**T have used Ayer’s Hair Vigor in my family for a number of years, and re- gard it as the best hair preparation I know of.

CHAPTER IV. ( Continued. )
And soon there was but one person remain ing—Iztlil, the Tezcucan. rought from Tlacopan by ofticers, too weak to walk, with- out slaves to help him, at sight of the de- serted hall his countenance became haggard, the light in his hollow eyes came and went, and his broad breast heaved passionately; in that long, slow look he measured the depth of his fall.
**O Tezcuco, Tezcuco, city of my fathers !” he cried aloud. ‘This is the last wrong to the last of thy race of kings.”
A little after he was upon a bench exhaust- ed, his head covered by his mantle. Then a hand was laid upon his shoulder; he looked up and saw Hualpa.
‘‘How now! Has the base-born come to enjoy his wiumph! I cannot strike. Laugh and revile me; but remember, mine is the blood of kings. The gods loved my father, and will not abandon hisson. In their names I curse you !”
** Tezcucan, you are proud to foolishness,’ said the hunter calmly. ‘‘I came to serve you. Within an hour I have become master of slaves-——”
‘* And were yourself a slave !”
** Well, I won my freedom ; I slew a beast and conquered a—— But, prince, my slaves are at the door. Command them to Tila
copan.”
** Play courtier to those who have influence; lean your ambition upon one who can advance it. lam undone.”
‘Tam not a courtier. The service I offer you springs from a warrior’s motive. 1 pro- pose it, not to a man of power, but toa prince whose courage is superior to his fortune.”
For amoment tke Tezcucan studied the glowing face ; then his brows relaxed, and, sighing like a woman, and like a woman over- come by the unexpected gentleness, he bowed his head and covered his face with his hands, that he might not be accused of tears,
‘**Let me call the slaves, O prince,” said Hualpa.
Thrice he clapped his hands, whereat four tattooed tamanes stalked into the chamber with a palanquin. Iztlil’ took a seat in the carriage and was being borne away, when he called the hunter.
‘** A word,,’ he said, in a voice from which all passion was gone. ‘‘Though my enemy, you have been generous, and remembered my misfortunes when all others forsook me. Take with you this mark. I do not ask you to wear it, for the time is nearly come when the son of Hualpilli will be proscribed throughout the valley; but keep it in witness that I, the son of a king, acknowledged your right and fitness to be a noble. Farewell.”
Hualpa could not refuse a present so deli- cately = extending his hand he received a bracelet of gold, set with an Aztec diamond of immense value. He clasped it upon his arm, and followed the carriage into the street.

CHAPTER 1. THE KING GIVR3 A TRUST TO HUALPA.
AND now was come the time of all the year most pleasant—the time when the maguey was greenest, when the cacti burst into flower, and in every fleld women and children, with the strong men, went to pluck the ripened maize. Of the summer, only the wealth and beauty remained. The Goddess of Abundance divided the worship which, at other seascns, was mostly given to Huitzil’ and Tezea’; (Tezcatlipoca, a god next in rank to the Supreme Being. Supposed creator of the world); in her temples the days were all of prayer, hymning and priestly ceremony. No other towers sent up such columns of the blue smoke so grateful to the dwellers in the Sun ; in no other places were there such incessant burning of censers, presentation of gifts and sacrifices of victims. Throughout the valley the people carolled those songs the sweetest and most mil’ennial of men—the songs of har- vest, piece and plenty.
I have before said that Tezeuco, the lake, was the especial pride of the Aztecs. When the sky was clear and the a‘r tranquil, it was very beautiful; but when the king, with his court, all in state, set out for the hunting grounds on the northern shore, its beauty rose to splendor. By this invitation great numbers of citizens, in style suited to the honor, joined their canoes to the flotilla corn- posing the retinue. And let it not be for- gotten that the Aztec loved his canoe as in Christendom the good knight lovee his steed, and decerated it with all he knew of art ; that its prow, rising high above the water, and touched by the master sculptors, was dressed in garlands and fantastic symbols; that ita light and shapely canopy, elegantly trimmed within, was shaded by curtains, and sur- mounted by trailing steamers; and that the slaves, four, six, and sometimes twelve in number, dipped and drew their flashing paddles in faultless time, and shone afar bril- liant in livery. So, when the multitude of vessels cleared the city walls, and with music and song dashed into the open lake, ithe very water seemed to dance aud quiver with a sensuous pleasure.
In such style did Montezuma one pleasant morning leave his capital. Calm was the lake, and so clear that the reflection of the sky above seemed a bed of blue below. There were music and shouts, and merry songs, and from the city the cheers and plaudits of the thousands who, from the walls and housetops, witnessed the pageant. And his canoe was the soul of the pomp, and he had with him his favorite minstrel and jester, and Maxtla; yet there was something on his mind that made him indifferent to the scene and prospective sport. Some distance out, by his direction, the slaves manq@uvred that all the flotilla passed him; then he said to Maxtla, ‘‘ The will has left me, I will not hunt to-day ; yet the pastime must go on ; a recall now were unkingly. Look out for a way to follow the train, while J return.”
The chief arose, and swept tho lake with a bright glance. ‘‘ Yonder is a chinampa; | can take its master’s canoe.”
‘Dogo. Give this ring to the Lord Cuit
lahna. and tell him to onduct the hunt.” * And soon Maxtla was hurrying to the north with the signet, while the monareh was speed- ing more swiftly to the south.
