AYERS
Hair Vigor

restores, with the gloss and freshness OF
youth, faded or gray hair TO natural, rich
brown color, or deep black, as may be desired
BY its use light or red hair may be darkened,
thin hair thickened, and badness often,
slough not always, cured.
1t checks falling of the hair, and sffmu-
iates a weak and sickiy growth to yigor. 1t
prevents and cures seurf and dandFuff, and
heals nearly every disease peculiar to the
scalp. As Ladies' Hair Dressing, the
yIGoR is unequalled; it contains neither Oil
nor dye, renders the hair soft, glossy, and
silken in appearance, and ir.parts a delicate,
agreeable, and lasting perfume.
MIR. G. p. BRIGHTER writes from Kirby, o.,
July 3, lss2 g Last fall my hair commenced
falling out, and in a short time | became
nearly bald. l used part of q bottle Of
Ayers HAIR YIGoR, which stopped the fall
ing OF the hair, and started new growth. l
have now full head of hair growing vigor-
ously, and am convinced that but for the
use OF your preparation l should have been
entirely bald
JW. BOWEN, proprietor of the McArthar
lOhio) Enquirer says layers HAIR VIooR
is q most excellent preparation for the hair.
/ speak of il from my own experience. It's
makes 1t glossy and soft. The VIGoR is also
a sure cure for dandruf. Not within my
knowledge has the preparation ever failed
to give entire satisfaction"
MR.. ANGUS FAIRBAIRN, leader of the
celebrated " Fairbairn Family" of Scottish
Voealists, writes from Boston, Mass, FEB. 8,
1880 Ever since my hair began TO give sill
very evidence Of the change which heeting
time procureth, have used AYERS HAIR
VIGoR, and so have been able to maintain
an appearance of youthfuiness "a matter of
considerable consequence to ministers, ora
tors, actors, and in fact every one who lives
in the eyes OF the public"
MRS. O. A. PRESCOTT, writing from Is Elm,
ST., CharlestoicH, Mass, Aprit Il 1882, says
1.-TWO years ago about two-thirds of my hair
came off. 1t thinned very rapidly, and was
fast growing bald. On using AYERS HAIR
VIGoR the falling stopped and a new growth
commenced, and in about month my head
was completely covered with short hair. 1t
has continued to grow, and is now as good as
before 1t fell. / regularly used bat one bottle
of the YIGoR, but now use it occasionally as
dressing"
We have hundreds of similar testimonials
to the efficacy of AYERS HAIR yIGoR. 1t
needs but trial to convince the most skepti-
cal of its value.

A BRIDGE 81 MILES LONG.
Fhe Wonderful TrestIe from shore to shore
Across Lake PontcIartrain.


On Sunday party, composed mainly of
railroad officials and contractors interested
in the building of the New Orleans and
Northeastern Railroad took trip across
Lake Pontchartrain for the purpose of ex-
aiming the great trestlework now in course
of construction. The entire length of the
trestlework when completed will be twenty.
one and a half miles. This distance com.
crises thirteen and half miles from People
Avenue Canal to the Point, five and three
quarter miles across the lake and two and
four-tenths miles from the north shore. All
of the piling along the southern shore, with
the exception Of about one mile has been
driven and this division will be completed
by July l. OF the piling in the lake two
and quarter miles have been driven and
one mile of the work is completed. The
trestle on the north shore has been finished

or to Pearl river The trestle work is all
constructed after the same plan, except that
the cross. ties are further apart in the APP
proaches than in the bridge proper and that
the timber used on the latter is all creosoted
The description of the bridge will answer
for the other.
This structure which probably will be the
longest of the kind in the United States, will
also be one of the most substantial Experts
in railroad building pronounce the section,

of trestle construction they have seen
The piles average sixty feet in length ant
are driven about forty feet. In each ben,
thare are four piles and the bents are fifteen
feet apart The caps of the piles are II by
IA inches, and the stringers are six by six

inches apart, and on them arebolted stringers
which act as guard rails. The ties form

which the wheels of car could run without
danger of leaving the bridge on account OF
the guard rails.
The trestlework from beginning to end,
Is one of the grandest undertakings connected
with railroad building in the South. Some
idea of its magnitude may be formed from
the statement that the quantity of lumber re-
quired, outside of the piles, is over 10000.

THE NEW PATENT
EbUSvN NJ PROOF
STEM WINDING,
OPEN FACE CASE,
MANUFACTURED BY THE
AMERICAN WATCH CO.,
WATnITANr MACE


This case is formed in one solid piece
without joint or seam, opening in front
only, thus avoiding the usual Cap, and
securing greater strength and durability
These Watches are all open face. The
bezel, into which an extra strong crystal
is fitted with an especially prepared
waterproof cement is attached TO the
case by screwing it thereon, and thus
forms an air-tight junction with the body
of the case, which is proof against dust
and moisture.
To railroad men, travellers. miners,
lumbermen and others who are almost
constantly exposed and who have to make
frequent reference to the watch, these
qualities are Of the utmost Importance.

MAKING SUGAR.

The cane-stalks, from four to eight feet
long, cut and stripped of their leaves, are
brought to the mill. Then, strewn on
broad belt, working on the principle of an
endless chain, they are passed between three
great rollers laid very close together and
worked by steam. Thence the thin watery
fluid, very sweet to the taste and yellowish
in hue, passes to succession of boiling.
pans or round caldrons, when it is boiled
down by slow degrees, until the crystalliza
ton point is reached, much the same as is
done with the maple sap of our country.
When the last boiling act is ended the pro.
duct is mass of crystallized sugar, soaking
In inolasses. To get rid of the molasses,
the old plan, and the one still adopted Oh
unimproved Cuban estates, is to pour the
mixture into hogsheads and let the syrup
drain off for several weeks through the
cracks. This produces the Muscovado
sugar, an article inferior in saccharint
strength to the centrifugal" product To

mixture is placed in huge perforated cylin.

sugar has burnt brown tint, and tastes

Song.

The girl sat under the beetling Cliff,
Oh, the sweet singing out OF the sea!
She watched the white sails OF the dancing akin
she watched as 1t tackled and made the land,
she watched the sharp keel run on the sand
And she thought, HE is comingto me- to me
AS the sailor sprang from the gay boats Side
AS lt lay In the lap OF the ebbing tide.
Oh, the sweet singing out OF the seal
The two sat under the great rocks shade.
On, the sweet singing out of the sea,
They saw the sunset glow and fade;
Ihey heard the low waves ceaseleSs chime
TO The vows that Knocked at change and time.
As he swore by the Steadrast tides to be
true and tender, through veal and woe,
And she blushed 10 the kiss he hailowed so:
Oh, the sweet singing out of the sea!
The girl sat under the Cliff alone.
Oh, the sad singing OF the sea
And The winds low Sob and the waves, low moan
Blent with the passionate weeping for him
Whose falSehOod had made the fpir world dim:
And she sighed, "What has life left yet for me
Whose JOY is blighted, whose trust is fed,
whose hope, like the rose. its leaves has Shed9n
U, the sad singing out OF the seal
The great sea heard, as under the shade
Oh the sweet singing out OF the seal
It's mooniit rippleS soft music made,
And 1t sang, 1.-The world with its Smiles and
tears,
Changes for aye with the changing years:
Come moGrner, for rest and peace to me-
Take the lesson give through time and TIDE,
Do thy duty, nor reck OF aught bestie;"

The Two Fleets,

The SUE was bright and the sea was bland
And the tide danced In as merrlly,
When sailor pushed his boat from the sand:
And the waves kept time with his homaly glee.
For the sailor hummed, ''Two fleets there be:
And one sails over the sun-lt waves,
And one lies under the Somber sea"
The sea was bland and the sun was bright,
And fayoring wind blew fresh and free,
Ana the ieSs'nfDg Sail disappeared from sight:
But the odd refrain still remained with me
winch the sailor Sang-"TwO fleets there be:
ana one sails over the sun-lit waves,
And one lies under the SOmber sea-"
The tide danced out with the freight 1t bore:
All. the tide came back soon smilngly,
But the sailors boat never touched the shore:
And sing to myself, for cannot fee
from The haunting strain, 1.-TWO fleets there be
And one sails over the sun-lit waves,
And one lies under the Somber sea.
So one by one from the shining world
The neet sails down to the dismal lee
TO the fleet where every sail Is furled;
And my heart keeps time to the mystic key
While drift and sing, "Two fleets there be-:
And one sails over the sun-lit waves
And one lies under the Somber sea-
SO little while and he who sings
Shall hum no more his songs TO thee;
so they who watch his Sun-lit wings
snail hear, perchance when they cannot see
The lips which sing, "Two fleets there be:
Ana one sails over the sun lit waves,
And one lies under the SOmber sea ~

The wolf pour'd his howl OF despair;
And stricken and weary trod,
Scarce daring TO gaze into space,
