A Cheap Hair Restorer.

A correspondent OF the New York Sun
furnishes the following recipe to make a
hair restorer to stop the hair from falling
out. It is vouched for by a number Of
persons. and as it is cheap and easily
made, can be tried without much cost or
trouble
Fill pint bottle not quite full with
alcohol; then shove into the bottle all the
fresh pine shavings that it viii hold, A
great many can be thus introduced. Let
it stand several days, shaking now and
then to help the process of absorption.
The preparation is then ready, Saturate
the hair with it morning and night, rubbing
it into the scalp with the ends of the fng-
ers. 1t is well to filtrate the fluid through
porous paper. so as to free it from part
icles Of the dust of the wood. 1t will
come out as clear as crystal. A few drops
of glycerine should be added, as otherwise
the mixture is apt to make the hair sight
" harsh, and if desired any kind Of per-
fume may be given, it Is the pine siIaviDgs
and alcohol, however, which do the work,
and there is no wash ever made for hair
that can surpass or equal the virtue of this
one which is within the reach of every per-

Bryan to Travelling-Me

LINCOLN, NEB., December 2S.-The
large dining room of the Lincoln Hotel was
tastefully decorated tonight, when the 175
invited guests of the Lincoln Travelling
Mems Bryan Club sat down to banquet,
which was given in honor of William J.
Bryan In addition to the address deliy-
cred by Mr. Bryan; Governor Holcomb,
Senator W. v. Allen, and other prominent
men of the State spoke In responding
to toast, Mr.. Bryan said
The travelling are in position to
measure the promises made by the Repub-
lican party with the fulflment of those
promises. The public was told that Re-
publican success would restore confidence,
and that confidence was the only thing
lacking. In Dun S review of November
7th we find these works A great reyo-
luton has been effected this week in the
conditions which control business There
is more evidence already that crushing
weight has been lifted and rolled away,
and the business world has begun to adjust
itself to state of freedom and security
which it has not known for years. Dread
Of Unreasonable disaster no longer locks up
resources and paralyzes industry, and new
contracts involving many millions have be-
come binding since the election.
The following week the same review
says No one now doubts that the
brighter day is dawning, and it is common
remark that never before has business
shown 50 great change for the better
within single week.
The following week the review starts
out with the statement The gain in
volume of business continues entirely with
out precedent.
By the fourth week, disappointment
began to manifest itself, and | find ac-
cording to Duns report that FIVE Of the
eight reports since the election show an in
crease of weekly failures over the cores
ponding weeks of last year. For the eight
weeks since the election the reports show
seventy-fve business failures more than
for the corresponding weeks of 1895. |
call attention to these figures, because
they show either that confidence has not
vet been restored, or that confidence, if
restored, has not restored prosperity. The
Republicans have promised to restore nor
NAL conditions without increasing the
volume of currency What they may do
hereafter remains to be seen. but ii is
evident that they have thus far failed to
bring relief to the people.

Red Apple Country.
From the St. Louis Republic.

The reported purchase by an English
syndicate of SO, geo acres of land IN South
ern Missouri for colonization purposes is
encouragement to believe that at last the
peculiar adaptability of the soil and climate
Of the Ozark region to the culture of APP
pies and other species of staple fruits of
commerce is being recognized. Probably
the experiment made by Congressman
Richard Parks Bland in devoting seventy
Ave acres of his farm lands to the cultiva-
tion of single variety Of apples has spread
the fame of the Ozark plateau as the
home of the big red apple further than
the ordinary means of advertising would
have reached The English syndicate is
said to have paid only % cents an acre for
the vast tract which it is going to COLOMBO
with Swedes. This may mean that the
land so purchased is remote from railroad
connection. as we know Of no realty close
10 the railroads which traverse the region
indicated that could be acquired for less
than So an acre.

Negro Education in the South.


From the Atlanta Journal.
Some time ago the Journal referred to
the liberality of the Southern States in the
matter of negro education, showing that
they had appropriated nearly $50, goo, 600
to negro schools since emancipation, and
that more than 50 per cent. of this sum
had been paid by the whites. We stated
in that article that the South is inevitably
committed to two propositions First, the
support of negro schools by general taxa
ton; second the separation Of the schools
for whites and negroes Hinder this policy
40 per cent. of the ILL crazy among
negroes has disappeared; over 1000
negro teachers have found places in South
ern schools. and their number as well as
the number of negro pupils. is steadily IN
creasing. We also called attention to the
fact that there are in the South, besides
the common schools for negroes, which
every Southern State maintains with in
creasing liberality, 165 institutions for the
secondary and higher education Of negroes
including thirty two colleges.

10 every one on earth
God gives burden, to be carried down
The rod that lies between the cross and crown;
No lot is wholly free
lie giyeth one to thee.
Some carry Il aIoft,
s0pen and visible to any eyes;
And all may see its weight and form and size;
Some hide 1t in their breast
And deem it thus nngnessed.
Thy burden IS Code gift,
And 1t viii make the bearer calm and strong;
Yet. lest Il press too heavily and long,
lie says: cast it on Me,
And it shall easy be-
And those who heed His voice,
And seek to give it back in trustful prayer
Have quiet hearts that never can despair,
And hope lights up the way
Upon the darkest day.
Take thou thy burden thus
Into thy hands and lay il at christs feet,
And whether it be sorrow, or defeat,
Or pain, or sin, or care,
o, leave it calmly there.
1t is the lonely load
That brushes out the life and light of heayen
But, borne with Him, the soul restored, forgiven,
Sings out, through all the days,
Her joy and Cod tigh praise.
