In Brief, and to the Point.

Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered liver is misery. Indigestion is a foe to good nature. The human digestive appaiatus is one of tne most complicated and wonderful things in existence. It is easily put out of order. Greasy food, tou h food, sloppy food, bad aookery, mental worry, late hours, irregular habits, and many other thlng3 which ought not to be, have made the American people a nation of dyspeptics. But Green’s August Flower has done a wonderful work in reforming this sad business and making the American people so healthy that they can enjoy their meals and be happy Kemember:- No happiness wiTnuit health. But Green’s August Flower brings health ami happiness to the dyspeptic. Ask your druggist tor a bottle.

Mr. Randall has des.rved ad tne consideration shown him at the South for his stalwart service in Congress in resisting tyrannical and unconstitutional reconstruction legislation. The people of that section will not turn their backs on a friend because he adheres to a political vagary which does n .t command their approval. His speech in favor of protection was not in the best taste, but it was as harmless as lollipop in the mouth of an infant. —Philadelphia Recoru.

A Correspondence University.

A number of teachers from different parts of the country have formed an organization with the above title, with a view to keeping up their studies, so as not to fall behind the knowledge of their day. These instructors are graduates of all the leading colleges in the United States. Students have found that after leaving the colleges from which they graduated, they quickly lose the power of concentrating their faculties in pursuing new branches of study. The value of an education is the power it gives one to acquire almost any kind of knowledge by close, mental application. The object of the correspondence university is to stimulate them to methodical study, when their evocations are such as might distract them, from continuous intellectual work. It is intended to directly benefit those engaged in professional studies which can be taught by correspondence; graduates domg advanced work: underteachers in schools and colleges; those preparing for college; members of cultivated families who are obliged to live in remote localities; officers and men in the army and navy; persons intending to try any of the civil service examinations ; young men and women engaged in occupations which prevent their attending school, and yet who desire to learn. The fee for four weeks’ tuition in any study of the grade required for admission to a college and in some collegiate studies, is $6.35; in studies of an advanced grade, the fee is $3.25. The list of studies now include agriculture, astronomy, botany, drawing, engineering, engraving, military science, music, physiology, zoology, mathematics, Greek, Latin, English, German, Hebrew, philosophy, history, political science, and law. Mr. Lucien A. Wait, the Secretary, of Ithaca, New York, is the proper person to address for full particulars. —Demorest’s Monthly.

Why Are Ye Bald.

Men become bald! Why? Because they wear close hats and oape. Women are never bald. Sometimes from long continued headaohe, heat in the scalp, bad hair-dressing, and some other cau-es, women may have bare spots here and there; but with all these causes combined, you never see a woman with a bare, shiny, bald head. And you never see a man lose a hair below where the hat touches his skull. It will take it off as clean as you can shave it, down to exactly that line, but never a hair below, not if he has been bald fifty year-.

The common stiff black hat, as impervious as sheet iron, retains the heat 'and. le. p ration. The little hair glands, which 1 ear the same relation to the hair that tin- seed wheat does to the plant above ground, become weak from the presence of the moisture and heat, and finally fail to sustain the hair. It falls out and baldness exists. A fur cap I have kn -wn to produce baldness in a single winter. A man with a good head of hair needs very little protection where the hair grows. Women, who live much within doors, and who are therefore peculiarly susceptible to the cold, oil their hair and plaster it down hard and flat upon their skulls, so as to destroy ninetenths of its power as a non-conductor, have worn for years postage-stamp bonnets stuck on the back of their heads, exnosing the whole tops of their skulls, and then, going out of furnace heated parlors, have ridden for hours in a very cold temperature without taking cold and without complaint. Man, with his greater vigor and habits of outdoor life, and with his hair not plastered down, hut thrown up loose and light, could on doubt go to the north pole, so far as that part of his person is concerned, without any artificial covering. And yet we men wear thick fur caps, and what amounts to sheet iron hats, and do not dare step out in a chilly atmosphere a moment lest we take cold. It is silly, weak, and really a serious error. The Creator knew what he was about when He covered a man’s skull with hair. It has a very important function in protecting the brain. Baldness is a serious misfortune. It will never occur in any man who will wear such a hat as I do—a common black high silk hat with five hundred holes through the top, so that there will be more hole than hat. This costs nothing; the hatter will do it for you when you purchase your hat. If the nap be combed back the wrong way, and if after the holes are made it bo oombed the right way, no one will ever observe the peculiarity. They will wear quite as long—the hatters say considerable longer—because it is dry instead of moist; in brief, there is not a single objection to it, while it will certainly prevent baldness and keep the nap of tne head cool, and prevent muoh headache. While discussing the subject of our hair, I would remark that the back of the neck should be protected in the winter against cold and in the summer against great heat. Nothing can accomplish this uniformly and perfectly but the hair. The custom of shingling off the hair from the back of the neck is unphvsiological.and it should in both sexes be allowed to fall low enough to cover the nape or meet the usual dress.

A Woman’s Discovery. “Another wonderful discovery has been made and that too i y a lady in this county. Disease fastened its clutches upon her and for seven years she withstood its severest tests, hut her vital organs ware undermined and death seemed imminent For three months she coughed incessantly and could not sleep. She bought oi us a botUe of Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption and was so much relieved on taking first dose that she •lept all night and with one bottle has been minculouslv erred. Her name is Mrs Luther Lufz.” Thus write W. C. Hamrick & Co,, of Shelby, N C.—Get a free bottle at F. B- Meyer’s Drug Store. 2;

Life—The Tenacity of Women. It appears from the gathered statistics of the world that women have greater tenacity of life than men. Despite the intellectual and physical strength of the latter, the softer sex endures longest, and will bear pain to which a strong man succumbs. Zymotic diseases are more fatal to males, and more male children die than female. Deverga asserts that the proportion dying suddenly is about 100 women to 780 men; 1,080 men in the United States committed suicide to 285 women. Intemperance, apoplexy, gout, hydro l cephalus, affections of the heart or liver, scrofula, paralysis, are far more fatal to males than females. Pulmonary consumption, on the other hand, is more deadly to the latter. Females in cities are more prone to consumption than in the country. All old countries, not disturbed by emigration, have a majority of females in the population. In royal families statistics show more daughters than sons. Tlia Hebrew women are especially longlived; the colored man exceptionally short-lived. The married state is favorable to prolongation of life among women. Dr. Hough remarks that there are from 2 to 6 per cent, more males born than females, yet there is more than 6 per cent, excess of females in the living population. From which statistics we conclude that all women who can possibly obtain ©ne of these rapidly departing men ought to marry, and that, as men are likely to become so very scarce, they cannot be sufficiently prized by the other rot .'-Modern 4ge.

He had dropped this and was threatening to mortgage the farm and run away with the Widow Taylor,' when his wife appeared at the well and called out: “Deacon, are you down there ?” “Of course I am, and have been for the last three hours!” he yelled. “Well I thought so, but I was busy and couldn’t look. Say, deacon, being as you are down there, you’d better stir around and look for that table-spoon which slipped out of my hand the day Joel Skinner’s barn got afire!”
