Ayer's Hair Vigor makes
the hair grow. This is
because it is a hair food.
It feeds the hair and the
hair grows, that's all there I

Living Ranvrams.
Of all the birds the tiny humming
birds nre the most ioveiy. They look
like animated Jewels ns tiny dart
about from flower to llowor in the
sunshine. Aa Is so often U rose
with birds of beautiful plumage, trey
hnve no song to speak of. Moreover,
they are as qunrrelaome as the taury
sparrow, flRhtiiiR with their mntes as
well aa with stranRers. They are very
Inquisitive, too. their curiosity often
FKettlnx them Into trouble, and come-
timea even Into the collector's net.
But like most wild thlnps they ennnot
bear captivity, and usually pine away
and die. For that they are such ex
quisite creatures, the South American
Indiana call them the pretty nnmes of
the beams and locks of the sun.
The Girls nnd the Parasols,
Two little girls, named Annls ar.d
Grace, had been given new sun shades,
and hnd fallen Into a quarrel In re;;ard
to their respective bfauty.
"Mine is red," said Annie, "and
Is therefore the gayest and most at
tractive, and will best become my com
plexion and hair."
'And mine," retorted Grace, "be
ing blue, ia much cooler to look upon
and la a more fashionable summer col
or; and besides. Its shape Is better,
its size larger and its handle more
beautiful. I wouldn't have a red um
brella for anything, so there."
"And I think you're a mean, hate
ful, little girl, so there," answered
Annie.
Then they became so Interested lt
their quarrel that they laid their open
sunshades upon the ground while they
continued tho argument.
And while they were thus engaged
a playful summer breez; came up and,
catching up the parasols, whirled them
Into a nearby pond, where they floated
amid the mud and ooze much to the
dismny of their owners.

Everybody knows, or ought to know,
that the pressure of the atmosphere
at sea level, 13 In round figures, 15
pounds to the square Inch, but It Is
not generally known that this may
be demonstrated In a very Blmple way.
Take a glass tube three fect In
length and closed at one end, the open
ing In the tube being equal to ono
clghth of an Incu squnre. Pour mercu
ry into the tube until It Is full, and
then, with your tlnger over the open
end of the tube to keep the mercury
In and the air out, Invert the tube In
to a small vessel containing mercury.
Having removed your flnfer from
the open end of the tube the mercury
in the latter is, of course. In communi
cation with that in the vessel, and you
will find that the mercury in the tube
will fall six Inches, leaving that much
empty space at the top.
Now put your finger over the open
end of the tube again, and lift the lat
ter from the vessel. Pour the mercury
out of the tube and w?Ight It, and you
will find that It weighs three and
three-fourths ounces. That ia to say,
a column of mercury one-eiirhth of an
Inch square, and 30 inches in height
weighs three and three-fourths ounces.
But a square Inch la 114 tlmea as large
aa one-eighth of an Inch, and a column
of mercury one inch squnre and SO
inches in weight would weigh, there
fore, C4 times three and three-fourths
ounces, or 210 ounces, which is equiva
lent to 15 pounds.
The pressure of the atmosphere,
therefore, must be 15 pounds to every
square Inch of surfuce. Philadelphia

The Mocking lllrd and the I'.ing love.
On the eastern shore of Maryland
there are some beautiful woods, and
these woods resouifd with the mimic
of the little mocking birds thut gaily
flit from bough to bough.
Some years ago, about twe'nty-flve,
there lived in Talbot, a Maryland
town, a little girl named Alice, and
her brother William. They werj tho
only children of a clergyman, and
Were greatly lovd by every one. Like
other children they had their pets, and
being in this land of songsters among
them were a mocking-bird and a ring
dove. "Bob," the mocking-bird had a very
foft-gray back, and the sprinkling of
white on his black wings and tall
made him look as If be had just come
in from a snow-storm. He and the
pretty ring-dove with the black half
ting around its creamy neck were
fcept In the same room In cages that
Were hanging side by side.
"Bob" was the pride of Talbot. He
vould be heard through the village
streets at all hours of the day, and
very often at night, and the passers
by paused to listen to .the clear liquid
notes podfijtff 'forth so sweetly from
Jtls tiny sroat. ,aa'
By and oy an aunt of tho children
came to visit them, and when th
time for ber to lBy drew near tat
family thought they would like to
ihake her a present. Unfortunately
they had not a great deal of money,
and aa she had so often experessed
dollght at the soni of the mocking
bird, It was decided to give little
"Boh" away.
I do not understand how that could
have been even thought of, but It was
doubtless It was supposed that an
other mocking-bird could be caught In
the woods.
Alice and William grieved more than
the others, though th!y wanted to be
generous; yet It .-as many nights be
fore they fell asleep without a fearful
talk about their dear little merry
"Bob."
One morning came a letter from
Aunt Julia for Alice, and this Is the
principal thing that was In It:
"I do not know what alls Bob. He
has not sung a note since we came
home, but sits in the corner of his
cage drooping. I have tried every
thing I could think of. What do you
suppose Is the trouble?"
The family at Talbot ware surprised
to hear that "Bob" had stopped sing
ing, and the only way they could ac
count for It was that he missed his
little companion ring-dove. So they
decided, as th?y did not like to ask
to have "Hob" returned, to tend the
ving-dove on to him.
This was done, and the change In
"Boh" was wonderful. He began sing.
Ing. singing, singing, as if hlB little
throat, could not contain the sweet
mclcdK any longer. They poured forth
In burst of rapture the little bird
singing, elnging. until there was one
final peal of glorious song, and little
"Bob" lay I'ead upon the floor of his
cage. He had loft his life while show
ing the joy that had come all too late
to his little broken heart.
I have ofteu t.'ondered what became
of the little ring-dove, but no one has
been ablo to tell file. Anne Washing

'tsh anil Their Odd l.lttln Ways.
Fish have a great many curious hab
its and are often very knowing fel
lows. They can be Ill-tempered or
mild and gentle as truly as animals
or boys and girls. A visitor to the
aquarium at Battery Park one day re
cently discovered that there are not
only big fish, but tiny little ones whose
ways are well worth watching. To
hear of fishes with eyes nearly on their
tails is surely astonlsling. Yet that
is what the lltllo "four-eyed fish" in
the Aquarium rrcm to have at first
sight. But looking more carefully the
tail eyes prove to be merely black
spots Inside of white circles. This lit
tle flrh is eo short and broad with Its
bit of a tail, that at a distance It la
hard to tell which end Is head and
which tall.
Four-eyed fish have at least three
other names and are known aa tho
bride, birUerfly and peacock fish, tho
last name b:lng given because the
"eye" la like that in a peacock's tall
feather. There are more than twenty
of tltem In the tank in the Aquarium,
but unhappily some make themselves
disagreeable by nipping and biting the
others.' They come from Uennttdn,
where they live In the shallows of the
coral, flitting In and out among its
crevlci s und tiseures.
Then there are the grunts, from Ber
muda also. They have not deserved In
tho least their ill-natured name, for
they are peaceful fellows.
The blue parrot flah are called by
one of the Aquarlvm officials "merry-go-rounds,"
hecauso for hours at a
time when their tunk is full of water
they amuse themselves by swimming
round and round In nnrrow circles.
One of the most Interesting and in
telligent little things Is the sen horso.
Although so tiny, measuring only a
few Inches, he has a head and neck
shaped like a miniature horse's, grace
ful and erect, and the long, tapering
tail makes him look like tomo of tho
strange creatures of the fairy book
pictures. When Mr. Spencer, one ot
the Aquarium officials, tapped lightly
on the glass, the sea horse came for
ward at once from his dim corner, and
seemed to pay the closest attention to
all that was said to him. Mr. Spencer
has known them in laboratories to
grow tame enough to come when
one called and cling to one's finger
with their elendcr tails.
Among the strange and Interesting
fishes who have had individuality all
their own Is the exqulsiuly beautiful
angel fish, with a gorgeous Muo band
about the edge of the body and fins.
His name Is as ill suited to his temper
as the grunt's was found to be, for tie
angel fish cruelly kills bis mate.
The green morays, or great eels,
which grow from 10 to 15 feet long;
the queen trigger fish, with a spine ou
Its back which raises or drops llko
the trigger of a pistol, and tho pretty
moonfish from out' own Gravesend
bay, which look like- mother of pearl
and fairly cost it slight reflection from
their brilliant bodies, all attract many
visitors, and appear to be conscious
sometimes that they are being shown
off. But the carps at the eutrance,
so say the attendants, actually seem to
weary of the crowds of sightseers, and
when they stand motionless and
open their mouths languidly, it is their
way of yawning and says to curious
visitors: "Oh, dear! Why can't you go
away and leave us -alone." New York

The Hnrefoot Fad.
The latest sensation In Dublin Is the
adoption by a number of society peo
ple of the "barefoot" fad foif their chil
dren. Considerable attention is
aroused now and .then in the streets
about the fashionable squares by the
appearance of smartly cjad children,
walking barelegged and barefooted, all
but a slight sandal. The Idea Is that
the children are made hardlur and legs
likely to take cold by this exposure.

PURE FOOD
LAW VIOLATED.
Interesting Pacta Owprrnlng the Itnastlng;
of Cotlse ttronght Out by artentlllo
EspertsPfesence of Bacteria.
Toi.Kno, August 10th The Jury In
Judge Meck's court In this city has
found James WhU'o, a local grocer,
guilty of selling adulterated coffee.
The prosecution w-os based on a pack
age ot Arlosa coffee.
The State ef Ohio, throngh tho rure
Food Commission, prosecuted White.
The case was on trial for nearly a
month, and attracted national atten
tion. The manufacturers of Arlosa coffee
conducted the defense for Grocer
White. Attorneys of eminence
tvere retained to defend him.
but after a short consultation a verdict
of guilty was returned by tho Jury.
The State ot Ohio considers this a big
victory. Puro Food Commissioner
Blackburn has been waging a -warfare
on spurious food articles nnd the de
partment has been successful.
The complaint of the State of Ohio
was that Arlosa coffee was coated with
a auA'sbtnce which concealed defects
in the coffee and made It appear better
than It Is. The State charged this coat
ing or glazing was a favorable medium
for the propagation of bacteria.
Trof. G. A. Klrchmaler. of this city,
a well-known chemist, was the prin
cipal witness for the State. He tes
tified that ho. bad made scientific ex
aminations of samples of Arlosa
purchased from Grocer White In
the open market, and found that
each berry contained on average
of 300 bacteria. Mr. Klrchmaler
further testified that other cof
fees he examined contained few bac
teria or none at all. He declared that
the glazed coffee was not a wholesome
food product.
Chemist Schmidt, of Cincinnati, cor
roborated tho testimony of Frof.
Klrchmaler. The State did not present
further testimony.
The defense secured some of
the most eminent chemists and
scientists In the United States
to give testimony In their behalf. Prof.
II. W. Wiley, of the United Stater
Agricultural Department; Trot.
Vaughn, of Ann Arbor University;
Profs. Blello nnd Webbor, of the Ohio
State University, were called to de
fend Arlosn. Dr. Wiley made a care
ful examination of the method of mnu.
Ufacttirlng. Ho told of the 10,
000,000 eggs used yearly In the prepar
ation of this glaztiig. On this point.
In cross-examination, tho State's at
torney deftly drew from him tho In
formation that these eggs might bo
kept in cold storage for a year or two
at a time.
The experts who beard Dr. Wiley's
testimony were pleased to listen
to so fnmous n chemist The
doctor at 0110 point in his testimony
explained very clearly how It is that
tho egg put into the coffee pot by
the housewife settles the coffee. Ho
said that the heat coagulates tho egg,
and as it siuks to the bottom of the
pot It carries tho lino particles of
coffee with it, and thus clnrlllcs the
drink. It is tho act of coagulation lu
tho coffee pot that docs the work.
Later on In his cross examination, he
admitted that when the egg was
put on Arlosa coffee at the factory It
became coagulated, and as egg cannot
be coagulated but ouce, that the coat
ing on coffee was practically no value,
as a "settler" when It reuched the
coffee pot
Professor Wiley acknowledged that
the glazing might be a favorablo
medium for tho propagation of bac
teria, although ho would not testify
positively cither way because he was
not a bacteriologist.
Professor Vaughn, of Ann Arbor,
also 0 witness for the defense, said
ho found bacteria on Arlosa coffee.
Professor Blclle, another witness for
the defense, testified ho found any
number of lively bacteria ou 'Arlosn
coffee be examined, and agreed that
glazed coffee surely was a more favor
able medium for the propagation of
bacteria than uujlnzed coffee.
Pure Food Commissioner Blnckburn
says: "The Sfato is very much elated
over Its victory. We are now couclder
lug the advisability of Informing every
grocer in the Stato of Ohio that It is
an Infraction of the laws to sell
Arlosa, and at the samo tinio glvo
warnlug to consumers that tho coffeo
Is an adulterated food article."
The verdict of the Jury In this case
Is of national Importance because a
great many other States have pure
food laws UUo tbnt of Ohio, and It
la natural to suppose that similar ac
tion will be taken by other Pure Food
Commissioners to prevent tho sulo of
glazed coffees.

USE OJTICURA SOAP, assisted fcy Coticora Omfxr.catv
the great skin cure, for preserving-, purifying:, and beauti
fying: the skin of infants and children, for rashes, itching?,
and chafingjs, for cleansing: the scalp of crusts, scales, and dan
druff, and the stopping: of falling: hair, for softening:, whitening:,
and soothing: red, rough, and sore hands, and for all the purposes
'of the toilet, bath, and nursery. Millions of Vomen use Cuticura
Soap in the form of baths for annoying; irritations, inflammations,
' and excoriations, for too free or offensive perspiration, in the form
'of washes for 'ulcerative weaknesses, and for many sanative,
antiseptic purposes which readily suggest themselves to women,
especially mothers. No amount of persuasion can induce those
who have once used these great skin purifiers and beautifiers to
use any others, especially for preserving: and purifying- the skin,
scalp, and hair of infants and children. Cuticura Soap combines
delicate emollient properties derived from Cuticura, the great skin
cure, whh the purest of cleansing ingredients and the most refresh
- ing of flower odours. No other medicated soap is to be compared
with it for preserving, purifying, and beautifying the skin, scalp,
hair, and hands. No other foreign or domestic toilet soap, how
ever expensive, is to be compared with it for all the purposes of
the toilet, bath, and nursery. Thus it combines in ONE SOAP
'at ONE PRICE, the BEST skin and complexion soap, the BEST
toilet and baby soap in the world.
