SHKLBYVILLB, Jane 12,1884. Messrs. A. Kiefer & Co., Gentlemen: —A year or two since I began to lone my hair. A prescription from a barber temporarily checked it, but after a brief time it again became to come out oy handfuls, and a prescription by a physician again checked it.

laBt

winter and spring

again became dry and barsh, and finally left the top of my head bare. My attention was called to your Cozothium. I was afraid to nse it, dreading sulphur, lead or nitrate of Bilver. But matters were growing worse daily, and the fly season was close at hand, so I procured a bottle of Kozothium. The result is an excellent crop of hair, and strange to say of original color, soft and pliable, a clean scalp and no irritation, and this on the nead of a man over fifty. I tiave no hesitation in saying it is the best hair restorer extant, and from trial jo not believe there is a particle anything dangerous in it. Yours truly, REV. B. MILLS

A Chinese pamphlet against Europeans has been published *n

w—°

Kong. It asserts »iat the Europeans aire not human beings at all, but wild animals descended from monkeys. They worship neither the heavens nor the earth. They do not honor their parents nor ancestors. They come into China pretending to preach a religion which they do not practice themselves, and forcibly introduce vice and crime into this country.

Hon. Emory Beauchamp, in reply to un inquiry by the secretary of the board of trade, has written an interesting letter in regard to Swiss cattle, which he thinks might be introduced here with great profit. They are said to be equal or superior to the Jersey for milk and butter. Mr. Beauchamp knows of a Swiss farmer, with a large family of children, experienced in the care of cattle and dairying, who would emigrate and bring some of his own cattle, the Braunvich, with him if a favorable opening should be offered to him. Mr. Holm&n, who has seen the cattle, says they are simi! in color to the Jersey cattle, but mucb larger, resembling also the Holland cattle, which are well known to be valuable for their yield of milk and butter.

The basis of rates for advertising in a newspaper is circulation. The EX press has not raised its rates for a year, but in that timo the circulation has greatly increased. Beginning with November 1st new and higher rates will go into effect. Local notices that heretofore have been charged at ten cents a line for the first insertion and five cents for each subsequent inser tion will be charged at the rate of fifteen and ten cents. This ratio of ratee will be made on all space advertis mg.

The Express is frequently asked to make its charges the same as prevail with other newspapers in this city, This must not be expected. When the Express fixes & price it is for value given, and all advertisers are requested to examine our books to the end that they may be satisfied on this point. Were the Express to fix its rates on a basis of comparative circulation with other newsapers it would make a greater increase than announced.

It has been discovered at this late day what causes the famines in India. Though incredible at first glance, familiarity with the idea makes it reasonable. It is the wild and preda tory goat. When we consider the care with which a few specimens of this interesting ruminant can clear an outlot of old boots, tin cans and the usual debris of quarters devoted to rubbish, it is not hard to believe that fifteen or twenty thousand goats roaming around the headwaters of Indian streams, nipping the tops from every sprouting sapling, I would soon reduce a wooded region to bleak desert where the sources of the streams would soon dry up. This $ is what is the matter with the Indian goat. To support the theory it is claimed that the Island of St. Helena'

-"SI,*? STES5FR^N

was once quite paradisaical, bat the introduction of the goat changed it to a dreary waste.

The Business men's meeting in New York city Monday night iB described by a special to be the greatest uprising of business men ever witnessed in America, surpassing even the memorable Garfield meeting of 1880 in numbers and enthusiasm. 10,000 solid business men, representing a strikingly large per cent, of the aggregate wealth of North America, marched in the procession. The coffee, cotton, produce, maritime, petroleum, mercantile. New York mining stock, and National petroleum exchanges were represented. The Dry Goods association had nearly 4,000 men in line. Secretary Giesham was introduced. Speeches were made from three stands. The other speakers weie Senators Hale and Hawley, Sherman Rogers, Geoige S. Boutwell, Stewart Woodford, and Alexander Sullivan.

Governor Cleveland, while in New York, was presented with an old-fash-ioned bulls-eye. watch, made at a factory in Norwich, sixty years ago, where Mr. Cleveland's grandfather was then an apprentice. A certificate, signed by the grandsire is between the cases. This is interesting and may furnish Governor Cleveland with a text. While he holds the ancient bulls eve in one hand and in the other an elegant and accurate Waterbury watch, sold everywhere for $3.60, except when presented by enterprising clothiers to purchasers of $12 suits, he can call attention to the great industry fostered by a protective tariff. An advertisement in an old Express offered ordinary clocks for $30 each, but to-day, when the duty is 35 per cent, good clocks are sold as low as $1. In face of the duty and competition of the cheap, skilled labor of the Swiss and Germans we expected $1,316,086 worth of clocks. The increase in watch manufacturing is remarkable. We imported $2,500,000 in watches and materials last year, on which the duty was 25 per cent., but in this country nine factories were making 3,650 watches a day, amounting to about $16,000,000 for the year. A good watch is now sold for less than a poor one once cost. American watches are sold in all countries and seriously impair the business of the Swiss, once the watch-makers for the world. The manufacture of machine-made watches employs, pleasantly and remuneratively, directly or indirectly, about 100,000 people. Americans make nearly half the watches produced. The inven tive genius of our mechanics and their readiness to adopt labor and time saving machinery account for thesupe riority and cheapness of their produc tions, even with improved machinery the competition of the cheap, skilled European labor has been keen. In time American methods will be com ^—r-- —p«of) and quality will depend upon the prices of labor in this and the old country. The protection to home industries cannot be dispensed with now when so much of the foreign work is hand-work, and still less when it becomes machine-work. When watches are made by machinery in Europe more generally than now, there will be still greater anxiety to sell them here. We are now importing $3,500,000, which is just that much too much, and the day will come when the watch importers' occupation will be gone.

Statistics show that the production of wool increased in this country from 60,000,OOOpounds in 1859 to 290,000,000 pounds in 1882, and that the consumption increased from 65,749,635 pounds in 1860 to 356,500,000 pounds in 1882.

The point appears that our manufac turers are able to consume all the wool produced in this country in addition to 70,000,000 pounds imported. This amount imported represents just so much business for our sheep-growers to obtain, and that they ought to have. It iB on such points as these that we differ from foreign traders, who have an idea that they are entitled to fur nish all our wool, as well as anything else that happens to pay.

"The play was—let me 'see. Too bad! I forgot to look at the programme." "You don't know what the play was?" "No. You see, I was with a theater party."

Yee, siree but I'd veto any bill to lower tolls on the Erie can*l." So you think American manufactures need protection?" "Well, I don't know about that. 8eems to me moat of 'em are pretty well insured now, but still I don't mind signing bills for new fire oompanies it the people want 'am."

An Editors's Blonder.

From the Pioneer. She wasdressed in conventional black, with gold-rimmed eye-glasses poised gracefully on a clever little nose. She was thin and comely and wore a nam ber five shoe. A handsome manteau hung gracefully over her left arm, and swinging on her right arm was the regulation case containing a copy of the "best encyclopedia in the world." She had been on her claim all summer, reducing the virgin soil to cultivation and doing the granger act in thoroagh Dakota s^le. She was, however, minus the leather girdle with a brace of Colt's, and wore around her dainty waist a neat strip of Russian leather, to which was attached a carry.all portir.onnaie. She pulled the latch-string of the editorial sanctam and entered with bouquet of killing smiles upon her phiz., and a mischievous sparkle of business in her eye. "Is the editor within?" "Yea—no—that is he is sometimes— I mean—do you wish to speak to the editor?"

This was too much for the little charmer, and she burst into a merry ripple of laagbter that pat life among the old exchanges on the floor and caused the paste-pot and scissors to dance a hasty racquet across the editor's table. "Oh, no," she said, after things again assumed their normal condition, "1 only dropped in to pay my last month's subscription^ and I beg your pardon for not calling earlier. My hasband has been oat of town."

She placed the change on the table, and about this time the editor was too full for utterance and sought to bide himself under a pile of exchanges as his fair and dauntless visitor disappeared through the door, "How John will laugh when I tell him of this—a poem on autumn leaves, or, do I wish to see the society editor ?—welt, ha 1 ha! Good-bye, Mr. Editor."

BUSINESS MEN SPEAK.

Third: The Democatic damand for a change in the administration of the national govern ment is based upon no argument whioh com mends it to us as business men.

We are once more a united people. We are at peace with the entire world and desire to remain so.

Our products of the soil and of the land already find purchasers in foreign lands, and those markets are constantly increasing.

Oar financial system is sound, and our currency is simple. Our national credit is second to that of no other nation on the planet.

Our civil service is based upon fitness and emrit, and avails itself of the labor of those gallant soldiers and sailors who served honorably during the war for the union.

Our lives and our liberties are protected, be we natives or adopted citizens, whether we are at home or abroad, and we worship God according to the dictates of our consciences, and in conformity with 'Our respective creeds.

There are blessings resulting in a great measure from the patriotism aiid statesmanship wbich has moulded the legislation of the last quarter of a century and we here solemnly declare we will not imperil them by restoring to power a party which boasts the solid Bapport of sixteen States that rebelled against the gov-

8r?£5S5ii

cast 152 votes in the house of repre

sentatives against protection to Americau labor Whioh periodically suggests startling changes in our financial policy.

Which lias views upon the sanctity of the national debt, which are prejudiced by knowledges that it was created to suppress Democratic rebellion and

Which knows no better form of civil service than promptly discharging the present govern ment employes, soldiers and sailors included, and substituting for them an army of men in exerpienced in everything but partisan politics.

Fourth:—We continue to view with alarm and regret the fact that the great commercial issues now before the people do not sufficiently interest our fellow citizens of the Southern states, to justify them in an effort to break the phalanx of 183 electoral votes which area perpetual menace to the north of a "solid south," thus fostering political establishment and keeping unhealed the wounds of civil war, Until a disposition is manifested by our southern brethern to discuss living issues, rather than to revive those which have been determined by war (to the great glory of our common country) it would be madness to try the experiment of Democratic rule.

Fifth:—Whatever may have been our views or preference heretofore, we now recognise the wisdom of the Chicago convention in nominating for preeidency our late secretary of state, jjG. Blaine. acted by popular demand and not by any machine chosen for merit and not for expediency, he has developed such candor, seal and intrepidity as endears him to a people who always respect frankness, honor genius and love courage his utteranoee have been unmistakably emphatic on the great question of the hour, and he has lived to experience the inevitable reaction which follows sourilous and mendacious slander. Setting aside the issues of the campaign, and considering only the character of the candidates for the great office of president of the United States,

James G. Blaine

stands to-day "Hyperion to a Satyr." Sixth "The nomination of General John Logan for the vice-presidency fulfils and perpetuates the business men of New York that the services of the gallant men who risked their lives to avert disruption of the Union, ahaU not in oar day and generation be forgotten, if we can help it. And, moreover, it assures us that the loss of our president (which God forbid) would place in the executive ohair a man well fitted for the emergency, with positive convictions openly and repeatedly expressed whereas the death of Mr. President Cleveland would remand the executive branch of the government to one who ir the hour of peril never uttered a word, indulged a hope, or breathed a prayer for the safety of the Union.

Lastly: We desire most earnestly and cinoerelyto plaoe upon record in this public manner «ind in the presence of thiB immense concourse of citizens of this metropolis, our admiration of and gratitude for the dignified administration of the office of president of the United Statee, by our fellow-townsman Chester A. Arthur.

We wish him all the happiness that a consciousness of having discharged his duties with fidelity and to the satisfaction of the entire people will naturally bring to him, and we believe the day will come when the page he written ill tive history of his country will be supplemented by another, recording the fact that the people had not yet availed themselves of the measure of his usefulness.

J~ iSX Reversed Things. A newly-married New Yore laay rebaked her husbaad in the following terms: "Before we were married, George, yoa ased to call and see me every evening. Npw yoa go off to yoar club and get drank. Yoa have entirely a different mode of life now from what yon had then." "No, Emiline, my mode of life is not changed, only I have reversed things. Before I was married I used to call aronnd in the evening to see yoa and then I went to the club-room and got tight, but now I go to the club-room first, and get tight, and then come to see you." mm

Mrs. Belva Lock wood will soon have to begin nailing campaign lies, jast like the men. They Bay now that she was trying a case before Chief Justice Carter the other day, and got in a legal snarl. "I should like," she said, in a nettled voice, "to have your honor advise me what to do next." Slowly, and with a stammer the witty justice replied: "Mrs. Lockwood the c-c-oart would advise yon em-em-ploy a lawyer." iy*.

LITERARY NOTICES

THE VIKING

Resolutions Adopted by a Mass Meeting of Business Hen at the Treasury Build.

loK

N*w York. October SO.

The business men of New York in mass meeting assembled, on the eve of an important presidential election, address themse}y$£.U), th$,ir fellow-citizens as follows:

First: ^The question to which every elector is aaked to give careful and intelligent thought, is whetker American industries and honest toi, shall be protected by the national government against the competition of foreign cheap labor? Upon this subject one of the great political parties has expressed itself in positive terms, and has placed in nomination gentlemen who have both the brains to formulate their views, and the courage to utter them while the other comforts itself alike upon the ambiquity of its oonfession of faith, and the enforced silence of its ohosen apostle.

Second: Apaxt from their platforms'the position of the two political parties has been well ascertained by their recent action in congress. The Democratic party defeated an avowed protectionist and elected a pronounced free-trader to the speakership, and he promptly assigned another free-trader to the chairmanship of the ways and means committee, who in turn introduced a free trade measure whioh paralysed enterprise, impaired commercial ana financial confidence aha unsettled values thus threatening capital and labor alike. And but for the courage and wisdom of the Republicans a statute would have been enaoted whioh would have necessarily reduced the salaries and wages of our employes who have assembled with us to-day to voioe their, indignation that their representatives should encourage foreign handicraft to the exclusion of that of tie American workman.
