AYERS CATHARTIc PILLS are the best Of
all purgatives for family use. They are
the product Of long, laborious, and sue
cessful chemical investigation, and their
extensive use, by Physicians 10 their prac-
tice, and by all civilized nations, proves
them the best and most effcctua, purgative
Pill that medical scl-nce Can devise.
Being purely vegetable no harm can arise
from their use. In intrinsic value and
curative pow. rs no other Pills can .be
compared with them and every person,
knowing their virtues, will employ them,
when needed. They keep the system in
perfect order, and maintain in healthy
action the whole machinery oflife. Mild,
searching and effec,ual, they are specially
adapted to the needs. of the digestive an.
psratus, arrangements of which they
prevent and cure, if timely taken. they
are the best and safest physic to employ
fN eehildrer and weakened ons Institutions,
where a mild, but effsctusl, cathartlc is
required.

Prof. Wilson, of England. is the high
est authority on the hair. He condemns
washing Il, and advises, instead, thor
ough brushing. This promotes circu-
lation, removes scurf, and Is, IN all re-
spects, better than water. Cutting the
hair does not, as commonly thought,
promote its growth. Most Of the speci-
fics recommended for badness, not ex-
cepting petroleum, are mere stimulants'
and are seldom or never permanently
successful. Some OF them give rise 70
congestion Of the scalp When stim-
liant Is desirable, ammonia Is the best.
It Il safe. For falling out Of the hair,
DR.. Wilson prescribes lotion composed
OF water Of ammonia, almond oil and
coloroform, one part Of each, diluted
with five parts alcohol, or spirits d
rosemary, the whole made fragrant with
q dram Of oil Of lemon. Dab il on
the skin, after thorough friction with tho
hair-brush. 1t may be used sparingly OF
abundantly, daily or otherwise. For
cooling lyiicn, one made of two drains
OF borax and glycerine to eight ounces
OF Distilled water is effective, allaylnf
dryness, subduing irritability, and re
moving scurf. Both badness and gray
ness depend on defective powers Of tn
scalp skins, and are to be treated alike
What Is needed Is moderate stimulation
without any irritation. The following
is good: Rub into the bare places daily
or even twice day, liriment Of cam
phor. ammonia, chloroform, and aconite

Judge C0thren's Nomination.

JUugt SOiHfth y NoullihLiVH'
Although the Times found no objcc-
ton to Judge Cole M IN independent
candidate sfur his own successor, we
nevertheless hail withlIplensurc the
nomination of Judge NJ. NJ. Cothren
of tho 9TH circuit, ~ the Democratic
standard bearer for the high Office Of
Associate Justice In the place Of Cole.
Our reasons for passiyeness concern
ing Judge Cole, consistedo Of two facts:
ist, that he IL as much Democrat rs
anything, having voted for Mr.. III
den IN lS76.sand I'd, that he Is not OBJ
iectionable as judge, even though
his opinions are not held in very high
esteem. But we do know, MS every
old resident of The State knows, that
Judge CCthren IL one Of the ablcSt
Judges In the State, and whose opin-
IONS, when given from the supreme
bench would be quoted far and near
for their learning one or two such
men, with Chief Justice Ryan, would
place the Supreme Court of WisCon-
sin far ahead Of amy other in the
Union, In point OF Judicial ability.
We dislike Il pmti2an fight over such
IN office, yet brilliant Supreme
Court IL worth lighting tor.--Janes-
vile Daily Times.
We indorse MI that il contained
III the above, but have this to add
Tits not necessary to consider Judge
Cothrens candidacy for the SUI
premc Courta mere purity measure,
Judge Cole acting upon the re-
quest of u fow personal friends,
places himself in the field for II re-
election. This fact originated the
necessity Of some action being TAX
en- to bring before tho people an
other candidate in order that free
dom might exercised by the voter
IN the selection Of n person to fill
that office, INVOLVING as il docs the
highest interests of the people of
The whole State The necessity of
some action was ~ deeply felt by
Republicans and Grconbackcrs as
by Democrats, The calling of a
caucus by the Democratic members
Of the Legislature was rs solicitiously
advocated by leading Republicans
from the western part of the State
as by the members of any other
party. The name Of Judge Cotmcn
was found to bo as tavorably re-
gardod by members of the other
parties ms by Democrats; and in this
way he was unanimously made the
candidate Of all who participated IN
the movement, and Of those who
instigatod its action,
1t is now ~ years since Judge
Cothrcn was first Identified with
The State Judiciary. The slightest
influence of partiaanship in The dis
charge Of official duties has never
been charged against him and we
know Of no man rs little liable to
the charge of partizanship on the
bench as Judge Cothron. With us
he is the peoples candidate, lie Is
one Of the people. lie hrs always
taken II part in carrying forward
and promoting their interests. Per
sonal attention u farming, stock
breeding and mining has familiar.
lied him with the common PURSUITS
OF tie 'ahorlng people of the state.

The True Republican.

The True hepuDllcan.
| A movement is being set on
foot by a large number Of law
yers, and also by many leading
citizens throughout the state to
make Judge M. M. Cothren, of
| Mineral Point, Associate Jus.
tice of the Supreme Court in
place of erasmus Cole, whose
term expires next June. A
caucus was held last Wednes.
day evening by the Democrats
in the Legislature in which a
resolution was passed asking
Mr.. Cothren to become candi
date. lie will accept the nom
ination if such be desired. Mr..
Cothren has always been a
Democrat though he has never
aspired to political honors. He
received last fall the nomination
for Congress by the democrats
in the Third district, but, there
being a third candidate in the
field, he withdrew from the
contest. His legal practice is
large and lucrative, and it is
only when the public, on &C
count Of his great ability and
merit requests it that he accepts
a nomination.
Judge Cole has large mum
Der Of friends in social circles
throughout the state, and isl
popular in the legal profession
inand about Madison; but there
seems to be an impression that
some other man should be
elected for the ensuing term.
This being the case, there is not
Il man in the state better fitted
for the situation than the one
thar is being proposed. Mr..
Cothren has been u resident OF
Wisconsin since its existence rs
u state, and has been identified
largely with its Legislative
growth. His practice in the
supreme Court has been i'm
mense; it has given him n wide
and practical knowledge of law,
and has made him the acknowl |
edged prince Of lawyers in the
southwestern portion of the
state.
The popularity OF Mr.. Cothren
may be illustrated by the fact
that three years ago he was
elected circuit judgein the Fifth
judicial district against w. + |
Carter, the most able an pop |
ular Republican in the dis
trict. Mr.. Cothren is now al
thoroughly temperate man,
and enjoys the unbounded
respect Of a community In
which he has livedfor nearly
forty years. II the Judge is
nominated the people OF the
state could do 10 betterthan
to extend to him their most
earnest support.
