TO DARKEN GEEY HAIR. Lockyer's Sulphur Hair Restorer, quickest, safest, best; restores the natural colour, Lockyer's, the real English Hair Restorer. Large bottles, 1/6, everywhere. —(Ad.)
A strike of eight hundred Russian women and girls, cigarette makers at Grodno, has just ended successfully. They complained of the miserable wages paid, of the system of counting 104 cigarettes to the hundred, of excessive fines, and of never being allowed to take food in the workshops, so that sometimes they had to fast fiom 8 a»m. to 3 p.m. All their grievances have been met, and the rate of wages is to be increased by one-half. This is a great victory in a country like Russia, where labour organisation has to be carried on secretly.
