Thin hair is thickened, falling hair
checked, and badness often, though
not always, cured by its use. Moth
ing can restore the hair where the
follicles are destroyed, or the glands
atrophied and decayed. But such as
remain can be saved for usefulness
by this application. Instead of foul
ing the hair with pasty sediment, it
will keep it clean and vigorous. Its
occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling of, and
consequently prevent badness. Free
from those deleterious substances
which make some preparations dam
gerous, and injurious to the hair, the
Vigor can only benefit but not harm
it. IF wanted merely for a

believing it is the best hedge plant yet

MANY varieties of grapevines are liza
bic to overbear, especially when the soil
is not rich, giving the roots poor chance
to extend, owing to its hardness; and in
such cases, if large quantity of fruit
sets, it is better to remove a portion of it
when very small. Take pair of scissors
in June and clip out from one-third to
one-half of the smallest clusters, and
what is left will be worth double what

ripeness not otherwise attainable. The
hay also serves as mulch for the trees
and keeps the weeds down. Mr.. Pitt

Spalatzo, in the Austrian province of
Dalmatia, was few weeks ago the scene
of amostextraordinary tragedy. Oppo-
site the Parish church lived a
householder named Tonic, who
becoming suddenly prey to mad rage,
killed his wife and then his father, who
had attempted to restrain him. When
the police came they found that Tonic
had everywhere efectually barred an
entry and taken up a commanding posi-.
ton with musket and plenty of ammu.
milton. They were, therefore, compelled
to turn back, and meanwhile Tonic put
bullet through a young man who
crossed the street, and severely wounded
woman. The police then drew a cor
don around the house, but Tomic's mus
ket commanded the space between his
house, the church, and the top of the
adjacent streets, and no one dared cross
the street or approach the body of the
young man. Atlength clergyman who
had great influence with Tonic bravely
went forward and implored him to give
up to his care his little child. The faith
er's answer to this appeal was by throw
ing out her limbs one by onel Then he
resumed his fnsilade. The authorities
would not allow the police to fire, mas
much as they deemed the man bereft of
reason. So the only course was to con-
tinue the blockade. All sorts of devices
were suggested. Some were for firing on
Tonic with supplying cartridges, Others
for concentrating the fre-engine force on
the house, and all this time the unhappy
sexton of the parish was sending IN
from the bell tower a wall for food he
having gone up to ring the bell Just be-
fore the tragedy began, and his only
mode of egress being in front of the
maniac's window. After the blockade
had lasted two days and Tonic showed
no signs of giving in, it was resolved to
keep up perfect hailstorm of stones at
all the windows of the house while the
door was forced. The mailman flew to
the garrett, where it was 10 easy matter
to disarm without killing him. Alto.
gether, he had killed four, and wounded
five.

ARABIAN, the village which the Rus.
slams have captured, was formerly town
of about three hundred houses, but be.
ing destroyed by the Russians in 1866,
1t now contains smaller population.
1t is situated southeast of Batoum
about two-thirds of the distance from
that place to the eastern frontier, and
near the northern frontier. The houses
are mostly under ground, method of
construction adopted on account of the
severity of the climate. Arabian is a
kaza of Olta, and seat of a mudir. At
the time of its capture the e, tress was
dismantled by the Russians and the guns
taken away. 1t was, however, refortified
by the Turks, and being commanded by
neighboring heights was strong posi-
ton.

This section of Roumania between
Bucharest and Jassy, on the line of this
hideously constructed single track rail
route, is very populous. We stopped
every few minutes at villages OF five
thousand, two thousand, or ten thousand
inhabitants. But what villagesl Verify !
the Russians will do well to begin elevat-
ing the Roumanians before they under
take their sublime mission of raising the
Bulgarians out OF the depths into which
they have been thrust by the barbarous
Turk. There seems no independent
thought, no sense of energy among these
binds. They are abased yet there is in
them the material of noble men. 1t is
simply their ignorance which crushes
them to the very earth. | was struck,
in passing long procession of water
carts on the Chaussee, the principal
promenade Of Bucharest, with the de-
graded types of the men driving the
scrubby little horses. These men were
not abused by vice or drink they were
simply rustic clowns, completely devoid
of any knowledge of the outer world, of
their own, or the country's destines-
good only to eat and sleep, and do their
dull round of daily work.
The villages generally consist of long
rows, interspersed here and there with ir
regular groupings of one-story matched
cottages, the doors and windows in which
are of the most primitive character
Some OF these huts are whitewashed out
side, like the shanty of an Irish laborer
in America, and the window and door
frames are painted blue; but the moss
are undecorated and dirty in appearance.
The mud wasso deep in some of the village
streets that the, villagers were picking
their way with stats, trying quagmire
before they ventured to walk through
it, as they came down to the stations to
"see the train" Just above Pascani
saw village the main part OF which
was composed of rows of huts built
around three sides of square. In this
square there was not blade of grass nor
a tree, nor any attempt at garden !;
there were no walks, no Pavements; one
dead level of stagnant mud stretched
from the door of one peasant to the door
of another peasant. In these huts, look
ing out upon this inspiring prospect,
stood the peasants with their wooden
caps drawn down to their very eyes,
their long hair hanging in ringlets over
their backs, and their immense mus
taches permeated with the smoke. from
their pipes and cigarettes. The women
were so smothered in sheepskin cloaks
made in ungraeious form, that the poor
creatures appeared precisely as if they
had borrowed their husbands overcoats
that it was impossible IL Judge 7ghether
or not they were pretty. Many of them
wear huge boots, which are, of course,
highly necessary in this muddy weather,
and to see them tramping across the
fields, one isentirely at loss as to which
sex they represent. The beauty of the
Roumanian woman has been highly
praised in song and story. Perhaps un-
der these humble thatched-roofs, and in
the midst of these muddy fields, fair
creatures are born, but it hardly seems
possible.
