From a popular Hardware Man. INDIANAPOLIS, July 5,18bi. Messrs. A. Klefer St Co.: Gentlemen-1 have an antipathy to all so-called hair restorers. A few weeks ago, however, giving way to the persistent entreaties of a friend, I tried Lyon's Kozothlum. I ft™ delighted with it, My hair, which was very gray, has been restored to its former natural color. It is no longer harsh and coarse, but Is smooth, glossy and Uealthnl. and my scalp feels better than it has for years. I cheerfully bear testimony to the fact that Lyon's Kozothlum is a true restorer of the health and natural color to the hair, and heartily endorse it. It is not only a cleanly remedy, but it is an admirable hair dressing, and now that I know Its virtues I would not, under any otroumstances, be without it.

Yours very truly,

W. F. QUIGLEY.

LYON'S KOZOTHUJM.

Tammany committe, September 8 1884

It ought not to go below 15,000.

Mr. Hendricks has had published in Ohio a certificate of character, so to speak. The publication of the speech he delivered in the senate had alarmed the Germans and certificates from German Democrats in Lafayette, Evansville and Indianapolis were secured in which it was stated that Mr. Hendricks was "very liberal" in his views. Yet he did sign the Baxter bill, and he did say in the senate: "I am perfectly willing to vote for this or any other bill short of putting to death a man who shall take a drink of liquor would not go that far."

The New York Times is giving a report of Mr. Abram S. Hewitt's speech at the Democratic meeting in New York said:

In his sneech opening the meeting, he said that the people of this state had once chosen Cleveland tobe their ruler rather than the candidate of Washington and he ventured the pre diction that the people would again choose him to be their ruler. Mr. Hewitt then arraigned the Republican party for all its sins, great and small, remembered and forgotten, and then launched into a defence of free trade, "And then launched into a defence of free trade." That was the main part of his speech that is the chief issue of the Democratic campaign. It lies at the foundation of all and it is, through sometimes skilfully obscured, the impelling motive of the opposition of the Independents and Democrats alike.

The Chicago Inter-Ocean in a very compact form thus reviewB the probabilities in Ohio:

Ohio was a Republican state By majority of 34,208 over all opposition in 1872, a majoiity of 2,747 in 1876, and a majority of 21,155 in 1880. The Republican majority in October, 1872, was 14,055 in October, 1886, it was 4,773 and in October, 1880^ it^ags B^V^aT^yTof thethree presidential yearq is 9,400.

In 1872 theheayy Republican majority was when the Democrats nominated a candidate for president at the dictation of the liberal Republicans, In 1873, when the Democrats nominated tbat old representative Democrat, William Allen, for governor, they carried the state by tbe small plurality of 808. But the entire opposition vote was 223,747, and as a matter of fact the Democrats were in a minority by 9,122. In 1874, the Democratic candidate for secretary of state was elected by a plurality of 17,202, and by a majority of 9,387.

The state, on the heavy vote of that year, Beemcd Democratic, but in 1875 the Republicans made a strong effort and elected Hayes governor by a plurality of 7,516, and an absolute majority of 2,747. In 1878 the Republicans elected their candidate, but did not have a majority over all opposition In 1879, however, the Republicans had a plurality of 17,000, and a positive majority of 3,352.

In the tidal wave of 1882 Ohio again fell out of Republican line, the Democrats having a majority of 1,559. In 1883, in a total vote of 718,278, the Democrats had a majority of 1,318. This year, with national issues in the foreground, the Btate ought to be Republican by as large a majority as that given in 1876. The possibility is that it will reach the figures of 1880, but the probabilities favor what may be called the average Republican majority of 9,400. A majority as large as that of Hayes in 1876 will be a great victory a majority as large as that given in October, 1880, will marks great reaction.

Jee Howard in Philadelphia Press.

Take my friend Chanfrau, whom I have known for twenty years, and always liked and always admired, as a type of man born in this country of poor, humble parentage, with no start in life until accident opened a door. Through that passage he jumped quickly, and was never pulled back, Sixty-five years of age, worth all the way from $300,000 to $500,000, he was working like a car horse. A fresh season wasajust begun, weeks and weeks of toil and labor for him, days of travel, eveningB of exertion, nights of com parative unrest were to be his portion.

Why? Not for more money. He was rich enough. He loved to work. We all love to work. That is the great American trait, work and love of work. It isn't the money. If it was the money we were after wouldn't we hoard it? Wouldn't our savings banks have greater assets than they have to-day? Work was Chanfrau's recreations Work was. his pleasure. Work was his delight. Had any one suggested to him the desirability of a trip to Europe, with a year among the refinements and delights of the continent, he would have laughed the idea to scorn. Why? To make more money? Not at all. Because he loved to work, he liked to see his name on the big bills, he liked to hear the cheering aplause of his friends in the audience, le liked to believe that he was still the people's favorite.

Men of High Standing.

Troy Times.

Chang, the Chinese giant, is by no means as tall as many celebrated giants of other nations. Chang is seven feet, six inches in height. Patrick Cotter, the Irish giant, was eight feet seven and one-half inches. He died in 1802. Eleazer, the Jewish giant, mentioned by Josephus as living in the reign of Vitellius, was ten feet six inches in height. William Evans, porter to Charles I., was eight feet tall. He died in 1632. Goliath, whom David slew, was nine feet four indies in height. Loushkin, dram'major of the Russian Imperial Guards, was eight feet five inches in height. Maximums, the Roman Emperor from 2% to 238 V. D., was tight feet six inches tall.

John Middleton,who was bora atHale, in Lancashire, in the reign of James I., was nine feet six inches in height. His hand was seventeen indies long and eight and one-half inches broad. A human skeleton eight feet six inches in height is preserved in the museum of Trinity College. Dublin.

A Peculiar Hebrew Tribe. Paris Gaulois. Between Damascus and Jerusalem is tribe of about three thousand Hebrews, which has been there probably since the beginning of the Christian era. They have neither city nor town they live in camps. The temple is represented by a more spacious tent. They have never admitted among them person of different race or religion. Their ordinary language is Hebrew. In their relations with others they speak Arabian. These relations, however, are very few{ for they have remained, lite the primitive races, exclusively tillers of the soil and warriors. They cultivate the ground, armed from head to foot, always ready to defend their portion of earth, from which, with gnat difficulty, they derive a mere sustenance. They live on little and are content to thus live in this sort of native country which they have occupied tor centuries.

Another Lie Nailed.

Lafayette Courier. There probably never was a campaign in which such an abundance of fearless lying was indulged in as in this one. The despairing Democracy, driven to the last ditch, put on all sorts of garments to conceal their proportions. The Indianapolis Sentinel leads the van in this sort of warfare. Last week that organ contained the following:

A club of 400 German lUpablicana at Galesborg, OL, has left the Buspnhlican party and come over to Cleveland and Hendricks, Hanisen and Seiter. Thua it goes throughout Illinois.

Now Galesbure iB the old home of W. F. Bechtel, of this city, and when this statement caught his eye, he was anxious to know what had occasionod the wonderful change of hoart on the part of so many of nia former townsmen and possible acquaintances. He wrote the chairman or the Galesburg Republican central committee, enclosing the above statement in the following communication:

Lrnixm, Ind., Oct. 1, 1884.

P. a. Ait, STQ., GoUtintrg,HL Dui ga: How much if any truth is there in itT Pleass angirer privately or through the columns of your local Republican paper, aid oblige. Yours respectfully,

W. F. BBCBI*L.

To this he received the following answer: "OUHBOM, I1L, October 6,1884

W. V. Bechtel, Esq., Lafayette, Ind. "PIAE Sim: The above squib is clean cut oatof whole cloth. Enclosed is a full reply. Yours, truly,

PHILIP BIDNSY POST."

The enclosed reply referred to by Mr. Post is aclipping from the'Republican Register, of Galesbuiv, in which the statement contained in the Sentinel is answered as followed:

In reply we state as follows, our information being «f the most reliable charsottt: 1. The German yotang population ot Qiiw burg nnm bars 112. 2. There are but two Germans here who voted for Garfield in 1880, who will vote for Cleveland in November.

We presume this is a sample of the liee told in the Democratic newspapers of the German accessions to their party. Unfortunately for t.h«m| thi« time they located the lie at a city

where there is not a large German populate and it is easily detected and corrected.

The lie put in circulation by the Sentinel and so neatly nailed by the Register, is entirely in keeping with the methods of the Democracy, and is on a par with the one laid bare in the Courier on September 15th, which lie was to the effect that with 245 German voters in Lafayette an attempt to organise a German Blaine ana Logan club was a fizzle, there being only fourteen signers, all the rest refusing to sign, as they were going to vote for Cleveland and Hendricks. Mr. Neubauer, president of the German club, exposed this falsehood in a communication published in the Courier, showing that Bince Grant's first race there had never been 245 German voters here that the German Blaine and Logan club numbered 173 members, and that the secretary had the names of fifteen applicants for_admission. So the good work goes right along, and the air is full of exhalations from the distorted imaginations of the Democratic press and the paid claquers of that party. But it is no use, gentlemen, your goose is already cooked

Mrs. Burnett's Boys.

Washington Letter.

Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett, the #ell-known authoress, is one of these exceptions, and her craze for the picturesque extends not only to her inanimate surroundings, but to her two boys. A lady who has recently

nJI

«j —o o*v authority for the statements that they are very handsome boys. Their proud mother is quite aware of their beauty by keeping them dressed in a most becoming fashion She taught them to pose in an artistic manner. If the bell rings and visitor is announced, Mrs. Burnett turns to her sons and says: "Take your positions." Immediately the well-trained boys fall into the poses best Buited to their dress and beauty. The older one will lean his elbow on the corner of the mantle-piece and rest his head upon his shapely hand, while the younger will stretch himself in graceful attitude on the heavy fur rug in front of the fire. The visitor enters and cannot fail to be struck by the picturesque beauty of the scene and oes away, her mind full of admiraon for her friends children, and feels almost ashamed ol! the general roughness of her own boys at home, whom she is much more likely to jQnd gliding down the banisters, sitting on the feneeor playing ball than in poses which would gladden an artist's heart. Of course the attitudes given above are only those for winter use. For summer an entire! different set prevail, but they are quite as effective, and, indeed, they are ihe pride of Mrs. Burnett's heart. What the result of this novel mode of education will be is a question which agitates many of the writer's friends, but they will soon have the opportunity of seeing, for a boy who can lean an ilbow on the mantelpiece cannot be so very small.

Hi How Scrip is Redeemed. Boston Journal. The scrupulous exactness with which the work in the redemption bureau is carried on was illustrated by a case told by a gentleman who wished to redeem four pieces of scrip denomination. Two of the pieces were quarters, the third a 10-cent scrip, and tbe fourth, much worn, was orisina] 5-cent scrip. A week or ten days later he received a registered letter at the postoffice, and found a huge envelope with three red seals. In the envelope were several documents giving extracts of the law regarding fractional currency, and stating that three or four of the pieces sent were counterfeit In one corner of the big envelope was a smaller one, and in that was a bright 5-cent nickel sent in return for the scrip.

Boisiaa Marriage Customs. Cologne Gazette, -. What our travelers report of tbe method employed to select wives for the csar affords farther illustration of the backwardness of Muscovite civiliin that country. Instead of seeking suitable with foreign courts, or among the noble families at home, the custom was, when a csar was to be married, to issue a proclamation inviting all marriageable girls of good MsitkHt and tolerable pretensions1 to waatr to present themselves at Moscow on a given day for his ™aj«aty inspection, and after a careful scrutiny of the hundreds of fair candidates for the great matrimonial

prise, the royal choice was announced to the nation.

The Chinese Baby's First Shave. Portland Oregonian. When a Chinese boy is one month old his head is shaved and a bladder drawn over it, and as his head grows the bladder berate and the cue moats forth. The first shave is made the occasion of a magnificent banquet and the guests are expected to make the host a handsome present in coin for the newly shaven baby, with which A bank account is started to his credit.

Two Dangerous Reasons.

Spring and fall are times when so many people get sick. The changes in the weather are severe on feeble "persons, and even those naturally strong are apt, as they sey, "to be feeling miserable." Then they are just in condi tion to be struck down with some kind of fever. A bottle or two of Parker's Tonic will invigorate the digestion, put the liver, kidneys and blood in perfect order, and prevent more seriouB attacks. Why suffer, and perhaps die, when so simple a medicine will save you? Good for bath sexes and all ages.

A POSITIVE CURE For Every Form of Skin and Blood Disease, from Pimples to Scrofula.

I have had the Psoriasis for nine months. About five months ago I applied to a doctor near Boston, who helped me, but unfortunately I had to leave, but continued taking his medicine for nearly three montns, but the disease did not leave. I saw Mr. Carpenter's letter In the Philadelphia Record, and his case perfectly described mine. 1 tried tbe CtmcuKA RXMBDIJSS, using two bottles of RESOLVENT, and CuTiCtrRA and ODTICUBA. SOAP in proportion, and call myself completely cured.
