The Great Secret Of exceptionally long and abundant hair may never be solved; but that Ayer’s Hair Vigor preserves the hair in all its beauty and luxuriance, and even restores it, when thin and gray, it. Well Known. -P: J. Cullen, Saratoga Springs, N. Y., writes : “ My father, at about the age of fifty, lost all the hair from the top of his head. After one month’s trial of Ayer’s Hair Vigor, the hair began coming, and, in three months, he had a fine growth of hair of the natural color/’ J. T. Gibson, 96 Mope st., Huntley, Staffordshire, Eng., says : “ I have seen young men in South Australia quite gray, whose hair has been restored to its natural color after using but one bottle of Ayer’s Hair Vigor.” Ayer’s Hair Vigor, Prepared by Dr. J.

Therefore, medicines that will- strengthen these organs and at the same time cleanse and purify and renew the blood, will have a tendency to cure the majority of human ailmente. Such a remedy is Dr. Guysott’s Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla, and, although producing no active cathartic or diuretic effect,its use will soon establish a painless regularity of urinary and digestive functions- It has long ago proven itself a specific for scrofula and other syphilitic disorders, curing such diseases even when? all other treatment, including Hot Springs, failed. A great point in its favor is that it contains no mercury or any mineral poisons, and will never harm the most delicate constitution. It merely makes one feel buoyant and rids the system of blood impurities and other internal and external indications of failing health. Why? Why? Why? J 3 it that so many neglect coughs and colds until they get consumption ? Why is it - that so many die of consumption ? It is because they will not eojne and be healed. Every one knows a sure conquei'or of throat and lung diseases is Dr. Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry, and that it is obtainable throughout the length and breadth of our land. Reader, if you suffer, hasten and procure a bottle. It is pleasant to take and never fails to give satisfaction. A single dose will cure an ordinary cough. A few bottles will cure consumption if taken in time. JOHN D. PARK & SONS, Proprietors.

TRADE AND LABOR.

Philadelphia Record. Nova Scotia coal has been successfully used in coke-making. - Near Lakeland, Fla., thirty trees Rear 100,000 oranges per year. The production of the 3,000,000 acres of cotton in Texas is 1,500,000 bales. Grand Rapids, Mich., has forty-two furniture factories. They employ 12,000 persons. England turned out 1,701,312 tons of bar-iron last year, 84,611 tons in excess of the production of 1886. The members of the Southern Society of Plaid Manufacturers operate 9,000 looms and employ 11,250 persons. About 100,000,000 lead-pencils are manufactured in the United States annually, one-fourth of which are exported.

A brass wire made in Glasgow for the Glasgow exhibition is sixty-five miles long, and a copper wire measures 111 miles. The government of Chili has ordered six locomotives of home manufacture. They will cost $21,000 in gold and will be like our engines. The Frederick Billings arrived at Seattle, W. T., with a cargo of coal a few days ago. It is said to be the largest afloat, being able to carry 4,500 tons of coal. It is predicted that cypress wood from the South will be largely used in Northern buildings in a few years in consequence of the exhaustion of the fields in the North and West.

The pig-iron export from Birmingham, Ala., is steadily They are sending it to Pittsburg and from there to Eastern cities, and selling it cheaper than the Pittsburg product. The Japanese are extensively developing their coal lands. The output, which in 1881 was 700,000 tons, has been increased every year. The apparatus is from Europe, especially Germany. The French Canadian Society of Stonecutters, of Montreal, is enforcing the rule in practice in some of our cities of making stone-cutters from Great Britain pay SSO for initiation to the union. State Statistician Lamb, of Minnesota, complains of the number of girls looking for work which are not fit for a respectable family, and of the numerous families in which no decent girl would stay. In many places of Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Tennessee and North Carolina, farm hands are paid from 35 to 50 cents a day. The P. E. Bishop, of Florida recently said that he knew people who were getting 50 cents a week. Servants get $2 and $3 a month in western North Carolina and parts of South Carolina. Railroad laborers get from 90 cents to $1.25 a day. In the trades wages run nearly up to the Northern standard. Mr. Koch, in an address_before the Society of Engineer’s of Western Pennsylvania, stated that he believed the reason why American plate was, so much better than English was because it was rolled in ,both directions at the same heat, and as a consequence the tensile strength of a cross section of our steel was almost the same as a longitudinal one, while the English plates showed a great difference that way, the cross sections not being able to stand anything near so much as the longitudinal when put to the test. The Journal of United Labor says: “The Order of-Knights of Labor is extending into all countries of the earth. There is already one flourishing district assembly at work in England, and the general executive board last week granted a charter for another district assembly in the same country. Inquiries are being made from Ireland, Scotland, Wales—from all the chief trade centers France, Germany and Belgium already have local assemblies, while Australia, South America and New Zealarfd are among the probabilities during the present summer season.”

Mr. E. I. Seward says: “The total coal production in the world is put at 420,000,000 tons, of which Great Britain produces 160,000,000, the United States 120,000,000, and Germany 75,000,000 tons. The production of the United States is divided between thirtv-tvo States and Territories, the largest of course being Pennsylvania, which last year gave us 34,000,000 of anthracite and 30,000,000 of bituminous. In money value the output in the United States is safely $500,000,000 in the markets Where used. This is greater than the value of the gold, silver, cotton and petroleum produced in our country.”

IN WESTERN QUICKSANDS.

A Lost Locomotive Proves the Difficulties of Railroad Construction Over Them. “In the construction of the Kansas Pacific and Atchison, Topek,a and Santa Fe Raikoads,” said H, L. Carter, a railroad contractor of St Joseph, the other day, “one difficulty of frequent experience was met with which, as far as my experience goes, is unique in railroad history. I refer to the trouble arising from quicksands. From Western Kansas to the mountains quicksands are to be found in nearly every stream, no matter how small, and to successfully bridge them required an expenditure out of all proportion to the si ze of the stream to be crossed. “We tried pile driving, but the longest piles disappeared without finding the bottom. Then filling with earth and stone was attempted, and met with equally poor success, as the quicksand was apparently capable of swallowing

the entire Rocky Mountains. The only means of crossing was found to be to build short truss bridges across them. This was very expensive, but was the only thing to be d6ne. As an instance of the practically bottomless nature of the quicksands, I may cite that an engine ran off the track at River. Bend, about ninety miles from Denver, on the Kansas Pacific. The engine, a targe freight, fell into the quicksand, and in twenty minutes had entirely disappeared. Within two days the company sent out a gang of men and a wrecking train to raise the engine. *To their surprise they could not find a trace of it. Careful search was made, magnetized rods were sunk to a depth of sixty-five feet, but no trace of the engine could he found. It had sunk beyond human ken, and from that day to this has never been discovered.

“Cattle and horses are frequently lost, the only animal that is safe being the mule—the only animal that never gets caught. No greater instance of the intelligence of the same malignant quadruped can be cited than the skill with which it avoids all unsound bottom. As its hoofs are much smaller and narrower than those of a horse it would mire down in places where a horse would be perfectly safe. Recognizing this fact, when a mule feels the ground giving way under his feet he instantly draws back and cannot be induced to advance a step, although a whole drove of horses may have immediately pre’ceded. Those who think a mule stupid are much mistaken.”

SOME ODD THINGS.

An attempt has been made to have the historic gallows tree on Hampstead heath cut down. Emperor Frederick died within thirty feet of where he was born, and at exactly the same hour of the day. A six-ton cab, carrying an electric battery strong enough to run it forty miles, recently made a satisfactory trip through London. Recently a disgusted Oshkosh, Wis., juryman offered to pay the sum in dispute if the claimant would dismiss the case. The offer was refused. The lumber from which the gallows was constructed on which John Brown was executed is owned by a resident of Harper’s Ferry, who is waiting for some relic hunter to come and take it off his hands. The modest sum of $1,500 is asked for it. Sinking mountain, located four miles from Tallulah Falls, Ga,, on the river Chattooga, is a great phenomena in nature which scientists can not explain. It sinks imperceptibly all the time, but on the occurence of an earthquake, even in the remotest part of the world, it sinks instantly from one to six feet. V

There are a number of warm sulphur springs in Elsinore, Cal., and a citizen of that town is utilizing them for in cubating purposes. He puts a tin pail full of eggs in a spring whose temperature is 102 degrees, and in three weeks the chicks come out. As the temperature of the spring does not vary the eggs require no attention. This beats the patent incubators all hollow, A young man, about 20 years of age, dressed in the height of fashion, was arrested at Erastina, S. 1., Thursday, while throwing aw’ay money to a crowd who surrounded him. He told a policeman that he had more cash than he could conveniently spend. He was the son of a wealthy contractor of Washington, D. C., and said his father had allowed him a vacation of two weeks and had supplied him with money! He w’as fined $3. Recently a gentleman who was traveling in Switzerland found a veritable curiosity in a museum in the little town of Soleure. It was a bird’s nest made of imperfect watch springs which had been trown out of the little watch factories which abound in that district. Some bird considered them excellent material of which to construct her nest, and with infinite care worked them together,into as perfect a structure of the kind as one could desire to see.

At Canton, Me., a pair of robins and a pair of spatrows each had a nest and a brood of young in the shrubbery near Nahum Moore’s front door. A crow destroyed the young robins and the mate who defended them, leaving the young mother disconsolate and in pitiful mourning. Soon after it wad discovered that the robin mother was brooding the" young sparrows, bestowing upon them the tenderest care, while the elder sparrows bring food and guard the home. Thus these happy ralations seem to continue without ajar, as though the three attendants were a common necessity in rearing the family.

The Result of Merit.

When anything stands a test of fifty years among a 1 discriminating people, it is pretty good evidence that there is merit somewhere. Few, if any, medicines have met with such'’ continued success and popularity as has marked the progress of Bbandreth’s Pills, which, after a trial of over fifty years, are conceded to be the safest and most effectual blood purifier, tonic and alterative ever introduced to the public. That is the result of merit, and that Brandretii’s Pills perform all that is claimed for them, is conclusively proved by the fact that those who regard them with the greatest favor are those who ’have used them the longest. Brasdrkth’s Pills are sold in every drug and medicine store, either plain or sugar-coated.'

Sometimes the shrewdest men miss fortune. Here is an example. Charley Snider, a newspaper Bohemian, who lives most of his time abroad; told the story a night or two ago: Some years since he saw in the tap-room of an English hotel the first syphon bottle used in ' Great,.Britain. He thought it a good thing, and proposed to a friend to buy the sole right for its manufacture and sale in the United States. He judged it was was just the thing to captivate the j American taste. His friend laughed him out of the idea and he reluctantly let the matter slip. In a year afterward the new syphon bottles were in every decent bar-room in the land, and Melville Durfee, the smart New Englander who had secured the right and the patent here, made more than a million out of the venture. The right for this country was bought for $5,000.

The future of this great country depends largely upon the good health of our women folks. How sad that they should share an excess of suffering. Let it not be so. By the use of Dr. Guysott’s Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla the female system can be strengthened. It is a certain cure for periodic pains, bearing down sensations, menstrual irregularities and general female weakness. Yonkers Statesman: As a rule tailors and shoemakers do a promising businsss.

The Handsomest Lady in Town

Remarked to a friend the other day that she knew Kemp’s Balsam for the Throat and Lungs was a superior remedy, as it stopped her cough instantly, when other cough remedies had no effect whatever. So to prove this and convince you of its merit, any druggist will give you a sample bottle Free. Large size 50 cents and A night signal—“ Steward, a. whisky toddy.”

A Good Investment

is that which yields large returns from a small outlay. Reader, the way is clear! No speculation, no chance, big returns! If you are like most of mankind you have somewhere a weakness—don’t feel at all times just as you’d like to—headache to-day, backache to-morrow, down sick next week—all because your blood is out of order. A small outlay and what large returns! Yon invest in Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery and soon pure, fresh blood courses through your veins, and you are another being! A howling swell—the sea in a storm.

A Great Legacy

to bequeath to your children, is a strong, clean, pure constitution—better than wealth, because it will never prove a curse. You can not give what you do not possess, but mothers will find in Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription a wonderful help—correcting all weaknesses, bringing their systems into perfect condition, so that their children, untainted, will rise up and call them blessed! There is not a druggist in all the land But always keeps a stock on hand. Afoot note—“ Please use the mat.”

Living Witnesses!

Ask any one who has used Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Purgative Pellets as to their merits. They will tell you that pimples, blotches and eruptions disappear; that constipation—that breeder of disorders—is relieved; that the appetite is restored; that the whole system is renovated and regulated beyond any conception by these little wonder-workers. Being purely vegetable, they are perfectly harmless; being composed of concentrated, active ingredients, they are powerful Purge and purify the system and disease will be unknown. Of all druggists. The child of the sea - the harbor buoy. Moxie has created the greatest excitement as a beverage,%i two years, ever witnessed, from the fact that it brings nervous, exhausted, overworked women to good powers of endurance in a few days; cures the appetite for liquors and tobacco at once, and has recovered a large number of cases of old, helpless paralysis as a food only.

AN HISTORIC EVENT.

Cincinnati’s Jubilee of One Hundred Days. The celebration of the one hundredth anniversary of the settlement of the Northwest Territory, which is now in progress in Cincinnati, and which is to continue for one hundred days and nignts is one of the most important events of the present century. A dozen States are officially represented, the Government has furnished a magnificent collection of curios from Washington, D. C., and all the arrangements of the Exposition are on a broad and liberal plan. The Art Gallery, for instance, is the finest ever, seen iri this country; the intrinsic value of the paintings in the collection is estimated at one million dollars. The electric light display will be the mostUrilliant ever witnessed in the United States. The new buildings with the permanent Music Hall and numerous annexes represent an area of forty-five acres under one continuous roof, and the space for exhibiting purposes aggregates nearly a million square feet. Reduced rates are given on all the railroads, which will insure a monster attendance. ______

A storm at sea means inevitable sea-sickness for ocean travelers.

No uumedicated stimulant o( commerce is comparable for efficacy to the great invigorant. Emigrants to the West pronounce it a reliable preventive of malarial infeetton, as well as other complaints to which hardship, impure water ana miasma-tainted vapors give rise.
