Cracked Hands Cured.
None but a laboring man, who lias
suffered misery while using an ax or
pounding with other tools, can rightly
appreciate this article. For years, when
young, I ruffered at some seasons untold
bitterness, caused by dry cracks on hands
ami fingers. I tried every so-called
remedy 1 could hear of but in vain ; and
1 >eing obliged then to labor each succes¬
sive day for an honest livelihood, l was
hound, as with an iron chain, to such
sufferings as almost made life a burden.
At last a friend told me to put common
copal varnish Into the cracks and it
would cure them. Although my faith
was very weak, I tried tlm prescription,
and, to my great joy, sure enough, in
forty-eight hours my hands were as well
ns ever. It does not save from fresh
hut it never fails to cure
the old ones within two days. I keep a
small hot Hoof the varnish, with a sliver
standing in it- cost ten cents- always
handy, and with its help my hands are
nearly always well. For knowledge of
this simple remedy 1 would not part for
many dollars. 1 have given it to many
others for many years, and have never
known of its failure to effectually cure
in all such cases. I don't know that the
subject can be considered agricultural
(perhaps it is only cutioultural), but
there are prolmbly farm readers of your
jwiper who will be glad to get the infor¬
mation.—On\ .V. V. IJnlnmc.
There is no evidence, according to the
London Lancet, to show that re vaccin¬
ation, once efficiently performed at or
after putierty, neoil ever be rejieated.
On the other hand, the frequent rei>eti
tion of revaccination, which has heroine
common during alarms of small-pox, is
distinctly to Iks deprecated. Such re
petitions are as a rule futile, they are
wasteful of vaccine lymph when lymph
is most precious; they tend to unsettle
the minds of jieople regarding some of
the best established facts as to the pre¬
servative power of vaccination, and they
are unnecessary. The official memoran¬
dum of the local government board on
revaccinat ion says : • Revaccination once
properly and successfully performed
•foes not appear ever to require reiKiti
tion.” Tlie nurses and other servants
of the London soiall-pox hospital, when
they enter the service are invariably snl>
mitted to vaccination, which in their
ease is generally revaccination, and is
never afterward repeated ; and so perfect
xs the protection, that, though the nurses
live in the cWest and most constant at¬
tendance on small-pox patients, and
though also the other servants are on
various ways exposed to special chances
of infection, the resident surgeon of th*
hospital, during his forty-one years of
office there, has never known small-pox
to affect any of these nurses or servants.

This standard article is compound,
ed with the greatest care.
Its effects are as wonderful and as
satisfactory as ever.
It restores gray or faded hair to ita
youthful color.
It removes all eruptions, itching
and dandruff. It gives the head a
cooling, soothing sensation of great
comfort, and the scalp by its use
becomes white and clean.
By its tonic properties it restores
the capillary glands to their normal
vigor, preventing baldness, and mak¬
ing the hair grow thick and strong.
As a dressing, nothing has been
found so effectual or desirable.
A. A. Hayes, M.D., State Assayer
of Massachusetts, says, “The con¬
stituents are pure, and carefully se¬
lected for excellent quality ; and I
consider it the Best Preparation
for its intended purposes,”

FOR THE WHISKERS.
This elegant preparation may be
relied on to change the color of the
beard from gray or any other undesir¬
able shade, to brown or black, at dis¬
cretion. It is easily applied, being in
one preparation, and quickly and ef¬
fectually produces a permanent color,
which will neither rub nor wash off.
