A General Rebellion!
Triumph of a Great Discovery!
THE public has rebelled against cauter
izing Hair Dyes. Faskion has fore
sworn them. A sagacious community has
adopted in their stead a
Cristadoro’s Hair Dye,
and for these reasons: It embrowns and
blackens the hair, not the skin. It is a
vegetable emollient , not a burning fluid.
It does not burlesque nature with blooming
metallic tinges , but produces her own
living hues. Its cooling effect is lasting.
It defies detection. Its results are uniform.
It never fails. Manufactured by J. CRIS
TADORO, No. 6 Astor House, New

THE GREAT SECRET!
IT is admitted by all physicians that
the grand secret of health and long
life lies in keeping the bipod and various
fluids of the body in a-' high degree of
fluidity. When you feel continued pain
in the head or bowels, or any continued
uneasiness in any organ or other parts of
the body, you can prevent serious sickness
by taking
BRANDRETBPS PILLS.
Bleeding may give momentary ease be
cause the blood left will have more room.
But as the body is made from the blood
and sustained by the blood, to waste our
blood is to waste out life, and ruin our (
constitution. But Brandreth’s Pills relieve
the circulation as readily as bleeding, by
only taking away what it can well spare,
and they never hurt.
Mrs Hooper, of Barnstable, Mass., was
cured ofSt. Vitus Dance,General Debility,
poorness of blood, and cosliveness of
many years standing, by Brand relh*s Pills.
The case at length is published in the
Pamphlets. Sold by all respectable deal*
ers in medicines. jan22
