ried benedict. “This Is the first oppor
tunity I have had of offering my con
gratulations on your recent marriage.
From the look of things I guess you’ve

thing to do. That floor walking berth

"Oh, she’s at work,” said the hus

"At work! What do you mean?”
askedi the friend.
“Well, you see, it was this way,” re
plied the benedict. “She had a much
better position than mine. Head of
her department. Forty dollars a week.
Wouldn’t give it up. So there was
nothing for it but for me to retire from
business and keep house and here I
am, you see. You have to let women

Good lVame for the Dog,
A boy's fishing rod was fastened to
the root of a tree on the river hank,
and he was sitting in the sun playing
with his dog, idling the time away. He
had been fishing all day and caught
absolutely nothing.
"Fishing?” inquired the man passing.
"Yes,” answered the boy.
“Nice dog you have there; what is
his name?”
“ ‘Fish,’ ” replied the boy.
“Fish? That’s a queer name for a
dog. What do you call him that for?”
“ ’Cause he won’t bite.”
Then the man proceeded on his way,

your Tetterine has been to me. James

Resenting Deceit.
“I hate her!”
Winfred’s lustrous oyes flashed an
grily.
“Why, we thought she was such an
old friend of yours?” we ventured.
“She is,” exclaimed Winfred, with
vehemence, “but she doesn’t show her
age, the deceitful, hypocritical miux!”
Of course, when they met hence
forth, she would speak to her and kiss
her, but that was all.—Detroit Jour

My Hair
Was
Coming Out
“About a year ago my biir
■was coming out very fast. I
bought a bottle of Ayer’s Hair
Vigor to stop this. It not only
Stopped the falling, but also
made my hair grow very rapidly,
until now it b 45 inches m
length and very thick.”—Mrs.
A. Boyd3ton, Atchison, Kans.,
July 25,1899.
It Feeds
the Hair
Have you ever thought why
your hair is falling out ? It is
because you arc starving your
hair. If this starvation continues
your hair will continue to fall.
There is one good hair food.
It is Ayer’s Hair Vigor. It goes
right to the roots of the hair
and gives them just the food
that they need. The hair stops
falling, becomes healtby, and
grows thick and long.
Ayer’s Hair Vigor will do
another thing, also; it always
restores color to faded cr gray
hair. si.oe ■ bsttie. aii druggists.

And a single anointing with CUTICURA,
purest of emollients and greatest of skin cures*
This is the purest, sweetest, most speedy, per
manent, and economical treatment for torturing,
disfiguring, itching, burning, bleeding, scaly,
crusted, and pimply skin and scalp humors with
loss of hair, of infants and children, and is sure
to succeed when all other remedies fail.
Millions of Women Use Cuticura Soap
Exclusively for preserving, purifying, and beautifying the skin, for cleansing th®
■calp of crusts, scales, and dandruff, and the stopping of falling hair, for soften*
ing, whitening, and soothing red, rough, and sore hands, in the form of baths for
annoying irritations, inflammations, and chafings, or too free or offensive per
spiration, in the form of washes for ulcerative weaknesses, and for many sanativ®
antiseptic; purposes which readily suggest themselves to women, and especially
mothers, and for all the purposes of the toilot, bath, and nursery. No amount of
persuasion can induce those who havo once used it to use any other, especially for
preserving and purifying the skin, scalp, and hair of infants and children. Cuti-
Cuka Soap combines delicate emollient properties dorivod from Cuticura, the great
Skin cure, with the purest of cleansing ingredients and tho most refreshing of flower
odors. No other medicated or toilet soap ever compounded is to be compared with
it for preserving, purifying, and beautifying the skin, scalp, hair, and hands. No
other foreign or domestic toilet soap, however expensive, Is to be compared with it
for all the purposes of the toilet, hath, and nursery. Thus it combines in On*
Boap at Ok* I'eicb, viz., Twenty-five Cents, the BBSTskin and complexion soap,
the best toilet soap and best baby soap in the world.
