An old man of very active physiognomy. answering to the name of Jacob Wilmont, was brought to the police court. His clothes looked as if they might have been bought second-hand in his youthful prime, for they had suffered more from rubs of the world than the proprietor himself? ■What business?’ ‘None: I’m a traveler.' ‘A vagabond, perhaps?' ‘You are not far wrong. Travelers and vagabonds are about the same thing. The difference is that the latter travels without money and the former without brains. ‘Where have you traveled ?’ ‘All over the Continent.' ‘For what purpose ?’ ‘Observation.’ ‘What have yon observed ?' ‘A little to commend, much to censure, ami a- . ■! t • laugh at. •Humph 1 what do you commend ': ‘A handsome w -man *’ ' will “tay at home, an preacher t.i.it will preach ?.■■■• i good writer that will not write too much, and ; a fool that Ins si se ?nough to hold his tongue. •What do you censure ?' ‘A man that marries a girl for her . fine clothes, a youth that studies medi cine while he has the use of his hands, aud the people who will elect a drunk ard to office. ‘What do you 1 rugh at ?' ‘I laugh at a man who expects his I position to command that respect which

his personal qualifications and qualities do not merit.' He was dismissed. A Good Medicine.* Mr. J. Wyatt, of Rockingham N. C., has a little boy, i fire years old. who has been suffering ! with a skin disease, breaking out ail over, ever since he was born. He in-1 forms us, he saw the advertisement of Dr. J. C. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla in the Danville Times, and bought a bottle of it. He administered it to the boy, and i states there has been a wonderful improvement. The breaking out is rapidly disappearing, and the boy's appetite is gosd for the first time.—D<ri»ville, Th., Tines. Ayers Sarsaparilla is sold by all druggists, and is a positive remedy for impurities of the blood, n 0.44 Im. Spread the Good Sews. As a family medicine and tonic, there , is no remedy at present giving such • universal satisfaction, and effecting so j ' many astonishing cures, s Eelectrie Bitters.

The Laboratoray for the manufacture of Ecleetric Bitters is one of Chicago’s greatest enterprises, giving employment to a large numbor of hands. The extensive sale already attained for this wonderful remedy is astonishing.

It restores, aith the gless and freshness of youth, faded or gray, lh;ht, and red hair, to a rich brown, or deep l.< ick, as may be desired. By its use thin I hair is thickened, and baldness often though not always cured. It checks falling of the hair immediately, and causes a new I growth in all cases where the glands are not decayed; while to brashy, weak, or otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitality and strength, and renders it pliable. The Vioob cleanses the scalp, cures and i prevents the formation of dandruff; and, I ■ by its cooling, stimulating, and soothing 1 properties, it heals mist if rmt all of the ! h'.imois and diseases peculiar to the scalp, I keeping it cool, clean, and soft, undey ; which conditions diseases of ■ I hair are impossible. As a Dressing for Ladies' Hair I The Vigor is incomparable. It is color* ■ less, contains neither oil nor dye, and will ; not soil white cambric. It imparts an j agreeable and lasting perfume, and as an . article for the toilet it is economical and I unsurpassed in its excellence. Prepared by Dr. J. C.
