Js@=“ A YOUNG LADY RETUIIN
IN G to her country home, after a sojourn
of a few months in the Si tv, was hardly
recognised b bor friends. In place of a
course, rustic, flushed face, she had a soft
ruby ooifcplextou of a'uiuot marble smoufir-
nes*, and instead ->f twenty three she really
appeared but eighteen. Upon inquiry as
to the cause of so groat a change, she plainly
told them that she used the CIRCASSIAN
BALM,‘and considered it an invaluable
acquisition to any Lady’s toilet. By its use
any lady or gentleman can improve their
personal appearance an hundred fold. It is
simple in its combination, as Nature herself
is simple, yet unsurpassed in its efficacy in
drawing impurities from, also healing,
cleansing, and beautifying the skin and
complexion. By its direct action on the
euticle it draws from it all its impurities,
kindly healing the same, and leaving the
surface as Nature intended it should be,
clear, soft, smooth, and beautiful. Price

MECHANICAL WONDER !
The Hicks Steam Engine,
Manufactured by the Hicks Steam
Engine Co-, of Delaware,
BLANTON DUNCAN, President.
Til OS R. SHARP, General Superintendent.
I BEG LEAVE TO CALL THE ATTEN
TION of the public to this wonder'ul
Steam Engine, which is cheaper, lighter,
less intricate, occupies less space, consumes
less fuel than any other engino, and is
superior in every other way, it being in
fact a double cut off Engine, without the
friction of a double set of valves with their
multiform attachments, and for its superior
merits was awarded the gold medal at the
Maryland Institute Fair, in October, 1866,
over all other engines. This invention,
therefore, forms tho most radical
and entire change in steam engines
which has occurred since the days of
Watts, being durable, accurate, and econ
omical in operation iu space beyond all
comparison with the past, and at fajr less
original cost than ever before attained.
