Optimism.
The world is old,
And love grows cold,
And hearts are sold
For gold,
They say.
My lady tastes the pleasure
OF each hour that passes by;
In fashions golden garden
The brightest butterfly,
Meanwhile down town her husband
From down until dark,
In bis close and cobwebbed ONCE,
out-toils his busiest clerk.
For the world Is old,
And love grows cold,
And hearts are sold
For gold
Weli-a-dayl
But my lady's presence ever
Brightens the busy place;
When he pauses In his writing
He sees her perfect face,
Meanwhile, uptown, my lady,
The gayest Of the gay,
The kiss OF her lips keeps for him
The love OF her heart all day.
Is the world, then oldf
Does love grow coid7
And are hearts sold
For gold

AYERS
Hair Vigor

restores, with the gloss and freshness Of
youth, faded or gray hair to a natural, rich
brown color, or deep black, as may DO 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 weak and sickly growth to vigor. It
prevents and cures scurf and dandruff, and
heals nearly every disease peculiar to the
scalp. AS . Ladies' Hair Dressing, the
VIaoE Is unequalled; It contains neither oil
nor dye, renders the hair soft, glossy, and
siIken in appearance, and imparts o delicate,
agreeable, and lasting perfume.
BfR. O. p. BRIoHER writes from Kirby, o.,
July s. 1882 :" Last fall my hair commenced
falling out, and Ia a short time became
nearly bald. 4 used part Of bottle OF
AYER's HAIR VIGoR, which stopped the fall

use promotes the growth Of new hair, and
makes IL glossy and soft. The VI1oR Is also

knowledge has the preparation ever failed
to give entire satisfaction"
MIR. ANGUS FAIRBAIRN, leader Of the
celebrated 4 Fairbairn Family" OF Scottish
Vocalists, writes from Boston, Mass, FEB. 9,
1880: ever since my hair began to give sill
very evidence of the change which heeting
time procureth, have used AYERS HAIR
VIeoR, and 30 have been able to maintain
An 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
&C., Charlestoi0n, Mass, ApriI IA, 1892 says
"Two years ago about two-thirds of my hair
came OF. 1t thinned very rapidly, and was
fast growing bald. On using AYERS HAIR
VIaoR the falling stopped and a new growth
commenced, and in about q month my head
was completely covered with short hair. 1t
