For restoring hair upon bald heads from Nhatcve

hair upon the face, it has no equal. 1t will force the
beard To grow upon the smoothest face in from five to
eight weeks, or hair upon bald heads in from two 10
three months. A few ignorant practitioners have asserted
that there is nothing dat will force or hasten the growth
of the hair or beard. Their assertions are false, as thou
sands of living witnesses from their own experience)
can bear witness. But many will say. how are we to
distinguish the genuine from the spurious: 1t certainly
is difficult. as ninc-tcnths of the different preparations

A Western Romance,
ENocH ARDEN EcLlpsED.

The Courier, published at Muscatine,
Iowa, relates story Of one John Hughes,
who resided at Aledo, in that neighbor-
hood, at the commencement of the late
war, and who entered the army after being
oaly week married to young lady to
whom he had been long attached. He
fell into the hands of the enemy during
the Red River Expedition, and was sent
to Tyler, Texas, where, in consequence OF
hard treatment, he became insane. Mean
time news went home that he had been
killed, and his regimental muster roll bore
out the rumor, His young bride mourned
for him nearly Two years, when, on the
advice of her parents aud friends, she ac-
cepted the hand of another, and married
him last December Her first husband
was discharged from the asylum restored
again to his reason, and SO soon as he
could accumulate the necessary means, he
started for home. Arriving at the near
est river town to Aledo, he fell in with a
man from that place, and without making
himself known soon learned the condition
of affairs at home. Greved beyond ex-
preston, he though, over the situation, and
finally determined, like Enoch Arden, 10
leave his whilom wife and her new-found
love TO themselves. Following out the
resolve, he went up into lama County,
where he had distant relatives living. The
desire to hear from his old home became
at last so absorbing that, under an assumed
name, he subscribed to the village paper.
Last month he saw an announcement OF
the death of his wife's second husband
together with paragraph sympathizing
with the bereaved widow, and giving an
account of his own melancholy death as
illustrative of the hardness Of her lot
Knowing that his wife was again free, he
forgot whatever resentment he might have
felt over her second marriage, and on Sat
urday last he put in his appearance in
person. The meeting was undoubtedly a
happy one, as a few days afterward the
couple were seen on the way TO Talma
looking as loving as bride and bridegroom
could be.

before others coming in, found the cashier
on the floor and gave the alarm, but the
thieves were already out of reach.
MIR. Bisphan. after being released, was
conveyed to his house, short distance
from the bank, where he soon recovered
his consciousness, and though somewhat
bruised was not seriously injured. He
thinks the burglar used his fist in knock

FOL may have produced the abrasion of the
skin on the side of the temple. He had
no weapon OF defense in the room. and
against three opponents it would have been
useless.

A Sad Career.

The career OF James A. McDougal late
a Senator in the Senate of the United
States from California, who died at Albany,
N. Y, September Sd, is melancholy in
stance OF brilliant faculties and great OPP
portunities recklessly wasted and pervert-
ed. He was a native Of Albany in 1917.
In early life his intellectual promise gave
augury of useful and successful life. A
lawyer by profession, he removed to Cali
for'da soon after the discovery of gold,
which led to the settlement of that state,
and there by his great talents. energy, and
brilliant oratory soon became prominent,
and rose rapidly and successfully from
member OF the Leg stature to member
in Congress, and then to United States
Senator. A passion for strong drink proved
his ruin. He became insensi5le to sll
shame, and a disgrace to his constituents.
Last year he was superseded in the SEN
ate, when he went back to his native city.
anu ubtii utdtu came 10 N Is
relief. The Albany Evening Journal has
the following in relation to the closing
scenes of his life:
A few days SINCE ore of our most re-
specied physicians, while visiting a patient
in the vicinity, was called to enter the
dwelling in question and see sick man.
lie did SO, and found poor, broken wreck
OF humanity, lettering upon the verge of
the grave, in the last stages of dreadful
disease. Despite the ruin, physical and
mental, which this unfortunate presented,
there weIe at occasional moments glim-
merings of intelligence which showed that
the wretched being had been something
more than an ordinary man. When the
physician left, he was informed tina. he
had seen what was left of Senator Me-
Dougal. The mournfui drama is ended,
and the curtain has dropped"

The Execution of Maximilian.


We have published several accounts of
the execution of the late Emperor of Mex
leo, but none of them, it seems We're cor
rect. Tudos, Maximilian's body servant,
and the priest who attended him in his
last moments, give the following descrip-
ton of the tragedy, which no doubt is the
authentic one. We omit the preliminary
proceedings, as described by the narrators,
excepting only the facts that there were
five men detailed TO shoot each prisoner
one 10 act as a reserve; that they stood
five PAGES distant, and that the condemned
stood three feet apart from each other.
His Majesty placed his hand on his
breast to show the soldiers where TO fire,
and opened his arms to receive the shots.
The signal was given and the four men
fred The Emperor looked upward and
fell slowly, in sitting position. He was
struck by all four balls, by three on the
lower part of his waistcoat on the left side
and by one far up on the right. He moved
his eyes and arm and looked toward Tu-
dos, who had been standing only three
PAGES from him, as if he wished to speak,
but he was not able to articulate. One of
the priests sprinkled him with holy water.
The man held in reserve then came up
and gave him the fifth ball, but it only
went through the lungs on the right side.
The muzzle of the gun was so close that
the waistcoai took fire and Tudos had to
pour water on it to put out the flame.
The Emperor in his agony pulled at his
waistcoat as if to open it, and tore it at
the fifth button-hole from the bottom. He
continued moving so that another soldier
was brought up, but his rifle mis- ed fire.
Gen. Diaz came up on horseback and told
them 10 make haste and finish again sol
dier came up aud pulled and again the piece
miss fire. There were no more men ready
with their guns Loaded, and some moments
were lost in finding one. AT last one was
brought who stepped up and fred, and
this time the shot went through the EN-
peror's heart, and put an end TO his suffer-
ings. He gavea conyulsiye start, gasped,
and fell back dead. His dress had again
caught fire, and Tudos had to extinguish
it with water The Emperor must have
lived about two minutes after he receie ed
the first fire.
Four cargadores then brought a rough
kind of coffin, 200 short for the body,
which was pushed in with the legs hang
ing over the edge, and in that manner it
was carried back to Queretaro, unaccom-
panied by any officials; it was followed,
however, by great number of poor In
dams, weeping loudly. Every drop of
blood which fell upon the ground was

these poor people. Mejia did not die till
after the Emperor; it took seven balls TO
kill him. Aliramon was the only one of
the three who died Immediately. All three
were fired al at the same moment. 1t was
his Majesty's pa' ticular wish that, in case
they were condemned, they should all be
executed together"

A NOBLE AcT.-Nearly nine ago Miss
Cyrene Woodwork, daughter of Mr..
John Woodwork of Midlletown, became
insane. Her friends being unable 10 sup
port her in her sad condition, she was re-
moved TO the Asylum at Brattleboro, and
has been there supported at the expense
of the town of Middletown. A few DAYS
since younger brother named Andrew
Jackson Woodwork, returned on visit
after an absence Of several years, and
called upon the Selectmen of the town 10
ascertain the amount that has been adj
vanced for the maintenance of his sister.
A statement was made which amounted to
nearly nine hundred dollars. He at once
paid the town the sum of one thousand
dollars, and as the case of his sister is
hopeless. he made provision for her future
support at Brattleboro This act is one in
thousand, and is worthy of this public
record A young man of energy and in
dustry he has laid aside his income that
he might aid an unfortunate relative and
repay those who had under the laws given
her maintenance. He also made dona-
tions for an aged father who was disabled
in the war of 1912, whose only dependence
was pension, also sundry donations 10

stead of spending their lives in Incidence
