Every year increases the populari-
ty Of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and tits the onlyreliable and perfect
ed preparation 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. Itremoves all eruptions
and dandruff, and, by its tonic prop
critics, 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 yigor, and
will create a new growth, except in
extreme old age. It's the most eco
nomical Hair DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A, Hayes, MD,

RATION for its intended purposes"

A WAY TO MURDER MURDER
ERS.

I. The scaffold, as an instrument o
capital punishment, is to be supplantf
ed in Austria after this year by the
plan of shooting the culprit to death.
1t is esteemed a less barbarous and
more speedy method Of giving an in
dividual his quietus than by the
rope. Much of the hostility to cap
ital punishment in this country arr
ses from the horrible spectacles often
presented at executions, caused by
the bungling of clumsy or nervous
officials. There is no chance for
these terrible scenes where the SEN
tence is fulfilled by a file Of sharp
shooters. If we cannot accept the
merciful expedient Of taking life by
anodynes, it seems to us that the
Austrian method might be adopted
with great satisfaction to the MAORI
ty Of our people. " Y. CONNER

HORRIBLE MURDER.

CANTON, Ill, Aug. GA terrible
murder occurred about mile west
of Yates City on Monday morning.
The victim was the wife Of John
MatthewsoA. Matthewson and a
hired man left the house at daylight,
to do harvest work some distance
from the house, and did not return
until night, when the body Of the
murdered wife was found in the eel
lar, with her throat cut, and skull
mashed. The murderer is not
known, but suspicious rest on man
who was near the house that morn
ing, inquiring for work, Detectives
are on his track.
The particulars, as near as we can
ascertain, are that the murderer went
into the house about 8 o'clock in the
morning, and ordered breakfast.
While Mrs. Matthewson was prepar-
ing it, he undertook to ravish her,
and she resisted. Her clothing and
person showed unmistakable signs
that there was a terrible struggle for
life. Her hand was horribly cut,
as she tried to grasp the knife from
the murderer's hand. The family is
very respectable, and among the first
in the county. She had been mar
ried but a few months. Great ex-
element prevails, and mounted
horsemen are securing the country
in search of the murderer. A reward
Of 81 900 is offered for the murder

eource OF anxiety, to the Imperial Cabinet, which
was contemplating the, hazardous step of adopting
means to checR. 1t. Some little light these APP
prehensions is shed by the statement that it will
take five years to bring the immense works OF

ready scarcity Of laborers, although the men are
paid from seventy-fve cents to eighty cents day.
and lodged gratis, while beer is cheap and good.

that we forgot to take Adequately into account

gloss and freshness of yoatth. Thin
hair is thickened, fallen hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by it's use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles a1e 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 grey or falling off, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration Of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
ton of dandruf, which is often SO IN
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which male
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it, If wanted
merely for a 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.
