the old story over again; the white

during the past summer have mani.

Government has been trying to make

have many able statesmen, that are
well Informed in the past treatise OF

among the red men as gathered
from their speeches, is that they have

Hair Vigor,
For restoring to Gray Hair its

hair is thiekened, 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 DO
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that a xow
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 off, 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 I'M
clearly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and iniu-
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 o grateful perfume.

The Cincinnati Exposition.

The Cincinnati Industrial Exposi-
ton still maintains its national reputa-
ton as the Grand Industrial Exposi-
ton of America. It is representative
in the fullest sense, subscribing no pri-
vate interest or profit. 1t has no stock
holders, being supported by public
guarantee fund of a quarter of mil
lion dollars, and deYotes its whole
revenues to the full development ofthe
enterprise, and the advancement of
national Industries. The Sixth Ex-
position will open Wednesday Sept
9Th, and cOntinne until Saturday Oct.
9th. Every effort has been made to
insure its success. The most complete
arrangements have been made for re-
duced rates of fare, and all interested
or proposing TO attend will receive a
circular contai ming the rates of trans
portation, and the prices of the differ
ent Hotels and Restaurants, by ad-
dressing the Secretary. In connection
with this subject, we are pleased to say
that the Hotels and Restaurants have
pledged themselves to charge only the
usual rates during the Exposition.
This Exposition is now in such a
forward state of completion, that up
on the hour of opening, P. NJ, Sept.
Sth, it will present more finished ap-
pearance than at any previous open
ing day. The opening ceremonies
preceded by the grandest Trades Pro
cession ever witnessed in the United
States. Machines, Manufactures and
Products are rapidly arriving from all
parts of the United States, and occu-
pying the assigned positions Through
the exertions of the Art Committee,
and the generous response of the ow-
ners Of celebrated paintings and en-
cravings, the choicest gems of art
never before publicly exhibited have
been secured, and taking their places
in the Art Hall of the Exposition.
The grand Floral Hall, which has
been in the hands of the commission
ers of this department and expert dec
orators for months, has now it's grot-
bridges, ETC., in an absolute state of
completion, including the vines, small
plants, and flowers used to decorate
the rock work. It's beauty far exceed!
that of any previous year, and when
the exhibitors plants are in position,
Sept 7th, this Hall alone will attract
visitors from all parts of the United
States. The managers are unable to
accommodate all the machinery offer
ed this year, and the power Hail al
ways the busy center of attraction), i

The New York World is touched by
the news from Ohio, and states point
as follows:
Those who know that hard money
is the fundamental article of the polit-
ical creed of our German citizens will
not be surprised at the action Mr.. Has
sarek; has taken, and which the Illinois
Staats -Zeitung gives warning it will
take upon provocation. Mr.. Hassaur-
elk, the editor of the Cincinnati Volks-
blatt, and the recognized leader of the
Germans of Ohio, to whose efforts
was due in no small measure the sweep
ing Democratic victory of 1874, de-
clares that he will vote for Mr. Hayes,
the Republican candidate, to show his
detestation of rag money. The Stats,
Zeitung announces that if there are in
1876 a Republican hard money candi
date it will support the former, but
that if both parties adopt sound plat
forms it will oppose Radicalism."

Getting Rid OfHer Daughters
Beau. @

She lives down on Baker street, and
she has a daughter about eighteen
years cid. The old lady retained all
her simplicity and innocence, and she
doesn't go two cents on style. The
other evening when a splendid catch
called to escort the daughter to the
opera the mother wouldn't take the
hint to keep still. While helping her
daughter get ready she asked:
"Mary are you going to wear the
shoes with one heel off, or the pair
with holes in 'em ?''
Mary didn't seem to hear, and the
mother inquired;
care you going to wear that dollar
gold chain and that washed lecket, or
will you wear the diamond father
bought you at the hardware store ?''
Mary WINGED at her, and the young
man blushed, but the old lady went
on:
care you going to borrow Mrs.
Browns shawl, or will you wear mine p
Mary hustled around the room, and
the mother said:
:'Be careful Of your dress, Mary,
you know it's the only one you've got,
and you can't have another till the
mortgage on the place is lifted
Mary remarked to her escort that il
promised to be beautiful evening,
and as she buttoned on her gloves hel
mother remarked:
"Those are Mrs. Hardy's gloves
amt they? She's been good neigh
Dor to us, and don't know how you'G
manage to go anywhere if she didn'
live near u.s."
Mary was hurrying to get out of the
room, when the mother raised hel
voice once more and asked:
did you run in to Mrs. Jewett'I
and borrow her bracelet and fan Ye.
I see you did. Well, now you loob
real stylish, and hope you'll have 6
) good time"
Mary sits by her window in the pal
moonlight and sighs for the splendit
young man to come and beau he

Mark Twain, they say, is lending
money at sixteen per cent. Twain was
formerly a popular humorist, but he
got rich in one way and another, and
ceased to be funny. A man can not
be thrifty and humorist, too. Arte-
mus Ward died just in the nick of time
just as people were beginning to ap-
preciate the music that was in him,
and pay him for making it. Mark
Twain might have kept up his reputa-
ton as humOrist if he had died two
years ago, but it is too late now. 1t
will not help him to die.
