j.. W. HAMMOND, Lake Preston, d. T.,
when he was but 40 years old found his
whiskers were entirely white. So they
continued until he reached so years of age,
when he began using Ayers HAIR
VIGoR, three bottles of which suffieed to
restore their original rich, dark brown
color.
Mrs. AUGUST VALENTINE, of BafaIo,
IN. ", had become nearly bald, and
though she made use of many of the so
called hair restorers, none had any effect.
AYERS HAIR VIGoR did what nothing
else could do, and now the lady again has
fine head of hair, thanks entirely to it.
GEO. MAYER, Fldtonia, Te1ds, pre-
scented an apparently hopeless case. Bald
ness was hereditary in his family. BY
the time he was % years old he had
scarcely any hair left. One bottle of
AYERS HAIR VIGoR started a soft,
downy growth all over his scalp, and in
few months his head was covered with
soft, dark and abundant hair.

In the case Of Ida d. Chaplin OF al. against
William s. Loughrey, outerbridgc Horsey,
who was recently made party defendant
in the case, to-day filed petition, which is
not sworn 10, setting forth that che is q
judgment creditor Of BENJAMIN f. Bever-
idgo and that said Beveridge was q third
owner Of the real estate of which Amanda
i. Beverage died possessed that Boyer-
idge was insolvent, and for the PURPOSE of
defrapding and defeating petitioners judg-
ment, he conveyed his interest in said
property, to be sold by tho Marshal to
satisfy an execution under q Judgment in
favor Of Miefsel, Lampe & Co., and bought
in by the defendant Loughrey for 500,

Uses of Arctic Expuora,,ou

In three hundred years there have been
some two hundred arctic voyages, for various
purposes and with various fatee. The Greedy
expedition was but one OF thirteen expedi-
lions. Five hundred mon passed two winters
within the polar circle, and nineteen OF them
only were lost. And Lieutenant Ray says thar
the result OF the observations OF all
these expeditions Will be the doubling
OF the worlds knowledge OF the mag.
neifc forces. That Is TO say, as the
Rev. Brooke Herford states in his admir-
able sermon upon this subject, "Not one OF all
the thousand and ten thousand craft sailing
10 and fro among the many lands OF earth but
Will be little surer OF Its compass, n little
closer In It's reckoning, a little safer, than II
ever was before" Is this worth nothing? Is
not the risk, the loss, even amply recon-
pensed? But also, as Mr.. Herford points out,
The moral qualities, the patience, the courage,
the self denial, the faith, the endurance, de.
yeloped by these Northern researches are in.
comparable. "There is simply no other chap
ter In the history OF human doings to be com.
pared with 1t. Beside It the adventures Eof
commerce and conquest look greedy and base,
the stories OF chivalry are mere tinsei, the
long heroism Of the Crusades seem q lowered
frenzy" Cui Donor Is not an argument to dis.
courage the restless soul which tho prospect
OF peril inspires, nor Will the pathetic story of
the patient and generous endurance, amid ap.
parently remediless suffering, which the re-
cord OF the Greedy expedition discloses dlsmay
or deter other Greelys from daring the same
angefs. The Arctic story Is one OF the sad
dest, but II Is also one OF the noblest, In the
annals OF human heroism.- George William

A Reformed Brigand's Fate.


In the Mexican department OF the Instltut
Fair is superb saddle, about which cling all
the associations OF q tragic romance. II is
splendidly mounted with silver, Its pommei
bearing in large letters the monogram "a.
o." and II Is accompanied by bride, OF which
the reins are beautiful tubular chains, so cum :
ningly and intricately wrought that our gold.
smiths cannot compass the secret OF their
manufacture. The silver OF which these orna-
ments were made was plundered from
churches and shrines by the most famous OF
modern Mexican bandits, Antonio Cajaho, and
he is said TO have paid about 5000 for the max
Ing OF tho equipage. Antonio was an ideal
bandit quite the noble robber OF romance, and,
melted by mingled respect for his prowess
and despair OF outwitting him, the Mexican
Government offered full pardon and an of1i-
cial position In the army II he would forsake
his life OF brigandage. The bandit accepted
this grace, not being required, apparently, TO
diegorge even that wealth which he had &C.
quired by bold sacrilege. His band, however,
could not forgive this desertion, and lying IN
waitfor the reformed brigand, shot him as he
rode down mountain path, sitting In this
very saddle,
