"What I want to know," said the mild-looking young man," was whether
"Oh, I know what ails you," interrupted the young man who once attempted to convince the editor that Iroqucis was of more value than a protective tariff, when it came to keeping British gold in this country; "that table-cloth collar of yours and the lule thimble hat on your head gave Away your racket to me the minute you turned into the home-stretch so that I could get a good look at you.

A FRIGHTFUL STORY OF DISCIP LINE IN THE RUSSIAN ARMY.
One need not be surprised at anything that happens in Russia! The other evening, while smoking a cigar with one of my old friends, who has seen, read and traveled a great deal, I was told of an incident which occurred some forty years ago at Novgorod, quite as sinister as thai which recently occurred at Smargon, when a population of raging madinen tung children into a blazing fire and reveled at the sight of the poor file bodies writhing like vine stems upon the blazing coals. But in the narrative I am about to relate there was no race hatred or religious passion for a motive.
The Colonel of a certain Russian regiment, ferociously tyrannical, and I may say merciless, toward his soldiers, was in the habit of treating this human flock like a pack of brutes. Ite dis. ciplined with the knout, sentencing men to whip- pings for having one button insufficiently polished, whipping a non-commissioned officer for one stain on his cloak, striking veterans of Borodine in the face for saluting too slowly, sending poor wretches to Siberia for giving too free an answer. In short, during the lapse of years, this Colonel had made himself so detested by his men that he reaped a frightful vengeance from the seeds of hatred he had sown.
One morning during parade he suddenly saw file off from the regiment a company of soldiers bearing, instead of muskets, those long rods which cut deeply into the flesh at every blow.
Nevertheless, he had given no orders! There was no soldier to chastise.
"Who is that for?" he demanded.
A grenadier advanced from the ranks and re- plied, with terrible coolness:~~
"For thee!
The entire regiment, non-commissioned officers and soldiers, were in the plot which had been concocted in the barracks. The whole regiment
was present at the terrible spectacle. The Colonel was seized, his uniform torn off, he was tied down in a wheel-barrow and wheeled up and down be fore the ranks of the grenadiers, armed with rods, all of whom struck and insulted him.

Mr. MOORE begs to recommend his
GOGO SHAMPOO WASH
to the public as unrivalled by any prepara- tion ever produced for promoting the growth of the hair. The basis of this compound, is made of soap root; the natives of the Philip pine Islands never use anything else for washing their hair; they are never found bald, and it is quite common to see the females with hair from 5 to 6 feet long. By constantly using this Shampoo Wash as directed, you will NEVER BE BALD.
The proprietor offers the Wash to the public entirely confident that by its restorative pro-, perties it will without fail arrest decaying hair. It completely eradicates scurf, dandruff, and cures all diseases of the scalp. It does not contain any poisonous drugs, By its cooling properties it allays the itching and fever of the scalp, which is the great cause of people losing
their hair.
Mr. MOORE has succeeded in being able to put this wash up in bottles without allowing it to ferment, and he will guarantee it to keep any length of time in any climate.
