% k X See a Snow We never did; but we huve seen the clothing at this time of the year so covered with ^ dandruff that it looked as if it had been out »n a regular snow storm. No need of this snowstorm. As the summer sun would melt the falling snow so will melt these flakes of dandruff in the scalp. It rocs further than this: it prevents their formation. It has still other properties: it will restore color to gray hair in just ten times out cf every ten eases. And it does even more: it jg, feeds and nourishes the roots of the hair. Thin hair becomes thick hair; and short hair be comes long hair. We have a book on the Hair and Scalp. It is yours, for the asking.

HUY ERS A MIS KhLEllS BUSINESS LIFE THE SUBJECT OF DR. TALMAGE'S SERMON. The Crent Divine I’ujh n IIIkH Cnm- lili.i.ent to the InteKrlty of the ll.i«l..fN* >i.ii. of Today—DenouneeN Trlekery lit Tm.le. i*’('Pyriirlit, Louli Klopik'li, 1S99.] Washinuton, July ‘Jll.—Integrity Aud trickery in liuslness life form the sub- J»fct of Dr. Talmage’s sermon today, anti the contrast tie establishes be tween the two is a striking one. The text Is l*roverbs \x, II: "It Is naught. It Is naught, sailh the buyer, but when he is gone his way then lie boastelh.” Palaees are not sueh prisons as the world imagines. If you think that the only time kings and ijneons come forth from the royal gates is In procession nml gorgeously attended, you are mis taken. Incognito by day or by night and clothed in citizetTs apparel or the dress of a working woman, they come out and see the world as it is. In no other way could King Solomon, the author of my text, have known ev erything that was going on. From my text I am sure he must, in disguise, some day have walked into a store of ready made clothing in Jerusalem ami stood near the counter and heard a conversation between a buyer and a seller. The merchant put a price on a coat, ami the customer began to dicker ami said: "Absurd! 'That coat !s not worth what you ask for It. Why, just look at the coarseness of the fabric! See that spot on the collar! Besides that, it does not tit. Twenty dollars for that? Why, It Is not worth more than $10. They have a better article than that and for lower price down at CTothoui, Fitem & Bros. Besides that, 1 don’t want It at any price, flood morning.” "Hold!” says the mer chant. “Do not go off in that way. 1 want to sell you that coat. 1 have some payments to make, ami 1 want the money. Come, now, how much will you give for that coat?” "Well,” says the customer. "I will split the dif ference. You asked $110, and I said $10. Now, 1 will give you $15.” "Well,” says the merchant, "it is a great sacriliee, but take it at that price.” Then the customer with a roll under Ids arm started to go out ami enter Ids own place of business, and Solo mon in disguise followed liini. He heard the customer ns lie unrolled the coat say: "Boys, I have made a great bargain. How much do you guess 1 gave for that coat?” ‘‘Well,” says one, wishing to compliment Ids enterprise, "you gave $.”0 for it.” Another says, "1 should think you got it cheap if you gave $25.” “No," says the buyer In triumph, "1 got it for $15. I beat him down and pointed out the imperfec tions until 1 really made him believe it was not worth hardly anything. It takes me to make a bargain. Ha, ha!” oh, man, yon got the goods for less than they were worth by positive falsehood, and uo wonder, when Solo mon went back to Ids palace and hud put oft Ids disguise, that lie sat down at his writing desk ami made for all ages a crayon sketch of you, "It is naught, it is naught, saitli the buyer, but when ho is gone Ids way then he boastelh.” IltiMlneiiN Integrity. There are no higher styles of men in all the world than those now at the bead of mercantile enterprises In the great cities of this continent. Their casual promise Is as good as a bond with jdles of collaterals. Their reputa tion for integrity is as well established as that of Fetrarch residing in the family of Cardinal Colonua. It Is re lated that when there was great dis turbance in the family the cardinal called all Ids people together and put them under oath to tell the truth ex cept I’etrarch; when he came up to swear, the cardinal put away Ids book and said, "As for you, Fetrareb, your word is sutflcient.” Never since the world stood have there been so many merchants whose transactions can stand tin* test of the ten command- incuts. Such bargain makers are all the more to be honored, because they have withstood year after year temptations which have flung so many flat and flung tlicm so hard they can never, never recover themselves. While all positions in life have pow erful besetuienls to evil there are spe- eitic forms of allurement which are peculiar to each occupation and pro fession, and It will be useful to speak of the peculiar temptations of business men. First, ns in the scene of the text, business men are often tempted to sae- riticc plain truth, the seller by exag gerating the value of goods and the buyer by depreciating them. We can not but admire an expert salesman. See how he llrst induces the customer into a mood fuvorahlo to the proper consideration of flic value of the goods, lie shows himself to be an honest and frank salesman. How care fully the lights are arranged till they fall just right upon the fabric! Be ginning with goods of medium quality, lie gradually advances toward those of moro thorough make and of more at tractive pattern. How he watches the moods and whims of ids customer! With what perfect calmness he takes (lie order and bows (lie purchaser from Ids presence, who goes away, having made up ids mind that lie lias bought the goods at a price which will illow him a living margin when lie again sells them. The goods were worth what the salesman said they were and were sold at a price which will not make It necessary for the house to fall every ten years in order to fix up things. liilqilltoilM SlriitiiKi-niM. But with what burning indignation we think of the Iniquitous stratagems by which goods are sometimes dispos ed of. A glance at the morning pnpcrs shows the Arrival at one of our hotels of a young ineicliapt from one of the inland chics, lie is a comparative stranger in the great city, and, of course, lie must lie shown around, and It will be the duty of some of our en terprising houses lo escort him. He Is a large purchaser and Inis plenty of tinic mid money, and it will pay to lie very attentive. The evening Is spent at a place of doubtful amusement. Then they go hack to (lie hotel. Hav' r iug Just come to town, they must, of course, drink. A friend from the same mercantile establishment drops in, and usage and generosity suggest that they must drink. Business prospects are talked over, and the stranger Is warned against certain dilapidated mercantile establishments that are about to fail, and for siicli kindness and magnanimi ty of caution against the dishonesty of other business houses of course it is ex pected they will ami so they do take a drink. Other merchants lodging in adjoining rooms find it hard to sleep for tin* clatter of decanters, and the coarse carousal of these “hail fellows well met” waxes louder. But they sit not all night at the wine cup. They must see tin* sights. They stagger forth with cheeks flushed and eyes bloodshot. The outer gates of hell open to Id in the victims. The wings of lost souls flit among the lights, and tlie steps of the carousera sound with the rumbling thunders of the lost. Farewell to all the sanctities of home! Could mother, sister, father, slumber ing in the inland homo, in some vision of that night catch u glimpse of the ruin wrought they would rend out their hair by the roots and bite the tongue till the blood spurted, shrieking out, ‘‘God save him!” (■Hthi-rluic Curses. What, suppose you, will come upon such business establishments? And there are hundreds of them in the cities. They may boast of fabulous sales, ami they may have an unprece dented run of buyers, and the name of the house may be a terror to all rivals, and from this thrifty root there may spring up branch houses in other cities, and all the partners of the Arm may move into their mansions and drive their full blooded span, and the fami lies may sweep the street with the most elegant apparel that human art ever wove or earthly magnllicence ever achieved. But a curse is gathering surely for tiiose men, and if it does not seize hold of the pillars and in one wild ruin bring down the temple of com mercial glory it will break up their peace, and they will tremble with sick ness nml bloat with dissipations, and, pushed to the precipice of this life, they will try to hold back and cry for help, but uo help will come, and they will clutch their gold to take it along with them, but It will be snatched from their grasp, and a voice will sound through .their soul, “Not a farthing, thou beggared spirit!” And the judgment will come, and tiny will stand aghast before it, and ail the business iniquities of a lifetime will gather around them, saying, "Do you remember this?” and “Do you re member that?” And clerks that they compelled to dishonesty ami runners and draymen and bookkeepers who saw behind the scenes will bear testi mony to their nefarious deeds, and some virtuous soul that once stood aghast at the splendor and power of these business men will say, "Alas, tins is all that is left of that great linn that occupied a block with their mer chandise and overshadowed the city witli their influence ami made right eousness and truth ami purity fall un der (lie galling lire of avarice and crime.” While we admire and approve of all acuteness and tact in the sale of goods we must condemn any process by which a fabric or product Is represent ed as possessing a value which it real ly does not have. Nothing lint sheer falsehood can represent as perfection boots that rip, silks that speedily lose their luster, calicoes that immediate ly wash out, stoves that crack under tin* first hot tiro, books Insecurely bound, carpets that unravel, old fur- nlture rejuvenated with putty and glue and sold as having been recently man ufactured, gold watches made out of brass, barrels of fruit, the biggest ap ples on the top, wine adulterated with strychnine, hosiery poorly woven, cloths of domestic manufacture shin ing with foreign labels, Imported goods represented as rare and hard to get because foreign exchange Is so high rolled out on the counter with match less display. Imported, indeed! lint from the factory in the next street. A pattern already unfashionable and unsalable palmed off as a new print upon some country merchant who has conic to town to make his llrst pur chase of dry goods and going home with a large stock of goods warranted to keep, 'IVstn Tlmt Won’t Stnml. Again, business men are often tempt ed to make the habits and customs of other traders their law of rectitude. There are commercial usages which will not stand the test of the last day. Yet men in business are aid to do as their neighbors do. If the majority of the traders in any locality are lax In principle, the commercial code iu that community will lie spurious and dis honest. It is a hard thing to stand close by the law of rigid when your next door neighbor by his looseness of dealing is enabled to sell goods at a cheaper rate and decoy your customers. Of course, you who promptly meet all your business engagements, paying when you promise to pay, will Und it hard to compete with that merchaut who Is hopelessly In debt to the im porter for the goods and to the land lord whose store ho occupies and to the clerks who serve him. There are a huudred practices prevalent in the world of trnllic which ought never to become the rule for honest men. Their wrong does not make your rigid. Siu never becomes vl^ye by being multi plied nml at brokers’ board or merchants^Hjfhnugc. Because oth ers smuggle a rew tilings in passenger trunks, beniuse others take usury When men are in tight places, because others palm olT worthless Indorse ments, because others do nothing hut blow bubbles, do not, therefore, lie overcome of temptation. Hollow pre tension und fictitious credit and com- tuorcial gambling may awhile prosper, but tlie day of reckoning comcth, and In addition to the horror and con demnation of outraged communities the curse of God will come blow for blow. God’s law forever and forever Is the only standard of rigid und wrong and not commercial ethics. Young business man, avoid the first business dishonor, and you will avoid all the rest. The captain of a vessel was walking near the mouth of a riv- qf when the tide was low, and there was a long stout anchor chain, Into one of tlie great links of which Ids foot slipped, and it began to swell, and lie could not withdraw It. Y’lie tide began to rise. The chain could not lie loos ened nor tiled off In time, ami n sur geon was called to amputate the llnih, but before the work could lie done the tide rolled over the victim, and Ids life was gone. 1 have to tell you, young man, that Just one wrong into which you may slip may lie a link of a long chain of circumstances from which you cannot lie extricated by any In genuity of your own or any help from others, and the tides will roll over you as they have over many. ItijclitcoinuicfiM lt«‘\x Again, business men are sometimes tempted to throw off personal responsi bility. shifting it to tlie institution to which they belong. Directors In banks and railroad and insurance companies sometimes shirk personal responsibili ty underneath the action of the cor poration. Aud how often, when some bunking house or financial institution explodes through fraud, respectable men In the board of directors say, “Why. 1 thought all was going on in an honest way, and 1 am utterly con founded with this demeanor!” The banks and the fire and life and marine insurance companies and the railroad companies will not stand up for judg ment in the last day, but those who in them acted righteously will receive, eacli for himself, a reward, aud those who acted the part of neglect or trick ery will, each for himself, receive a coudcmuat ion. ITilawful dividends are not clean tie- fore God. because there are those as sociated with you who grab just as big a pile as you do. He who countenances the dishonesty of the Arm or of the corporation or association takes upon himself all the moral liabilities. If tlie tii aueial Institutions steal, lie steals. If they go into wild specula tions, he himself is a gambler. If they needlessly embarrass u creditor, he himself is guilty of cruelty. If they swindle the uninitiated, lie himself is a defrauder. No llnaneial institution ever had a money vault strong enough, or credit stanch enough, or dividends large enough, or policy acute enough to hide the individual sins of its mem bers. The old adage that corporations have uo souls Is misleading. Every corporation has as many souls as it lias members. Again, many business men have been tempted to postpone their enjoy ments and duties to a future season of entire leisure. What a sedative the Christian religion would be to all our business men if, instead of postpon ing its uses to old age or death, they would take it iuto the store or factory or worldly engagements now! It Is folly to go amid the uncertainties of business life with no God to help. A merchant in a New England village was standing by a horse, and the horse lifted bis foot to stamp it in a pool of water, and the merchaut, to escape the splash, stepped into the door of an In surance agent, and the agent said, "1 suppose you have come to renew your lire insurance?” “Oh,” said the mer chant, “I had forgotten that!” The in surance was renewed, aud the next day the house Hint had been insured was burned. Was it all accidental that tin? merclmut, to escape a splash from a horse’s foot, stepped into the insur ance office? No; it was providential. And what a mighty solace for a busi ness man to feel that things arc provi dential! What peace and equilibrium In such a consideration, and what a grand thing if all business men could realize it! I i i i Adjournlutf Joys. Many, although now comparatively straitened in worldly circumstances, have a goodly establishment in tlie fu ture planned out. They have In imag ination built about 20 years ahead a house in tlie country not difficult of access from the great town, for they will often have business or old ac counts to settle or Investment's to look after. The house is large enough to accommodate all their friends. The halls are wide and hung with pictures of hunting scenes and a branch of antlers and are comfortable with chairs that can be rolled out on the veranda when the weather is invit ing or set out under some of the oaks that stand sentinel about tlie house, rustling iu tlie cool breeze and songful with the robins. There is just land enough to keep them interested and its crops of almost fabulous richness springing up under application of tlio best theories to be found In tlie agri cultural journals. The farm is well stocked with cattle and horses and sheep that know the voice and have a kindly bleat when one goes forth to look at them. In tills blissful abode their children will be instructed In art and science and religion. This shall lie the old homestead to which the hoys at college will direct their letters, aud the hill on which the house stands will he called Oakwood or Ivy Hill or Flcasant Retreat or Eagle Eyrie. May the future have for every business man here all that and more besides! But are you postponing your happi ness to that time? Are you adjourn ing your joys? Suppose that you achieve all you expect—and that the vision 1 mention Is not up to the reali ty, because the fountains will lie brighter, the house grander and the scenery more picturesque—the mistake is none the less fatal. What charm will there lie in rural quiet for a man who has for 20 or 10 years been conforming his entire na ture to tlie excitements of business? Will flocks and herds with their bleat and moan he able to silence the in satiable spirit of acquisitiveness which has for years hail full swing In the soul? Will the hum of the breeze soothe tl e mau who now can liud his only enjoyment in the stock market? Will leaf and cloud aud fountain charm the eye that has for three- fourths of a lifetime found its chief beauty In hogsheads and bills of sale? Will parents be competent to rear their children for high and holy purpose if their Infancy aud boyhood and girl hood were neglected when they are almost ready to enter upon the world and have all their habits lixed aud their principles stereotyped? No, no; now is the time to lie happy. Now Is tlie time to serve your Creator. Now is the time to be a Christian. Are you too busy? I have Known men as busy as you are who hud a place Iu tlie store loft, where ihey went to pray. Some one asked a Christian sailor where he found any place to pray in. (to sal^i, "1 can always flud a quiet place at masthead.” And In the busiest day of tlie season, If your heart is right, you can tiud a place to pray. Busy thoroughfares are good places to pray In as you go to meet your various engagements. Go home a little earlier ami get introduced to your children. Bo not a galley slave by day and nlglit, lashed fust to (lie oar of business. Let everv duv have Its hour for worshlu and Intellectual culture and recreation. Show yourself greater than your busi ness. , Rplrltnul DcfnIcm<Ion. Again, business men are often tempt ed to let their calling Interfere with the interests of the soul. God sends m«‘ii into tlie business world to got ed ucated, Just as boys are sent to school and college. Purchase and sale, loss and gain, disappointment, prosperity, tlie dishonesty of others, panic and bank suspension, are but different ios- so!is in the school. The more busi ness. the more means of grace. Many have gone through wildest panic un hurt. ‘‘Are you not afraid you will break?” said some one to u merchant iu time of great commercial excite ment. He replied, “Aye, I shall break when the fiftieth Psalm breaks in the liftoenth verse, ’Call upon me In the day of trouble, and 1 will deliver thee.’” The store and the counting house have developed some of the most stalwart characters. Perhaps, origi nally they had but little sprightlinoss and force, but two or three hard busi ness thumps woke them up from their lethargy, am! there came a thorough development iu their hearts of all that was good aud holy and energetic and tremendous, and they have become the front men iu Christ’s army, as well as lighthouses in the great world of traf- fte. But business has been perpetual depletion to many a man. It lirst pull ed out of him all benevolence, next all amiability, next all religious aspira tions, next all conscience, and, though he entered Ids vocation with large heart aud noble character, he goes out of it a skeleton, enough to scare a ghost. Men appreciate the importance of having a good business stand, a store on the right side of the street or in the right block. Yet every place of business is a good stand for spiritual culture. God’s angels hover over the world of traffic to sustain and build up those who are trying to do their duty. Tomorrow if in your place of worldly engagement you will listen for it you may hear a sound louder than the rat tle of drays and the shullle of feet and the chink of dollars stealing into your soul, saying, “Seek ye lirst the king dom of God aud his righteousness, and all other things shall be added unto you.” Yet some of those sharpest at a bar gain are cheated out of their hiiinortaI blessedness by stratagems more palpa ble than any "drop game” of the street. They make investments in things everlastingly below par. They put their valuables lu a safe not lire- proof. They give full credit to influ ences that will not be able to pay one cent on the dollar. They plunge into a labyrinth from which no bankrupt law or “two-thirds enactment” will ever extricate them. They take into their partnership the world, the flesh and the devil, and the enemy of all right eousness will boast through eternal iig<'S that the man who in all his busi ness life could not lie outwitted, at last tumbled iuto spiritual defalcation aud was swindled out of lioavon. Perhaps some of you saw the tiro in New York in 1825. Aged men tell us that it beggared all description. Some stood ou tlie /housetops of Brooklyn aud looked at the red ruin that swept down the streets and threatened to ob- liternte the metropolis. But the com mercial world will yet be startled by a greater conflagration, even the last one. Bills of exchange, policies of in surance, mortgages and bonds and gov ernment securities will be consumed in one lick of the flame. The bourse aud the United States mint will turn to ashes. Gold will run molten into the dust of the street. Exchanges and granite blocks of merchandise will fall with a crash that will make the earth tremble. The flashing up of the great light will show the righteous the way to their thrones. Their best treasures in heaven, they will go up and take possession of them. The toils of busi ness life, which racked their brains and rasped their nerves for so many years, will have forever ceased. “There the wicked cease from troubling, aud tue weary are at rest.” Pure, clean blood and a healthy liver result from the use of DeVVitt’s Little Early Risers, the “famous lit tle pills.” They cure constipation, biliousness and siek-headache.
