Ayer's Hair Vigor is a hair-food. It feeds the
hair and the hair grows. That's all there is to it.
And it is a splendid tonic to the hair, giving
the hair follicles tone and strength. This is why
it checks falling hair so promptly.
As a dressing, it Keeps the hair soft and smooth

NEW YORK, May 12. R. U. Dun's
Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will Bay:
'Unsettled weather mill retard retail trade

much letter than normal and far more
satisfactory thnn at this time In lifl4. Mer
cantile puyments are fairly prompt, money

decline in Wall street to the lowest average
for the six most active railway securities
since last January has had no percept! hie
influence on business and railroad earnings
continue to make favorable comparisons
with last years Ilgures, the early returns
for April showing a gain of H.7 per cent.
Manufacturlnc activity is unabated, the
leading industries representing a minimum
tatce or idle machinery, and pig iron
lion is expected to establish a new
of over 2.1M1.UO0 tons for the current
month. Foreign commerce has again shown
an increase at this port over the same week
last year, imports gaining J2,106,o66. For
the first time In many weeks the compari
son as to exports was unfavorable, but the
decrease was only t275,3fi. Real estate
transfers are very heavy in all parts of
the country, and In addition to the large
amount of building operations, the number
of new permits Indicate that much more
structural work is contemplated. Little
interruption from labor controversies is still
cause for gratification.
A little irregularity is noticed In reports
from the leading centers of the Iron and
Ceei Industry, but it was not to be ex
pected that, production and consumption
would continue to establish new high water
marks indefinitely. There is still great
pressure for quick delivery of structural
steel for bridges, buildings and cars, while
practically all forms f railway equipment
are In larger demand than supply.
After the stimulation of the sales last
week a decrease in activity for the dry
goods market was to be expected. In the
primary markets for cottons a few buyers
till purchase for distant delivery, but as
A rule operations are again confined to
current requirments. The advancing raw
material strengthens .woolens, in which
duplicate business arrives more freely. In
textile lines the mills are now well en
raged. New Enrland shoe shops are re
ceiving additional fall orders, the prospect
now being lor as good as In 190. While
the hide market has lost none of its
strength, it is less active, but there Is a
notable scarcity of country hides, which
are especially firm.

Maeh Talent Developed.
Much talent was developed in the con
test which was pronounced the best one
ever had In all respects. Raymond Hay-
ward was the leader of the winning side
and William Robertson of the other. En
thusiasm boiled over all the time, and the
occasion was replete with school feeling
and fun.
Miss Georgia Ellsberry took the piano
solo for the Whites with Lizst's "Lleb-
straussc." Miss Dora Stevens, her oppo
nent, played Pindong's "Rustle of Spring"
and "Valse Brilliante," by Moskowski.
For the same side Miss Imogen McCaig
had the winning essay on "American
Womanhood," wjilch the writer found bet
ter than all others because of education.
She counseled, however, that the modern
cultured woman slack up a bit to let the
overworked man get a chance at some of
the higher pleasures of life that he is
missing. Miss Constance Buddenberg's es
say was an exposition of the character of
Tito Melema, from "Romola."
Charles .Brome, who has made a name
for himself as a debater at the high school,
represented the Reds, and won the oration,
talking about "Honesty and Integrity in
American Politics." Evidently the Judges
thought he put more originality and force
Into It than James McCulloch with
"America's Heritage," as the latter spoke
with better stage presence.
The poem contest brought out two very
clever satirical efforts by Miss Elisabetli
Rolofson for the Whites, and Miss Marion
Funkhouser for the Reds. The prize was
given to Miss Rolofson, who had memor
ized her contribution, but there were many
who thought that the elocution of Miss
Funkhouser would have obtained for ber
the decision.
Two Torsi Solos.
There were two vecal solo contests, Ad
dlson Mould taking one for the Reds, with
a song called "The Pirate," and Miss
Florence DeGraff evening things up for
the Whites with DeKoven's "Popples.
The loners were George Long and Miss Mar
garet Whitney, but what they did helped
out the enjoyment of the afternoon a great
deal. Miss DeG raff's honors were easy as
pclse", muslclanly acoomplishments and
beauty are rarely combined so early In
life.'
The recitation contest was another fea.
ture that brought out two numbers be
tokening considerable histrionic ability. The
point went to Miss Julia Nagle of the Reds
and she was entitled to It, being one of
the stars of the day in delineating several
characters in a pocket edition of the play
"If I ,Were King." Her opponent did
bit concerning a convict and how he re
gained his grip on life very well, but did
not have the latitude in it that Miss Nagle
did in her choice.
The debate, which was pulled down for
the Reds by Arthur Proctor against Carl
Van Saut, was on the question, "Resolved,
That the small colleges develop better
clUsenshlp than the large colleges or unl
versltles." Mr. Proctor took it with the
affirmative, using the time worn arguments
of small college presidents.
The burlesques were really funny, but
the Reds outclassed the other. The former
had to do with "The Merchant of Venice,'
with Bhylock representing the Whites and
attempting to get his pound of flesh by
"bluff." No little music was introduced
making it a kind of miniature comedy. The
show that the Whites put on did not dis
play the same care and finish and was not
nearly so attractive, being on the whole
rather flat. Those who participated in the
burlesques were:
Reds Homer Conant, Frank Lundstrom
Addison Mould, Raymond Hay ward, Arthur
Proctor, Raymond Steele, Mattle Bliss,
Margaret Whitney, Blanche Bolln, Alice
Bolton, May Sullivan, Hazel Crow, Julia
Nagle, Via Waterhouse, Herbert Llndquest,
Roy Ralph, Joe Wolf.
Whites Herbert Webb, John Olney, Don
ald Douglas, Walter Roessig, Ernest C'hrist
ensen. Homer Searles, Arthur Lavidge,
Robert Switzler, Raymond Stromberg, Uuy
Reese, Verner McCormack.

HEAVY LOSSESNEAR STURGIS
Horaes folTer More Than Cattle In
Recent Storm In Blaek
Hill.
STI'RGIS, S. TD., May 11 (Special. )-Re-ports
from all parts of Meade county con
cerning last week's big storm are conflict
ing enough to suit anybody, but all go to
show that a big loss in stock was sus
tained. The largest losses, comparatively,
seem to have been in the eastern half of the
county, although they were bad enough up
this way.
A peculiar feature of the storm was the
big percentage of horses lost. Generally
a horse can live where a hundred cattle
would lie down and die, but this time a
greater percentage of horses gave up the
ghost not numbers, but percentage. The
sheep also suffered. Sheepmen on Grand
river are said to have lost $30,000 In the
storm. Many good, careful farmers lost
heavily.
The storm was as bad out on Sulphur
as near the foothills, and probably ex
tended out to the Mores u. If so, there will
be a big percentage of loss all over the
north country, in all classes of stock.
