Do You Use 1t?

It's the best thing for the
hair under all circumstances.
Just as no man by taking
thought can add an inch to
his stature, so no preparation
can make hair. The utmost
that can be done is to pro-
mote conditions favorable to
growth. This is done by
Ayers Hair Vigor. 1t re-
moves dandruff, cleanses the
scalp, nourishes the soil in
which the hair grows, and,
Just as a desert will blossom
under rain, so bald heads grow
hair, when the roots are nour-
ished. But the roots must be
there. If you wish your hair
to retain it's normal color, or
if you wish to restore the lost
tint of gray or faded hair use

THE SALE OF CUBA BY SPAIN.
The Worlds News Regarding What
may be Cleveiand's Plan
Greatly Interesting.

The suggestion in the New York
World as to President Cleveland's
possible plans with regard to the set
Element of the Cuban question has al
tracted much attention.
The proposed tripartite agreement,
whereby Spain is to sell to the Gu
bans their independence, Great Brit
ain to furnish the money on Cuban
bonds and the United States to guar
antee their payment, while commits
sion selected by Great Britain and the
United States perfect the plans, carry
the agreement into effect and have
supervision of the finances of Cuba, is
looked. upon as possible. In diplo-
matte and official circles it is thought
certain that some such plan will have
to be adopted.
1t is known that this plan has been
talked of as possible basis of action
by the United States, but whether
Mr.. Cleveland has committed himself
to it is doubted by many.

DON'T
Kill the Cats, Especially the
White Kittens.
The Latest Fad For the Fair
Ones.

Most remarkable of all the millin-
erv Innovations which sprang up
after the visit of their Russian Males
ties 10 Paris was a fantastic affair
known as the "chapeau du chat
blanc" or the black hat surmoIDted
by white cat.
One of these astonishing hats was
recently selected from Paris assort-
ment and brought to New York,
where it created considerable stir al
the first wearing. Had it not been
an exceedingly charming young wo-
man who wore it, the hat might have
seemed ludicrously grotesque, but as
it was it proved positively becoming.
II was of black satin, of really won
derfully shape. A tall cylindrical
crewn was surrounded by a broad,
dropping rim, which bent downward
at the front and back and was lifted
prettily at the side. Masses of black
feathers were placed about crown, not
touch of color relieving the inky
blackness.
All this, however, might have been
seen on any hat at any time. The con-
spicuously Distinguishing feature was
placed on the very top of the crown.
A small white kitten, posed in a most
life-like fashion, chung to the smooth
top of the satin crown and peered
wlckedly out of green glass eyes. 1t
was of snowy white, from the tips of
it's saucy ears to the end of its plump
little tail, and the contrast between
cat and chapeau was quite The most
extraordinary thing that has been
seen in the millinery for some time
New York World.

il is definitely learned, that long
continuance of hostilities in cuba VIII
not be countenanced by the United
States. This has been done in such h
way that Spain has had no grounds
for offense, but has been made to real
ize that unless she can restore peace
within a reasonable time she must be
prepared to suggest some plan or eX-
pee. it to be suggested by the United
States.
1t is said to be President Cleveland's
hope that Spain will offer some such
basis of settlement as the sale OF CUBA
to the Cubans. In fact the whole
trend of the diplomacy of this Gov
eminent is to endeavor to induce
Spain to take the initiative rather
Than TO wait tor the United States to
do 1t.

firm tone that had characterized the late
weak markets. On the local exchanges the
operations for European account were on
both sides of the market with most of the
orders, however. to sell. There was a
dearth of news bearing generally upon pri-

road earnings and slightly easier tenden-
cy in money rates. This last development
was largely due to the apathy in the
