Beauty

Is desired and admired by all. Among the things which may best be done to enhance personal 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 adds greatly to its charm. Should the hair be thin, harsh, dry, or turning gray, Ayer’s Hair Vigor will restore the color, bring out a 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 a genuine article. Its use has hot 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 ( withont any assistance from my wife, either). I tried Ayer’s Hair Vigor, using only one bottle, aud I now have as fines a head of hair as any one could wish for.” —k. T. Sehmittou, Dickson, Tenn.

‘*T have used Ayer’s Hair Vigor in my family for a number of years, and re- rard it as the best hair preparation I snow of. It keeps the scalp clean, the hair soft and lively, and preserves the original color. My wife has used it for a long time with most satisfactory re- sults.’?— Benjamin M. Jolinson, M. D., Thomas Hill, Mo.

‘* My hair was becoming harsh and dry, but after using half a bottle of Ayer's Hair Vigor it grew black and glossy. I cannot express the joy and gratitude I feel.’’— Mabel C. Hardy, Delavan, IIL

Christian Association was held in the Upper Parlor last evening. There was a fairly good attendance, although the weather was stormy.

The President, J. D. Seaman, Esq., occupied the chair and delivered an address of some length, reviewing the work of the Association for the past year, and suggest- ing improvements in some departments. The Reading Room is to be re-fitted and improved in a short time, and the commit- tee in charge of the proposed improvements to the room deserve all praise for their suc- cessful efforts in raising funds. On the! whole, the operations of the Association during the year were effectively carried on and much good was done. The receipts for the year foot up a very respectable amount. | Several members who did good service in the interests of the Association moved

away since the last meeting, including Messrs. Turner, Crosby and Brown.

The Secretary, Chas. Leigh, jr., read his

report for the year, which, we understand

H. J. Cundali, Esq., Treasurer, read the financial statement for the year,

Reports were given by the Chairmen of the various committees.

The thanks of the Association were con- veyed to Mr. Seaman for his efficient ser vices as President during the past three

The following officers were elected for the eusuing year:

President—John T. Mellish. Vice-Presidents Judge Hensley, J. D. Seaman, F. S. Moore, Geo. Bremner, Geo. Ritchie, J. M. Campbell.

Treasurer—H. J. Cundall, (re-elected. ) Hon. Secretary—G. F. Beer.

General Secretary—C, Leigh, Jr.

Timely Hints to Mothers.

It is at this season of the year that one of the most dreaded of diseases makes its insidious attacks. Many a fond mother, upon being suddenly awakened by the peculiar ringing, rattling cough that heralds croup, has been so frightened as to be un- able to think of or apply a remedy. It almost always attacks its victim in the night, and is greatly to be dreaded on ac- count of the extreme rapidity with which it develops. If possible in this case, as in all cases where you distrust your ability to act, send for a physician, but do not sit down hciplessly meantime, as you may do much to relieve the sufferer and check the ravages of the disease. Give an emetic at once. Syrup of ipecac should always be kept in the house fur this purpose, as it is the easiest to give a child. Let the dose vary from a quarter of a teaspoonful to al teaspoonful, according to the age of te child, and give every five minutes, until vomiting ensues. Put hot, moist poultices of flaxseed or hops on the throat and upper part of the chest. A hot bath, if practi- cable, will often give relief, but do not undertake this unless you have the proper conveniences.

Another malignant disease, where a little prompt action will often avert the most serious, is diphtheria. The symptoms are soreness of the throat, pain in swallowing, and the formation of a grayish membrane in the back of the throat. There is always a low fever, depression of spirits, and a rapid decrease of strength. One of the best

of the disease is to paint the throat wit! iodine. If this is not at hand, use lemor or lime juice until it can be obtained. Al- ways keep a soft camel’s hair brush among your medicines. If the patient is oid enough to use a gargle, pure lemon, or lime juice, a solution of chlorate of potash, or alcohol and water is very effective.

Little children often suffer painfully with earache. A drop of warm olive oil, mixed with an equal quantity of laudanum, will generally relieve this, if dropped in the ear. Or place a little cotton, -well satur- ated with chloroform, in the bow] of a new clay pipe ; insert the stem into the ear of the sufferer and blow gently. The evapor-

mediately.

Every mother knows how often little ohes get something in the eye. Take hold of the lashes of the upper lid with the left

pencil against the middle of the lid, turn it upward; then remove the substance with a camel's hair brush, or the corner of a soft handkerchief. Particles of lime often cause great pain if they get into the eye, as any one who has ever whitewashed a ceiling can testify. Apply weak vinegar to neutralize the alkali and remove the particle as directed. A sprained ankle can be successfully treated at home. Remove the shoe and stocking as quickly as possible, and wash frequently with cold salt water. If there is much heat in the joint, apply cloths wet with a mixture of seven ounces of water, one of laudanum and one dram of sugar of lead. Keep the foot elevated and cool; do not stand on it, and move it as little as possible. ‘ For the sting of a bee, or the bite of an insect, apply diluted ammonia, or bi-car- bonate of soda, to the part affected.— American Agriculturist for December.

Odds and Ends.

Fifty three persons under sentence of . ; “ ; death, are contined in the Kansas peniten- tiary.

_Albany proposes to have a ‘‘ winter car- nival,” and the common council has voted aid to the amount of $1,000.

Less than fifty years ago there was not a photographic camera in the world; to-day there are 15,000 photagraphic establish- ments, to say nothing of the thousands of aliateur outfits, in the United States.

A retired merchant, aged 83, of Provi- dence, anda Boston widow just one year his junior, was married on Friday. It wasa case of love at first sight, the couple havy- ing met for the first time only three weeks ago.

There is a granite house in Rowan county, Va., built in 1766, and is still owned and occupied by the descendants of the man who built it. The five-place is 8 feet wide, 5 feet high and 5 feet deep; the house is in a good state of preservation.

The McNab treated the family to a fan- tasia upon the bagpipes, and when he had concluded he looked round with honest pride and remarked:—‘* Eh, men, but that’s vera deeficult !”’ ** Is it?” asked the O'Flaherty. ‘‘ Begorra, Oi wish it had been impossible.”

At Denison, Tex., a negro took laaghing gas before having a tooth pulled, and as- tonished the dentist by leaping from the chair through the window, carrying sash and all to the pavement, twenty feet below, yet, strange to say, was only a little shaken when he came to himself.

A good colored brother in Georgia re- cently wrote to his bishop for a clerical supply as follows:—** Send us a bishop to preach. If you can’t send usa bishop send us a sliding elder; if you can’t send usa sliding elder send us a stationary preacher; if you can’t send him, send us a circus rider; if you can’t spare him, sead usa locus preacher; if you can’t spare a locus preacher send us an exhauster.” That settled it, and he got a preacher.

Mrs. George Hirsch, of Navarro County, Tex., gave birth to six children last month. There are four boys and two girls. The father, George Hirsch, is 31 and the wife 27. They have been married five years and have three children besides the recent ceession. Hirsch has named the boys frederick, Mills, Cleveland and Thurman. "he girls are Victoria and Louise. The abies are tagged to preserve their iden- tity.

the tidy sum of $23,000 has just been paid for a single box at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York. This would purchase a handsome residence in any city in the country, or would support a family in better style than most families are com- pelled to get along on nowadays. A_ box at the opera, however, is deemed as essen- tial to the existence of a fashionable family in the metropolis asa roof or the means of subsistence are in some other social strata.
