Every year increases the popularity
of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We can
assure our old patrons that it is kept
fully up to its high standard; and it
is the only reliable and perfected prep
aration for restoring GRAY OR FADED
HAIR to its youthful color, making it
soft, lustrous, and silken. The scalp,
by its use, becomes white and clean.
1t removes all eruptions and dandruff
and, by its tonic properties, prevents
the hair from falling out, as it stimu-
lates and nourishes the hair-glands.
BY its use, the hair grows thicker and
stronger. In badness, it restores the
capillary glands to their normal vigor,
and will create a new growth, except
in extreme old age. 1t is the most
economical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications, and
gives the hair a splendid, glossy ap-
pearance. A. A. Hayes, MD, State
Assayer of Massachusetts,, says, "The
constituents are pure, and carefully
selected for excellent quality; and l
consider it the BEST PREPAsA7ToN
for its intended purposes"
Sold By all Druggists, and Dealers in Medicines.
Price One Dollar.

is easily applied, and produces a color
which will neither rub nor wash off.

AWFUL CALAMITY.

Last Thursday night Catholic church
at Holyoke, Massachusetts,, was burned
and about seventy five persons perished
The building was made of pine, was 100
feet long and 60 wide, and two stories
high The drapery around the image of
the Virgin Mary took fire, and the dry
pine lumber of which the building was
constructed wass soon mass of roaring
flame. The people rushed for the two
small doors, and as is nearly always the
case, soon blocked up and effectually
closed the doors. They lay piled upon
each other eight feet high. The details
are absolutely sickening. Some jumped
from the upper windows, and part of
them thus escaped, while others were
killed, and some terribly mangled. Some
forty or fifty were more or less injured
in addition to those already dead.

CANDIDATES.

It will be seen that the time for hold
ing the Republican County Convention
is fixed for July 17th. We do not know
whether there will be any candidates for
Office or not. There has been no disposi-
ton manifested this year any place by
Republicans to seek Office. If there
should be any candidates, who want the
people to know that fact, they can make
it known in the STANDARD for the small
sum of two dollars, an adUance. No use to
send your name without sending the two
dollars. We have quit publishing pa
per for the public good-for the sole
purpose of aiding men to get Office. We
now publish a paper to make money.
This is the fact of the matter, and we
deem it frank and honest to say so. We
ask no man to announce himself. If he
should think it would pay to let all the
people know, he can have the opportunity
for his money. 1t is purely business
transaction. There is no benevolence or
charity in the matter, so far as we are
concerned.
Democrats who want Office can find no
better medium than the STANDARD in
which to make their announcement. No
extra charge for Democratic or colored
candidates.

other day Of pleasure and true enjoy

lines, from the last number of Hearth
and Home:
o beautiful woodlands! oft in my dreams

And daisies nod low to the breeze:
While sweetly the mocking bird trilis me a tune
In the beautiful woodlands of glorious June

L sigh for the fragrance of flowers;
My heart leaps with joy-I am free II am freei
beautiful woodlands! fiy unto thee.
Under the naples lie;
Inc voices OF children ring out on the air
The brooks babble merrily by.
Never was music so pleasant to me
As voices of children, of bird and of bee
High up on the cliffs wild rose elings
SO temphngly, blushing fair,
1hat Wine has laughed at the danger and
garland for ClarfbeI's hair.

One day last week scaffold at the
Central Ohio Lunatic Asylum at Colum-
bus fell, while the men were raising one
of the trusses for the roof, and several
men were thrown to the ground, dis
tance of IS feet. Three of them were
killed Their names are Albert Gotleib,
George Bowers and Jerry Ryan. Two
more were so injured that it is thought
they will die The man who saw the
scaffold giving way, jumped upon the top
of wall twenty feet on one side, and
thirty feet below him, and thus escaped.
1t was one of the most fearful and sue
oessful leaps upon record, and it may be
regarded as almost miraculous that he
thus saved his life and escaped injury.

The Best Evidence.

The following letter from Rev. E. S. BEST,
pastor M. E. Church, Natick, Mass, will be read
with interest by many physicians. Also those
suffering from the same disease afflicted the
son of the Rev. E. S. Best. No person can doubt
this testimony, and there is no doubt about the
curative powers of VEGETINE:
NATICK, Mass, Jan. l, 1874
MIR. 81. R. STEVENS:
Dear Sir-We have good reason for regarding
your VEGETINE a medicine of the greatest
value. We feel assured that it has been the
means of saving our sons life. He is now sew
enteen years of age; for the last two years he
has suffered from necrosis of his leg, caused by
ScrofulouS affection, and was SO far reduced that
nearly all who saw him thought his recovery
impossible. A council of able physicians could
give us but the faintest hope of his ever rally
ing, two of the number declaring that he was
beyond the reach of human remedies, that even
amputation could not save him, as he had not
vigor enough to endure the operation. Just
then we commenced giving him VEGETINE,
and from that time to the present he has been
continuously improving. He has lately resum-
ed his studies, thrown away crutcheS and cane
and walks about cheerfully and strong.
Though there is still some discharge from the
opening where the limb was lanced, we have
the fullest confidence that in a little time he
will be perfectly cured.
He has taken about three dozen bottles of
VEGETINE but lately uses but little, as he de-
clareS that he is too well to be taking medicine.
Respectfully yours,
E. S. BEST,
Mrs. l.. c. +. BEST.
