Bruin at Bern®,
Every oua immediately asso
ciates the mention of Borne. Zwil
zorland, with hears, says the Bal
timore American. The coal-of
cirms consists ot* Ohe of these am
mala, and everywhere and on ev
erything they appear—in stone
and in wool, carved aiul painted,
and alive in pits, where they have
been maintained at the expense of
the government from time imme
morial. Fountains are ornament
ed with bears; if the fountain it
self is not a bruin, one is sure to be
found in the vicinity. A statue of
Berthoid vonZohringen surmounts
a watering trough, and by him
stands a small bear, with a sword
hanging by its side, and acting the
part ot helmet-bearer.
Sunday afternoon the entire pop
ulace, old and young, dress in gala
attire and visit the pits. A double
row is formed around tKb railing;
each person purchases carrots or
bread to throw the pets, whose
elephantine-like gambols provoke
shouts of laughter from the sur
rounding' multitude, They real
ly are most musing animals, A
deep tank is in the centre of I,ho
den, and while we were present a
regular wrestling match look place
between two hoary old fellows, in
•which tho great struggle was to
throw one another into tho water.
At last one succeeded in giving his
opponent a thorough ducking,
and then sat on the brink eyeing
his defeated adversary, his head
on ono side, and rubbing his im
mense paws, apparently with the
greatest enjoyment. . Ono of the
lookevs-ou declared that ho grinn
ed and chuckled, but serious
doubts may be entertained as to \
the veracity of that statement.

K em arkable Team of I\orses.
George Fnrnsworlh of North
Brulgton, Me., has a team that is
worthy of notice. Mr. Farnsworth
teams grain from South Paris to
North Bridirton, a distance of fif
teen miles, making several trips a
week, besides doing other work
with his team at home, The fact
of interest, about this team is this,
Ihe united ages of the three horses
are eighty-two years; the leader js
thirty-two, and lie has been in pos
session of the owner a great many
years; the pole horses are each
twenty five, and Mr. Farnsworth
has had them for the past seven-
teen years. They are of Morgan
blood, and in the days of their
youth few horses could out ride
them. The throe are in good con
dition, fat as work horses ought to
be; are almost free from hiemishes,
good eaters, apd seem good for
many years of service yet,
A Faithful .Servant.
A lady living alone in Maryle
borne, London, England, with
very few, if any, friends or rela
tives, was fortunate enough to win
the attachment of a servant, who
stayed with her fourteen years. If
turned out, when the will was op
ened, that the lady had left all she
possessed of to the favorite domes
tic, fitter her death, on condition,
however, that she should visit her
grave and spend at least ten min
utes in every year during her life.
I he fortunate legatee’s friends liv
ed in tho North, near Carlisle, and
she returned to them. She fulfils
the terms of the will, however, by
coming up the last night of every
second year to London. She goes
to the churchyard ten minifies be
fore twelve, Her visits to the grave
ar® thus made every two years,
and yet t.ie conditions of the will
are kept.—New York Observer.

Hair Heyleeted
Soon becomes dry, harsh, coarse, unit
full ol dandruff; it loses vitality ami
turns prematurely gray, or falls out rap

careful U cessing daily with Ayer’s llnir
Vigor best preparation for the pur
pose—-will preserve the hair in all its
luxuriance atul beauty to a J?oo<l old age.
“ My hair was failed and dry.” writes
Mabel Hardy, of Delaware, 111., “hut
aficr using only half a bottle of Ayer’s
Hair Vigor it. became black anil glossy,
1 cannot express the gratitude I feel.”
Frederick P. Coggeshnll. nookseller,
M Merrimack St., Lowell, Mass., writes:
“Some six or seven years ago my wife
had a severe illness, in consequence of
which she became almost entirely bald
and was compelled to wear a wig. A
few months since she began to apply
Ayer’s Hair Vigor to the scalp, and, after
using three bottles, lias a good growth
of hair started all over her head. The
hair is now from two to four inches long,
and growing freely. The result is a
most gratifying proof of the merit of
your admirable preparation.” *
