ONLY A PIN.
Only Q pinf
And 1t calmly lay
In the shining light
OF q bright MONDAY.
Only 9 boy,
He saw that pin,
And fixed on 1t q look intent
Till boy and pin alike were bent.
Only q chair
II had no business standing there.
The boy he put on q iiendish grin,
And on the seat of that chair he fixed
that pin.
Only 3 yell
But an honest one;
1t lacked all elements Of fun.
And man, and boy, and pin, and chair.
In wild confusion mingled there.

Youth and Age.

The time for action is in our youth.
1t is then that we gather in the
grapes. With freckled faces, sun
burnt hands and bare feet we wander
from vine to vine, from trellis to trel-
lis in the very exhuberance of childish
glee and spirits. In age we quietly
sit in the shade, and while the hours
away in conversation with our friends
while we sip the wine, which is the
better for the long years which have
passed since the vintage. In youth
we should learn wisdom. 1t is thus
we should SOW the seeds which are to
bear fruit for the future We should
be taught that PERUNA is the great
est medicine ever discovered, and that
it has worked some wonderful cures.
There is a book which can be pro-
cured at the drug stores, which tells
you all about this medicine. It is en-
titled the ''Ills of Life" Ask for it,
and read it through, and then buy
PERUNA and you will never re-
gret it. Send to DIR. S. B. Hartman
& Co., Columbus, Ohio, for book on

DIR. HARTMAN-I cannot but feel

your departure from our city, my
thanks for the great benefit l received
from the use of your medicines, Peru

and in week [ was perfectly well.

Catarrh.

The remarkable results in disease
so universal and with such a variety
of characteristics as Catarrh, prove
how effectually Hoods Sarsapailla act
ing through the blood, reaches every
part of the system. A medicine, like
anything else, can be fairly judged
only by its results. We point with
pride to the glorious record Hoods
Sarsaparilla has entered upon the
hearts of thousands of people it has
cured of catarrh.

We do not know whether Blaine
uses strong drink or not. 1t has been
asserted that he does, and it has been
denied. Neal Dow says he lis, and
always has been, supporter of the
Maine law, and has done it good serv-
ice."
Mr.. Logan, it is said, is practical
temperance man, but we do not know
whether he is prohibitionist or not.
Both have views as to the whisky
revenue which are not endorsed by
many prohibitionists, but we must
not be too choicy now. When we
are able to elect Prohibitionist we
will elect one who just suits us in every
respect. Until then we will get more
by being somewhat moderate In our
demands. We have not a working
majority at our command, and we can
get nothing al. all without the aid OF
those who are not yet Prohibitlonlsts.
Is it good sense, or good policy, or
standing up for any principle, to re-
iect Blaine who is prohibitionist,
because he has peculiar notions as to
what ought to be done with the whis-
ky tax, and thereby help a.no-sumpt-
uary personal liberty Democrat who
has nothing in common with Prohi-
bition whatever, to become president
of the United States? Is there no
such thing in this temperance reform
as getting some good at the polls
without waiting until we can get it
all? And must we, in the mean time,
by withdrawing from the real fight,
practically aid that party which the
rum traffic may select whith which to
defeat our prohibition friends In the
old parties. National American.

Onening the Fountains.

In numberless bulbs beneath the
skin is secreted the liquid substance
which gives the hair its texture, color
and gloss. When this secretion stops,
the hair begins at once to become. dry,
lustreless, brittle and gray. Is that
the condition of your hair? If so,
apply Parker's Hair Balsam at once.
1t will restore the color, gloss and life
by renewing the action Of nature.
The Balsam is not an oil, not a dye.
but an elegant toilet article, highly
appreciated because Of its cleanliness.

Roswell P. Flower thinks he is get
ting away with the other Democratic
candidates for the Presidency. But
Roswell will never bloom in the
White House. There is trouble among
Democrats this year. Somehow they
got an idea that there was possibility
of electing Democratic President in
1884, and of course the result is so
many candidates that there will be
enough scattering votes to defeat any
of them. They must find new man
at Chicago.

would the firing of six-inch rihed

AYERS
HairVigOr

restores, with the gloss and freshness of
youth, faded or gray hair to a 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,
though not always, cured.
1t checks falling of the hair, and stimu-
lates a weak and sickly growth to vigor. 1t
prevents and cures scurf and dandruff, and
heals nearly every disease peculiar to the
scalp. AS Ladies' Hair Dressing, the
VIGoR is unequalled it contains neither oil
nor dye, renders the hair soft, glossy, and
silken in appearance, and imparts a delicate,
agreeable, and lasting perfume.
MIR. c. P. BRIcHER writes from Kirby, o.,
July 3, 1882 " Last fall my hair commenced
falling out, out, and in q short time ! became
AYERS HAIR VIGOR, which stopped the fall
ing of the hair, and started new growth. 1
have now a full head of hair growing vigor-
ously, and am convinced that but for the
use of your preparation 1 should have been
entirely bald.''
j. w. BOWEN, proprietor of the McArthur
(Ohio) Enquirer, says LAYERS HAIR VIGoR
is a most excellent preparation for the hair.
speak of it from my own experience. Its
use promotes the growth of new hair, and
makes it glossy and soft. The VIGoR is also
a sure cure for dandruff. Not within my
knowledge has the preparation ever failed
to give entire satisfaction"
MIR. ANGUS FA1RBA1RN, leader of the
celebrated Fairbairn Family" of Scottish
Vocalists, writes from Boston, Mass, Feb. 6,
1880: Ever since my hair began to give sill
very evidence of the change which feeting
time procureth, 1 have used AYERS HAIR
VIGOR, and so have been able to maintain
All appearance of youthfulness- 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., ChdrleSto,oH, Mass, Aprit II, 1882, says:
"Two years ago about two-thirdS of my hair
came off. 1t thinned very rapidly, and l was
fast growing bald. On using AYERS HAIR
VIGoR the falling stopped and a new growth
commenced, and in about a month my head
was completely covered with short hair. 1t
has continued to grow, and is as good as
before it fell. regularly used but one bottle
of the VIGoR, but now use it occasionally as
dressing
We have hundreds of similar testimonials
to the efficacy of AYERS HAIR VIGoR. 1t
needs but a trial to convince the most skepti-
cal of its value.

takes the form of rheumatism, or Or

these is the fact that the State Depart

Arthur to captains of foreign vessels, in
testimony of our governments apprecia-
ton of their gallantry in saving the lives
of American seamen. A few years ago
Geneva watches only would have been
considered good enough for such pur-

amples of human skill in delicate hand
