It's the best thing for tho
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 q 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

Saving a mans life is looked upon as the
greatest service that can be rendered him.
If he Is in danger, he feels forever grateful
TO the friend who saves him. If he is de-
llvered from savages, or from wild animals.
or from drowning, or from the teeth Of a
shark, he can hardly find words to express
Rls gratitude. Is It surprising then that DR..
Pierce has received thousands and thous.
Rnds of enthusiastic letters from those who
have been saved from death and lingering
disease by his wonderful Golden Medical
Discovery" Hundreds of these people
write TO say that they had suffered for wears
that life had become miserable and that
death would have been welcome. Some OF
them Say that doctors had given them up to
die, when the use of the Discovery"
brought them back to happy life and health.
This great remedy is meant for any one who
has any disease of the throat, lungs, or bron.
chial tubes. Its strengthening and purify
ing effect on the lungs Is so great that it will

strengthening, purifying, invigorating tonic.

cesded In Saving His Life.
From the Evening News, Detroit, Mich.


Udney Y. Wilson, contractor and builder,
living in Detroit, Mich, at 81 High Street,
West, said regarding DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People: "For years l have
been out of doors in all kinds of bad weather,
looking after my building contracts. l have
worked many days in the rain and cold to
complete some building. About two years
ago l noticed l could not get around as l
should, and commenced to have q severe pain
in my back. / tried the usual remedies with.
out getting any relief, and for nearly q year l
suffered intensely. l kept up as long as l
could, as / had several contracts for buildings
that had to be completed.
AT night l could not sleep. My physi.
clan said it was my kidneys, and every day
/ went out doors they would keep me awake
nearly all the following night. Instead of
getting better l became worse, and Worried
. great deal about my work. The doctor
said | must quit work and 60 to bed, or he
would not be responsible for my life.
"All the medicines l took only helped
me temporarily. Some days / would feel
better and go out a day only to be again con-
fined to my bed for weeks at o time. One
day my wife suggested that I try DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and /
laughed at the idea.
Finally when I got into such a condition
that l would take almost anything in the
hope of relief, / tried the pills. They helped
me from the start, but l would not acknOwl-
edge 1t and said it was the other medicines
that had just commenced to work. ! disliked

THEY WANT TO DUCK HER,
SeighbOrs OF Mrs. Anselm Would Revive
an Ancient Custom.

Neighbors OF Mrs. Anselm Would Revive
an Ancient Custom.
Under the old "blue laws" of New
Jersey a common scold, if adjudged
guilty, may be ducked in a mill pond.
The law hasn't been enforced for manv
years. The tenants of an apartment
house in HOboken, however, believe it
should be ~ the case of Mrs. Matilda
Anselm. She has lived on the first floor
for nearly two years. The other tenants.
Mrs. Peter Half, Mrs. Henry Brusse
and Mrs. John Heinz, say she has made
things exceedingly lively during that
time. From interfering in their affairs
to creating a racket in her own apart
ments they say she has no equal, and
her tongue, they say, never stops wag-
glng.
With Mrs. Caroline Seigfried, who
OWNS the house and lives in one of the
apartments, she went too far. The re-
marks made by her reflected on Mrs.
Selgfried's character. So, with Frank
Ludwig, her son-in-law, Mrs. Seigfried
called on Recorder McDonough. The
latter could not see his way clear to en-
terrain a charge against Mrs. Anselm
for her aspersions upon her landlady's
character, but he could hold her under
the common scold act. This he promised
to do if Mrs. Seigfried produced wit
nesses to prove Mrs. Anselm a common

resting Coal.

An apparatus by which an engineer
may test or determine the quality and
adoption Of the coal he roO ives is de-
scribed in the Boston Journal of Com
merce. The test is not intended to be an
analysis, but principally to show the
mount of fixed carbon in the coal and
the percentage of ash. AS each carload
Is received samples are taken from 20 or
more parts of the car, thoroughly mixed
and quartered, each quarter being also
mixed and quartered until the sample is
obtained. This sample is then carefully
weighed, the volatile matter driven Off,
weighed again, and the carbon consumed,
and the ash weighed. This estimate is
important i'll guarding against the use
of coal having an undue percentage of
ash. The various Goals differ i'll the per-
centage of ash which they contain, some
Cumberland Goals having from IL to Ia
per cent of ash, while a good New river
will have as low as 3 or i per cent.
Thus, though the Goals may look alike
TO the average engineer, the heat value
characteriZing them is 10 per cent great
er i'll IL description than the other,
and, ascertaining this, an important
saving in the cost of fuel may result.

How his heart was but a splinter
Meath the magic of her spell.

Forced 10 keep young love from sight.
He declared In desperation,
II will write!"
80 he bravely set to burning
Gallons OF the midnight oil.
Passed through many "a tortuous turning
In epistolary toll;
Begged that he might forge the fetter
Tina but death cor law unlocks,
And at last he dropped the letter
In the box.
Dreaming she'd lie "his devoted"
How his soul was stirred to song
As the postlnan, sober coated,
Trod the drowsy street alonyl
Then one morn that worthy's whistle
Shrilled more sharply thar before,
And there fell a small epistle
At his door.
Oh, he doubted not the sender.
For her crest b wax revealed
With what trepidation tender
He the envelope unsealed!
But the fervor of his passion
Grew upon q sudden cool,
For she answered In this fashion:

WANT TO RAISE CANE.
MISSOURI FARMERS BELIEVE IT WILL
THRIVE Nv THEIR STATE.

A Big Convention. Considers the Subject.
Sugar Mills and Refneries to He Erect
d Plans For Experimental Stations
and Tests.
The sugar convention held recently at
Hughesville, Mo-, was q pronounced
success. The farmers who reside in
Hughesville district, which is the gar
den spot of central Missouri, have de-
cided to turn their attention from the
growing of corn and wheat to that of
cane raising, and the convention was
held for the purpose of effecting an or
ganization to secure the location of a
sugar mill and refinery at Hughesville.
The permanent organization was com
pleted by the selection of officers and
a board of managers. The proposed
Hughesville sugar mill and refinery will
cost $3.50, 900, and the capital for estab-
fishing the plant is assured. The mill
will require two diffusion batteries and
have a capacity Of 800 tons of cane each
"a hours, and 8, 900 acres of cane will
be necessary to keep the mill in opera
tton during the 100 days of the manu-
featuring season. 1t is believed that
when the mill is in operation kettle
sugar houses will be established at nu-
merous points in central Missouri, and
their output of brown sugar will be suf-
flcient to keep the refinery in operation
every month of the year.
1t is estimated that the rich soil Of
chic ~o~< nc tha c<,fn xr;1l ~~DJ,,~o T-~,~
10 to 20 tons Of green cane per acre,
while the seed, more valuable for stock
feeding than corn, will equal 35 to 40
bushels per acre. The lowest estimate
of the farmers profit in raising cane is
$50, while the 8, 600 acres of cane would
make a profit of 1886, 900 per annum to
the mill owners, or 80 per cent ON the
money invested. Each of the farmers
who have become members Of the asso-
citation will this year plant from one-
fourth to one-eighth of an acre of i'm
proved or pedigreed sorghum cane seed,
and the crops of cane will be subjected
to such tests as may be required by the
capitalists who are to provide the mill
and refinery. The experimental station
and expense of tests will cost 81, 200,
and that sum was quickly subscribed at
the convention. Probably no better To-
cality in the state than the vicinity of
Hughesville could be selected for cane
raising. The soil is deep and exceedingly
rich and the surface a rolling prairie.
The large plant can also be operated at
little expense for fuel, as the best of soft
coal is found i'll inexhaustible quantities
at a few feet from the surface.-St.
