BURNEH'S COCAINE.


Unlike all Other Hair Dressings,
Is the best for promoting the growth of
and identifying the Hair, and render
ing it dark and glossy. The Cocoaine
holds, in Il liquid form, n large proper.
ton of deodorized Cocoanut Oil, pre-
pared expressly for this purpose. No
other compound possesses the peculiar
properties which so exactly suit the
various conditions of the human hair.
The superiority of Burnett's Flavor
ing Extracts consists in their perfect
purity and great strength.

Hints from an Experienced Physician.

Two good hearty meals in the day are
sufficient for health-one before going to
work, and the other after work is over;
that is breakfast and supper, or what j.
the same, late dinner. Some lunch is
needed between these meals, but this
should be light. A heavy meal in the
middle of the day may suit children, but
if hard work has to be resumed, it inter-
feres with the work, and the work with
digestion. Hot, heavy suppers taken
shortly before going to bed prevent re-
freshing sleep, and are among the most
frequent causes of attacks of indigestion.
At the same time an empty stomach is
to be avoided; few biscuits, or some
thing equally light, is all that is required.
Variety of diet is of Importance to
health; the stomach gets weary of a re-
petition of the same every day. Hurry
at meals is to be avoided-eat slow and
chew well. Bodily toll and manual
labor can be best supported by a rege-
table diet, as bread, porridge, etc,
with the addition of milk, eggs, butter
and cheese; meat is much inferior to
these as supplier of strength.
But it is very different with mental
labor; here mixed diet, with ami
NAL food in moderation, is hest.
The practice of drinking stimulants as
aids to work is a serious mistake; it
checks the desire for wholesome food,
leads to excess, and sooner or later in
lures the health. Tobacco should not
be smoked just Immediately before or
after meals, as it weakens digestion. Too
much smoking is harmful habit, caus-
ing nervousness, shaky hands, palpita-
ton of the heart, want of appetite and
sleeplessness; when any of these occur,
tobacco should be left off, or used very
seldom. The practice of boys learning
to smoke cannot be too strongly con-
demned. They think it manly, while
they are really injuring the health and
growth, so preventing themselves from
becoming manly. Excessive tea drink
ing is an evil not unusual among working
women, producing i'll nourished mothers
and weakly babies. Tea should not be
taken more than once or twice day,
and should never take the place of sub
stantial meal. Health depends gr-atly
on good cooking; the object of cooking
is to render food digestible and ATTRACTIVE,
and to give at the same time the greatest
amount of nourishment with the least
amount of waste. Every opportunity of
learning and improving in this art should
be eagerly sought.

The entry books are now open, and the
clerks at headquarters were busily engaged in
entering up and classifying the great number
OF applications previously received. From
the number and quality OF those already re-
ceived 1t is a very good indication that the ex-

only remains now for the management to stir
up and enthuse the people to such an extent
that the multitude who attend will be equally
as great in proportion as the exhibit Will evil

How many ladies want G. w. Strope's fine

sending in their names to be entered in the
five-mile amateur ladies' riding race.
Who will take the lady's handsome easy
chair, offered by Abeynathy, North & OrrisOn
for the best lady driver!
Who will get that ebony parlor desk offered
by the Keith Furniture and Carpet Company
for the best lady horseback rider!
Send in your names, ladies; the books are

For the benefit of those who visit the Expo

it might be well to observe the following:
On arrival at Kansas City will proceed d.

cars, hacks and buses will be constantly rum

prehensiye display, in itself worth the price OF
admission, an opportunity to visit the great
establishments and points OF interest in the
city may be had before proceeding to the Fair

Horned Boosters.

The article in yesterdays Post con-
corning a California "horned rooster "
created some discussion in both scientific
and curious circles. A well-known resi-
dent of Washington, meeting Post re-
porter last night, sid to him: " That ar
ticle recalls to my mind that more than
thirty years ago, when l resided in
Winchester, Va, where my father then
conducted the Winchester Republican,
there also resided an ingenious, intelli-
gent, highly esteemed citizen, promi-
nent. merchant tailor, named George
Aulie,s of the United States navy, who
had in his possessions, of his own manu-
facture, a bona fida living horned rooster,
and, so far from it being lusus nature,
it was no more or less than an artificial
home production, and one that any
skillful person familiar with budding or
grating trees or plants can produce al
most ad infinitum."
care you joking?" inquired the Post.
Not bit of it," was the straight
forward answer. "The process is some
what as follows: Take any healthy fowl
of the chicken kind, from five months
to one year old, male or female, having a
well developed comb; then selecting a
young, growing rooster of like condi-
tions and age, whose spurs are about an
eighth of an inch long, or just well and
prominently enough developed to show
the spur; have at hand suitable, keen
pen-knife or lancet, then make a proper
incision Tor slightly scoop OUT on the
top or on either side of the comb or car
buncle of the fowl; next skillfully de-
tach from another fowl the bud-like
spur, taking along with it small por-
tion. of the fieshy part; quickly insert
the bud into the incision or scooped out
place on. the comb, grease the part with
lard or suet, without wiping off the
blood; carefully, lightly and properly
bandage, or cover with suitable piece
of adhesive plaster, in such way as to
prevent the bud being detached by the
scratching of the fowl. In due time,
say three or four days, if sufficiently
healed the bandage can be, taken off,
when in the course of a few months a
fully developed and permanently at
tached spur, or so-called horn, will be
the result"
"Your explanation is ingenious" said
the reporter, "but it certainly sounds
strange"
"My explanation shows nothing more
or less than the transplanting or en-.
grating process, which modern science
has often demonstrated as applicable to
the human being. And, in this connec.
ton, it is suggested that a cat or dog,
indeed almost any animal, may be or.
namented with an engrafted headpiece,
and the human forehead divine, or the
olfactory appendage be made the
"garden spots" for various elongated
attachments. Perhaps after awhile some
enterprising Yankee will undertake to
supply the future Barnums and Fore.
paughs with new subjects in natural and
artificial history, whose forms and shapes
will be limited only by the imagination. "

Fast Time on a Bicycle.

The past fortnight has been one of the
greatest interest and excitem INT in
bicycling circles. Perhaps the most
interesting incident has been the reap
pearance of the most popular rider ever
known, the Hon. Ion Keith Falconer.
This gentleman has been absent from
England some years, studying Arabic
and Persian in the East, and contracting
fevers in Egypt During his absence
various unsuccessful attempts have been
made to surpass the brilliant two miles
record which he left behind him. Max
ing a little pleasure trip, in the vilest
weather, from Lands End to John
o'Groat's, a distance of nearly 1000
miles, by way of preliminary breather, he
competed first of all in the five miles
championship, but had to be content with
second place to J. s. Whatton, the
Oxford Blue. On Saturday last he,
however, was enabled to bring his
wonderful stamina into use, and won the
fifty miles championship with tolerable
ease, after some magnificent racing. His
time, 2 hours 43 minutes 80 Is seconds,
is far and away the best for the distance,
as it well may be.
The other bicycling wonder, Fl. l..
Cortis, has at length succeeded in ac-
complishing, at the third attempt (the
first cost him broken army, the feat of
covering twenty miles within the hour;
but at the same time, in the same con-
test, another Oxford Blue, W. X. Adam,
placed the three miles record to his credit,
his time being eight minutes forty-one
and one-fifth seconds. These perform
ances are all wonderfully good; but the
recent calm weather has been greatly in
favor of fast time.-LOnd0ss World.
