gloss and freshness Of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, 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 be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, SO that new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with a 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-
tion of dandruff, which is often so un-
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
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 a rich, glossy
lustre, and a grateful perfume.

control them. The testimony of our best cit-
Zens, of all classes, establishes the fact, that
CHERRY PECToRAL will and does relieve and
cure the affecting disorders of the Throat and
Lungs beyond any other medicine. The most
dangerous affections of the Pulmonary Organs
yield to its power; and cases of Consumption,
cured by this preparation, are publicly known,
so remarkable as hardly to be believed, were
they not proven beyond dispute. As remedy,
it is adequate, on which the public may rely
for full protection. By curing Coughs, the
forerunners of more serious disease, it saves un-
numbered lives, and an amount of suffering not
to be computed. 1t challenges trial, and con-
vinces the most sceptical. Every family should
keep it on hand rs protection against the early
and unperceived attack of Pulmonary Alice
tions, which are easily met at first, but which
become incurable, and too often fatal, if neg
lected. Tender lungs need this defence; and it
is unwise to be without it. As 4 safeguard to
children, amid the distressing diseases which
beset the Throat and Chest of childhood, CHERRY
PICTORIAL is Invaluable: for, by its timely use,
multitudes are rescued from premature graves
and saved TO the love and affection centred on
them. 1t acts speedily and surely against orii-
nary colds, securing sound and health-restorng
enZa and painful Bronchitis, when they know
how easily they can be cured.
Originally the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, no cost or toll
is spared in making every bottle in the utmost
possible perfection. 1t may be confidently relied
upon rs possessing all the virtues it has
exhibited, and capable of producing cures

Prismoidal Railroad.

We witnessed. the test of this new
invention near the new depot yester-
day, rode on the car and pronounce it
a success on straight line. The con-
structor made mistake in not making
a curve on his experimental track, to
show that it will turn q sharp curve.
Everything else is all right. 1t is
cheap and easily constructed. Vehi-
cles can cross it much easier than they
can cross double track. 1t is of
lighter draft and capable of bearing q
heavy burden. But if it can be dem
onstrated that it will turn sharp
curve it is our opinion that the great
est advantage of the invention will be
for steam cars to. run through our
mountainous country to the seaside
valleys TO bring the produce, the wood,
the coal, etc., from regions where it
would be impracticable to build even
narrow-gauge railroad. This road can
be run almost anywhere that donkey
can travel, and the grading would cost
but little more than foot-path. But
it all depends upon its ability to turn
a curve. Of course the parties inter-
ested will have that tested before they
proceed to any considerable expense.

Council and who never misses an OPP
portunity to rain vituperative invec-
tive upon it, fought the passage of the
ordinance as then before the Council,
apparently on its injustice and general
informality. And finally, If there is
nothing but good contained in the or
dinance, why the indecent haste to
secure its passage? Good things will
keep, and if there is no spring gun
concealed beneath the specious word
ing Of the document, why not wait
until the facts are brought out and the
subject discussed pro and con. There
is no reason for haste, as the railroad
depot is not yet finished and the thou
sands of men and women will not be
subjected to the dust and danger which
ga Citizen' 80 much breads for some
time. Let us start fair and continue
on that line if we do not make quite so
much money.

The Ground and the Ordinance.

Yesterday afternoon we visited
San Fernando street and examined
the ground over which the Main and
Spring Street Railway are asking of
the Council permission to lay down a
track over which to run their cars.
The company ask to- cross the rail-
road track and run their road through
the centre, or nearly the centre, of the
street to within about 100 feet of the
West end of the depot building, which
is objected to by citizens using that
street as means of coming into and
going out of the city. The ordinance
which the Council is asked to pass
give the street railway company the
right to extend their track to point
opposite the depot building, where the
unoccupied portion of the street is so
narrow that if a street railroad track
were laid in it it would be almost inn
possible for teams to pass on either side
at times when the track was occupied
by the cars. To this the people resid-
ing In the Eastern part of the city very
properly object. Something has been
said about there being no substantial
difference between the original ordi-
nance and the modification as it now
stands. We find on examination that
there really was no material differ
ence. In the original document these
words, written in ink, are enclosed in
lead pencil brackets: "Thence along
said street to point opposite the new
depot of the Southern Pacific Railroad
Company" On the margin of the
sheet is written in pencil these words:
"Thence along the East side of San
Fernando street to point opposite to
and half way between the two switch
ed lines of the S. P. r. r. Co." We
do not say that any one contemplated
doing it, but the ease with which the
brackets and side note might have
been erased, suggested the thought
expressed the other day that the mod
itied ordinance would prove to be about
the same as the original.
