Aver’s Harr Vigor has long held the first place, as a hair dressing, in the estimation of the public. Ladies tind that this preparation gives a beautiful gloss to the hair, and gentle- men use it to prevent baldness and cure humors in the scalp.
Wokps cannot express the gratitude which people feel for the benefit done them by the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Long standing eases of rheumatism yield to this remedy, when all others fail to give relief. This medicine thoroughly expels the poison from the blood.
Tame Parrrinces.—Harvey Hills, of Lower Stewiacke, N. §., has a pair of tame partridges, which hatched a brood of young birds on July Ist. This is believed to be the first instance in Nova Scotia where these birds have been successfully tamed, or where they have hatched 4 brood§ while in captivity.
I. O. O. F.—The Reception Committee to the Grand Lodge, which meets in this city on Wednesday, the 14th August, have made ex- cellent preparations for event. Deputa- tions will go to Pictou aud Point du ene on the 13th and meet the visitors, who, on arrival here, will be welcomed by the brethern and escorted to their hotels. The full pro- gramme will be published in a few days.
An Exrra Session.—It is said that Pre- sident Harrison has determined to call an extra session of congress in November. TheSenate Republican Tariff Bill of last fall will be the main business before the extra session. The house has now three Repub- lican majority, and more Republicans are expected from the new states. It is said that every effort will be made to push the bill through the house and senate in time to have it in full operation by July 1 next.
Canapa’s Rattway GrowrTu.—There is ro better evidence of the substantial progress being made in this country than the statistics of our railways. In 1850 there were but 7! miles of railway in operation in British Am- erica. In 1868 we had 2,258 miles and in 1888, 12,701 miles, or an increase in 2] years since Confederation of 9,905 miles. In 1868 the paid up capital amounted to $169,500,000, and in 1888 to $727,200,000. Full returns of earnings, etc., cannot be obtained very accur- ately beyond 1875,=but we find that in that year 4,826 miles of railway carried 5,100,000 passengers, 5,600,000 tons of freight and car- ried $19,400,000. In 1888 12,163 miles (in operation) carried 11,400,000 passengers, 17,- 200,000 tons of freight and earned $49, 100,000. These figures give some idea of the extent and gieat development of inter-Provincial trade.

An Ottawa despatch says; The statement of Grit papers that a Summerside journalist has received an appointment in the Depart- ment of Justice here as a reward for his re- cent religious somersault is of course untrue. No such appointment was ever asked for or contemplated.
A Wonderful Flesh Producer.
This is the title given to Scott’s Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil by many thousands who have taken it.

THE COMBINE AGAINST THE CZAR—RUSSIA AND FRANCE READY FOR MUTUAL ACTION.
Bertin, July 21.—The negotiations
with the Porte have resulted in entente, under which the Triple Alliance guarantees
to maintain the integrity of Turkish ter-
ritory in accordance with the treaty of
Berlin. It is stipulated that Turkish troops
shall cooperate with Austria in Servia and
Bulgaria, in the event of war with Russia. | The negotiations were accelerated by the
gravity of the situation in Servia.
AUSTIA READY FOR THE CONFLICT.
A Cabinet Council in Vienna, Thursday, debated whether the time had come for military intervention by Austria. The War Minister has ordered the arming of the, Servian reserves en ‘masse and the dis-| tribution of 350,000 rifles and abundance of munitions furnished by Russia and France on long credit. ! Russian officers, he said, were inspecting fortresses, etc.,in Servia. He advocated immediate action. Everything was ready to march two corps into Servia. The partisans of King Milan are eager | for a civil war in Servia to crush the Rus-' sians. If this occurs, Milan will invoke Austrian assistance. The Cologne Cazette declares the Russo-French arrangments for | mutual action in case of war are near com- pletion.
ITALY TO HELP GERMANY AGAINST FRANCE,
The statement of the semi-oflivial Courier of Warsaw, re-produced here without com- ment, is that, inthe event of a Franco-} German war, an Italian army, marching | via Brenna, will join the Germans at Metz. Austria will provide transportation tor the Italion troops through the Tyrol. Public uneasiness concerning corruption ' in the different branches of the public ser- vice has been increased by the arrest of the | Chief Engineer of the naval construction at, Riel, on a charge of accepting bribes from | contractors. PRINCE BISMARCK AILING.
Prince Bismarck is ailing, and has _ tele- graphed for the doctor and Count Herbert. His sickness was sudden, but it is reported as not serious.

Contagious Consumption.
The following report on Consumption as ,
a contagious disease has been approved by the New York Health Department:
Health Department, } | Division of Contagious Diseases,
309 Mulberry St., July 9, 1889. \
Rules to be observed for the prevention of the spread of Consumption :
Palmonary tuberculosis (consumption) is! directly communicated from one person to) another. The germ of the disease exists in’ the expectoration of persons afflicted with it. | The following extract from the report of the. pathologists of the Health Department ex- | plains.the means by which the disease may be transmitted :
“Tubercolosis is commonly produced in the lungs (which are the organs most frequently affected) by breathing air in which the living germs are suspended as dust. The material which is coughed up, sometimes in large quantities, by persons suffering from con- sumption, contains these germs often in enor- mousnumbers, * * * This material,when expectorated, frequently lodges in places where it dries, as on the streets, floors, car- pets, handkerchiefs, etc, After drying in one way or another it is very apt to become pul- verized and float in the air as dust.”
By observing the following rules the danger of catching the disease will be reduced toa minimum :
1. Do not permit persons suspected to have consumption to spit on the floor or on cloths, unless the latter be immediately burned. The spittle of —— suspected to have consump- tion should be caught in earthen or glass dishes containing the following solution : Cor- rosive sublimate one part, water 1000 parts.
2. Do not sleepin a room occupied by a person suspeeted ot having consumption. The living rooms of a consumptive patient should have as little furniture as practicable. Hang- ings should be especially avoided. The use of ' carpets, rugs, ete., ought always to be avoided,
3. Do not fail to wash thoroughly the eat- ing utensils of a person suspected of having consumption as soon after eating as possible, using boiling water for the purpose.
4. Do not mingle the unwashed clothing of
consumptive patients with similar clothing of other persons. 5, Do not fail to catch the bowel discharges of consumptive patients with diarrhea in a vessel containing corrosive sublimate One part, water one thousand parts.
6. Do not fail to consult the family physi- cian regarding the social relations of persons suffering from suspected consumption.
7. Do not permit mothers suspected of having consumption to nurse their offspring.
8. Household pets (animals or birds) are —_ susceptible of tuberculosis: therefore
not expose them to persons afflicted with consumption; also, do not keep, but destroy at once, all household pets suspected of hav- ing consumption, otherwise they may give it to human bein.
9. Do not fail to thoroughly cleanse the floors, walls and ceilings of the living and sleeping rooms of persons suffering from con- sumption at least once in two weeks,
By order of the Board.
Emmons CLark, Secretary.
Ten thousand copies of the report were or- dered to be printed for distribution.

The anthracite coal mines at Banff have been sold to an English syndicate of which | Messrs. Rothschilds are the bankers, for. the sum of a million and a half dollars. | The mines were originally secured by Messrs. Hector Cameron and James O’Connor, of Toronto, for $28,750. The Canadian- American Co. purchased from them for ‘$27,000 in cash, and a large amount of paid up stock. The new syndicate has’ ‘stocked the company for $5,000,000, and | intend to pushzthe working with great \vigor. They will establish a line of steam- ‘ers between Vancouver and the southern ‘portion of the continent for the conveyance ‘of their coal.

Odds and Ends.
Confidence in success is half way to vic- tory.
You cannot always tell the amount of gas in a poem by its metre.
The scissors grinder is the only man who invariably finds things dull.
Toronto youth—Are you in favor of an- nexation? Toronto belle—Yes, if you can get papa’s consent.
All the crimes on earth do not destroy so many Of the human race, nor alienate so much property as intemperance. — Lord Bacon.
Style, says « writer on literary topics, means everything. Yes, said Gibson, whose wife is a devotee of fashion, it means everything a man’s got,
How old are you, Sambo / I’s goin’ on er hundred years. Indeed, is it possible? Yes, sah, but l’s got quite a little ways furder to go yit.
The little girl who wrote on her examin- ation papers, “‘The interior of Africa is principally used for purposes of explor- ation,’ was wiser than she thought.
Ella, where will you pass the summer? Are you going into the country? Ella—l don’t know, I’m sure. Papa said something about going iato insolvency, and if he says 80, | suppose we shall have to go there.
Something new iu advertising comes from Oregon, where a Salem paper prints
Well, sah,
|the following liberal offer from a babe: “‘If
Johu Jones, who, twenty years ago, desert- ed his wife and babe, will return, said babe will lick the stuttin our of him.”
Judge (to Prisoner)—‘‘So you were drunk and disorderly. What have you to say ?/” Prisoner—‘‘] have a good deal to say, your Honor, if you'll only give me time to say it.” Judge—*‘Certainly; with pleasure. Sixty days will be enough, won't it? Our object is to please.”
The Shah, on his former visit to Loudon, attended a grand concert given in his honor. Being asked afterward what part of the programme especially pleased him, he ex- »ressed great delight in hearing the first selection, referring to the hideous sounds accompanying the “‘tuning up” of the or- chestra.
On account of his family—First jury- man—It looks like a pretty clear case
j against the feller, that’s a fact; but I think
we had better let him go on account of his family. Second juryman—Why, the fa- mily is just about as no accountas he is. | can't see where your argument comes in. First juryman—What | mean is that we will have to keep ’em all winter if we send him to jail. See?
The bravest and most clear-headed are also the most patient; they know how to ‘“‘bide their time’ —simply another form of expression for patience. Where two men— generals, diplomatists or lawyers — are equals im everything but patience *‘ the one who has the most of that sovereign quality will triumph; and the same is true of governments and nations. *‘Let patience have her perfect work.”
The consequence of the vice of intoxica- tion are so many and so fearful that it is difficult to enumerate even the outlines of them; and to pursue them in all their mel- ancholy details would require a volume. . . The mere pecuniary loss to the vation may be fairly estimated at little short of fifty millions of pounds sterling per annum. —- {From report of a select committee appoint- ed by the House of Commons in 1834, and including Lord Althorp and Sir Robert Peel. }
Most of those who die between twenty- five and sixty, unless they die by accident, die by some indiscretion—such as the over- indulgence of appetite, or neglect of food when needed, or of the overstrain of busi- ness, or exposure to changes of temperature without corresponding changes of clothing. It is intelligent caution that saves sickness; and this caution ought to be in possession and exercise in middle life. It is so much easier to prevent sickness than it is to se- cure recovery from it. Hence it is that many who are deficient in vigor in early life out-live the vigorous and careless.
HER PRAYER WAS ANSWERED, “OQ where have you been my pretty maid ’” ‘**To the morning service, sir,” she said.
“Did you enjoy it, my pretty maid ?” “IT did, indeed, kind sir,” she said.
‘“‘And what was the text, my pretty maid ?” **] didn’t hear it, sir,” she said.
‘‘And what did they sing, my pretty maid?” **I cannot tell you, sir,” she said.
“Then why did it please you, my pretty maid ?” ‘*My prayer was answered there,” she said.
*‘And what was the answer to your prayer ’” ‘*Mine was the prettiest bonnet there.”
Always finish work that you begin. One thing finished is worth a dozen half done. The completion of an undertaking yields more pleasure and profit than dozens of plans. The man who is always planning or scheming is rarely, if ever, successful. He often furnishes ideas for others, who gu persistently to work and finish what his ideas suggested. ‘‘That is my idea—my plan,” we frequently hear some one say; but the man who carried it out wasthe man who benefited himself and others. Do not begin what you cannot finish What you undertake to do, do and reap the reward of your own ideas and skill.

Every farmer, says a contemporary, should aim at getting brood mares as near standard bred as possible. This is a solid chunk of common sense, and is well worth applying in actua! practice.
