Long Hair.- —In one of his recent lectures, Dr. Erasmus Wilson exhibited the photograph or a woman thirty-eight years old and sft sin high, whose tresses, when she stood erect, enveloped her entire form in a veil, and trailed several inches on the ground. The longest fibres measured 6ft 3Hn. Thirty inches is the moan length for females, and 3ft is considered a remarkable length. This instance is exceeded, however, by two American women —one whose hair measures 7ft Gin ; and another the wife of a druggist' in Philadelphia, whose luxuriant chcvelure is almost as long, and so thick that when seated upon a chair she can cover herself with it. Holloway’s Ointment and Pills.— Diseases of the skin, ringworm, scurvy, aundice, scrofula or king’s evil,sore heads, and he most inveterate skin disease to which the human frame is subject, cannot be treated with a more safe and certain remedy than Holloway’s Ointment and Pills, which act so pcrculiarly on the constitution and so purify the blood, that these diseases are at once eradicated from the system, and a lasting cure obtained.

Ihe cures ffected by them are not temporary or apparent nly, but complete and permanent.
