The public are beginning to find out
that Eastern ready-made clothing is all
a cheat, and that it is far better to have
clothes made to order; thus getting good
fits and good material. At the clothing
store of Mains & Bro may be found a
variety of frst-class, fashionable goods,
which they are prepared to make up to
order on short notice, and at very reason
able prices.

A Partner for Life,

What is the aim of nine out of ten of
the young ladies who have suitors visi-
ting them? Do they have any? Ger
tainiy-niost of them do, only to forget
it. n little presence of mind on these
occasions would save future unhappi-
ness. The young gentlemen, in many
instances, is agreeable, gay and hand
some; and this dazzles the eyes so utter
ly, that the young lady refuses to look
farther. She should satisfy herself on
such points as these: "WiH those eyes,
in which Cupid now dances so merrily,
always find expression from the love of
true soul? Now he says many pleas
ant things, and draws pretty pictures for
the future. Does he go tomorrow to
work which gives promise of the full
fillment of your desires in life? Do his
ambitions and achievements satisfy you?
Does his everyday life shine with the
noble endeavors of a trustworthy man?
If you think and desire companion in
your thinking-one who would unlock
the deepest depths of your mind-to
what stratum of humanity does he belong
in the scale of excellence and morality?
Is he doing all he can to build up fu-
ture usefulness and happiness, in which
you can share and feel blessed?
These are questions which the exper-
ience of after years makes many women
weep in bitterness of soul, that they had
not thought of before they answered
eyes" We should look out for to-day's
regulations and to-morrow's successes.
The witticisms and endear1nents lavish
ed so freely may be, and doubtless are,
indeed, very pleasant; but they will not
last. They will grow tame and spirit
less; and, if nothing else comes to take
their place, woe to the happiness vainly
invoked on the shores of the desoIat ion
opening all around Be careful then,
in choosing partner for life; look be-
low the surface; for, as pearls do not
float, neither are the best traits of char
acter always the most prominent. True
hearts and willing hands unite to make
happy home.

color, qcith the gloss and freshness Of
yoatth. Thin hair is thickened, fall
ing hair checked, and badness often,
though not always, cured by its
use. Nothing can restore the hair
where the follicles are destroyed, or
the glands atrophied and decayed;
but such as remain can be saved by
this application, and stimulated into
activity, so that a new growth of
hair is produced. Instead of fouling
the hair with a pasty sediment, it
will keep it clean and vigorous. Its
occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling Oft
and consequently prevent badness.
The restoration Of vitality it gives
to the scalp arrests and prevents
the formation of dandruff, which is
often so uncleanly and offensive.
Free from those deleterious sub
stances which make some prepara-
tions dangerous, and injurious 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. Contain
ing neither oil nor dye, it does not
soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it a rich,
glossy lustre, and grateful perfume.
