Should the hair be thin, haish, dry, oi turning gray, Ayer's Hair Vigor will restore the color, bring out a new jrrowth, and render the old soft and shinj. For keeping the scalp (.lean, cool, and healthy, there : no better preparation in the maimer. " I am free to confess that a trial of AyerS Hair Vigor has convinced me tlint it is a genuine article. Its use has not only caused the hair of my wife and l.Milster to be Abundant and Glossy, but it has given my rather stunted mus tache a respectable length and appear ance." It.

" I have used Ayci's Hair Vigor in my family for a number of years, and re gard "it as the best hair preparation I know of.

"HOSA" IS A BLAOKSMITH. A Smart Scauip Who Pooled Mr. Olark scn of Oastle Sock. For some timo, Albert G. Henry, a slender, thin-faced jouth, stood before the smithy fire in Nebraska City, Ne bwska, tnd made the sparks fly in true, old-tiine fashion. But hi3 heart ""as not in his -work; his thoughts -were ever elsewhere as he deftly beat the white-hot i iron into shape. The truth of the matter was, Albert was awfully, aw fully hard up. and upon the one sub ject" of how to raise successfully the needed cash without any great amount of physical labor weio all his thoughts intent. A few mouths ago the following ad vertisement appeared in a Chicago pa per: "G025 Nebraska: I am an orphan, twenty-five years"tf age, good-looking, practical housekeeper, neat in form, &c. "Won't some honest gentleman in need of an affectionate wife, whose age is between twenty-five and forty-five, Tnlrmfvir tr lifdn mi Tnalrfi a livinrr? Those in earnest need only to reply if they inclose a stamp." Just about this time the postmaster at Nebraska City noticed a perceptible increase in his mail and the addition al letters were all addressed to '"Nora" Henry. One day, Blacksmith Henry strolled up to the postoffice and said he would take all the mail addressed to "Nora,'" of whoso existence the postmaster had previously been ig norant. The next evening the black smith was closeted in his room, and before he retired he walked to the postoffice and deposited there a bun dle of letters, all of which were ad dressed in a feminine hand. Soon thereafter letters and packages without end began to arrive for "Nora,'' until the postmaster's life be came so little worth living that he was almost upon the point of becom ing desperate and sending in his resig nation to the Philadelphia merchant. While pondering upon the advisability of this step he received a letter adressed to hhnself in his official ca pacity. This was the letter: MiIjI.iaiidvii.Tji:, I;u, Oct. tJ, ISS9. I saw this lady's advertisement in a newspaper called the climax printed iu Chicago, TJ. S. A. and i answered the same, this Miss Nora henry claimed to bo a Orphan i though i would try my luck for a wife as a fool will some times and i think i have bin duped, that is the long and short of it she promised to marry me the 15 of Nov ember 1880. further more she asked me to send her a watch to pack til we were married and i like a fool mailed her a watch at this office the 18 of September 89. After i mailed the watch to her i went home and got to studying over the matter and went bacek to the office to remand the letter Back. But the mail had gone so i was left, i have got all the letters i have reseived from her. i got to comparing them to eeth- er and they did-not jibe just to suit me so that is the reason I rote to you to forward the letter Back to me. i got none letter from her since i sent the watch to her. i sent her a registered letter wonce before and the card came Back signed By a man his name sign on the card was i. J. Henry, enything more that you wish to know i can help you i will be most happy to do so. James Jones. Then the postmaster smiled know ingly, winked his left eye slowly but empatically, and picked up another letter addressed to himself. This, was from a Dakota fanner: "I never squeal. I guess I've been badly bit, but I would not trade my lesson for a good deal. If you see Miss Henry tell her that while my love for her has entirely cooled, my respect for her gall and slickness will remain forever. That girl is a hun." "Vengeance is mine" muttered the postmaster, and forthwith told all he knew to the authorities, with the re sult that Blacksmith Henry and his brother Isaac, were arrested and brought here. Isaac, it seems, was in the secret, but he kindly agreed to turn state's evidence, and told the officials all they wanted to know. The blacksmith was indicted and a few days ago was arrainged before Judge Dundy, where he pleaded guilty and asked for mercy. The judge said: "It is not the business of the court to protect fools, but I can tell you now that if you return the property of which you defrauded these people the court will be better disposed towards you. Any man old enough to marry ought, to have more sense than to bite at this orphan business, and I u3-.-.v:. n?3& on 1 X the Market Certain to Double in Vaiue ASTORIA REAL ESTATE ' DYSPEPSIA.

This has been an outra geous fraud, but I will give you a short time to think over tho matter, and perhaps you will conclude to deliver up the propertj'." Upon the judge's table were mail bags full of the letters which had been scut to the blacksmith by his dupes. His scheme was to answer the replies, iuelosiug in each a photograph of "Nora." Oai' of tho lirat to respond was Howard Charlson; an old farmer, at Castle .Rock, Wash. The old gentle man sent a lottcr filled with endear ing terms and proposing matrimony. And, Nora, responding, said her heart wa9 touched and she was willing to trust herself with the agriculturist. Then .as a starter, Farmer Charlton sent Nora a little pin, costing perhaps several dollars. Yet Nora was too poor to pay her faro to Castle Book, and would her husband kindly send her tho amount Of course he would, and Parmer Charlson went down into his jeans and sent Nora $75 in good hard cash, at the same time urgiug her to -come o i and be loved. Nora acknowledged the receipt of the cash in the follow ing, written in a delightful feminine hand: Nebraska Crrr, Aug. 12. Dear Heward: Your highly es teemed favor containing tho necessary car faro reached me to-day, and I hasten to thank you. I must hurry to get my things ready, so write has tily. I will come by the Union Pa cific railway, and will stop atPortland if nothing unusual happens. I am in experienced in traveling. I will tele graph you. I cannot leave until tho 23d, as I'havo a sewing maching to sell. Overlook all blunders, for soon we will be together and so happy. Nora. Then Nora would follow this by an other letter bemoaning her sad fate. She had lost tho money and would be forced to remain away from her adorer until he duplicated the carfare, and in many cases tho poor dupe dup licated. Meanwhile matters looked bad for Blacksmith Henry, but the postmaster at Nebraska City is happy once more. LSiscUIoti'sAriiicn alvo.

There are among the Osages no penniless people and none in want, except that insatiable waul i that always wants more. There are f 1,591 of them according io last j oar's i census. They havo in the United States treasury S7,758,091 of their own monev, drawing 7 per cent interest. This amounts to a capital of Sol7o apiece tor the whole nation men, w,omen and children. But be sides this they nave l,-lVU,UUU acres of laud, equal to just 1000 acres apiece. The liud is mostly line and amble, and would sell for un average of 10 an acre or 10.000 for each in dividual's portion. This makes each individual Osago Indian worth $15,172. Eacii family possesses $60,000 on an average, and tho hed of it, if ho be industrious and ente--prisiug, can grow S10.030 worth of crops a year on his -1000 acres of land.
