Prof. G. Birkholz, of Chicago the Eminent

treatment for badness the world has ever known.
He will carefully examine each case and
candidly inform the inquirer whether his
badness can be cured and the hair be restored.
These examinations are made without charge.
In all cases where there are any hair foilicses
remaining undestroyed by age or disease the
Professor will undertake cure, and if he does
not effect restoration of the hair he will ask
pay.
The remedy is an imported one, and the
treatment given by the Professor is his own, and
cures where all others fail. II your has
been pronounced incurable do not take it

BirkholZ and received his opinion

the hair. These increase in area and in time
produce complete badness In such cases the
hair follicles need nOuFishment. Prompt treat

BEATEN AT rlERRILL.

The Twin City ball team were defeated
in Merrill Sunday by a score of 10 to IS.
1t was hard day for the game the
wind blowing terrific gale of sand and
dust in the players faces all afternoon,
which probably accounts for the large
score on both sides. Our boys have
spoken in very high terms Of the good
treatment accorded them by Merrill S
ball team, and say they will do as much
for them when they come to our city,
Only eight innings were played in order
to catch the home train.
The score by innings is as follows:
123 567S
Merrill ....................0 4 3 0 @ 4 l 1-1e
Twin City........-.......1 4 2 2 0 0 0 Ii

Twin City will play it's next game in

Have Your Eyes Fitted.

The people Of the Twin Cities are
tired of trying to have their eyes fitted
by these so-called travelling opticians.
A great many have found, after the
"optician' has gone, that they have a
pair of glasses that tiiey cannot see with
and have paid two prices for; and
perhaps find that the fourteen karat
gold frames are nothing more than
about six karat or plated. Now, if you
patronize J. r. Chapman, you have a
chance to get back your money if they
are not entirely satisfactory

CIRCUIT COURT.

The VIM. Hoffman case has occupied
the entire attention of the Court from
the opening day, May 14th, until
Wednesday afternoon May 23rd. This
case has been hotly contested on both
sides and prosecuted by Attorney Geo.
r. Gardner and Geo. L. Williams of
this city, and w. Z. Blake, of Burling-
ton, Iowa; while the defense was
supported by Attorneys Burton Hanson,
of Milwaukee, Col. Bird, of Madison,
y. W. Cochran, of Centralia. The
testimony was lengthy on both sides.
A day and half was occupied in the
argument. All the attorneys made long
and eloquent addresses. Mr.. Blake Ill
his closing remarks made use of the
following original poetry dedicated tC
his worthy opponent Col. Bird:
Wet marshes and the midnight air.
Witnessed the feryOr of Dan (Waters) prayer
Fire moves in mysterious way,
When Col Bird it sees
1t skipps pine bark, it jumps dry grass
And climbs green maple trees.
The case went to the jury Wednesday
afternoon at 4 o'clock and they came i'll
this morning at with a verdict Of 5000
for the plaintiff Mr.. Hoffman. It was q
great disappointment to all who heard
the testimony. At the former trial the
jury allowed plaintiff ST, 800.

WISCONSIN WEATHER SERVICE.
BY Chas. E. Linney, Director, for the Week end
ing Tuesday, May %, 1884.

Bulletin No. 6.
The first Of last week was marked by
exceptionally warm, showery weather,
and, except a few severe local storms
which caused heavy rains and hail, with
high water, in some cases, the con-
ditions were most favorable for a very
rapid growth of grain and quick germin-
alton of sOwn seed. Corn and potatoes
came up quick and everything was most
promising. In southern counties the
planting was nearly completed and
large progress made in all sections. On
the morning of the 18th the conditions
changed with great suddenness and
rain, snow, cold and high winds pre-
vailed, followed Saturday and Sunday
mornings by severe frosts and ice in
nearly every county of the state. Ice Il
quarter of an inch in thickness is re-
ported from many parts, while the snow
is given at two to six inches. Corn,
potatoes and garden truck, which was
above ground, was cut down in many
counties; small grain seems not to have
suffered so much by the freeze, and ex-
cept in a few minor cases it has with
stood the cold without harm. 1t is
probable that the high winds were the
only saving agent, and these caused
some damage where grain had made a
large growth. The full effect of the cold
and wind will NOT he known hefore
another week has passed, especially on
fruit. Correspondents generally con-
slider the present cool and cloudy
weather as favorable, making Il more
hardy growth and one which withstand
later frosts the better.

Cute Sayings.

There is nothing quite so bad as a
tomato that isn't good.
The smaller the man, the larger the

The old age we are taught to reverence
never dyes its beard.
People do not fool others halfas much
as they fool themselves.
All that you can truthfully say of
some men is that they are alive.
Give any man all the liberty he wants,
and he Will so to the devil.
1t is a lamentable fact that every man
has something to howl about.
About the first thing a boy learns
after he puts on pants, is to spit like a
man.
Every man thinks it is his strong will
alone that prevents his troubles from
driving him mad.
A mans mind is q scrap book, and
the tough things he pasted in it when
he was young, never fade.
Life may not be worth living, but no
one has ever come back to prove that
death is worth rushing into,
People who keep their money tied up
in stockings, usually believe in ghosts
and fairy tales.
After man gets old, he begins to
wonder if anybody in the world beside
himself tells the truth.
If you want to please Il man, catch
him in crowd, and ask him some
question that he is smart about
Love is the greatest controlling
influence in life, but you see no Cupid S
arrows engraved on tombstones.
