HEIMSTREET'S
Inimitable Hair Restorative.
IT IS NOT A DYE,
But restores gray hair to its original color, by supplying the capillary tubes
with natural sustenance, impaired by age or disease. All instantaneous dyes are
composed of lunar
caustic, destroying the vitality and beauty of the hair, and afford of
themselves no dressing. Heimstreet's Inimitable Coloring not only restores hair
to its natural color by an easy process, but gives the hair a
Luxuriant Beauty,
promotes its growth, prevents its falling off, eradicates dandruff, and imparts
health and pleasantness to the head. It has stood the test
of time, being the original
Hair Coloring, and is constantly increasing in favor. Used by both gentlemen and
ladies. It is
sold by
all respectable dealers, or can be procured by them of the commercial
agent, D. S. Barnes, 22 Broadway, N.Y. Two sizes, 50 c. and $1.

American Watches for Americans!
THE AMERICAN WATCH COMPANY give notice that they
have lately issued a new style of Watch, expressly designed
for Soldiers and others who desire a good watch at
a moderate price. These watches are intended to displace the worthless, cheap
watches of British and Swiss manufacture
with which the country is flooded, and which were
never expected to keep time when they were made, being
refuse manufactures sent to this country because unsalable
at home, and used here only for
jockeying and
swindling purposes.
We offer to sell our Watch, which is of
THE MOST SUBSTANTIAL
MANUFACTURE, AN ACCURATE AND DURABLE TIME-KEEPER,
and in Sterling Silver Cases, Hunting pattern, at as low a price as is asked for
the trashy
Ancres and Lepines of foreign
make, already referred to.
We have named the new series of Watches, WM. ELLERY, Boston, Mass., which name
will be found on the plate of every
watch of this manufacture, and is one of our trade-marks.
Sold by all respectable watch dealers in the loyal States.
Wholesale orders should be addressed to
