A young lady was withdrawn from the Cincinnati school of design by request of her female associates, be- cause she attended the might fife class with gentleman and sketched a nude male figure. She explained the situation to a Penny paper repor- ter and added: ‘+The pertect hu- man form, male and female, are truc types of torm and preportion. It is nee ry to be conversant withitin order to judge of all beauty. For this reason 1 contend. I was right when I drew from the nude.

Immediately after the shooting Evans left the neighbor- | hood and has not been. seen since, and on Sunday afternoon Mills, af- ter suffering untold agony, breathed his last!

Ir is a most agreeable dressing, which fs at once harmless and effectual, for pre- | serving the hair. It restores, with the gloss and freshness of youth, faded or gray, light, and red hair, to a rich brown, or deep black, as may be desired. By its use thin hair is thickened, aud baldness often though not always cured. It checks falling of the hair immediately, and causes a new growth in all cases where the glands are not decayed; while to brashy, weak, or | otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitality | and strength, and renders, it pliable. | The Vicor cleanses the scalp, cures and prevents the formation of dandruff; and, by its cooling, stimulating, and soothing properties, it heals most if not all of the humors and diseases peculiar to the scalp, keeping it cool, clean, and soft, under which conditions diseases of the scalp and hair are impossible. As a Dressing for Ladies’ Hair The Vicor is incomparable. It is color. * less, contains neither oil nor dye, and will not soil white cambric. It imparts an ble and lasting perfume, and as an for the toilet it is economical and ssed in its excellence. pared by Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co., Vractical and Analytical Chemists, Lowell, Mass.
