Do You Use It?

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,
lust 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 its normal color, or
II you wish to restore the lost
tint of gray or faded hair use

Mr.. Mckinley will have to learn
from the newspapers that he has re-
ceycd a majority Of the electoral
votes, and has been duly and formally
elected President Of the United States.
When a $500 government clerkship is
filed, the arpointee receives a notice
from the civil service commission. A
member-cleCt OF Congress is given a
certificate by the secretary of the
State in which he lives. A puStmas-
ter, after being confirmed by the
senate, is given Il commission. But
the citizen who is elected to the high
est Office in the gift of the American
people receives no notice, no certih-
cate, no commission. When Mr.. Geo
+. Edmunds was in the senate he had
a good deal to do with the drafting Of
the elaborate law under which the
electoral votes are now canyaSsed. He
was asked one day how a man elected
to the Presidency was going TO find it
