WOMEN, LOVELY WOMEN, “Fair Tresses Man's Imperial Race Ensnares,” says Pope. The grandest of feminine attractions is a beautiful head of luxuriant hair. Glorious rair! Great peels have sung its praises; artists have endeavored to portray it accurately, but have seldom succeeded. Are you a woman? Would you crown yourself with glorious hair? Would you add doubly to I your present attractiveness? Then go to the drug store of Holtliouse Drug Co. and ask for a bottle of Parisian Sage, the great hair tonic and beautifier. A large bottle costs but 50 cents, and in one week's time it will change harsh, lusterless, untidy hair into soft, silky and luxuriant hair. Parisian Sage is fully guaranteed by hair, cure dandruff and itching of the scalp in two weeks, or money back. it kills the microbes, that’s how It cures dandruff. It is a pleasant and invigorating hair dressing, does not <ye the hair, and is not sticky or greasy. ‘‘l have used Parisian Sage two weeks only, yet in that time I find my hair has wonderfully increased in beauty, thickness and luxuriance. But wibat surprised me most was the appearance of all dandruff. It pleases me to recommend such an efficient remedy to all my friends. Gratefully yours, Mrs. Maud Hagar, 617 west 136th St., New York City.” For sale by Holthouse Drug Co., or by express, all charges prepaid from Giroux Mfg. Co., Buffalo, N. Y.

Fifth. That a copy of these resolutions be spread on the records of this post, a copy each, be handed his bereaved wife and son. and a copy each be given the city dailies for publication. S. B. FORDYCE. DANIEL KITSON, D. W. SHOLTY, Committee. THE CAUSE OF COLDS. Good Advice Regarding the Prevention of Coughs and Colds.

If people would only properly fortify and strengthen their system, about 9S per cent of coughs, colds and pneumonia might be avoided. These troubles are simply the result of weakness which produces a catarrhal condition of the mucous membrane, Which is as an internal skin of the body. When this skin is weakened, it becomes infected with germs which are carried through the system by the blood. These parasites attack and break delicate tissues and set up a soreness which produce what is in reality an external scrofula. The only thing that will cure coughs and colds and prevent pneumonia is a medication which is absorbed and carried by the blood so that the diseased membrane is disinfected, cleaned, soothed and healed. We have a remedy Which we honestly believe [infallable and unsui| passable for the prevention and cure of coughs, colds and all catarrhal conditions. It is the prescription of a famous physician, who has an enviable reputation of 30 jears of cures gained through the use of this medicine. We promise to either effect a cure in every case or make no charge fcr the medicine. We urge everybody in Rochester who has need of such a medicine to try Rexall MucuTone. It stands to reason that we could not afford to make such statements and give our own personal guarantee to this remedy if we were not absolutely positive that we could not substantiate our claim in every particular, and we see no reason why any one should hesitate to accept our offer and try it. We have two sizes of Rexall Mucu-Tone. Prices 50c. and SI.OO. Sometimes a 50c. bottle is sufficient for a cure. As a general thing, the most chronic case is cured with an average of three large bottles. Remember, the medicine will cost you nothing if you are not satisfied in every particular.
