinion that Dr. Morley’s smallpox cure was as valuable as «ther. By its use he cured patients whose cases, under the usual treatment, would have been considered hopeless. Not only did the medicine act asacure, but a preventive, as when given to patients who felt the first symptoms of the evil, the disease was prevented from developing. He also administered it to cases a3 s00n as they were exposed and a few doses prevented any of the symptems from setting in. There was no denger at- tending the use of it, the most 4elicate female or child taking it with perfeet safety. The epidemic was. put down in au amazing short time. We quote the testimonials given to Dr. Morse by the City Board of Health.

‘To Dr. Morse the thanks of this board and our citizens geverally are due, for the kind and considerate care which be has exercised éver the poor and unfortunate, especially for the skill and wisdom shown in the treatment of the eases under his care of that terrible disease, the smallpox,which visited our city with such viclencs during the past year. It was in our opinion greatly owing to knowledge of and experience with the disease that the terrible scourge was so soon stayed in its devastating work.’

As above stated, Dr. Morse used whelly in treating the disease, Dr. Morley’s Small- pox Cure, and gave his opinion as above.

As a preventive the medicine was admin- istered as soon a& persons were exposed, as well as being freely used by people living in the infected locality When one member of a family was stricken with the disease all other members were given the medicine, and where this was done not a second ease was reported in the same house. By strictly adhering to the system of isolation and ad- ministering the preventive to all persons exposed, why cculd not the smallpox epidemic be suppressed? Every family should provide themselves with it, and use it, and have it ready in case of infection. Especially is it important to keep on hand by those living in infected localities.

It is to be hoped that our scourge has spent its force, and statistics begin to point in that direction Still, with the advent of cold weather and the consequent confin- ing of the disease in close houses, the epidemic may gather strength again, and our citizens cannot be too careful. It is to be regretted that this valuable preventive was not introduced a couple of months sooner. It is now in the hands of the wholesale druggists in this city; all the apothecaries will have it. The medicine is very neatly put up in packages of viais, each vial containing one dose. Directions in French and English accompany each package. One great advantage in the remedy is its powdered form, as parties at a distance can be quickly supplied in case of the disease breaking out, as the package can be transmitted by mail,

The Bishop of London has issued a eir- cular stating that he will be very glad if the elergy throughout the diocese would sup- port the Church of England Temperance Society by sermons, and, if possible, by offertories, on Sunday, May 9, 1886. That society, he says, is doing a much-needed work in a most excellent way.
