Vitality and Color
Are restored to weak and gray hair, by
the use of Ayer’s Hair Vigor. Through
its cleansing and healing properties, this
preparation prevents the accumulation
of Dandruff, and cures all scalp diseases.
"When I commenced using Ayer’s Hair
Vigor my hair wqs weak, thin, and gray.
My scalp was also full of dandruff, and
itched incessantly. Two bottles of the
Vigor removed the dandruff, stopped
the irritation, restored my hair to
its original color, and so.stimulated its
growth that I now have an abundance
of long black hair. The occasional use
of this remedy keeps my hair and scalp
in perfect condition. — Florence J. Gan-
non, 759 Clinton st., Trenton, N. J.
Ayer’s Hair Vigor
is, in every respect, the most cleanly of
all preparations for toilet use.
Prepared by Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co., Lowell, Mass.
Sold by all Druggists and Perfumers. ^

DOOM OF THE ANTELOPE.
The Deadly Work of the Breech Loading
Carbine—Scores of Wounded Animals.
A man of the name of Potter or Porter,
who is a wonderful rifle shot, persuaded
three or four meu to join him in the busi-
ness of killing antelope for their skins.
They selected this crossing place foi an
ambush. In the woods near the summit
of the divide and about a hundred yards
from the game trails Potter’s assistants
were stationed. Potter, who was armed
with a heavy breech loading magazine
rifle, concealed himself in the woods about
half way down the mountains, from which
point he could see the trails for a long
way in both directions. His ambush was
not over seventy yards from the trails.
Suppose it was in the fall. Tn the
autumn the antelope swarm out of the
park. Band after hand follow their lead-
ers over the hill. Every animal is anxious
to get out of the park before the winter’s
Arctic like storms begin to sweep across
the open highland grazing ground. When
the hands had passed beyond the ambus
cade the men opened fire on the leaders
of the hand, killing one here, breaking
the leg of another there, and shooting
others through the bowels. The herd
scattered and ran down the trails in be-
wildered confusion. Then Porter opened
fire on them. They did not know where
to go. Behind them rifles cracked. Be-
fore them a rifle cracked. They hesitated.
They stood still. Their comrades’ -were
falling dead among them. Others were
wounded and cried aloud. They ran in
circles on the hillside.
Porter fired steadily and accurately at
the frightened animals. When th&t herd
had drifted past him he refilled tlie"empty
magifcine of his rifle and opened another
box of cartridges and impatiently waited
for another herd to cross the divide.
When the party’s cartridges were ex-
hausted the men skinned the dead ani-
mals. The meat was left on the ground
for wolves and other carnivorous animals
to eat. Porter boasted to me that he had
killed 140 antelope in one day at the trails
of this crossing place. One hundred and
forty killed means about 250 wounded
and not secured. It means scores of ani-
mals wandering over the plains with
broken legs trailing behind them, other
scores with their bowels streaming ribbon
like from their wounds, and catching on
the sage brush as they sought to hide from
wolves which they knew were on their
bloody trails. I looked at Porter in silent
hoijror as I estimated the suffering he had
caused.—Frank Wilkeson in New York
Sun.
Nurse—Oi’ll have to lave yez mum.
Lady—Why so Mary Ann?
Nurse—Well mum the baby’s gett’in’
old.
Lady—I don’t see what difference that
makes.
Nurse—Why ye see mum the baby’s
gittin’ to be a blonde an’ Oi’m a brunette.
We don’t look well together. Yez’ll have
to dye the baby mum or I must lave yez.
—Chicago Rambler.
The California Girl.
The California girl of the average type
is not pretty. The main difficulty with
which the women of the Pacific slope
must contend is the seeming impossibility
of bringing out or preserving a good com-
plexion. The fierce winds which blow
from the Pacific or from the mountains
combined with a naturally dry atmosphere
are enough to ruin the best of complexions
in a short time.—New York World.
What Might Have Been.
A fair and buxom widow, who had
buried three husbands,recently went with
a genteman who in his younger years had
paid her marked attention to inspect the
graves of her dear departed. After con-
templating them in a mournful silence
she murmured to her companion: “Ah,
James, you might have been in that row
now if you had only had a little more
courage.”—St. Albans Messenger.
Congressman Lawler’s Philosophy.
Mr. Lawler is a philosopher. It was he
who originated the famous saying worthy
of Seneca’s morals or “Poor Richard’s
Almanac.” Said Mr. Lawler:
“Gentlemen, you should not get impa-
tient with nature. All things equalize
themselves—the rich man gets his ice in
summer and the poor man gets his in
in winter.” ----*-= "---------

The Dwarf Eucalyptus.
Vast arid and almost rainless tracts in
Australia, according to Mr. Joseph
Bosisto, of Victoria, are thickly cov-
ered with a dwarf eucalyptus barely
eight feet high. The stem of this shrub
contains half a pint of water, which bash-
men quickly obtain, yet inexperienced
travelers in these regions often die of
thirst.—Arkansaw Traveler.
A College War Whoop.
It is given out that the freshmen of the
University of Pennslyvania have adopted
a class yell in the words and figures that
follow, to wit: “M-D-CCC-XC of P.— Rah-
rah -fall!’ ’ This is undeniably magnificent,
bu% it lacks the sturdy simplicity of the
war whoop which was adopted by the
gentlemen who preceded us on this conti-
nent.—New York Tribune.
National Bank Stock.
According to the report of the con-
troller of the currency there are 2,858
national hanks in this country, the com-
bined capital of which is represented by
7,000,000 shares, and said shares are in
possession of 223,000 persons, more than
one-half of whom own only ten shares or
less apiece.—Chicago Herald.
A Long Needed Boy.
A Minnesota exchange speaks of a boy
whose right hand is badly deformed. It
is nearly all forefinger, that member being
slender, muscular, and about nine inches
in length. For long and weary years the
world has been waiting for such a boy as
this. He could clean the lamp chimneys
of an entire township.—Chicago Tribune.
A Grand Old World.
The Rev. Dr. Talmage said in a late in-
terview: “The summary of the whole
thing is that this is a grand old world,
and I want to stay in it as long as I can.
I would not want to get out of it at all if
1 did not believe that there was a grander
one. This is a good enough one for me
for a long time yet.”
At a Bargain.
Bagley—What in the world have you
got there? Bailey—A dog collar. Isn’t
it a pretty one? Got it for $7. I tell you
it’s a bargain. Bagley—But you haven’t
got a dog, have you? Bailey—No, but I
know where I can get one for 50 cents.—

GENUINE DIAMONDS FOUND IN
CANS OF TEA AND COFFEE.
The San Francisco Tea Company, of San Fran-
cisco, California, has opened a branch store at No.
173 Market street, Galveston, Texas. Their Teas
and Coffees are packed in paper cans. The Tea,
can and contents weigh about one and a half pounds
—the Coffee, can and contents weighing about three
pounds.
With every can sold a souvenir is presented in the
can—such as solid Gold, Silver and Nickle Watches,
also genuine Diamonds, Rubies, Sapphires, Emer-
alds, Pearls and other jewelry of less value.
This company has adopted this jpethod of adver-
tising their choice brands of Tea and Coffee, hut
after twenty days they will he sold only on their
merits, at the same puce, same quality, same quan-
tity, but without the souvenir, the goods being
worth the [price asked at a fair valuation, w thout
any regard to the souvenirs.
This company has established forty-two branches
in various parts of the United States, none of which
are now giving the souvenirs in the cans of Tea and
Coffee, as the time has expired, yet each agent has a
large and rapidly growing trade, as the superior
quality of their goods become known.
