A good Methodist brother in
Cincinnati raises his voice against
the church rule3 prohibiting at
tendance upon the theatre and
dancing and card parties. He says
that these regulations may be en
forced in the country, but that in
the city they are regularly and
constantly violated. Rules that
mean nothing ought to be stricken
from the books, in his opinion.
The servants are beginning to
inquire if it is not possible to pro
duce artificial light without the
immense waste of heat involved in
processes now in use. Professor
Langley in his paper read before
the National Academy of sciences
calls attention to the phosphores
cent light observed on the sea, and
argues that "chemistry should find
some means to imitate this process,
giving us a form of combustion
wherein the energy of fuel is all
converted into light, instead of be
ing mostly wasted in heat."
It does seem singular that so many
people will let their skin become yellow,
dark and greasy, (finally resulting in
blotches and skin eruptions, as well as a
general drying up of the blood, causing
wrinkles and premature old age), when
this can be remedied at so little expense.
Two bottles of Beggs' Blood Purifier and
Blood Maker will renew and purify the
blood throughout the whole system, leav

tions. A. F. Streitz Druggist.

At the Walton-Veazey nuptials
in Washington, a few da3Ts ago, the
bridal boquet was composed of five
small boquets tied together, in one
of which was concealed a ring.
The bride separated these as she
went up stairs and threw one to
each of the bridemaids. Miss Jan

Halford, caught the one containing
the ring, and every one began
speculating on the significance of

The troublesome question of as
sessment is again under discussion
in this state. In a few counties
in the state the assessors have de
cided upon a basis of assessment
much higher than that of other
neighboring counties, and as a con-
sequence sucn counties win pay
more than their proportion of
State taxes. The next legislature
can do good work by overhauling

SPECIFICS.
THE GREAT HAIR-EESTORER.
The use of various unguents to dress
and beautify the hair is a custom as old
and universal as the race ; hut prepara
tions to prevent the hair from falling
out, or for restoring it to its original
color and fullness, seem to he of modern
origin and confined to the limits of the
higher civilization. Probably the fatal
istic and superstitious ideas of the
ancients and of most barbarous people
would forbid their interfering with what
seems to be the course of nature, in
thinning the locks and sprinkling them
with gray, as life advances toward the
close.
The ancient Hebrew poetically termed
white hair "a crown of glory," and so it
is when it gracefully adorns the brows
of the aged. But when a person in the
full vigor of life becomes gray, his crav
frJfcair, so far from being a crown of glory,
is rather an indication of weakness aud
premature decay. "What may be ad
mired in "John Anderson, my Jo,
John" at eighty, is to be deplored in
John Anderson at thirty or forty.
It has been observed that early bald
ness is more common now than former
ly. "Whatever may be the cause of the
early loss of hair, there are few but
would avoid it if possible. Some attempt
to conceal the loss of their hair by
brushing what is left over the vacant
places; others brave out their misfor
tune, as did the fox when he lost his
tail; but the majority of, the "too pre
vious" ones look anxiously about for
something that will restore lost youth
fulness and hide their tell-tale phreno
logical deficiencies. For this purpose,
nothing has as yet been discovered that
surpasses Acer's Hair Vigor.
"We do not pretend that this prepara
tion will cause hair to grow on a scalp
that has been denuded for years and
polished like a billiard ball, but without
claiming for it any more than its just
due, we assert that it certainly promotes
the growth of hair, restores color to faded
and gray locks, heals humors, keeps the
scalp cool, prevents dandruff, and im
parts to the hair a silky texture and a
lasting fragrance. It will not stain the
Bkin or clothing. Though Ayer's Hair
Vigor has been before the public many
years, it is still in greater demand than
any similar preparation a convincing
proof of its superior merits and exten-sive;popularity.
