for Young Men and Young Women,
There is nothing that will arouse the
ire of a young man or woman to quick as
to have inferior laundry work pui off on
them. They muy dress ever so well,
but it their bhirt front or shirt waist is
i, .ussy, their neat appearance is spoiled.
The troy Laundry makes a specialty ol
ladies' and gentlemen's tine work.
There can be no better work than is done
at the Troy. Leave your orders at John
son's barber shop.
Logan and Stone.
The rains are spoiling ibe cherries.
Hay is falling down, especially clover,
and if it continues aet long it will soon
spoil.-
The Fourth will soon be here; but
there are so many places to go, one
does not know which one to go to. Guess
we'll stay at home.

The question, "Consolidation of Rural
Schools," was discussed daring lecture
Lour. As is nsaal, "there is some good in
all things," that has some advantages for
advanced pupils, but it was the general
concensus of opinion it had many dis
advantages. Take little children for one.
In tbe winter they ought to be in bed
until daylight. Tbey wonld have to be
bustled off to school in such baste, on a
hasty breakfast and cold noon lunch,
more barm than good would be done.

Dark Hair
Ui'awi
" I have used A, sHsirVigor
for great many years, and al
though 1 am past eighty years of
age, yet I have not a gray hair in
my head."
Geo. Yellott, Towson, Md.
We mean all that rich,
dark color your hair used
to have. If it's gray now,
no matter; for Ayer's
Hair Vigor always re
stores color to gray hair.
Sometimes it makes the
hair grow very heavy and
long; and it stops falling
of the hair, too.

The cinlosiiy of the unlives of wild
countries as to everything belonging to
the traveler often leads to iiiiiu.ilug sit

Thousand Miles Through Ilrazll" of his
visit to one settlement where the only
shopkeeper of the place proved Very
linpilslllve. lie was a frequent visitor
and would carefully examine the few
belongings of the traveler. His curios

something he had not hitherto Inspect

"Only a medicine," I replied, mid
with a perhaps unworthy satisfaction
I watched blm hold It up to the light,
look at It all round and finally remove
the glass stopper and then take a good
sniff.
I had to rush forward to save my

After Dinner Oratory.
The fake humorous speaker hns an
easier career than cveu the fake elo
quent speaker. Yet nt any given din
ner the orator who passes out mere elo
cution to his bearers has a success al
most as Instant and splendid as bis
clowning brother. It la amazing what
tilings people will applaud when they
bave the courage of each other's Inepti
tude. They will listen after dinner to
anything but reason. Tbey prefer alo
the old speaker to new ones; they like
tbe familiar taps of bumor, of elo
quence. If tbey bave tasted tbe brew
before, tbey know wbat tbey are going
to get. The note of tbelr mood Is toler
ance, but tolerance of tbe accustomed,
the expected; not tolerance of tbe
novel, tlie surprising. They wish to be
at rest, and wbat taxes tbelr minds mo
lests their Intellectual repose. They do
not wlsli to climb any great heights to
reach tbe level of tbe orator. W. D.
