' I had a strange experience once in human hair," said a member of the firm of John E. Lafore & Co., human hsiir imr?nrfr.?r? " A VronoH lo<hr <>f j- -- ?# w- w. A A JL. *W*&V1? l?u^ V/4. noble blood, who had been my friend for years, wrote me a few months ago, inclosing a lock of hair, which was a peculiar shade of drab and silky fineness. She wanted me to match it, and I set about doing so. "I inserted an advertisement In tlie principal Philadelphia, New York and Boston papers, offering a liberal reward for a switch of the desired quali ty and color. One day a woman of about 20 years of age, shabbily dressed, but with a form and face that Venus might have envied, entered my office. " 4I came in answer to your advertisement," she said, and removing her hat unbound a luxuriant coil of hair that called from me an involuntary cry of admiration. Will this do? she asked. "I examined her hair and compareo it with the sample sent me by the Countess. The two were so similar that when 1 mixed them together ] could not distinguish one from the other. 44 'This hair is exactly what I want,' 1 said, 'and I will give you $200 an ounce for it.' u *Tako it off,' she said, with a nervous trembling of her voice that at once attracted my attention. *1 are starving, I and my baby, and what you are willing to pay is a fortune tc us.' "I became interested and questioned her. After a little hesitation she told me her story. Her husband had been a sea oantain artel slinrHv uffor tHor r J ? were married had sailed for the weal coast of Africa. His vessel was nevei heard of after leaving port, and it was presumed that she had foundered at sea and all hands had been lost. The presumed widow had struggled to maintain herself and infant child, but with indifferent success. Finally, when suffering from the pangs of hunger, she had read my advertisement an hastened to my place of business, pray ing inwardly that her hair, which had been her husband's pride, might be ol the required shade. "Well, I bought her hair, whicu ,weighed four ounces, and paid her $80(3 for it. I sent the switch to my customer, the Countess, and wrote her tht history of the hair. She is a woman of great wealth and goodness of heart jThe return mail brought me a letter P authorizing me to pay the poor little 'sailor's widow $1,000 extra. I wrote an account of the affair, which was published. One day, about three ! weeks after the publication of the story, a man, who was bronzed and y. . 'bearded, cauie into my office very much J ,v excited. He held in his hand a copj of a New York paper, and unfolding it [pointed to my story. " 'Can you give me the address 01 this woman?' he asked eagerly. 'She is my wife. I thought her dead.' " "While I wrote down the address ht told me his story. His vessel had beeD shipwrecked on the African coast, and v-. he and two others of the crew alone managed to reach the shore. It was several months before they managed to reach a civilized nort. TTftlmmpriiato. l ly sent word of the disaster to the I [owners of the foundered vessel and to his young wife. From the former he k received a reply, but he heard no word from his wife, and when he reached iPhiladelphia he discovered that she ihad mysteriously disappeared. One > day in looking over a paper he came . <r4, across my story and had hurried to my ' 'office to learn further particulars. ] sent him to his wife in my carriage, jand you can imagine what occurred at jthe meeting, for each believed the othI er dead. I wrote to the Countess, givi ling the sequel to the story, and the re* ''' Isult was that the ship-wrecked capjtain now commands her yacht, and :the wife who sacrificed her hair to buy bread sails with him on every voyage." | -T 1?Philadelphia Times. j Getting Right Down to Bnslness.

Wound no man's feelings unnecessarily. There are thorns enough in the path of human life. It is in men as in soils, where sometimes there is a vein o? gold which the owner knows not of. What is birth to a man if it shall be a stain to his dead ancestors to have left such an offsnrinir. - L 0Recollect what disorder hasty or imperious words from parents or teachers have caused in our thoughts. Nothing is easier than fault finding. No talent, no self denial, no character, is required to set up in the grumbling business. A man who puts aside his religion because he is going into society is like one taking off his shoes because he is about to walk upon thorns. Old age is the night of life, as night {? tho r?lfl o iro r\f tho ilav St ill nirrHt. ? ? "* ?"v ""J "*?"** is full of magnificence, and for many it is more brilliant than day. Sorrow itself is not so hard to bear as the bitter thought of sorrow coming. Airy ghosts that work no harm do terrify us more than men in steel with bloody purposes. A good man is the best friend, and therefore is first to be chosen, longest to be retained, and indeed never to be p.ineu witn, uniess ne ceases to De mat for which he was chosen. Life should be our only and great: regard: for the first olllce of wisdom is to give things their due valuation, to estimate aright how much they are worth; and the second is to treat them according to their worthiness. Ho Saw His Father. ' "Father," he began, after taking the old man out back of the barn, "your years are many." "Yes, my son." "Yoij have toiled early and late, and by the sweat of your brow you have amassed this big farm." "That's so, William." "It has pained me more than I can tell to see you, at your age, troubling yourself with the cares of life. Father, your uecuning aays snouid be spent in the old arm-chair in the chimney corner." "Yes, William, they should." "Now, father, being you are old and feeble and helpless, give me a deed of the farm and you and mother live out your few remaining days with me and Sally." "William," said the old man, as he pushed back his sleeves, "I think I see the drift o' them remarks. When I'm ready to start for the poor-hous3 I'll play fool and hand over the deed I William 1" "Ye3, sir." "In order to dispel any delusion on your part that I'm old and feeble and helpless, I'm going to knock down half j an acre of corn-stalks with your heels!" I And when the convention finally | adjourned, William crawled to the nearest hay stack and cautiously whispered to himself: "And Sally was to broach the same thing to ina at the same time! I wonder if she's mortally injured, or only crippled for life 1"?New York Sun. Fable of the Kabbit and the Goat. A Goat once approached a peanut stand kept by a llabbit, purchased five cents* worth of peanuts, laid down a dime, and received a punched nickel in change. In a few days the Goat came back, called for another pint of peanuts, and offered the same nickel in payment; but in the meantime had stopped the hole in it with a peg. "I can't take that nickel," said the Babbit. "This is the very nickel you gave me in change a few days ago," replied the Goat. "I know it is," continued the Rabbit, "but I made no attempt fro deceive you about it. When you took the coin the hole was wide open, and you could see it for yourself.

"George, who is your family physician?" "Dr. Smoothman." "What, that numbskull ? How does it happen you employ him ?" "Oh, it's some of my wife's doings. She went to 'see him about a cold in her head, and he recommepded that she wear another style of bonnet. Since then she won't have any other doctor."?Chicago N'ewa. A Cannibal's Sentence. . All Colorado people remember A1 Packer, the man-eater, who in the early days of Hinsdale county killed j and devoured a number of the first j settlers of that region. He was cap- J tured only a couple of years ago, and j is now in jail at Gunnison. A paper j of that town says: "He amuses himself during the long hours of the day by making fanciful chains and picture frames from cigar-box wood. He is an expert at the business." Mention of him revives interest in the way a native of the Gunnison country paralyzed a Boston excursionist by telling him how Judge Gerry sentenced Packer, the cannibal. It is a fact that Judge Gerry's sentence was a model of its kind, but the native referred to was altogether too enthusiastic. Said he: "The Judge give it to him strong and good. Says he to him, 'Stand up. yer cannibal.' " "Then did he stand up?" timidly asked the excursionist. "Betcher life." replied the native, "lie Btud up, and the Jedge sez ho to him. 'yer a niee sort of a patriotic citizen, ain't ye? Here right at a time when there were only eight men in the country, you must go to work and eat up five of 'em.

Professor Ivnl'tenbach of Gieesen, hac mentioned two instances in which immunity from contagious disease?ins- j parted by an attack of the disorder?has i been transferred from parent to oilspring. Dr. Lander Brunton said recently that headaches were usually dependent either upon the presence of decayed teeth or of some irregularity in the eyes, more eanpeiallv in thn fnnnl lnmrrha hchvonn the two. From statistics collected in the abattoirs of Munich and Augsburg, Strauss has found that not more than one calf in 100,000 is consumptive. The danger of conveying consumption with vaccine obtained from these animals is therefore slight. According to a German histologist, there are in the cerebral mass 300,000,000 nerve cells, each an independent organ, ism and microscpic brain. Of these neive cells he estimates that 5,000,000 die every day, and that every sixty days the brain is replaced. Dr. Ernst Fuchs, author of a prize essay on blindness and its prevention, states that short-sightedness, which is increasing so alarmingly among reading people. is the cause of ten per cent, of all cases [ of blindness of one eye, and that the I immoderate use of tobacco gives rise to j partial blindness.

'. - jsJ: * . ..Vr, ONE OF TIIB WONDBEtCLOP IRON. (hVoin the Chicago Morning Xelct.) ' An Ohio foundryinan has discovered aom? thing now in iron, and a very wonderful tiling it is. By his novel process he can taka all sorts of scraps, such as old bolts, rusty nails, cans and odds and ends, whether of wrought iron or cast, and make them into a .better article of steel than even the Bessemer. iThis now article of steel is said to be ttfty !times as strong as wrought iron. We wait (With putriepce the full development of the juiuiiufaL'luro of this steel, for it will, if sucpessful. work a radical revolution in much of .the iron manufacture of tho preteut day. Another very wonderful thing in iron.science is that which was perfected Rome ('ears ago, in an altogether ditferont lino. x>ng a<o the physicians and surgeons found !put tuat iron was a most important element J in the blood. To introduce it properly into the circulation enriches th ^fcwblo blood and imparts vitality to the <*.tem. Medical skill and ingenuity reachod several different ,methods of preparing iron for this purpose. None were absolutely perfect, however, until the preparation wa< made which is the iron basis of* Brown's Iron Bitters, lu fact, some Df tho others destroyed the tooth, injurod the coats of tho stomach, and produced grievous .constipation and lioidachos. When Brown's Iron Bitters was given to the world, then sommenced a new era of iron medication. This is not inert or mischievous as were tho *tvii |/iopuiauiuun? uuu lb carries mo Iron right into the circulation, thus enrich,ing the blood and building up the brokenilown'or weakened constitution. It is thus plain to see how and why Brown's Iron Bitters lias done so much good to all ?Iaom of invalids. Weakness means disease, strength means ability to cast disease of! and ant. This iron tonic imparts the strength ind vigor which are needed. See how many, ladius ospaL'ially, have vainly wrestled with ? ?.:i T. - ? j.ovjcmo L&11Lii uruwii s iron meters came to their roseue. The writer recently called on Mrs. G. W. Bower, of 334 Cass St., Milwaucee, a woman who is now enjoying excellent health. "For twenty years," said she, "I was troubled with crump3 in my stomach, which attacked me frequently, and without notice. 1 had also a regular inheritance of iyspepsia, with heartburn and neuralgia, ?nd with all thes3 I frequently had sick-hoadiche. Wasn't that a complication of disorders ?" "Verily it was, but you seem to bo bravelyrid of them now. I suppose I may ask how :t came to pass?" ' Yes, sir; there is just one medicine thai lid it, and that is Brown's Iron Bitters. I Ua i taken other things which were said to have iron in them, but none of them did mo any gooil. I ha<l employed several' physicians from time to time, but received little benefit at their hmuls- Now T t.rimi It worke.l wonders for me. Two or three bottles pave mo perfect satisfaction. I do not say that they entirely took away all the cramps, but they relieved mo of that terriblo pain of dyspepsia which 1 hail felt after every meal." \\ ith the flight of that pain also went away the headache which had tornm T n-oo ??1?

I can generally trace it to something that I should not have eaton. I consider myself cured of. the ailments I had, and I most heartily give the credit of my cure to Brown's Iron Bitters. I feel that I can safely recommend this medicine to anybo.lv who is troubled with stomach cramps or with dyspepsia; and you may use my namo in this connection as freely as you pU-aso. "I may say, also," continued Mrs. Bowei-, "that I have given this medicine to my aged mother as a touio. Of course it cannot confer on her the strength that it would give a younger person, but it l.ns been of great advantage to her, and I should think it would be to old people generally." Although such accounts ns this ara now every-day things, yet tliov are none the lass wonderful. What a strange thing it is that such a metal as iron can thus by medical and mechanical skill be made of so great service to the human race ( Brown's Iron Bittors is not to ba had at the taverns or drinking shoos. It is not tha* kind of a thin?. It is a real aud true medicine. and the druggist will soil it to you. We add some homo testimony to the abovt commendatory words: Mr. Marten McKae, Lumber Bridge, N.
