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, clearses 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 its normal color, or
il YOU wish to restore the lost
tint of gray or faded hair use

The man that can name the Win
ner in the mayoralty contest in
Greater New York has not yet been
found. Each of the four parties are
confident, or profess to be, that their
man will win. As over half a million
votes will be cast it will be seen at a
glance that the election is the great
est since the last presidential election.
While we have been hoping all along
that Low will win it looks still as If
Tammany had the call and this is
further strengthened by the announce
ment that republicans have been in
structed to shout for Tracy and vote
for Tammany. Our prediction is
that the voting will show Van Wyck
a winner and that the order of the
other candidates will be Low,
George, Tracy. A remarkable feat
ure of the contest is the strength that
George is developing, while none OF
the politicians except Boss Platt's
heelers have considered that Tracy
has been in the race from the start.

Dig down to the cause ofyour sickness,
If you want to get well and stay well.
Most likely it's indigestion. The irrita-
ting poisons OF fermenting, putrid food,
left in the stomach by Indigestion, cause
headache neuralgia, nervousness, dizzi-
ness, stomach ache, nausea, irritability,
and all the other well-known symptoms
of Indigestion.
They also cause many pains and dis
orders which are often laid to other
causes and hence are not easily cured.
But as soon as the poisons are removed,
all these symptoms and disorders disap.
pear, because there is nothing left to
cause them. Nothing succeeds in this
like Shaker Digestive Cordial, because it
prevents the undigested food from fer
menting in the stomach and helps the
stomach to digest it's food.

played many Of the latest sporting
inventions and outfits, the gifts OF
various clubs and individuals.
On a platform at the rear OF the
Maine room is an Indian tepee OF
birch bark, and Indian men and
women are selling sW eet grass bask-
cts and other things of their own
manufacture. These with the stuffed
and mounted game here and there
give the room a very "woodsy' ap-
%pearance.
Aroostook county exhibits here its
famous potatoes-the life OF the
county almost, for when the crop
fails or prices are unusually low, the
farmers are often in actual need.
On another side of the room is a
booth of fragrant hemlock boughs,
and guides in gray golf suits stand
ready to answer questions and set
forth the beauty and attractiveness
Of their state.
At this time, when the old ship
Constitution, is attracting so much
attention the fgure.head of Andrew
Jackson, which is exhibited at the
fair is of greatinterest. This wooden
statue which was sawed from the
ship in 1884, is Of heroic size and is
very imposing. Gen. Jackson stands
there, erect in his majestic height
with a "do or die" expression on his
downward curving lips, his hair very
pompadour, his figure enveloped in a
military cloak with a high rolling
collar, and his tall hat of gray with
g black band and upturned rim, in
his hand.
Since we are speaking Of the Con-
stitution it will not be out OF place
to mention the celebration Of October
DIST, the one hundredth anniversary
of the launching Of the vessel. Five
ships of our modern navy were sta
tioued in Boston harbor to assist in
the celebration. the Massachusetts,
the New York, the Brooklyn, the
Texas and the Iowa. A parade was
the first in order on the day of the
celebration and promptly at two
o'clock it began to move from the
foot of State street. The sailors and
marines from the warships were in
line, as we'll as many veterans. At
the Old South Meeting House exer-
cises were held in honor of the occa-
sion, Senator Lodge making the adj
dress of the day. Governor Wolcott,
Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, Mayor
Quincy and other noted men also
spoke. Great enthusiasm centered
around Mai. William H. Garland,
who was powder boy on the Consti-
tuition at the time of it's famous en-
gagement with the Guerrero and the
only survivor of the Constitution OF
that time. He was given three times
three cheers, as he rose and spoke a
few words to the assembly in the
church.
After these exercises Gov. Wolcott
gave a reception on board "Old Iron
sides" and in the evening the Massa
chusetts and New York were illumi
mated making a brilliant and impos
ing spectacle and a fitting finale tt
the day. F. F.

The Lord Never Made A Panther.

"You don't think that the Lord is
really playful, do you, John Norton? ?"
said the Lad, moving his seat up nearer
to the old man, as if he thought a greater

personal contact, than in the edge Of the

Centennial Of the Good Ship Constitution.

Centennial Of the Good Ship Constitution.
(From our Boston Correspondent
One of the most important educa-
tional features of the Food Fair is
the Household Institute which occu-
pies a room on the second floor.
Here lessons in cooking are given
with practical demonstrations, every
day at two O'Clock by noted teach
ers and writers in culinary lines,
Mrs. Lincoln and Miss Anna Bar
rows being among the number.
These lectures are well attended by
women equipped with pencils and
note books, for the lecturers allow
their hearers to write down recipes
and make copious notes during their
talk.
One end of the room is set apart as
a dining room and a table here is
laid to show the best arrangements
for different social functions. This is
changed every other day. We have
seen the table set Tor a bachelor din
ner, a wedding breakfast and a chill
dren's party, and its extreme dainti'
ness and completeness OF detail con-
s%tantly called forth expressions of adj
miration. These lectures, demon
strations and tables must be very
suggestive and helpful to housewives.
On Wednesday of last week a lecture
on Japanese cookery was given by
T. Tomihama, with an exhibition
afterwards of the dishes he prepared.
In one corner Of the room, in a
small, one-story, s%lant-roofed house
is a Giving room of 1897" At the
real of the room is a large fireplace
in which are a crane and baking
kettles, with a foot stove and warm
ing-pan near by. A sampler, WORKED

The figures in a picture gain largely by
the kind of background they have. Ma
tional great.men gain by a similar con-
dition, and for them the background is
"the people," Without a people to lead
and a people to voice, where would our
great men be? The people are those or
binary, Woodworking ones, who continue
their duties steadily under this admins
tration or that; always hndable at the
post of honest labor. But these people
differ largely from the people of almost
any other nation, since our political in
stitutions are based upon their wills-or
whims. The necessity of their having
right ideas is therefore paramount. The
necessity also of showing them national
dangers is also extreme, since by their
voices and their votes, they are the arbi-
tiers of our national fate. Are we agreed
so far?
