Half ’ a Bottle Cured Me “About thirty yean ago 1 bought a bottle of Ayer’s Hair Vigor to stop my hair from falling out. One-half a bottle cured me. A few days ago my hair began to fall out again. I went to the medicine shelf and found the old bottle of Hair Vigor just as good as when I bought it."— J. C. Baxter, Braidwood, 111., Sept. 27, 1899. Keeps Thirty Years Ayer’s Hair Vigor is certainly the most economical preparation of its kind on the market. A little of it goes a long way. And then, what you don’t need now you can use some other time just as well. It doesn’t take much oi it to stop falling of the hair, restore color to gray hair, cure dandruff, and keep the hair soft and glossy. There’s a great deal of good and an immense amount of satisfaction in every bottle of it. SI.H a battle. All dranists. Write the Doctor It you do not obtain all the benefits yon desire from the use of the Vigor, write the Doctor about it. Address, Dr. J. C. Aveb, Lowell, Mass.

Our Increased Trade with China.

England can no longer compete with ns in the shipment of many products to China. This is merely natural. The best wins in everything. For a like reason, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters has for fifty years acknowledged no superior, because there is nothing better to cure constipation, indigestion, dyspepsia and biliousness.

PEACE PACT IS MADE.

KENTUCKY POLITICAL LEADERS REACH AN AGREEMENT. Acting Governor Taylor Abdicates in Favor of Beckham on Condition that a New Election Statute Be Enacted— Republicans Make Concession. The peace conference held at the Galt House in Ixniisville Monday night between seven representatives of the Republican party and seven representatives of the Democratic party resulted in the unanimous signing of an agreement embodying seven specific propositions for the settlement of the party differences which have brought about two State governments in Kentucky. This agreement is in substance as follows: 1. That if the General Assembly in Joint session shall adopt a resolution ratifying their recent action adopting the contest reports seating Goebel and Beckham the contestees, W. 8. Taylor and John Marshall shall submit without further protest. 2. That all parties shall unite In an effort to bring about such a modification of the election law as will provide for non-partisan election boards and insure free and fair elections. 3. That the conditions shall remain in status quo until Monday, the General Assembly meeting and adjourning from day to day until that time. 4. That nothing shall be done to hinder or prevent a Joint session of the General Assembly for taking action on the ratification resolution. 5. That the State Contest Board shall meet and adjour ■ from day to day until Tuesday without taking any action on the contests

for miner State offices. Tins postponement is suggested in order that the action of the General Assembly on the ratification resolution may be taken first. 7 6. That the State troops shall be removed from the State capital at once, though with all necessary precaution for the public safety. This matter is to be under the direction of Gen. L>an Lindsay, of Frankfort. ”. That the Republican officials and officers of the State guard shall have immunity from charges of treason, usurpation, court martial or any other such offenses. The agreement was signed by the following: Republicans—John Marshall. Judge John W. Barr. Gen. Dau Lindsay, T. L. Edelen, Dr. T. H. Banter, David W. Fairleigh ami T. Ballard. Democrats—J. <’. S. Blackburn. J. ('. W. Beckham, Sum .1. Shackelford, Frey Woodson. James B. McCreary, Phil Thompson and Robert J. Breckenridge. The news of the agreement was received with great relief in Frankfort. The strain of the previous ten days had been great and any lessening of tension was most welcome.

SETTLE BIG CANAL QUESTION.

Agreement Between Great Britain and America Reached. Another step in the construction of the Nicaraguan canal was taken Monday, when Lord I’auncefote and Secretary Hay signed a treaty revoking that portion of the Clayton-Bulwer convention which prohibits the Government of the United States from constructing a waterway across tly* isthmus. The agreement provides in substance as follows: The United States ia. granted the right to build and control exclusively the waterway joining the Atlaatic and Pacific, and the provision of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty providing for joint control is annulled. Neutrality of the canal is pledged by both of the signatory parties, both in times of peace and war. The great maritime nations will be asked to pledge themselves to the preservance of the canal’s neutrality.

The present agreement was reached practically a year ago, when it seemed certain that the private corporations that had concessions for the canal would be compelled to relinquish the enterprise and leave ihe work to be done by the Government. It was not, however, formulated until a few days ago, since, the pending bills-were reported from the Senate and House committees. Great Britain yields its claims under the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, provided the United States will guarantee* the neutrality and the protection of traffic upon the canal. Here are a few interesting facts about the Nicaraguan canal concerning which the British-American treaty was signed at the State Department. The figures are gathered from various official reports and from private sources of information: Total cost of canal (estimated.. .$125,000,000 Money already spent by Maritime Canal Company 85,136,428 Total distance from ocean to , ocean 169.4 mileS Length of proposed ditch 27 miles Length of natural waterway.... 142 miles Proposed width of canal 300 feet Proposed depth of cana1........ 30 feet Quantity of earth to .be excavated and dredged 152.781.270 cubic yds Excavation proper 20.907,006 cubic yds Highest elevation of qanal from level of sea -. 110 feet Distance saved for ships going from coast to coast 8,000 mile* Time saved (at war ship Oregon's rate of sailing) 42 days Increase in ocean traffic since 1881 - 16,000,000 tons Distance from New York 2,000 miles Distance from San Francisco.... 2,700 railed Distance from Philippine IsUhds 9,000 miles Distance from Honoluln 4,210 miles Time required for construction.. six years

Trade and Industry.

Last year’s sales of German toys in Great Britain amounted to over $11,500,600. Vienna’s street railway system cost $40,000,000 and it is estimated that it will pay for itself, in ten years. The corporation of West Ham. England, will spend $8,450,000 for workingmen's dwellings and lodging houses. The report of the Wisconsin Stateroad commissioner shows that nearly 25,000 men are employed on railways In ths State. . .

BOWEL BAY-WINDOWS tWhen a man gets one, he becomes a slave to his bowels. Every person ought to have control over the different parts of the body, and it is the easiest thing in the world to educate the bowels, make them do their duty naturally and regularly, and keep them from becoming a source of misery and a deformity as well. Educate your bowels! Don't neglect the slightest sign of irregularity but see that you nave at least one natural easy movement a day. Pills, salts and black draughts are dangerous because they strain and weaken the bowels. What you want is a mild but sure laxative, that tones and strengthens the bowels and stimulates their movements. Such a laxative is CASCARETS, and when you try them, you will find that it is the easiest thing in * the world to make and keep your bowels clean and regular, strong and healthy. Be sure you get the genuine. CASCARETS are never sold in bulk. Look for the trade-mark, the long-tailed “C” on the box. By keeping the bowels clean, all serious disorders are PREVENTED BY . ?■» Get the genuine if you want results! Tablet is marked “CCC.” Csscarets are never sold in bulk, but only and always in the light blue metal box with the long-tailed “ C.” Look ,he trade-mark—the C with a long tail—on the lid! all 25c. 50c.

Isaac Brock, a citizen of McLenoaa ■ County, Texas, has lived 111 years. He now lives with his son-in-law at Valley Mills, Texas. ■ in speaking of his good health and extreme old age, Mr. Brock says: . ••After a man has lived in the world as long as I have, he ought to have found out a great many things by experience. ••One of the things I have found • out to my entire satisfaction is the proper remedy for ailments that . are due directly to the effects of the climate. ••During my long life I have known a great many remedies for coughs, colds, catarrh and diarrhoea. 1 had always supposed these affections to be different diseases, but in reading Dr. Hartman's books I have found out that these affections are the same and that they are properly called catarrh. ••I had several long sieges with the grip. At first i did not know that Peruna was a remedy for this disease. When I heard that la grippe was epidemic catarrh, I tried Peruna for la grippe and found it to be just the thing. ••As for Dr. Hartman's remedy, Peruna, I have found it to be the best, if not the only, reliable remedy for these affections. It has been my standby for many years, and I attribute my good health and extreme old ags to this remedy. ••Very truly yours, For a free book on catarrh, address The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio.
