come thick, soft, and vigorous. 1t restores
the color Of youth to locks which have
become faded with age or disease; and

Five courses of brick will lay one
foot in height on a chimney. Nine
bricks in course will make hue

Choosing Between Evils.
No Necessity of a Choice.

The Nea0 York Witness, speaking
of the New York candidates for
Governor, says:
GAS between Mr.. Hill and Mr..
Davenport there is no necessity of
a choice, as there is another can
didate, who, while undoubtedly
honest personally, has no affilia-
ton with political tricksters, as
both of the more prominent candi-
dates have, and is at the same time
straight on the important question
of the day-the necessity of freeing
this country from the saloon incu-
bus. We therefore call on all good
men who love God and man, or who
desire the material prosperity of
this great State, to seek Gods
guidance as to whether it is not
their duty to vote for Mr.. Bascom,
and thus protest in the only effect
ual way against the subserviency
of the two great parties to the sa-
loon interest"

A Sad Comment.

1t is a sad comment on the
Christian countries interested in
the evangelization of Africa, that
for every missionary who goes there,
10000 gallons of liquor are sent to
the country. At that rate how
long will it require for the answer
of the dying prayer of Livingstone
in the very heart of the dark con-
tinent, "God, heal this open sore of
the worldH Let Christian people
who give comfort and favor to the
accursed liquor-t traffic answer

Last Fall, when we we're sup

were frequently told that prohibi-

a State issue. The friends who Of
fered this opinion were all good
Prohibitionists. and ready to work

Well, now, friends, we are at the
State issue, and we want your
help in every State in the Union.
You need not decide whether to
support the National Prohibition
party, or not, till next National
election. In the mean time help
gain the States, and then if you do
conclude to vote some other ticket
IN 1888, Well try to part as friends
and thank you for the assistance
you have given US. If any think
it is not State issue, but only a
local one, let them at least vote
the local ticket, and thus help to
secure local officers in favor of good
government, If you can't 60 all
the way with Prohibitionists, let
us have your company so far as you
see your way clear to go. Is not

Abraham lincoln. Poverty.


In Arnold's Anecdotes Of Lincoln's Early
Life we have an account OF Lincoln's ar
rival, in 1887, at Springfield, where the
lawyer who lent him law books had offered
him u partnership. "He rode,r an old
friend tells Us, into town ON a borrowed
horse, without earthly goods beyond a pair
OF saddle bags, two or three law books and
some clothing in the bags. He came into
my store, set his saddle bags on the counter,
and said: Speed, tell me what the furniture
for a single bedroom viii cost l took
my pencil, figured it up. and found 1t
would cost s1z. Lincoln replied: 1t IL

his earthly goods and chattels by taking his
saddle bags up stairs had made his elastic

L LOCKWOOD
Interviewed at the Depot by a Leader
Man Yesterday.

A distinguished looking, somewhat
elderly lady stepped from the train which
arrived Yesterday afternoon from the east,
and asked a LEADER man the way to the
telegraph Office. He pointed the way and
then turned to the sleeping car conductor
to inquire who the lady was. That"
said he, is Mrs. Belva Lockwood, who
was the woman's rights candidate for
president last fall. That was enough.
The reporter followed the lady into the
superintendent office, and after waiting
until she had arranged some defects in
her ticket, introduced himself The lady
was willing enough to talk, but she had
to be followed about while she made in
cursions here and there among the rail-
way Offices attending to her business. At
intervals when she had an opportunity to
talk, she said she had been away
from Washington on a lecture tour,
about six weeks. She has in that time
spoken five or six times in Iowa towns
and about twenty-five times in Nebraska.
She was now on her way to the Pacific
coast, will speak at Rawlins on the night
of the 4tb, and has five engagements in
Salt Lake City, all under Mormon auspi-
ces. why" said she, Delegate Cam
there is my manager for Utah. Upon
being asked why she did not stop ut Chey-
enne to lecture, she said she hadn't been
invited. II am not in the lecture field on
my own account, - said she. Il have
been urgently requested to lecture in all
the places where | have dates" Her
subjects are. Social and Political Life in
Washington, u American Statesmen"
Equal Rights" Temperance" and
others, but she says that the lecture
on Washington is the most popular
and she delivers it o%ffenest.
The reporter asked her what she
politics are and she replied: Equal
rights" But" said the reporter, 'as
between Democrats and Republicans, how
do you stand ?" well" said she,
when see somebody bouncing down on
a Democrat, Pm for the Democrat and
vice versa. That is, | am for the under

Lockwood, as she stood on the car step

and the glorious scenery and / would
come to Wyoming to live if you'd send
me to Washington" you'd have TO be

stander, ITO be elected from here now"
Mr.. Lockwood said she was well ac-
quainted With Mr.. and Mrs. Post, and
oppressed regret at not seeing them. She
was somewhat consoled, however, at the
thought of having Secretary Morgan for
company to Rawlins, that gentleman
being then and there introduced to her
and expressing his intention to be with
her that far enroute. AT this iuncture a
porter brought her a pitcher of coffee, and
