~ Beauty
Is desired and Admired by all. Among the things which may best be done to enhance perscnal beauty is the daily use of Ayer’s Hair Vigor. No matter what the color of the hair, this prepa- . ration gives it a lus- tre and pliancy that
ey wide greatly to its ea charin. Should the
ey hair be thin, harsh, + dry, or turping gray, Ayer’s Hair Vigor
will restore the color, bring out @ new growth, and render the old soft and shiny. For
keeping the scalp clean, cool, and healthy, there is no better preparation in the market.
“T am free to confess that a trial of Ayer’s Hair Vigor has convinced me } that it is agenuine article. Its use has not only caused the hair of my wife and daughter to be
Abundant and Glossy,
but it has given my rather stunted mus- tache a respectable length and appear- ance.” —R. Britton, Oakland, Ohio.
‘‘My hair was coming out (without any assistance from my wife, either). I tried Ayer’s Hair Vigor, using only one bottle, and I now have as fine a head of hair as any one could wish for.” —R. T. Schmittou, Dickson, Tenn.
**T have used Ayer’s Hair Vigor in my family for a number of years, and re-
ard it as the best hair preparation I
now of. It keeps the scalp clean, the hair soft and lively, and preserves the original color. My wife has used it for @ long time with most satisfactory re- sults.” — Benjamin M. Johnson, M. D., Thomas Hill, Mo.

New Year’s Day.
Taz weather yesterday was mild and pleasant throughout, and the holiday was generally observed. Most of the stores and places of business were closed, and there were the usual services in the churches.
In the forenoon, the fire apparatus was teated on Market Square. The hose attach-
pressure on at the pumping station, and Silsby engine stationed at the latter corner threw two streams over the top of the cupola on the Market House. By the way, we think it was a mistake to ring the fire bell and needlessly alarm citizens.
had the announcement of the test been made in the papers the evening before.
The ‘* Horribles”” were the great attrac-/ tion in the afternoea. Although the tura- out was not so large or the costumes 80 diversified as in former years, they never- theless created a great deal of amusement.
The Salvation Army held an open air meeting on Market Square in the afternoon, it which a Collection, in aid of the new barracks fund, wastaken up. Inthe even-; ing an oyster supper and jubilee was held in the barracks in aid of the same fund.
In the afternoon, “ calling ” was general.
There was aleo a good deal of sleighing, al- though the streete were not in as good condition for driving as many would de- sire. There was a large attenilance at the Hillsborough Rink in the evening, and the ice was in fairly good condition notwith- standing the soft weather.

| Public Meeting at New Perth. naked
UNDER THE AUSPICES OF THE THREE RIVERS DAIRYMEN’# ASSOCIATION,
The meeting at New Perth Schoolhouse, ‘on Friday, the 28th December, *‘to consid- ec whether Couuty Exhibitions are a failure,’ was attended by a goodly number of the farmers of the adjoining settlements; but the unfavorable state of the roads, pre- vented many from a distance, who were in- terested in the matter under discussion, from being present.
F.G. Bovyer, Esq., President of the Association, occupied the chair.
After routine business had been disposed of,—
Jouw Hamivron, Esg., New Perth, read & paper respecting the manner in which exhibitions are conducted, and criticized freely the rowdyism and drankenneas that ure so prevalent on these occasions. He cousidered the Magistrates of the localities where the exhibitions are held should be censured for not providing for the mainten- ance of good order. He said that no com- plaint of the manner in which the com- missioners and judges had performed their duties at the Kiug’sGuunty Exhibitions, could be truthfully preferred, and believed that the county exbibitions should be con- tinued. Mr. Hamilton's paper was an in- teresting one, interspersed, as it was, with sly sarcasias and genial wit; characteristic traits of the author.
The usefulness of county exhibitions was then fully discussed by 8 number of the farmers present, among whom we noticed Jas. D. Dewar, Eaq., Brudeuell; Robt. Dewar, Esq., New Perth; Patrick Koeughan, Esq., Elliotvale; P. Brothers, Esq., Lot 66, John McLean, Esq., Eighteen Mile Brook; Patrick Walsh, Esq., Sammerside; and Measrs. Alex. Mamilton, Wm. Kaneen, James McNeill, H. McNeill, D. Shaw, Alex. Cameron, Jas. Gordon, William McLaren, P. Caia, W. Melntyre, and others of New Perth, besides a num- ber from Baldwin’s Road and Roseneath.
Cyrus Suaw, Ese, M. P. P., being present, said he was highly gratified to see that this meeting had shown so much in- terest in the maintenance of one of our County institutions. He thought the people of King’s and Prince Counties would be standing in their own light if they waived their claim to an annual grant for County Exhibitions. He understood that the Driving Park Company of Charlotte- town intended making «a demand on the Government for the whole amvunt voted ‘or Exbibition pur . in order that our Genera! Provincial Exhibition should be held on the company’s grounds near the city, and that they intended offering some in iucements in the way of erecting large exhibition buildings, and offering an in- creased Prize List to exhibitors in order to secure a favorable answer to their request. ie did not, however, approve of placing che management of our exhibitions in the iands of a private company; nor did he

saiacaiiendinds Breach or Prosisz.—A_ sensational breach ot promise case is on the tapis, ac- cording to a recent despatch. Mrs. Alice M. Prince, of St. John, N. B., is the plain- tiff, and Robt. H. Tremaine, of Amherst, the defendant. The plaintiffis a daughter of John Prince, City Marshal, and the defendant is a well-known druggist. Dam- ages are laid at $15,000.
Aw Arriicrep Famity.—The family of Harry Smith, Trenton, is passing through an affliction. During the past six days three or four children died of diphtheria, and on Monday the father died also. The mother and the remaining child are very low. To add to the discomfort of the af- flicted ones, the neighbors are loath to enter the house for fear of spreading the disease among their own families.-—Zx. —_—_—---——-
A Waryinc.—In New York, last week, a young woman undertook to improve the fire with kerosene; but the kerosene went off at the wrongtime, and the consequences were disastrous for the young woman. The Herald poet tells the story in the following express- ive lines : Stubborn fire,

A Fast StaLiios Veav.—A New York despatch says :--‘“Phe fastest of the Hamble. | tonian stallions, Startle, has died from disease caused by an ulcerated tooth. He was a bay, bred by Charies Backman, at Stony Ford, got by Ryedick Hambletonian, out of Lizzie Walker, was foaled in 1867, obtained a record of 2.26 asa 3-year-old aud then was sold to Robert A. Bonner for $20,000. He never again started for a purse, but fhe trotted the eld Fleetwood track in 2.19, a performance ‘equal to 2.17 on the present track, and he went to the half-mile pole in 1.04}, gait. He was burried on the Bonner farm at Tarrytown.”

A few years ago ery little pure bred stock was shown in Sing’s County, but now the greater ‘part if the exhibits are of the best breeds, and
evidence great improvement. This advance
ie ascribed to the influence of the County Exhibitions, and the emulation among
farmers they stimulated.
R. H. McDona.p, of St. Eleanurs, bein + upon by the President, addressed the ueeting at some length, and said the people { Prince County were anxiously ‘ooking to he action ot King’s County in this matter, ind he bad come down to the meeting to at the views of the farmers of this County. He considered farmers should unite together in order to press their views a the Government. Every business, trade ind preiession had associations for pro- tecting their interests when attacked, and farmers should see that they were deprived of none of their privilege for want of organization. He was giad to see so live an organization as the Three Rivers Assoviution appeared to be. Ho had long advocated, in the western end of this Province, the benefit that would fol- low the formation of such societies, and was glad to know that the farmers of King’s County had taken up this question of ex- hibitions prior to the meeting of the West- ern Agvicuitural Convention next manth.
