A small portion to be pourel upon the Head, and to be rubbed into the roots of the Hair. No Pomado required.
From its great nourishing power on tho follicles it may in time cause Hair to return to its natural color; it, however, does not contain a particle of any dyeing ingredient. Using it constantly will mirst, certainly pre vent the Hair falling. It is cleanly in use, the smallest quantity sufficing. It has no sediment, and therefore requires no shuking.

Instead of going back upon the Burlingame Treaty, and dôfng a thing so utterly an-American as to apply Protective lawa to immigration into the U.S. A, the Government should have. insisted upon the same freedom of accÐ S into China, being grapted to their citi- zens as that accorded by the United
jects. This would have made the re- ciprocity an accomplished fact, wheress it has hitherto been a more flourish of the pen upon a diplomatic document, and indeed was an empty flourish of words from their first utterance The 7th article of the Burlingam Treaty fairly illustrates the amount reciprocity conceded by that instrumen Look at it: Citizens of the Unite States shall enjoy all the privileges of the public educational institutions under the control of the Government of China,"

ciprocally, Chinese subjects shall enjoy all the privileges of the public educ tional institutions under the control of the Government of the United States,” etc.. This imperfect reciprocity again forces upon the attention the necessarily arbitrary rule of extra-territoriality, Upon the assumption that Chinese laws are as good ae American or English laws, and that the right of extra-territorial jurisdiction should not be confined to the Western Powers of civilisation, how is it that Western students have not docked to Peking “to enjoy all the privileges of the public educational in stitutions under the control of the Gov- ernment of China?
