MATCHING A LOCK OF HAIR
Outcome of a Hair Merchant's
Advertisement.
A Husband and Wife Who Thought Each
Other Dead Reunited.
' I had a strange experience once in
human hair," said a member of the
firm of John E. Lafore & Co., human

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

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

' 'office to learn further particulars. ]

jand you can imagine what occurred at
jthe meeting, for each believed the othI

"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

"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."

pushed back his sleeves, "I think I see

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

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.

up?" timidly asked the excursionist.

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 ~9 4,1
Miu. s. HU1 ^1U I UK ^UU UU UL tUUbe
headaches I can assure you. Once in a long
whilo now I have a little return of cramp,
but. 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. C.,
says: I took Brown's Iron Bitters for dy?
pepsia and disordered blood and Improved
