HairVigor,
For restoring to Gray Hair its
natural Vitality and Color.

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 new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling of, 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
lot soil white cambria, and vet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy
lustre, and grateful perfume.

THE n
The All-searchiBg Ordinance Under Dis
cussfOn among the City Parents
IL Is Generally Approved.

Last night the large ordinance on
privilege taxes was under discussion IN
Committee of the Whole by the Common
Council in the room Of the Aldermen,
City Hall. The long document was gen
orally adopted IS it was published In the
APPEAL a month ago, with some little
additions. Among them was one tax
Ing every man who deals IN cattle, and
has no yard, twenty-five dollars; those
who have yards are to be taxed one hum
dred dollars. Architects and designers,
fifty dollars. Chiropodists, hOrse-dOc-
tors 0cc0Ueheurs, and those who clip
dogs ears, are taxed the same as regular
doctors. Lawyers are taxed, but that
Is only nominal, for they will never
pay 1t. Street cars, fifty dollars
each, unless some previous con-
tract of a different character exists.
On the matter of taxing insurance COM
Panies there was a struggling debate.
II was fixed at eve hundred and
nifty dollars on each foreign COM
pany doing business here. That was re-
considered, and fixed at seven and a
half per cent. of their premiums. That
was ree~onsidered, and the tax fixed at
five per cent. of their premiums. Then
that was again reconsidered, and the
tax fixed again at seyen and a half on
premiums, and was so left standing.
Fhe Idea was to make fifteen thousand
dollars per annum out of the companies.
All those that give balls, twenty dol
lars per ball. Real estate brokers and
those who collect rent, one hundred dol
lars.
When the sections and paragraphs
had been all read and approved, COun-
Gilman Harvey offered the following
amendment:
Everything not otherwise mentioned,
ten dollars"
~Thissection was adopted by a vote of
two ayes to no noes.
The general Council will meet this
evening, at half-past seven, to make this
measure a law.
