A dis ease of the scalp caused my hair to be come harsh and dry, and to fall out freely. Nothing I tried seemed to do me any good until I commenced using Ayer's Hair Vigor. Three bottles of this preparation restored my hair to a healthy condition, and it th: is now soft and pliant. My scalp is cured, and it is also free from dandruff. Mrs E.R. Foss, Milwaukee, "Wis.

Parliamentary returns sbow that thirty-two peoplStaryed to death in London in 1887. It is estimated that about eighty infants are born in this world every moment, while nearly as many human beings, in the same moment draw their last breath. A clever New York chicken thief has trained two bird dogs so that they will enter heneries and carry off the hens, while he waits at a safe distance with a bag to receive the booty. The infant child of Mr. Louis A. Conti, of Richmond, Va., was bitten by a spider the other night and died in great agony, his body swelling before death to twice its natural size. Mrs. James J. Harrington, the wife of a well-known Chicago druggist, committed suicide the other day by drenching herself with oil and setting fire to her clothes. She was temporarily in sane. According to a Troy (N. Y.) florist, Perle des Jardin roses are often palmed off for Marechal Niels, and not one bride in five hundred who is described as wear ing orange blossoms is so lortu nate as to have them. The highest priced piano in America is owned by Mr. H. G. Marquand of New York. The works were made by Messrs. Steinway & Sons, and the case, which was built in London, was designed and painted bv Alma Tadema. It cost $40,000. 1 It is reported that seven of the men who struck on the Barling ton road have committed suicide because of inability to get work. Numbers of the striking engineers have had to give up the homes for which they were making gradual payments, losing much ot what had! already been paid. A few days ago while John Bugg was plowing near Danville, Ky., which is part of the battle field of Perrysville, he unearthed a camp kettle, in which he found some $45 in foreign silver coin, most of it dated as far back as 1792. It is thought, to be tho de posit of a soldier afterwards killed in battle. In tho cemetery for federal so! diers at Florence, S. C, is a sin t!l headstone inscribed "2480, Flor ena Budwin," which marks the grave of a young woman who donned the blue and followed her husband into the army. She was taken prisoner, but not until her death in child-birth was her sex suspected by her captors. Luther TV. Holman of Boston Mass., charged with conspiracy to kill his sister and thus secure her share of their dead father's estate, pleaded guilty on Monday and was sentenced to ten years' imprison ment in Ihe house of correction. Medical testimony was given to the effect that the prisoner was partially insane. A young married woman of Cincinnati quarreled with her mother-in-law the other day, and to frighten her left the house, os tensibly to call a policeman to ar rest the old lady. Believing the threat, the latter jumped from a second story window, breaking one knee-cap and spraining her ankle." She will bo a cripple for the remainder of her life. Investigations by scientists in New York Gity have revealed the unpleasant (fact that the Croton water ot.JNew i:ork swarms more thickly with bacteria than the wa ter, supply of any other large citv. They are to be found in it at the rate of 90,000 in each ordinary t'umblerfull of water. This is far above the rate recognized by sci entists as dangerous fifty to the cubic centimeter. A Boston girl Upon retiring the other night found a rat in her room. She gave chase, and just as she was about to deal it a cruching blow with the heel of her boot it tookj refuge in the spring of her bed, quite out of reach. Concluding be was too scared to venture out again that and the next .morning had in a neighbor's torrior, and the dog ferreted out tlieratfand killed it. A thrce.-vear;6ld cbiltT.was been on the track in .front of an east Pennsylvania train "the'olfier day, but too late to stop the train. It looked as if, despite the engineer's' efforts, the little one was doomed, when James bnyderoiUarnsburg, the fireman, took in' the situation, and at the peril of his own life sprang to the pilot of the engine, picked up the little one and pushed it into a place of safety. Speaking of Mrs. Porter's ex pose of the manner in which east ern hotel servants are housed and fed, Joe Howard says in the Bos ton Olebe: I am glad a woman has taken hold of this matter. Every goodnatured man of the world who travels to any extent knows about the treatment, but he has no way to ventilate it. It is a wonder to me that there is a shred of virtue or a fiber of hon esty left in any hotel servant on the face of the globe. . "Penny Wise and Pound Toollsn." That's what men arc who plod along trying to do their business, when thev feel half diad. Tlieh-evesaredim and threb: their head aches : the chil dren annoy them; their wives lose their charms ;tnev lose tneiraraumon; tney make mistakes in their accounts, and the whole world looks blue: they hate themselves and everyone else. And why? If you feel so, why dont you stop and tn'nfc a minute or are you too stupid? Tour liver and blood are out of order; that's alb You need a pood regulator and tonic.

A poultyman advises that eggs should never be placed near lard, fruit, cheese fish, or other at tides from which any odor nrises.

A young man jumped up and com menced circulating uiu nui, msucu a manner as to finish the job and pass out with the proceeds. The preacher, eyeing him as he went out, ebserved: If thatyoung man runs away with that money, he'll bo damned. A deacon sitting by the window, seeing him make off down the street, respended: "And if he hasn't run away wi th the money I'll be.dainned."
