A preparative SO widely and favorably
known as Halls Vegetable Sicilian Hair
Remover, needs few words Of praise from
us. This compound has won its way to
the highest favor Of the public mind /; and
multitudes, who havs vainly used other
remedies for the restoration of their hair,
have, on trying the Sicilian Remover,
been made glad by the speedy restora-
ton Of their gray hair to its natural col
or, and the thin locks thickened up, as in
the days of early youth. 1t also prevents
the hair falling out, makes it soft and
glossy, and is altogether the best prepa-
ton for its intended purpose before the
public. -Pittsburg Chronicle.

The thief who was arrested for robbing
Parsons in this town, was found to have
. quantity Of Ayers Hair vigor in his
possession. When asked why he wished
to steal that article, he answered that he
wanted to restore his hair, for it was
hard to be thief and bald, too" If that
invention Of the great chemist could re-
store faded character as effectually . it
does their natural beauty to bald and
grey heads, it would surely be, as they
say it now is, truly NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

short time, due notice of which will be

A few days after he called again and said, 81

1t seemed SO incredible that poor ungainly
Yankee lad should be thus loaded with atten-

to think or say.
In short time his strange visitor reappear-

RICH MEN OF CHICAGO AND New YORK.
Chicago has been making list of her wealthy
men. 1t is admitted that Cincinnati has few
men of wealth, and St. Louis, ga town to the
south of u.s." Chicago thinks it necessary to ex-
plain, has several; but Chicago, as usual. cheats
wSf cp 22nasss5n rose. By far the greater ma
iority of Chicagos millionaires are old men
Who came there aoout 1856 or earlier, and
| bought land and sold, and bought again or
| who simply bought land and happily held on
| to it. We find moreover, the admission.
Another characteristic of our wealthy men is
| the evident lack of social attachments. They
were not, as a class, born to kid gloves. Flnan-
| cial acumen has been a gift with them, but the
| finer culture of breeding, and the refinement
| that comes of good society, was not their por-
| ton in early youth, nor have they had time to
attend to such things in the busy whil of money
| making. ~
The two wealthiest citizens said to be W
| B. Ogden, the first mayor of the city, Sl5,o0O,'
| 600 and Cyrus W. Mccormick, $4,000 GOO. -
Then follows the well known names OF La1'n
Farrell and Peck brothers, and some fit others
whose Golfers are supposed to contain from ioul
millions down to ptiful one million.
From Chicago's wealthy citizens We pass tt
those in New York, with glimpse at the heirs
for the New York millonaires and all old men
w. B. Astor heads the list. He is now eighty
| His father put his money in land, land, ano
| still more land. de was always guy inS any
never selling, owned real estate ever vwhere II
the CITY, single houses and solid blocks, i'm
proved and unimproved. Heco commenced wher
New York was not much more than village
and the rise in value has been enormous. VIM
B. Astor has two sons, VIM. B. Astcr, Jr., ant
John Jacob Astor. When he left for Europe
lat-,y his estate was estimated loosely at one
hundred million dollars. This is an exaggera
ton He is worth between forty and fifty mil
lions. Vanderbilt fits across the beard next
carrying from thirty to thirty-fve millions
varying according to the price ofrailroad bonds
None of these men are very admirable in oh ar
aoter; none seem to have many friends, and al
leave the impression of being unhappy-s
many King Midases.

rs Many man is rich without money
Thousands of men with nothing in their pockets
are rich. A man born with good sound con
stitutlon, good stomach, good heart, good
limbs, and pretty good head piece, is rich.-
Good bones are better than gold tough muscles
better than silver and nerves that fash fire
and carry energy to every function are better
than houses or land. 1t is better than landed
estate to have the right kind OF father or mother.
Good breeds and bad breeds exist among men
as really as among herds and horses. E iuca-
ton may do much to check bad tendencies or
to develop good ones; but it is greater thing
10 inherit the right proportion of faculties to
start with. The man is rich who has a good
disposition-who is naturally kind, patient,
cheerful and hopeful.

A PERFECT HoME.-The most perfect home
was a little house into the sweet in
ornse of whose fires went no costly things.
thousand dollars served as a years living of
father, mother, and three children. But the
mother the creator of home; her rela-
tons with her children were the most beautiful
| have ever seen; even the dull and common
place was lifted up and enabled to do good
work for souls by the atmosphere which this
woman created; every inmate of her house in
oluntarily looked in her face for the key note
of the day, and it always rang clear. From the
rosebud or clover leaf, which in spite of her
hard homework, she always found to put by
our plates at breakfast, down to The story she
had on baud to be read in the evening, there
was no intermssion Of her influence. She had
always been and always will be my ideal of a
mother, wife, and home maker. If to h er
quick brain, loving heart, and exquisite face
mad been added the appliance of wealth and
the enlargement of wider culture, hers would
have been absolutely the ideal home. As it
was, it was the best have ever seen.-Helen
Hunt.

LIVE IN LOVE.

Be not harsh and unforgiving,
Live in love, it's pleasant living.
If an angry man should meet thee,
And assail thee indiscretly,
Turn not thou again and rend him,
Lest thou needlessly offend him;
Show him love has been thy teacher
Kindness is potent preacher;
Gentleness is e'er forgiving,
Live in love, tits pleasant living.
Why be angry with each other2
Man was made to love his brother
Kindness is human duty,
Weakness celestial beauty,
Words of Kindness spoke in season,
Have weight with men of reason;
Don't be Others follies blaming,
And their little vices naming;
Charity's cure for railing,
Suffers much, is all prevailing.
Courage, then, and be forgiving;
Live in love, It's pleasant living.
Let thy loving be passion,
Not complimenting fashion
Love is wisdom, ever proving
True philosophy is loving;
Hast thou known that bitter feeling,
'Gendered by our hates concealing
Fetter love, though e'er so blindly,
Fen thy foes will call it kindly.
Words are wind; o, let them never
friendships golden love cord severl'
Nor be angry, though another
Scorn to call thee friend or brother.
Brother" say, ''let's be forgiving,
Live in love, tits pleasant living"

How TIC MAKE 0IL-LAMPs SAFE.-The follop'-
ing communication to the Tribune ought to b.,
fully published everywhere:
"There are great many accidents happen
ing every day from the use of kerosene. | will
tell you method by which they can be to a
great extent prevented, and hope you will
publish it for the benef. Of poor people, who
are obliged to buy cheap oils. If the body OF
the lamp is filed with cotton, such as jewellers
use to lay their articles in, after it is stuffed
lightly, It will still receive one-half the guam
tty of oil which it would hold if the cotton
were not put in. If any accident happens, the
oil cannot spill or flow about, but is, as it were
"sopped up" in the cotton, which burns like a
faggot, but all in one place.
"The other night, as the gas was ex"crabie
as it generally is, lighted a large glass kero-
sene lamp, which had glass 81 be about IN
ches in diameter, holding over pint of oil
This filed with cotton, and found could pour
in nearly pint of oil before it became too wet.
As opened window, 2 cold gust of air came
in, and striking against the not surface of the
glass-at least supposed so-the globe sudden
ly cracked and fell apart, and mass of flame
about as big as your head jumped out upon the
-four and famed out about yard. ] immedi-
ately covered it with the slop bucket as an ex
tinguisher, and with the help of the water
pitcher and some wet towels. had it out in f We
minutes with no damage done. If the lamp
had not had cotton in it, l should not be wri-
ting to you now, unless you can receive COM
munications from the other world"

NSs-A story is told concerning a storm on
Lake Erie, when one of the passengers was be.
moaning the critical state in which the vessel
and its passengers were then placed, and asked
friend If the captain did not think the YES el
was in great peril. The reply was that he
thought they would get through all right il
they could keep out in deep water. "Why,'
said the terrified one, cant we drown just as
well in deep water as we can in shallow
eyes," was the reply, "but then you know il
we keep in deep water. when the vessel rolls
over the masts won't stick fast in the mud on
