COMMISSION Merchants, Galveston, Texas,
L have taken an office in Mr. E. B. Nichols
Brick Store, Market Street, where they are pre-
pared to do a general Commission business on the
following rules; to wit:
First, not to accept for, or advance to any par-
ty, be their condition and circumstances what
they may, unless on Produce actually in hand,
or on shipments to our friends in Europe and the
Northern Cities.
Secondly, to make prompt and faithful returns
of sales as soon as made; charging no more than
the usual Commission, and actual charges paid
out for handling the same.
Our object in calling attention to the above
rules by which we are determined to be govern-
ed, is, to so conduct our affairs as not to become
embarrassed, or compelled to sacrifice our Patrons
interest, by having to sell the Produce of one
party to meet the liabilities entered into for oth-
ers, but to keep ourselves free at all times to
hold, ship, or sell, according to instructions.

Professor Lombard's
ELECTRIC
HAIR RESTORATIVE.
IN Introducing this article into this State, the
Professor wishes to say a word to the wise,
as he believes that to be sufficient. This article
i1- purely vegetable, and was discovered by him
after long and arduous study, and has been nsed
privately for the past hve years, to his entire
satisfaction. It works on the head on the
ELECTRIC SYSTEM
immediately penetrating the cuticle bag which
contains all the fibres of the hair, thus cultivat-
ing the hair as a farmer would cultivate the
ground before he can have an abundant crop.
"Where the hair is falling out naturally, or by
sickness or fever, it shows that the hair is in an
unhealthy state and unless a preventive is imme-
diately resorted to the person finds himself bald.
THIS RESTORATIVE PREVENTS THE HAIR
FROM COMING OUT ;
But the Professor does not say that it will stop it
in a day but he does say this much, however,
and can prove that his Restorative has never fail-
ed to stop it in the short space of two weeks.
Ladies and gentlemen have had their hair re-
stored with this article after a baldness of sever-
al j'ears.
Some persons have asked me if it returns the
hair back to its original color .' For the benefit
of the public therefore, (without going into a
long category of tcpics and remarks on the hair,)
I will simply state why this article is used by the
most fastidious, and why it has gained such a
world-wide celebrity in so short a space of time.
It is becauso
THE ELECTRIC HAIR RESTORATIVE
contains no drug. It is purel3' vegetable, because
The Electric Hair Restorative frees the head from
dandruff: beautifies and softens the hair: does
I not leave the hair greasy or gummv; cures
headache; moistens and cools the head; prevents
the hair front falling out; turns the hair back to
its original color: effectually ourcsall cutaneous
diseases; effectually restores the hair.
Which abundance of certificates can prove by (
calling on Profe' ..r Lombard at the Temple ot
Fashion or on V. Kenney. and procuring a pam-
phlet Gratis. Professor Lombard has estab-
lished a branch in this place and in doing so has
associated himself with W. Renney, 3 1 the City
Hair Dressing Saloon on Main street, near the
Capitol, where his Electric Hair Restorative can
be procured at Wholesale and Retail, and by all
respectable Druggists
