Vitalize tho Hair.-Why does the hair be-
come harsh and dry-why does it fall out-why
does it become gray? Simply because the life
has gone out of it. The fibers draw sustenance
from the scalp the grass draws aliment from
cut off in either case the product withers and
dies. At the first symptom of decay, therefore,
the unfed or half-fed roots of the hair should be
refreshed and reinforced with LYONS KATHA!-
ron, the only preparation which will nourish
the tilaments and keep them in vigorous con-
dition after they have begun to suffer from
deficiency of their natural stimulant. AS long
as the Klthairon is faithfully used, with n
proper degree of friction, morning and even
ing so long will it be impossible for the hair to-
whiten or fall out from the scalp.

Our County Fair.

The approaching annual exhibition OF the
Anderson Farmers and Mechanics Associa-
ton possesses more attractions than usual, in
consequence of the fact that suitable arrange
ments are making to afford every facility to
exhibitors and visitors. The Association has
purchased aa eligible site for the Fair Grounds,
being the lot owned by Mr.. Stephen McCully
on Pendleton Street, Immediately opposite the
residence of Mr.. S. Beckley, and containing
eight acres, situated within one-half mile OF the
Court House. The contract for the erection OF
convenient buildings, as we have heretofore
announced, is in the hands of Col. F. A Hoke,
an experienced contractor, who will have the
main building completed on or before the 10th
of October. The grounds will afford good
trotting track, which will be prepared in ample
time for the Fair, which takes place on the
s0th and 91st of October, and the 1st day of
November. We have published the Premium
List, which has been carefully prepared, and
which embraces largely extended list of arti-
cles in the several departments.
The President and Directors deserve much
credit for the energetic manner in which they
are pushing forward the work of firmly estab-
fishing this institution in our midst. Let the
farmers come to their aid by subscribing liber-
ally to the capital stock of the Association
These assemblies every year cannot fail to i'm
prove the condition of agriculture in its various
branches, and the efforts now being made to
render this permanent success ought to be
sustained heartily by the farmers. The social
feature of these annual gathering cannot be
too strongly urged upon cur people, and we
think that it is duly appreciated throughout the
County.

DR.. Wm. II. Tutt-Dear Sir: feel it a duty
to you and to suffering humanity to makepub-
lie the great merits of your Extract Sarsaparilla
and Queens Delight. For years have been
great sufferer, my general health broke down,
and was afflicted with nervousness of the
most terrible character, which was soon follow
ed by an eruption all over the body, forming
large ulcers in some places, and attended with
rheumatic palms. Tongue cannot describe my
suffering; was reduced almost to skeleton,
and had perfect loathing of food. I was at
tended by several physicians, who rendered me
no relief Idespaired Of ever being well again;
but thanks to a kind Providence, 1 accidentally
heard of your medicine. Isent for half dozen
bottles, and before had taken three began to
feel better, my appetite improved, and the
rheumatic pains became less severe, and I
could enjoy sleep. I have continued its use,
and have taken eleven bottles, and believe
am a sound man again. The ulcers have all
healed, my skin is smooth and healthy, and
have gained % pounds in weight. believe my
sickness resulted from taint of scrofula. I
would earnestly recommend your compoundto to-
my fellow sufferers.
With deep gratitude to you, am ever your
friend, JAS. FRANKLIN.

MORE ABOUT THE PERSIAN FAMINE.
The latest news from the East tells no
more hopeful tale of the famine in Per-
STA. Notwithstanding the praiseworthy
activity and energy displayed by the
British agents who have undertaken the
Christian work of relief to aid the suf-
ferers, there are deaths occurring daily
from that most terrible of all causes
starvation. The backward state of Per-
STA, without railroads or even decent
roads over which to transmit food to the
interior, renders it impossible to be able
to afford adequate relief in time. Even
if sufficient food to meet all the exigen-
cies of the times were close to the from
tier it would be impossible to do more
than what has already been done for the
famine stricken Persians. Relief, how
ever, is afforded the sufferers as rapidly
as the poor means of travel through the
country will admit Of.

Coon MANNERS. Young folks should
be mannerly. How to be so, is the ques-
ton. Many good girl and boy feel
that they can't behave to suit themselves
in the presence of company. They are
timid, bashful and self distrustful the
moment they are addressed by stranger,
or appear In company. There is out
one way to get over this feeling and ac-
quire easy and graceful manners; that
is, do the best they can all the time at
home as well as abroad. Good manners
are not learned by arbitrary teaching, SO
much as acquired by habit. They grow
upon us by use. We must be courteous,
agreeable, civil, kind, gentlemanly and
womanly at home, and then it will be
come kind of second nature to be SC
everywhere. A coarse rough manner at
home begets habit of roughness which
we cannot lay off if we try, when we &c
among strangers. The most agreeable
people we have ever known in company
are those who are perfectly agreeable a
home. Home is the school for all things
good, especially for good manners.

How Much HAY HORSE EATS
The Stock Journal says; An acre Of
ground retained expressly for hay yields
on an average not more than one and a
half tons of vegetable food; an equal
space planted with carrots or ruttoagas
will yield from ten to twenty tons
which is by no means high average,
and has often been attained without any
extraordinary attention. 1t has been as
certained by careful examination that
three working horses, fifteen and a half
hands high, consume hay at the rate of
200 pounds a week, or five tons 1,049
pounds per annum besides one and a
half bushels of oats per week, rs bush
els per annum. By repetition of the
same experiment it is found that unwork-
ed horses consume hay at the rate of four
and a quarter tons per annum.
The produce therefore, of nearly six
acres of land is necessary to support a
working horse for one year; but half an
acre of carrots, GOO bushels per acre,
with the addition of choppihg straw
while the season Of feeding them lasts
will do as well if not better. These
things do not admit of doubt, for tn y
have been the subjects OF exact trials, a.
some of your agricultural friends will
testify.
1t has also proved that the value Of
one bushel of corn, together with the fod
der upon which it grew, will keep horse
in good order for a week. An acrt
planted in corn and yielding sixty bush
els will be ample to keep a good-sizeC
horse in working order one year.
Let the farmer then consider whether
il is better to maintain horse on thu
produce of half an acre of rutabagas o.
carrots, or upon the produce of an acr,
of corn or, otherwise the hay and grail
from six acres of land; for it will re
quire six acres of land to produce tn,
necessary hay and grain, as above. TIL
same reasoning might be made use of il
the feeding of cattle and sheep.

GRAVES IN THE DEsERT.-William 9.
Bryant's book of travels in the Orient
has recently been published. The fol-
lowing is an account of an Arab burial
place in the desert, on the way from AL
exandria to Jerusalem:
Gwen in this desert is felt the instinct
which prompts us to beautify the resting
places of the dead. The region produc-
es a liliaceous plant, with a large bulb,
and large, thick leaves, of deep green
color. Bunches of these were planted
at the head and foot of many of the
graves. A singular custom, | perceive
prevails here of laying the garments of
the dead on the ground above them. AT
the head Of one of the graves lay wo-
mans's blue cotton dress, as fresh, almost
in appearance, as if it had just. come
from the loom. | remarked several ar
ticles of male attire, some of them much
decayed by the length of time they had
remained on the ground. On one poor
fellows grave lay only his thrump cap,
probably the sole part of his raiment
which was thought in fit condition to
serve as monument. The grave of a
child fixed my attention at each end of
which a tuft of the plant have already
mentioned was growing freshly, and be-
tween them lay little garment of blue
cotton, and another of white with a
crimson stripe running through it. Near
by. and probably dragged away by the
llackals, was the skin of lamb, with a
soft, silky fleece, which had formed the
child's outer garment in winter. | re-
placed it on the grave, and could not
help thinking how tenderly. to judge by
these tokens, that child must have been
cherished, and that, when it was carried
out dead from the humble abode of its
parents, their low brown tents pitched on
the green sward, the heart of its mother
must have been pierced by sorrow as
sharp as is felt at such loss in the most
civilized country.

Antiquity of Man.

Professor Duncan, in addressing the
British Association upon the principal
geological changes which have occurred
in Europe since the appearance Of man,
promised that no trace of man has been
found associated with any deposits form
ed during the glacial period IN Northern
Europe. The earliest remains OF man
and his works, and of the beasts associa-
tad with him and hunted by him, rest
upon these deposits resulting from gla-
cial causes, and are, therefore later in
time. A second period, however, of
mountain rehabilitation took place when
the glaciers of the Alps and Pyrenees,
especially, extended far into the districts
below them. This was subsequent to
the existence of man, since the mud and
gravel produced by the grinding down
of the mountain sides during this period,
and its qualification over the plains, are
found to cover the remains of man and
his works; and, therefore, to be of lat
err epoch.
This second glacialization, and the ar
rangement OF the wash, are suggested as
forming line of separation between the
paleolilhic period, when man used rude
stone weapons, and the neolithic period,
when smooth, polished instruments were
manufactured and, in general sense,
marking the time when the great mani
malta disappeared from the northern and
western parts of Europe.
Among the principal geological chang
IS which occurred after the appearance Of
man in Europe, our author enumerates
the subsistence Of an area of land which
connected Sicily with Crete and North
ern Africa north Of the Sahara; the for
nation of the Straits of Gibraltar; the
excavation of the valleys of Northernanc
Eastern France the separation of thu
coasts of France and England, in the re
gion about Dover and Calais, and that o
the Isle of Wight from the main land
the formation of great part of the Brit
ish Channel; considerable upheaval o
the Scandinavian peninsula and Den
mark; the uprise of the Desert of Saba
ra in Africa, after the second extension
of the Alpine glacier.

SPEAK KINDLY TO HIM-A farmer
was once saved by very poor boy from
drowning. After his restoration he said
to him:
"What can do for you my hoy ?"
Speak kind word to me sometimes"
replied the boy, as the tears gushed from
his eyes. 81 amt got any mother like
some of them"
A kind word? Think it. That far.
mer had it in his power to give the poor
boy money, clothes, playthings, but the
poor boy craved nothing so much as a
kind word now and then. If the farmer
had ever so little heart the poor boy
must certainly have had the wish graft
fed.
A kind word? You have many Of
them spoken to you daily, and you don't
think much of their value; but thai
poor BOY in your village at whom every
body laughs, would think that he haC
found treasure if somebody woulc
speak kind word to him. Suppose yol
speak it the next time you meet him, in
stead of laughing at him. Then watcl
him and see how he looks.

Tact and Talent.

Talent is something, but tact is every
thing. Talent is serious, sober, grave
and respectable tact is all that aud
more too. 1t is not sixth sense, but 1t
is the life of all the five, 1t is the open
eye, the quick ear, the judging taste, the
keen smell and the lively touch; 1t is
the interpreter of all riddles, the sur
mounting of all difficulties, the rea"oVei
of all obstacles. 1t is useful IN all PA
"a. and at all times; it is useful in soli-
tude for il shows man his way into
the world it is useful in society, for it
shows him his way through the world.
Talent is power, tact is skill; talent is
weight, tact is momentum; talent knows
what to do, tact knows how to do it tai
ent makes a man respectable, tact will
make him respected talent is wealth,
tact is ready money. For all the prac-
teal purposes of life, tact carries 1t
against talent, ten to one. Take them
to the bar together and let them shake
their learned curls at each other in legal
rivalry; talent sees its way clearly, but
tact is soonest at its journeys end. Tai
ent has many a compliment paid 1t
from the bench, but tact touches fees
from attorneys and clients. Talent speaks
learnedly and logically, tact triumphant
". Talent makes The world wonder
that i. gets on no faster, tact excites as
constituent that it gets on so fast. And
the secret is, that it has no weight to
carry it makes no false steps, it looses
no time; it takes all hints; and by keep
ing its eye on the weather cock, is able to
take advantage of every wind that blows.
Take them into the church. Talent has
always had something that is worth hear
ing, tact is sure of abundance of hearers
talent may obtain living, tact will make
one; talent gets a good name, tact a
great one; talent convinces, tact converts
talent is an honor to the profession, tact
gains honor from the profession. Place
them in the Senate. Talent bias the cal
of the house. but tact wins its heart and
its votes. 1t has knaok ofstepping in
to place with sweet silence and glib
ness of movement, as billiard ball in
sinuates itself into the pocket. Itseemi
to know everything without learning any
thing; it has no left hand, no deaf ear, ne
blind side. 1t puts ON no looks of won
drous wisdom, it has no air of profundit.
but plays with the details of place a
dextrously as we'll taught hand flour
ishes over the keys of the piano-forte
1t has all the air of commonplace, anC
the force and power Of genius.
