Rgcrsl /Hair t vigor j " * What does it do? It causes the oil glands in the skin to become more active, making the hair soft and glossy, precisely as nature intended. It cleanses the scalp from dandruff and thus removes one of the great causes of bddness. It makes a better circulation in the scalp and stops !he hair from coming out. II Prevents aM II Cares Baldness 1 Ayer’s Hair Vigor will surely make hair grow on bald heads, provided only there is any life remaining in the hair bulbs. It restores color to gray or white hair. It does not do this in a moment, as will a hair dye; but in a short time the gray color of age gradually disappears and the darker color of youth takes its place. Would you like a copy of our book on the Hair and Scalp? It is free. It yon do not oMaln al! ths benefits you exacted from the use of the Vigor write the Doctor about It. Address, DR. J. c. AYER.

iniv ’ Ptt<ldin K «r Hard I,abor. Oliver I Wist, as the world is by now almost tn ed of hearing, asked for more and w as duly punished. Another workhouse inmate was brought before a London magistrate recently for an offense the reverse of Oliver s. The lady in question refused to eat the portion ot pudding a n otted to her and express _ ed her disapproval of the fare by walking out of the refectory during the meal, followed by other inmates. Such an act was a serious sign of insubordination and a dangerous example to more hungry O r more timorous paupers, and so the labor mistress "had the law on her.” When before his worship the defendant explained that the pudding was heavy and laid on her chest. Ihe real offense, however, was leaxing the table before the others had finished. It is cheering to know that though inmates of -workhouses are in misfortune and have come down in the world, the social tone is kept up in its utmost rigor. For this crime against manners Mr. Qluer awarded a sentence of fourteen da^s’ hard labor.

No theatrical production made in many years has attracted so much attention as Jacob Litt's presentation of the great English melodrama, "Sporting Life.” The play is acknowledged to be the best of the many of its character sent here from across the water, nnd never in the history of the American stage has a play N'en staged on so magnificent a scale. Like all melodramas. "Sporting Life" allows a wide diversity of scene of acti.W and in this ease sixteen huge sets of scenery arc used during the course of the play. The cast includes forty-five sjM'aking parts and then- are over 200 auxiliaries list'd to conqilete the stage pictures which have Iwn pronounced unsurpassed in lieauty. The company includes many of the most noted players on the American stage. This great production has been running all win ter at the Academy of Music in New York, filling it at every isTforninnee. not withstanding the fact that, barring the Auditorium in Chicago, it is the largest theater in the country. Early in February this immense production will be brought intact to McVicker s Theater in Chicago with all its great scenery, east, aece^orics of j>rodu^j^u ; which im’ >. a stable of tnorongliTirwJ race horses. Thstory of "Sporting Life" is one w^ieh w ill interest every true American. Here. in England, the love of true sport is strong in every heart. The play deals with the sports of the English-sjH'aking race in a most delightful mnußiT, almost every known form of sport being shown during th< play A stirring story of love and ad venture runs through it. enlivened by incidents both picturesque and thrilling. The run of this play at McVicker’s Thea ter promises to be one of the sensations theatrically of the year. Bro hI of Woodpeckers.

Do not wait for the first symptoms of the disease, but get a Ix'ttle to-day and keep it on hand for use the moment it is mn-ded. If neglected the grippe has a tendency to bring on pneumonia. The Balsam prevents this by keeping the cough loose. All druggists , sell the Balsam.

HON. JOSIAH B. ALLEN, Os the Supreme Court of Ohio,. Had La Grippe—Praises Periuna. Dr. Hartman is receiving hundreds oT letters every day about his famous rem- | edy for la grippe. Ordinary remedies j seem of no use. Pe-ru-na is the only remi edy that entirely eradicates this stubI born disease from the system. The res-jf son for this is that Pe-ru-na is a scie^^r । tific catarrh remedy ; it cures catarri»JP all stages and phases. La grippe is epidemic catarrh. Hon. Josiah B. Allen, Clerk of the Supreme Court of Ohio, writes Dr. Hartman ou the subject of la grippe as follows: Columbus, 0., April 16, 1897. The Pe-ru-na Drug M’f’g Co.: Gentlemen—l have been afflicted with a disease, commonly known as la grippe, every winter since that disease was discovered. I have tried many remedies', without success. This spring I was induced to try a bottle of Pe-ru-na. I have now taken two bottles and have received much benefit therefrom. In fact, all symptoms of the disease seem to have left me. Therefore I cheerfully recommend the virtues of Pe-ru-na. Yours truly, Josiah B. Allen.
