We keep two kinds, one which we sell at $1.00 and the best at $1.25. Call and examine them and we know you will buy. BOXRUD BROS., Plum st. 18w3 —We speak knowingly when we as sert that Hall's Vegetable Sicilian Hair Renener is the best article of the kind sold on the American Continent. Per tonal trial has demonstrated this, and the article is an elegant and cleanly one without which we think no toilet com plete. Messrs. Johnston, Holloway & Co., 602 Arch street, Philadelphia, are the agents for the article, and when our Philadelphia friends return from Cape May, they should certainly procure some of it. We know of no such article ex tant for the hair, and thus speak in such decided and emphatic terms.— Ocean Foam, Cape May, N. J. —We have been inquireI of: Why our chickens are so plump, large and healthy and such good layers. We know no other reason than that they have been fed, during the winter, with scraps from the table, besides their al lowance of corn, and have constantly had access to salt, lime, ashes and water. We believe it essential for their health that chickens should have vege table acids and salt, and that a supply of lime is essential for the production of eggs. Our flock has had no unusual care during the winter, and we have lost none but one killed by a dog. Ours are of common breed, but few of fancy breeds are larger or better layers. —Why not run an omnibus from the corner of Broad and Third streets to the Southern addition, three or four times a day? Stopping, say, at the school house on South Park street? Also, up Third street to its termiuus and oyer in the Eastern part of the city? It would be a great public convenience to have stages run over all these routes, and property owners in the several sec tions mentioned would be gainers by them to an extent, we believe, which would justify them in contributing the funds necessary to their establishment. It is only a few years ago that public omnibuses were used in all our large cities, and Red Wing could afford to put up with them until it grows big enough and rich enough to build street railways. —Quite an exciting runaway occur red on Thursday last. A team belong ng to Mr. Hermann was being driven along Main street, and when in front of Messrs. Sterling & Co.'s, the steam whistle of that establishment blew for one o'clock. This started them and they ran up to Bush street. Turning towards the river, they ran over the corner of the sidewalk in front cf Cheap Charley's, and the driver, an employee of Mr. Herman, was there thrown off, The team kept on towards the river and succeeded in leaving the load and hind wheels of the wagon. They then got on to the railroad track and ran along it to the open bridge in front of the steam saw mill. There they fell be tween the ties and trapped themselves, and strange to say were rescued with out injury. —SCARCITY OF MONEY.—There is no doubt but the present condition of all kinds of business and industry is fearfully depressed, and it behooves ev ery family to look carefully to their ex penses. Winter is coming on when children are liable to Croup, Whooping Cough, etc. Coughs and 'Colds will prevail everywhere, and Consumption, with other throat and lung diseases, will carry off many.—These diseases should not be neglected. Doctor's bills are expensive, and we would advise our people to use Boschee's German Syrup. It never has.failed. One bottle at 75 cents will keep your whole family well during the winter. Two doses will re lieve any case. Sold in all towns in the United States, and by your druggist Messrs.

Webster. It occupies a hand some site, overlooking the business por tion of the city, but is approached by an easy grade, and is within a few min utes walk of the business center. It is built of brick and is two stories high, with,high ceilings in both stories and a high airy cellar under the entire build* ing. It fronts on Fourth street 24 feet, and a flight of four or five stone steps leads into a portico 7x8 feet, from which yau enter the house through handsome double doors, which open into a hall 8x16 feet. From this a wide and easy flight of stairs leads to the second story or turning to the right, through a wide doorway, you may pass from it into a handsome parlor 15x16 feet. The front windows of this open on to an iron balcony 14 feet long by 4 feet in width. Beyond the depth of the parlor and hall (16 feet,) the width of the house is increased, by angles projecting on both sides, to about 33 feet. This gives space for two rooms 15x16 feet in this portion. The easternmost of these, that in the rear of the parlor and con nected with it by a wide doorway, is the sitting room. This has a large and handsome bay window opening toward Dakota street, from which a fine view of the city is obtainable. The westerly room, that in the rear of the hall and stairway, is a bedroom. Ingress to it is had from the hall and from the sit ting-room. In the rear of these rooms the house is again contracted in width to 25 feet, and this part contains a dining room 15x18 feet and aback or private stair way to the second floor, entrance to which is from the dining room. On the Dakota street side, a door leads from this room on to a porch 6 feet wide, extending from the angle formed by the wall of the sitting room portion of the building, back the length of this nar rower portion and around the corner in its rear to the kitchen. This latter is 14x14 feet, and is in the rear of the west side of the dining room and of the back stairway above mentioned. A door from the dining room opens into it and it is also accessible from the porch on the east side. The west side of this portion of the building in which the kitchen is situated projects beyond the line of the dining room portion about 12 feet, and affords room for a pantry*8x12 feet and a wash room 12x12, both of which have doors opening from the west side of the kitchen. In the rear of these and par tially of the kitchen is a wood house 14x24 feet. This is of only one story in height. As will be observed the central portion of the building, for the space of 16 feet, is some eight feet wider than the front and rear. Viewed either from Fourth or Dakota street, this projection adds greatly to the ap pearance of the building, and especially so as the roof and general finish is made conformable with this irregularity of shape of the ground plan. The second floor is divided into rooms similar to those below, except that pas sage ways conduct to the .several apart ments and render them more private. A large bath room occupies the space over the pantry and washroom. The cellar is also divided into apartments which are finished appropriately for the several uses for which they are designed. A peculiar feature about this building, as about that of Mr. T. B. Sheldon's, is the abundance of closets, cupboards and wardrobes. One or more of these are in every room except the parlor, we believe, and the two large china cup boards in the dining room are especially noticeable. In the principal rooms there are open grate fireplaces and marble mantles, all the bedrooms are furnished with mar ble-topped washstands, and hot and cold water facets. The kitchen con tains an excellent cooking range, hot water reservoir, force pump, &c, and a large cistern furnishes a supply of water, from which it is pumped as wanted into a tank in the upper story, whence it is conducted by pipes into the sayeral apartments. There are also gas fittings in all the rooms, placed so as to be convenient for any purpose, and the patterns thereof in accordance with the finish and furniture of the sev eral apartments. The work upon this building is all of the very best, and the inside wood work, plastering, &c, can hardly be excelled. The stucco-work in the principal rooms and hall is beantiful in design and exe cution, and the doers and windows move easily and noiselessly, The work men engaged upon it were as follows: S. W. Chaffee, contractor and builder G. A. Carlson, stone-mason Woodleigh and Marble, bricklayers W. H. Brink, plasterer George Hudson, plumber W. E Hawkins and Wm. Chaffee, painters C. Betcher the tin work. The window frames and sash and door frames and doors, balusters, mouldings, &c, were from C. Betcher's planing mill of this city. Roscoe Letter. ROBCOE, Feb. 13th, 1877. Ed. of Advance-.—It has been a long time since I saw anything in your col umns from our town. Now, it is not because the hard times have so pressed upon us that we did not dare to squeal, but because of sheer neglect to write. But now we have resolved to be heard from, and we hope that this will not be the last time. Notwithstanding the pressure of the times, improvements are being steadily and constantly made here. Mr. C. Rogers made up his mind less than a week ago to build him a home, and this morning I cansee the smoke of his fire towering from the chimney of that home. Last fall he built his black smith shop, and has now put up this house. It is sided with building paper and furnished with furniture of his own and his neighbor's make. Mr. Schmeebeli is kept busy by his neighbors, for whose benefit he is con stantly exercising his ingenuity. The farmers are taking things easy. They repair to Mr. Bucholz's store to buy necessary articles and enjoy social chats, and return home satisfied with the labors of the day. If there are horses to be shod, Mr. Hepner is al. ways ready to shoe alltthat are brought to him in the best manner. Our religious institutions are doing well, though we cannot boaBt of many conversions. There is general good feeling and considerable interest is manifested in the gatherings. The Sabbath school especially is largely at tended, and the lessons seem to be dili gently studied, both teachers and schol ars giving close attention. Mr. Holmes, who left us about a year ago, is missed in the singing, which he used to lead. Yours, &c. I. C. MARRIED.
