A KISS AT THE DOOR.

We were standing by the doorway
Ny little wife and 1.
The COLDER sun upon her
Fell down so silently,
A small white hand upon my arm,
What could ask for more
Than the kindly glance for loving eyes,
As she kissed me at the door,
/ know she loves me all her heart
The one who stands beside;
And the years have been so Joyous
Since first called her bride.
We've had so much of happiness
Since we met in years before;
But the happiest time of all was
When she kissed me at the door.
Who cares for wealth Of land or gold,
For fame or matchless power?
1t does not give the happiness
Ofjust one little hour
With one who loves me as her life
She says she loves me more
And thought she did this morning
When she kissed me at the door.
AT times 1T seems as all the world,
With all its wealth of gold,
Is very small and poor, indeed,
Compared with what hold
And when the clouds hang grim and dark
l only think the more
OF one who waits the coming step,
To kiss me at the door,
If she lives till age shall scatter
Its frosts upon her head,
j know she'll love me Just the same
AS the morning we were wed;
But the angels call her,
And she goes to heaven before;
shall know her when meet her,
For she'll kiss me at the door.

gloss and freshness Of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that a new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
ton of dandruff, which is often so un-
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy
lustre, and grateful perfume.
