Burton, of Bangor, Me, and numerous
others.
The loss Of hair may be owing to i'm
purity of the blood or arrangement Of
the stomach and liver. in which case,
a course of Ayers Sarsaparilia or of
Ayers Pills, in connection with the
NiGOr, may be necessary to give health
and tone to all the functions Of the
body. AT the same time, it cannot he
too strongly urged that none of these
remedies can do mach good without

shaking the curtain fold Of sleep
That shuts away
OF day.
The Winds low murmur in the ripplsd wheat
The warm breath blows, the slender heads droop
low,
Again, mors lightly tossed in merry play,
They bend and bow and sway,
With measured beat,
But never rest;
Through shadow and through sun
Goes on the tender rustic of the wheat
Dreams. more than sleep,
Fail on the listening heart and lull its care;
Dead years send back
Tha, treasured half forgotten time
All long ago,
When sun and sky were sweet;
We Stood breast high mid wavesof npened grain
And heard the wind make music IN the "heS''
Not for to-day.
Not for this hour alone the melody,

a NoIsY Dress. Improper.


A comical incident Ocurred the other
day on the Polish frontier. A lady who
had been making Purchases in the town Of
Katto witz, with the express purpose OF
smuggling them into Poland, bought
other items an alarm clock at a
watchmsker's. Thinking lightly of the
matter, she even told the young watch
maker Of her intention, and got him to ask
his wife to tie the clock beneath what is
now called a "fgure-improver." The watch
maker, being fond of a joke, man
aged, while the lady WAS waiting for his
wife. to set the alarm of the clock at the
hour when the train was timed to be at the
frontier station Sesnowice, and then hand
ed il to he fastened beneath his customers
dress. Well content with her bargain the
lady went of, arrived at the frontier and
passed the customs easily, but just "a she
was again stepping into the railway car
an awful noise burst forth, which
Quickly caught the attention of the officers.
The lady had to dismount amid the laugh
ter of the ~bystanders, to disrobe and TO pay
the fine of 10 rou6les for smuggling, while
the miserable t~ell-sale alarm was contisca-
ted.
