The issue of The Adelaide (South Australia) Advertiser for June 14th, just received, gives the particular of a trail which prones that even in that far country the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co. is as active in defend ing its rights and protel,ting the public against the' schemes of the substituters and counterfeiters as it is here at home in Canada, In the trial in question Frank Ashley and William smith were shown to have been engaged in offering to substitute for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, claim- ing that the substitute was the same as that justly celebrated medicine. Both men were placed under arrest on a charge of obtaining money under false pretence and conspiring to defraud the public, and evidence was heard before the Chief Justice of the Criminal Court, The defen- dants' lawyer made a. strong fight in their behalf, but in spite of this the jury, after a short absence from the court returned a verdict' of guilty in both cases, The Chief Justice de- ferred sentence until the close of the sittings. In addressing the jury, however, the learned judge spoke 0very strongly concerning the evils of 0 substitution and the dangers to the 0 victim that may ensue from this 0 nefarious and too common practice. o -Toronto Globe. 3 0 1 1 x -b, 0 2 0 0 0-2.

What does it do P It causes the oil glands in the skin to become more active, making the hair soft and glossy, precisely as nature intended. It cleanses the scalp from dandruff and thus removes one of the great causesof baldness. It makes a better circu- lation in the scalp and stops the hair from coming out. Prevents it Cures leiness Ayer's Hair Vigor will surely make hair grow on bald heads, provided only there is any life remain- ing in the hair bulbs. It restores color to gray or white hair. It does not do this in a moment,' as will a hair dye; but in a short time the gray color of age gradually disap- pears and the darker color of youth takes its place.
