The loss of the hair Is one of the. most serious losses a woman can undergo. Beautiful hair gives many woman a claim 10 beauty which would be utterly wanting if the locks were short and scantyS It is almost as serious loss when the natural hue of the hair begins to fade. and the shining tresses of chestnut and auburn are changed to gray or to faded shadow of their former brightness. Such a loss is no longer a necessity. There IS one remedy which may we'll be called 6 great remedy by reason of it's great sue cess in stopping the falling of the hair, cleansing the scalp of daudruf. and re storing the lost color to gray or faded tresses. Dr. Ayers Hair Nigor is stand ard and reliable preparation, in use i'll thousands of homes and recon mended by everyone who has tested ii and expert enced the remarkable results that follow its use. It makes hair grow. II restores the original color to hair that has turned gray or faded out. It stops hair from iall. ing, cleanses the scalp of dandruf and gives the hair thickness aud gloss that no other preparation can produce.

The affable passenger had been searching for q victim for long time. He had made eXclamations when reading his paper, in the hopes that t would attract the attention of some one and give him the opportunity to show his power as q eonyersationalst. but all his little ruses failed The people who sat near him seemed to he wholly eentered on themselves. but still he was not com pletely discouraged. He looked about him, and, selecting one man to whom he thought he. might be able to impart much interesting information, he began operations by re. marking:
 Pardon me, but you look very much like n man l know"
 The man who wasaddressed looked over the atable passenger gloomily, and, recognizing the type, he replied in tones that would eeanse the thermometer to sink, even in the klondike:
 Yes, that Is possibly so: but at the same tune you must excuse me, for you look ex- aetly like man l don't want to know. = Puck.

THE FARMERS INSTITUTE.

A large gathering Of intelligent and
wiide-awake farmers from all parts Of
the county attended the State Farm
ers' Institute at Warren on Friday
last. They came to learn the latest
ideas and most improved methods Of
farming. And they were not disap-
pointed. The corps of able and ex-
perienced instructors sent out by the
state in the course Of their short talks
threw out many valuable pointers
that can not help being beneficial.
Supt. 0. G. Gregg was not present,
but Lieut.. Gov. John Z. Gibbs, M.
F. Greeley, G. H. True, and supt.
Hoverstad, of the State Experimental
farm, held the floor in turn, discuss
ing each his favorite topic.
Lieut. Gov. Gibbs, who is a practi-
cal farmer down in Freeborn county,
gave an interesting talk on diversi-
fled farming, recounting the expert
ence Of the southern part Of the state.
There was time there when wheat
was the only crop, but necessity com
PEELED the farmers to adopt differ
ent system. He told Of the establish
ment and growth Of creameries in his
section Of the state, and the improved
conditions of the farmers resulting
therefrom. He also gave some inn
portant pointers on the feeding Of
COWS.
Mr.. M. #. Greeley gave an inter
esting talk on sheep raising, and the
profit resulting from a well kept
flock on a farm. He regarded this
section of the state as an ideal one
for this industry. Sheep give us
wool and mutton, and he believed
the latter should be the principal OBJ
ject for keeping them. They are
great. weed destroyers and at the
same time they enrich the land on
which they Craze. He believed the
sheep should be fattened for the mar
ket right here on our own grain and
screenings, and not allow this profit
to go elsewhere. He knew one farm
er who made as much as $50, 900 last
year on fattening Montana sheep.
Mr.. Greeley also told Of the hen and
how she can be made to serve a
useful purpose in the payment Of
store bills.
Mr.. G. H. True gave some valu-
able pointers on the creamery and
dairy question and the management
Of cows SO as to obtain the best re-
suits. He exhibited some model
stalls, which experience has proved
to be just the thing. His talk was
very Instructive.
At the close Of each talk an in
formal discussion Of the subject was
had, Questions were asked and an
.swered, and IN this way a great deal
of useful informa tion was dissemin-
sated
asg
