a" Halloween"


The last day Of October, is the celebration
day Of Halloween "a festival that from
time immemorial almost has been the most pc
culiar Of Scottish festivals, observed by merry
making, feastiug, revelling and counting mid
The mountains and tho valleys, while the early
dawn sees these whilom boisterous pleasure
seekers on Blended knees Offering up their
suppfcaiions to all the angels aud saints of
Heaven.
Among the customs still prevalent in Scot
land, as the iniatory Halloween ceremony,
is that Of pulling kailstocks or stalks Of cole
wort, aud hence in this country the employ
meut ofcabbage-heads and stalks. In the old
country the young people used to go out hand
in hand. bHndfolded, into the kailyard or gar
den. and each pull the FIRST stalk which he
meets with. and then return to the fresido to
inspect their prizes. According as the stock
is big OF little straight or crooked so shall the
future wife or husband be Of the person by
whom it is pulled. Where Halloween is OBJ
served in this country the visiting TO the kali
ward or cabbagc-patch has more Of the ma
ture Of a trespass or predatory excursion by
bands Of youngsters who plumber unguardOd
patches, aud with the spoils afterwards rudely
pelt every closed door they pass, thus pervert-
ing pretty and harmless rustic sport into one
Of recklessness and waste.
Especially in our town, on Tuesday nigh;
last. was the return Of " Halloween celebrat-
cd in a graceless way by young sCamps who
peumbulated the streets, making the night
hideous with their yelis, and damaging door
panels and windows with clubs and stones.

Every year increases the popu-

aration, which is due to merit
alone. We can assure our old
patrons that it is kept fully up to
its high standard; and it is the on
" reliable and perfected prepara-
ton for restoring GRAY OR FADED
HAIR to its youthful color, making
it soft, lustrous, and silken. The
scalp, by its use, becomes white and
clean. 1t removes all eruptions and
dandruff, and, by its tonic proper
ties, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. BY its use, the
hair grows thicker and stronger.
In badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create a new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most
economical HAIR DRESSING ever
used, as it requires fewer applica-
tions, and gives the hair splendid,
glossy appearance. A. A. Hayes,

am happy 10 make a statement for the benefit
Of those suffering with lingering diseases, as fol-
lows:
have been afflicted for some years with a diff
hculty in my kidneys, liver catarrh at times, hav-
ing much giddiness in the head, could not walk
without staggering. My flesh had become much
wasted away, and had become much exhausted
that was nearly disqualified for business.
In the month of last March, at the earnest so
lcitation Of nv friend, Christian Smith, Supervis-
or of Engines on the Baltimore Ohio Railroad,
was induced to go to Cumberland and see DIR.
Stearns, who was then stopping at that place.
called on him, he described all my difficulties ac
curately without asking questions. He gave me a
treatment, the effects were the most satisfactory.
After taking his medicines for about four weeks,
nv giddiness passed away, health and strength
returned To my system, | gained rapidly in flesh,
and am now more healthy than have been for
wears. ISAAC FAUYER.
