The certainty that the Spanish At

tries have felt the uplifting influence.
In finances the growing anxiety to lend
on even long exchange at low rates in
place of shipments of gold to this coun-
try begins to accumulate a standing
credit in favor of the United States.

A Harmless Metal

Attention is called to tn, fact that
the salts of aluminium are quite harm
less, while the salts of zinc, copper and
lead are poisonous. When in cooking
certain fruits in aluminium utensils the
metal shows signs of discoloration,
there is not the slightest danger from
such action, for the acid in the fruit is
merely attacking the impurities Of the
metal. 1t has been proven that there
is no injurious consequences can result
from such possible discoloration, and
such pure aluminium is now to be OBJ
tanned that there is little probability
of the aluminium ware becoming dis
colored.

TO hcrcdity, to the trans smission of
traits from sire to son, we owe most of the
possibilities of growth and development.
II each newly born being started out anew,
without the force of heredity the level
of life might be expected to be that of the
digger Indian or Bushmar. Naturally bad
traits descend like the good. Peculiarities
of feature, excentricitieS of speech and
manner, birth marks, etc, are handed
down just as surely as manual dexterity,
physical beauty, mathematical ability,
and the mental and moral qualities in
general. "A curious example of this de-
scent of family traits is furnished by Mrs.
Maggie Pickett, Canton, Ga, in whose
family gray hair was hereditary. She
writes:
"Gray hair is hereditary in our family.
As long as can recollect, my mothers hair
has been gray About twelve years ago,
my hair began to show signs of turning.
I resolved to try Ayers Hair Vigor, and
after using it only few times my hair
was restored to its natural color. / still
use this dressing occasionally, a bottle
lasting me quite a while; and though over
forty years of age. my hair retains its
youthful color and fulfness. To all who
have faded and gray hair, / would heartily
recommend DIR. Ayers Hair Vigor."-Mrs.
