THE WAR OF CAPITAL AND LABOR
PacIacation Through ChrIstiaHity-A Ser
mon by MIR, TalmaEe.


At the Brooklyn Tabernacle Sunday
Mr.. Talmage spoke on the subject OF
labor and capital. In the course of his
l,a.-,~~ks he said can attempts at paci-
ficals IN between capital and labor have
been dead failures. Employers are be-
coming more arrogant; trades-unions
more bitter. The employee says give
me more wages; the employer says you
shalI have less. 4 won't work under
those conditions, says the workman.
Then starve, is the reply. he work.
man soon uses up that which accumu-
lated in better times. Unless there be
some radical change we shall have soon
in this country 5000, 900 hungry men
and women. Now 5000, 600 hungry
people cannot be kept quiet. All the
enactments of legislatures, all the con-
stabularies Of the cities, all the army
and navy of the United States cannot
keep 100000 people quiet. what
then Will this war between capital
and labor be settled by human means
Never But that which human armies
cannot achieve will be accomplished by
Christianity, even if it be in full sway.
You have heard of a medicine so power
full that one drop would stay disease and
restore the patient, but have to tell
Won that one drop of my test properly
/ administered will restore all these evils
of society to convaleseence and full
health; Whatsoever ye would that men
should do to you, do ye even so to
them
seThere can be no pacifeation of this
struggle through decrying against rich
men merely because they are nch.
There is no member of trades union
on earth who would not be rich If he
could be. But it is no more of a sin to
be rich than it is to be poor. There are
those who are kept in poverty because
of tier ORn faults. They smoke ana
chew up their earnings, while other men
with the same earnings acquire COM
potency. Bombardment of commercial
success will never settle this quarrel be-
tween capital and labor. Neither will
the contest be settled by cynical and I'M
sympathetic feelings for the laboring
classes. nor through violence. God
never blesses murder. The poorest use
TO put man to is to kill him.
"fOh,' says some wiseacre, talk as
Won will, the law of supply and demand
will regulate all these things in time.

CARE OF THE HAIR.
views ofan Expert on Cleansing the Seal

Vievva ofnn Expert on Cleansing the Scalp
In order to keep the hair and scalp IN
n healthy state, it is Of course necessary
that they should be scrupulously clean.
But beware of using irrigations OF cold
water with the intention OF thereby
cleansing or strengthening the hair.
Nothing causes the hair so soon to thin
and become gray and scanty as the re
duent use Of shower baths OF cold WAFER;
The best wash for cleansing the head
and scalp is made by putting INTO a
quart CT hot rain water piece OF lump
ammonia about the size of a Brazil nut,
and two table-spoonfuls OF solution OF
soft-soap. If you prefer carbonate OF
soda instead of soft-soap solution, piece
about the same size as the lump OF am
monia will suffice. Dry your hair well
after washing with a rough towel-nott
ssTurkish. " however, else you will get
vour hair filed with ''huff, than when
nothing is more troublesome to extrl-
cate. 1t knots and rolls in tbS,, 10 sShes
of the hair, and can onl9- f~IorclDly
dragged out with the comb.
The wash Just mentioned IS particu.-
larry suitable for fair hair, because botn
ammonia and soda tend to produce and
preserve an auburn or golden hue.
! DARK. haired persons should use the yelk
of an egg beaten up with little bicar-
donate Of potash or borax and warm
rain water. Some brunettes use red wine
the ordinary claret of continental
conntries-mixed with an egg and
varv small nuantitv of soda, Red wine
owes its coloring to the skin OF the
black grapes from which it is made, anc
Il contains, therefore, large amount O
tannin which is excellent tonic for the
akin and hair roots. If hair is scanty
from hereditary tendency, or is becom
ING thin through constitutional ill-health
we advise the use three OF four times
week. of the following mixture:
Bicarbonate Of soda half dram t
one dram: distilled or filtered rain water
two tablespoonful.
Rub some Of this preparation into tn
scalp at the roots of the hair with tn
fingers. taking care not to scratch tn
cufiele. Rub for five minutes at time
usino a gentle even friction and MAXIM
sure that you get well at the skin
Alternately with this lotion, on the IN
termediate days, you may use It'll
simple oil, applied in the same name
and with the same prolonged friction
Persevere with these systematic rubbing
during half a year, and then graduall
lessen their number. In bad cases
NAV be necessary to continue the treat
ment for twelvemnnth or more.

A PApER FoR TuE PEoPLE.
TEE MIDLAND RAILROAD.

The County Of Newberry. we are
glad to see is waking from her sleep
and this nes road is claiming the
attention of her right minded citizens
In our next issue ne will give our
readers Mayor Courtney's views on
this road, published in the Nesos and
Courier few days ago. It is an
elaborate document and should be
read carefully BY men on both sides
of the question. 1t shows clearly
the benefits which will accrue, giving
a statement concerning the present
status Of the enterprise, the necessity
for the road, the population and re-
sources Of the counties through which
it Will pass, and the available means
for its construction: Our great regret
is that We cannot give it in this issue
The question today is do we want
this road, if so re must put our hands
into our pockets, deep down and give
iberslly. Nor Will it do to speak
lightly or disparsgingly Of it. The
citizens of Prosperity are taking the
bull by the horns as It were and We
rejoice that it is so. The meeting
held there Monday night Of which
ful! report is given elsewhere shows
what this section is willing and able
to do. What will Newberry do.

after Col. O'Hara died, his last will be-
ing in favor Of the Mcleod family, this
will was forwarded to Ireland anu there
placed in the hands Of a we'll known

sentiments were expressed in the re-

1t seemed to be the general opin'
ion that it was useless to talk of build

The resolutions were heartily en-.
dorsed, and it was moved that the

that a copy be sent to the Neaos ana
