LADIES ITEMS.

The distressing sickness and headache which result from nervous prostration and low vitality yield readily to the influence of electricity when scientifically and regularly applied. Dr. Scott's Electric Corsets have restored to health hundreds of ladies to whom life was a burden. Electricity acts as a vitaliser, giving an improved ton; to the nerves and gently stimulating the heart's action, regulates the circulation c: the blood. It cures by natural mean?, without recourse to drugs of any kind. There is no shock or sensation in wearing these corsets, and as they are all modelled on the, latest and most approved designs, they combine a useful and necessary article of apparel with a curative agent of inestimable value. In addition to corsets of the ordinary kind two special varieties ate made ; one for use by mothers in nurs'n-j, and the other the Abdominal, m pregnancy. These corsets are specially designed for the purpose for which they are intended, and will be found a pleasant support, affording a generous feeling of robusi health and energy. Ladies should ask their drapers or chemists to show them Dr. Scott's Electric Corsets and Belts, and give them a trial.—Kempthorne, Prosser, and Co., agents.

The peer amongst toilet eoaps is Colgat« s Cashmere Boquet. There is no soap which can equal it for purity, or the strength and refreshing qualities of its boquet. Ladies with delicate skin, or who value tneir complexion, should give it a trial.—All chemists.

For toothache, colds, rheumatism, or sny ailment amenable to external treatmens, use • St. Jacobs Oil. Household accidents of all kinds are relieved by its speedy application. Sprains, scalds, or pain of an} kind yields readily to it.

An Unsolicited Opinion.—The best way to make a boy happy is to get him a Waterbury watch, and for two dollars and ahaii you can do it. But the " Waterbury" is by no means a toy, for it can be relied on for exact time, and is of especial value iz the gift of a time-keeper, because it will stand more ordinary use than the delicate, high-priced watches, can be repaired roaUily at small expense, and keeps excellent time. A good deal of fuu has betn poked at the Waterbury watch because of the time it takes to wind them; but this in no way interferes with its general excellence as a timekeeper,—American Hebrew March 16, 1888.
