It is a most agreeable dressing, which is at once harmless and effectual, for pre serving the hair. It restores, with the gloss and freshness of youth, faded or gray, light, and red hair, to a rich brown, or deep black, as may be desired. By its use thin hair is thickened, and baldness often though not always cured. It checks falling of the hair immediately, and causes a new growth in all cases where the glands arc not decayed; while to brashy, weak, or otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitality and strength, and renders it pliable. The Viqob cleanses the scalp, cures and prevents the formation of dandruff; and, by its cooling, simulating, and soothing propeilies, it heals most if hot all of the humors and diseases peculiar to the scalp, keeping it cool, clean, and soft, under which conditions diseases of the scalp and hair are impossible. As a Dressing for Ladies' Hair The Vigor is incomparable. It is color less, contains neither oil nor dye, and will not soil white cambric. It imparts an agreeable and lasting perfume, and as an article for the toilet it is economical and unsurpassed in its excellence. Prepared by Dr. J. C.

ALBANY, OREGON. Opposite St. ChvL-4 tel Btotts ALBANY, OREGON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER Selected Story. A Desperate Move. Slowly the lun sank behind the dark gtitn old mountain that itood out to homy and aullen. like a frowning giant tlmt had boon placed on u nnVor com ing guard over the sandy valley lying m quietly at iU feet; and yet little cabiu neatled ooaily to iu ecarred Infant an a tiny uest to the rough bark of n mighty tree. A strange, rough place fur a tfiilivh ji ) en tin dark little c ilun jnsrehed among the cloudM liko an cHgle'n Mtftj wt In in the little, rooh door lightly HiUMl girl, fair an.

A v iusouiu Huiiln dimpled around her im n nIio ran lightly down the rugged 000 from the csbin to tho ''lawn of took" the level top of a little moun ain spur that jutted out icto the val ey as though to lave its base in the baming, rock, fretted watora of the Humboldt river, that was barely the vitilli of a narrow trail. 'lie sun was alowlj dying in tho rent that wan flushing with opal tinU, bile the ky hHnn-d like a urt-m golden jsilace, with the duh of wild birdtt' sguinst the windows. Pearl adjusted a glaxa that he had brought with her and gaed long and eameatly toward tho east At laat a bade of disapfiointment and aomethiug akiu to anxiety clouded her face. "Why does he not comtl" she akea herself, thoughtfully, "lie promised to le in aigbt at sunaot and he never broke hi-, word to me yet. tiod grant that nothing of ill has overtaken him." Again she bent her straining gaze tnwitrd the eaat. One thought alone ruled mind and heart, yet nothing within reach eueaped her neuaee. Hhe beard the dab of watets; ehe saw the shadowa aweep up tbe aUne, and far overhead ah? watched the circling eaglea. "Abahr Ii was a long dmwn breath of ago nj.l surpnae, for far away on on the yellow aanda of the valley abe couM now see a horseman urging his steed to the utmoat, and clone oh, so close behind thundered a horde of Indian riders. The glass dropped from Pearl's nerveless hands. There was no uat for it now it seemed na if that tixed gaze might have pierce! th very clouds of heaven, and laid the agony of her aoul at Ilia fret. "That Indian chief who ba sworn that he will lb-Hugh to tbe torture atake with hia own haitda, iu pursuit!" ga) ol Pearl, and a wild cry burst from her whita Ua "Oh, Father in hven, sve himf Nearer and nearer they draw. On and on tore the strong yonng horse: oi though it aeeuied aa if he might havn left the nigbt-biida bebinl in their flight, h- could not shake off thoM pursuers, following like hounds on a itcent. "Gaiufng, gaining! la there nothing that can to done to save bim or must he iieriah before my eyeaf gaaieJ the maiden in her last extremity of human feat . A black mist swam before her eyes, and everything whirled about her; her limtie became (towerlces and she sank uiwn her kneea, with clasped handa Mtretched toward the east, whose soft tints served to bring out in bold re lief tbe dark human and animal flgurea that were drawing nearer every inatant. But out of her exceeding weakness a sudden strength was boror a strength that raised her from tbe rock, and bore her, as with a winged creature's speed up the rocky slope to the cabin. How or whence she was te obtain help, ahe did not ask herself; and if she had she would have received no answer. Far away on tho mountain side, her father was delving fur glittering, shin ing ore but there was not a moment to waste in an attempt to reach and in form him of her lover's peril. Help must eome throng!) her frail hands, if it came at all. Through the cabin and out into tbe little workshop, wherein wan collected a strange mixture of odda and end, the cis rtcted maiden flew. A loaded rifle stood in o e corner of the room and as Pearl put out her hand to seize it, a long, red ray of dying sunset glinted through a large crevice in the wall of the workshops and striking the surface of a little object far above harm's way on a rudely fashioned little shelf, glanced and flickered merrily. It caught Pearl's eye, and an inapi ration seized her with all the quickness of thought. Taking the little object carefully from the shelf, and carrying it as tenderly as a mother might hear her sleeping babe, Pearl turned and fled from the cabin workshop; whisper ing to herself: "It is a desvei ato move. It may save him. audit may -not But, at least, he shall not suffor the horror of the torture stake." Down on th KAndy pls!ft, Hugh Osarood rode as for his life. He knew that the Indiana were tuning ujon him, and also thai it was impossible to reach tho little "laWn of rock" by mean.! of the narrow tinil that led u the mountain side, for the Iniisna would be there almont as soon as him . . . self, and the attempt would not save him and only lie the means of harm to Pearl his beautiful one. "She is watchincr kneelinar on the ouftT he Baid, huskily. -Oh if sh would only go baek to the ea'.iin, s'ip might be safe, for these seal p-hu iter would nver nee that little home, so like in color to the mountain side. Ah she is gone is gone now. Good bye my darling forever and aye!" And be encouraged bis brave k.orse in the hopeless fight, with a voice in which was a passing tremor, as be saw the slender white robed figure on the mountain side disappear. If the horse bad understood the ar gent necessity there was tor doing bis best, he could not have responded more gallantly, and for some minutes he was clearly leaving bis pursuers behind. One mile more of that flying gait would have exhausted all hia powers and Hugh Oagood knew it. Gradually the breath of the splendid creature became more rapid and labor ed, and Hugh could feel tbat his mighty leapa bad lost their electricity, and were Lung made with increasing effort, while tbe muscles in tbe animal's quivering liuiba Mood out like whip cords. With a long, i ii eh i gallop the pur suum came on and were rapidly rta:ov oring the ground they bad lost, as waa ejpd ul to , 1 1 ugh, tur the yells became each moment more dhHtsMyule bis horse every instant grew weaker and weaker. But every thought of bis own dan- er was awept from hia mind as he aaw 'earl rush from out of the cabiu door and run down the slope to tbe table rook. "Pearl, my life, Ood help yout" groaned Oagood in despair, as he watch ed her. Nearer and nearer the edge of tbe bluff, her golden hair floating behind her like abadowy wings, ner eyea burning with a strange, operate glow - -and then she uim1 a moment in so startling a pose that abe might have been a flying nymph, suddenly trans fixed by a aight or sound unknown to others, or a cloud maiden hesitating in an earthward flight. Oagood was near tbe cliff now, and be could see Pearl very plainly. Hhe held her haada out, clasping in them a amall object wbowa nature be could nut determine. And now be heard Iter doar voice, like a faint eebo from the t 'ave of Wind-: Faster ! faster:' An idea fastened itself upon bim as be heard these words and noticed bow carefully Pearl held the little burden in her hand. lie atruck bis horse I lo ently with the spur and the i cinat irr, rally ing all bis energies, plunged Uft nrd. Up the base of iheciiUbw nUggied, and a little beyond, and then stopped shivered and fail. At the same inataiii the clatter of the pursuer' buota iudicu.-d that they were just eotriiug the rocky trail that lay between tbe liumboldi Hivrr and tbe base of the clilf on whose summit stood Pearl. The knowledge of what waa to com m caused Hugh Oagood to crouch cluae to his dead home, with a noiae in FaSSSMWS like tbe rushing of a whirlwind, and every nerve strung like tboaa of one who is exporting tbe fell destroyer. And then a crash aa though tbe rock-ribbed mountain, towering above him, had been riven from its bfjte and had fallen oo bia prostrate form, bury ing biro in the ruma. Great Soott!" exclaimed a sturdy man of thirty nine ot tbereabouta, clad in a red shirt, a belt and a pair of high boots that nearly concealed his buckskin nants. "That noiae sounds as if there waa something ter pay. I guess, Ben Wilder, you'd better hurry up and find out what it means " He did "hurrv uo." for instead ef following the trail he slid down the s smooth surface of tbe rook, up which neither man or beast could have clam bered, to a noint on tbe mountain aide from which he could aee bia home. a - "It'a right there," be aaid cheerily "right where I left; and Heavens What's this?" His quok eye had seen a little white mass lying on the level surface of the cliff; and that sight, together with the explosion he bad heard, caua ed Ben Wilder'a mind to leap instant ly at a horrifying conclusion. How he ever reached tbe clilt be never could tell it seemed aa though only a bitd or a mountain sheep could have passed over that course; and yet be accomplished it with a speed tb a waa marvelous, and in an iuaLa.it ho was holding his uncjneious chini in m his arms. "Pearl, Pearl! My child oh, my child!" At this agonized cry there was a slight sign of returning coliseum Hoeaa, and soon Pearl opened bur eyes ami stared vacantly up into her lathers face. "Pearl, don't you know me?' said her father, gently snuothing the hair away from her brow. Tbe wild and distant look becamo softened and subdued, and Pearl an swered: "Why, yes, father dear. But what has happened! Oh, father!" The laat words weie uttered in a shriek. Mouiory has returned aud brought with it an aony almost too great to be eudu re'd. Pearl threw ip h jr hands. "Fathsr, fathsi ! ' she breathed iu a hoarse, unnatural wbiaMr." "if you love vour noor child iro to the foot of v a t m the cliff and see iud see u you can find Hugh!" fB.it Pearl" "Don't wait for words, father, but go go now!" exclaimed Pearl, frantic ally, and pushing him with her frail hands away from her, who. her face became as pale as death aud her up of a cold purplish blue. Deeply puzzled, Wilder left his daughter and deoended the trail. When he n ached tbe base of the cliff be gave a low whistle, expressive of the great est surprise. "Well, well, well ! if this dn't beat alii Grant Soft! It looks as if a saasago machine bad busted, an' no mistake." Here a figure painfully crawling to ward bim drew his attention away from the scene of devastation. "Hugh Oagood" exclaimed Wilder, rmofrat 18, 1881. in greater astonishment than ever, "What is tbe matUr, man, aud what has happened V "Help mo up the cliff, oaptain, and then I will tell you P said Oagood. in broken, disjointed tones. Wilder half led, half carried tbe other up the trail, and at tbe top they were met by Pearl with outstretched bands. "Oh, Hugh l Thank Ood." And tbe tense strain on her nervea gave way and she burst into a flood of tears. Homebow, Wilder got tbe excited lovers into the cabin, and when calm nesa was restored drew from them the story af Peat i a darat mr in the game whose stake was 1 1 uh Otgoed's Bia. "Oh, father, 'twas -u -h a MMle thing!' shuddered Y -".mlv a little can nf nitro-glycrni , but ita uhh has iiupi-lliled the Stajll of H 'O I iHl Ml Lands !" and htok of horror came into her v-4 "Nonsense, child P exclaimed her father energetically. "An Injun's soul ain't worth as much aa midget's eye ball. You have done an noble aot in helping us pinners got rid of such blsmed rascals. Isn't it so Osgood t" And Hugh's answer brought a hap py look back into tbe fair sweet face. a rsustKrewt SJi ist. A moderate humorist is a gonial companion, but an immoderate one Is spt to shock his friends' sense of pro priety and not lons'of rovorenco. Syd ney Hmithwas humorous to such a extant that when it was pro poped to make him a bishop, the idea so shock ed the Cabinet that the witty clergy, msn was only promoted to the office of a canon, That Smith's conduct gave good reason for the refusal may be seao from the following anecdote given by Lord Uoughton In bis Monographs Personal and Sox id," far the authenticity of which, he will not vouch, but which seems to him gcsxl enough to bo true. On being settled at bis Kmatl living In Yorkshire, Sydney willingly lisslst- ed his neighbors In their clerical du Ilea. On an occasion of this kind, he dined with the incubent on the pro ceeding Saturday, and the evening passed la gnat hilarity, the 'squire, by nimo Kershaw, being conspicuos for his loud enjoyment of the strang er's Jokes. "I am very glad that I have amus- ed you." said Sydney Smith, at rlart- in.g but you must not laugh at my sermon to-morrow. I should hope I know the differ ence between here and church," re marked the gentleman, with sharp iiess. I am not so pure of thst," replied the visitor. "HI bet you a guinea en it," said the 'squire. "Take you," said the divine. Next day the preacher ascended the steps of tbe pulpit apparently suflering from a severe coid, with his handkerchief to his face, and at once sneezed out the name Ker-shaw, sev eral times in vsrious iufnatiins. This ingenious assumption of the readiness with which a msn would recognize his own name In sounds Imperceptible to the ears of others, proved accurate. The poor gentleman burst Intea guffaw, to the scandal ef the congre gation: and the minister, after look ing at him with stern reproach pro ceeded with his discourse. Blti JVMrs. Dane, of Alpena, Mich., must be classed as one of the physical wonders of the 10th century. It Is reportedthst ho recently covered 14 feet IU inch es, In a single standing broad jump. The performance looks next to impos slble, but when it is known that he has repeatedly covered 14 fet9 Inch es It is just possible thst he occom plished the feat. Dane's alleged fust would have been looked upon as im possible 12 years ago. When Ner mann 11 r ties covered 12 feet U Inch es, and won the champjouship, he was looked upon as a wonder. Bob Way, however, eclipsed Borties groat jump, In July, 1867, at Chicago, III., when he covered 12 foot, 8 inches. Way's performance beat all record", and no one came up to it until Ned Searles, of Sing Sing N. Y., beat UUI at Binghamton, N. Y., and cov red 12 feet 11 inches. Searles afterward beat Way, jumping 13 feet 1 inch to Way's 12 feet 11 Inches. The next wonderful jump was made by A. V. Loom is at Utica, N. Y., Iu a match with N.' l Series fjr $ ) and the championship. Loom Is jumped 13 ft. 7 inches, but fell. Searles Jumped 13 feet .VJ inches and won the match. Searles, public performance was not beaten until Brown in England jump ed 13 feet 7 Inches. Hamilton of Fre donia, N. Y., then wiped out previous jumps by covering 13 feet 11 inches, and since he has covered 14 feet 0 inches in numerous matches. Ham ilton's friends claim he can beat Dane, but it is an open question whether he can do so or not. Hamilton can jump 14 feet 10 inches, and according to reports from Alpena, Dane can just land. on the same mark. Fewpe rous will believe that there Is a mtn In the world that can cover 14 feet in a single standing broad jump, but they can rest assured thst both D ine and Hamilton can cover over 14 feet 0 Inches.

Untrimmd at rped skirts will con tinue to be much worn. All sorts of Rhine crystsl ornaments are in high favor. Ombre (shsdnl) stockings com in all tbe new colors. Hunting jackets in new forms con tinue to be fashionable. The haif is dressed close, flat, and with very little flu Mines. Spanish lace, both black ami white, is as much the rage as ever. Cuffs are made very deep, reaching sometimes almost to the elbow. All kinds of laeea are fashionable, but Spanish lace takes the lead. No actual Fancbon bormeU have as yet appeared among new shajtea. Yokes and collars simulating yoka appear on many imported cauiimca Granite cloth is one of the hand somest fabrics shown for suitings. Coronet bands and combs set with Khine crystal will be much worn. Floral garnitures and dhviem wreaths are in demand for ball toilets. Many large pokes are trimmed wita a wreath of flowers within the brim. Cheviots in the new heatber mixtures are aeea both bordered an I t !;... r Velvet, pulsh ind fm bands sill all be used for trimming midwinter suits The majority of bonnets have very ide strings, '.lit some hsve narrow ones. In mercantile invoices, all Larva bonnets are classed aa pokes, am all ones cottages. Moire will be much used in combina tion with cash m re and other woolen stuffs. Cashmeres and cheviots continue la be tbo leading fa brie f. sy - - n viuiuni wear. Among new watch trinkets and charms, the wiah hone in cold and silver is seen. The Jersey is now used for fstigue or on long costumes in the country journeys. Bangle tings have eondan in the form of iedlocks, horseshoe, bel!s and baila. Iooae twisted chamois leather and orn undressed kid gloves are as much as over. Copper and brick dust shades are growing deeper and dsrker as the son advances.

It takes rery little of striped noveltv goods or plush to renovate a half worn Moire is as fashionable this winter as Surah was laat, but Surah is by no means discarded. Even when new skirts are round and clinging in effect, the draperies are ex tremely buflant. Floral decorations either of real or artificial flowers, are coming in vogue for wedding cakes. Heavy double box-plaited iiichings adorn the bottom ot the skirt of many hsndaoill 1 costumes. Khine crystal ornaments are now - . i.j- made so very tine as to simulate dm- monds wonder fully well. Ombre de Burnish is a new cloth for ladies' suits. It cornea with a wide faacy border for trimming. Large . ollars are worn by children, girls inUeir teens, young hdiea, ma - trous and elderly women. Ked Nt)sjr fishes with blue eyes are tho latest novelty in Japanese hanging ornaments for rooms. Slrited novelty fabrics with shot threads of gold in hair lines are mjyh usee m composite costumes. Pretty fsncy aprons are marie of silk, satin and moire with trimmings of lace and artificial flowers.

From San Francisco I crowed the hay by Steamer to Donahne s Sanding here I tcek she cars for Santa Rosa, the county seat of Smoma county, a pretty and a flourishing town of about 3600 inhabitants. After two days sojourn in SsnU Rosa I took the cars for Clorerdale 30 miles north, thence by stage another 30 miles north to this place. This is the county seat of Mer- docino county ; is in the'eoeat range of mountains. It is a pretty little town of about 1000 inhabitants on the west vide of llussiaa Kivcr. It is built up on three terraces of table land, a mss of sand and gravel sloping toward the river, hence, except in front of busi ness bouses there is no need of plank side-walks, you can go dry shod from one end of tbe town to tbe ether in any weather.
