Every person, male or female, shrinks
from badness. 1t adds to the appearance
of age and is serious discomfort. The
cases are rare when the falling out of the
hair may not be stopped and new and
healthy growth of the hair promoted. The
hair grows in the scalp like plant in the
soil. If plant fourishes, it must have
constant attention; Il must be watered
regularly and find its food in the soil
where il rs rooted. It's so with the hair.
Neglect is usually the beginning of bald
ness. Daudruh is allowed to thicken on
the scalp. The hair begins to loosen. The
scalp loses its vitality. The hair, insult
6ciently uourished, begins to fade and TO
fall. The instant ueed in such q case is
some practical preparation which, sup
plying the needed nourishmeut to the
scalp, will feed the hair, give it strength,
and so produce a strong and healthy
growth. All this is done by DIR. Ayers
Hair Vigor, the most practical and valua-
bile preparation for the hair that can be
obtained. It tones up the scalp, does away
with dandruff, stops the hair from falling,
restores the original color to gray or faded

A DRUNK CURE

That Was Very Heroic and Most Effectual.
He was a great big fellow, with d
fist on him that could fell an OK, and q
Jaw that indicated he was willing to if
an opportunity were offered, but in
other respects he seemed to The Sun
reporter to be a most exemplary man.
He was one of dozen laborers wait
ing on pier for scow that was ap-
parently never to get there, and they
were talking about a drunken man
who had been removed a few minutes
before in patrol wagon.
"By gosh," said the big fellow, 81
used to have a weakness for the wet
myself, and I'm ashamed to say so,
but I've took a ride in that same 60
hickle, too. More than one, 1 guess,
but it's all over now."
One of the men chafed him bit,
and be went on.
About 20 years ago or thereabouts,
when I was a bigger fool than I am
now," he said II was hard one, but
somehow I found a woman to have me,
and 1 got married. She might have
done worse, mebbe, for l was never
out of work, but she couldn't have
done much worse, though I'm thinking
it wouldn't have been safe to have told
her so. Annie's friends, and mine,
too didn't want her to marry me, but
YOU know how a woman is when she
takes notion, and Annie had notion
l was worth trying to save. Of course,
1 made all kinds of promises and swore
to them thicker than blackberries, that
1 wouldn't drink any more, and would
keep myself straight for her sake.
You know how men do when they are
in love with girl, and I guess l was
in love with Annie. I told her she
would save me if she would marry me,
and she thought mebbe she could, so
she married me.
"Annie owned her own house, and
we went to housekeeping in that, and
for the first two months we was hap
pier than two bees in a honeysuckle,
and 1 thought it was easy as anything
to be respectable if I had good woman
to help me. After time got used to
being married, and kind of felt lone
some of nights and wanted to see the
boys once more, so I went out one Sat
urday night and come home fuller
than a wagon load of hay.
"Annie met me at the door, and l
had sense enough to see that my only
chance was to put a bold front on and
bulldoze it through. And I did, for /

times as ugly, and the way 1 talked

MAKING HOME COMFORTABLE. -
Men grow sated of beauty, tired of
music, and often, too, wearied of con-
versation-however intellectual-but
they can always appreciate a well
swept hearth and smiling comfort.
A woman may love her husband de-
votedly-may sacrifice fortune, friends,
family, country for him. She may
have the genius of Sapho, the en-
chanted beauties of an Armida; but,
melancholy fact, if with these she fails
to make his home comfortable his
heart will inevitably escape her, and
women live so entirely in the affec-
tions, that without love their existence
is a void. Better submit, then, to
household tasks, however repugnant
they may be to your tastes, than doom
yourself to loveless home. Women
of a higher order of mind will not run
the risk they know that their femi-
nine and domestic duties are their first
duties.

KANSAS DID HER BEST.


Tried Hard to Keep New England Mills
Running.
Topeka (Kansas) State Journal.
1t is with sadness we hear that the
mills of New England must shut down
because the people of Kansas, Nebras-
ka and other western states cannot
buy the goods they are manufacturing.
Willingly would we do so, if we could.
Gladly would we purchase S. derby
hats of new and fashionable shapes,
Louis V chairs and tables with beauti.
full carved and gilded legs, pink globed
lamps three feet spring lawns with
punches of violets all over them, pat
ent leather shoes with the new fash
ioned semi.pointed box toes, and many
more things made in New England by
the clever French Canadians, Armen-
ians and Italians who constitute the
boasted -blooded "descendants of
Puritan forefathers" that we hear 80
much about.
Oh, that we could buy them; we
want them bad enough, for with the
Gallo taste and peculiarities that Will
liam Allen White says the people OF
Kansas possess and display, comes also
the French love for things pretty and
artistic.
We have in Kansas mountains OF
things material to exchange with New
England for her things material. In
Kansas there are miles and miles OF
corncribs bursting full there are gran
neries running over with wheat there
are millions of cattle-st statistics say
more than was ever known in the his
tory of the state. There are pens full
of pigs, corrals full of sheep, coops
full of chickens. Hundreds of cream.
cries increasing in number weekly
turning out a golden stream Of butter.
Kansas has always been the great
bread state of the Union she is now
becoming the great bread and butter
state.
But we can't buy the manufactured
goods of New England with the pro.
ducts of our soil, because we can't sell
these products.
Nobody seems able to purchase our
corn, wheat and cattle, just as we are
not able to purchase New England's
clothing, furniture and shoes.
Now, if we could only get together
on some commercial basis trade would
spring up, everybody could buy every
thing he needed, the wheels in the
mill would begin to turn, the corn be-
gin to move, and rotund, blooming
prosperity smile upon the whole coun-
try.
All that is needed to bring about
this joyful state of affairs is money in
circulation-more of it. Enough
money to flush the dried up channels
of trade Money, as has been said, is
like the blood to the human body
reduce it and the body faints and
droops; fill the veins full and life and
health return.
Kansas said at the election that the
country needed more money. New
England said no in stentorian tones.
We are sorry the mills of New Eng
land must close; we did all we could
by our votes to keep them open.
