The controversy is raging fierce and hot
at present in New York. One authority
says that the scavengers are amazed at the
number of waterfalls they find on their dai-
ly rounds every morning. Another equally
trustworthy authority (as far as we are able
to judge says that this is not the case, but
on the contrary, that chignons are worn
more than ever, and the hardressers find it
difficult to supply the demand. We are
perplexed. We do not know what to think;
and suspense on so momentous subject is
painful. Will not some of our fair readers
take compassion on us and come to our re-
lief? ";
We may be permitted, however, in con
clusion, to express hope that nothing
stated above will prejudice our lady readers
against those charming appendages, the
new capillary attraction, the inexpressi-
BILE chignons. Our word for it, it is all
moonshine, dictated by malice. That Ger

bachelor, and certainly had not the fair Of
the sex before his eyes. Let him be ever
