A Toilet Luxury.

Where the hair Is brittle, dry. harsh,
weak, or thin, the use of AYERS HAIR
VIGoR speedily renders it plant. soft.
glossy, and stimulates it to a rich and
luxurious growth: it also keeps the scalp
free from dandruff. and affords perfect
assurance against the hair falling out or
turning gray. No other dressing is so
clean or has such delicate and delightful
perfume. Without it the toilet cannot be
complete.
Ladies who have once made trial of
AYERS HAIR NIGOR never after prefer
any other hair-dressing, and many of them
voluntarily offer such testimonials as the
following, from Miss KATE ROSE, niger
soil, Ont, who writes:
"While keeping my head clear Of Dandruff,
and preventing Scald Head, it has also caused
my hair TO grow luxuriantly, resulting in my
now possessing hair forty two inches long, and
as thick as any one could wish it."

Gold! Gold! Gold!'' All through
the year 1864 speculation ran wild upon
this precious circulating medium. Gold
was the topic that next to the move

lation in every other article Of use or
commerce. The stock market largely
hinged upon the quotations Of gold,
and grain and provisions were for
months dependent entirely upon the
operations Of the Gold Board In Wall

being gambled il. Money was bet on
the price of money.
The fever for gold specializing ragged

the brokers' were kept busy executing
orders for customers both in and ont 81

was e B. Stiles. Of Dixon, who was .

A Thrilling Adventure.

At the mouth of Beaver creek, on
the Missouri river, lives q family by the
name of Filson. There are several
sons, and they are all noted as being
very powerful men and very fond Of
hunting. One day while Daniel Boone.
the eldest, was out cutting hay in the
field he heard his dogs give tongue q
few hundred yards distant, and procur-
ing his gun ho followed the direction
of the sound until finally he discovered
them baying something in q clump Of
bushes on knoll only q few feet dis
tant from the river bank. Regardless
of danger, he rushed up to the river
bank to reconnoiter, but he had scarce
~ time to discover anything when out
sprang huge bear, rose on his
launches. and jumped for an attack.
Mr.. Filson had just time to bring his
gun half way to his shoulder, when it
was discharged without taking aim.
BY singular coincidence Mr.. Elson's
brother-inalaw had heard the barking
OF the dogs, too, and was Fastening to
the scene, and only few rods distant,
as the bear sprang out of the bushes.
Having his gun loaded with heavy shot,
he fred at the bear at close quarters,
hitting him, but also shot Mr.. Filson
in several places. The next Mr.. FIJI
son knew he ssound himself buried in q
sand-bar. all except q portion Of his
face around the eyes, with the bear
standing directly over him and growl-
ing savagely at his brother-in-law, who
was preparing for another shot His
brother-in-law fired, and the bear
sprang in the direction Of the shot, but
as he did so his hind paws, which were
resting on Mr.. Filson's legs, were
brought down with such quickness and
strength that they tore the flesh from
the bones in shreds. Before the bear
could reach the brother-in-law he fell
mortally wounded; but Mr.. Filson lay
for six months in q precarious con-
dition, and has never fully recovered
from the injuries received. In relating
the circumstance he stated that when
that bear stood on him it seemed that
he weighed fully as much as big ele-
plant, and for whole year afterward
he felt as if he had almost been crushed
to pieces.

Flirting in New York.

It is very difficult to Judge of wo-
mans station in life from her appear
ance on the street, says q New York
correspondent. presume this is the
reason why it is often asserted out Of
town that New York ladies are con-
firmed hirts. The fact is that in no
city Of America is there SO little street.
flirting by ladies as in New York.
Brooklyn is notorious for its flirting
women. It is considered quite the cor
rect thing, or, more properly, it is not
considered incorrect for girl to have
an occasional Irritation in the street
there, but in New York it is frowned
down bitterly. There is no doubt that
in Brooklyn, and in many smaller
towns of similar characteristics, wo-
men and girls who are bored by lone
illness and the absence of any sort Of
excitement occasionally, and ''just for
the lark of the thing" indulge in .
qdiet street Irritation. There are many
cases where women of unexceptionable
character are led to the thing more
through excitement than viciousness or
an absence of moral stamina. But in
New York such thing is unknown. 1t
may be asserted, without particle Of
doubt, that a lady here never flirts-in
the street. I don't know exactly who
is responsible for this. Perhaps it is
that the most picturesque and attract
i've men to be found in New York
streets are bunko men, card sharks,
adventures, and dissipated club men.
who live without visible means of sup
port. There is vast class Of these
fashionable men who spend most Of
their time on the public highways and
devote as much of their attention as
they can spare from the arduous tolls
of business to the women who walk
abroad. It does not take New York
girl long.to find out that men of this
class are dangerous. She is never sure
who the man is who she brushes
against in the crowd. He may be q
bank burglar or Wall street broker.
She is liable to find otit If she pursues
Investigations little further, but she
is always afraid to take the risk, and
therein is the safeguard.
1t will be observed that do not give
New York women credit for having a
higher moral standard than women Of
any other city in the country. Such an
assumption would be grotesque, for
ladies here are no better off morally
than anywhere else in the country. But
their street manners arc certainly vast
" superior to those of the ladies Of
other cities that I have ever visited.
This may be because they know the
danger they run and are proportion
ately careful, or it may be on account
Of the firm conviction that street firt-
ing is low and in execrable taste. When
I speak of ladies in connection with
this subject I mean a lady in the high
est sense of the term There are un-
questionably lots of women who indulge
in Broadway firtations. When one
traces them up, however, they are al.
ways found to belong to very low so
cial strata.

An Amateur.

One day last week, says the Brooklyn

bald man.
"'Got any Indians on draughtp'' ask

the counter and eying the bald man
with gloomy foreboding. 81 want q

". I'VE don't keep Indians on

manded the boy, running his voice
through higher pipe. Can't ye let
me have some buffalers till ] git into

I'VE only print paper. We don't

explained the bald man.

''Of course, we haven't, you young

''Git, will you?" demanded the tor

reared up on tho counter and developed

But the bald headed man and the
man with a wig had no time to wait fol-
any extra pressure. The boy had full
charge of the institution, tho merits OF
which he outlined in the following
double loaded editorial:

Prominent among the notables at

more in a given time, no one has ever
