Grief knits two hearts in closer bonds

| How. TO PRESERVE THE HAIR.-The
best way to preserve, it is to wash the
scalp often and thoroughly with water,
| drying with towel. Oils, pomades,
ETC., clog the pores of the scalp and pre-
vent the healthy growth of the hair
Keep the head well 0entildted; if the hat
is close, raise it often and let in the fresh
air; never wear the hat indoors. The
ladies, Notwithstanding they wear 1ong
hair, (Which is more likely to fall out,)
seldom are bald-headed. Their heads
are not kept closely covered. In sleep
| ing do not cover the head with night
cap. --s,,rf.
CONSUMPTION OF COAL.-Few, unless
stopping to examine facts and to calcu
late the amount of coal used, can form
anything like an estimate of it. We
lately saw statements of the amounts o.
coal mined in England alone last year
The figures from each mine, when added
together, are simply enormous. In bush;
els the aggregate was four thousano
millions of bushels. The amount in this
lcountry is growing larger every year
and will continue to grow in all time to
come. Indiana will furnish more than
any Western State for the next fifty
years, if our mines are developed al
/ rapidly the next as the past five years,

Miss EVANS, THE AUTHoREss.-Mis
; Evans, who is engaged on a novel TO
Blackwood, is most laborous and pain
taking writer, bestowing as much pains
upon single book as ordinary author
!; do upon six. Her handwriting illustrate:
this. 1t is bold, round, as easy TO reat
as print, and scarcely an erasure is to bt
met with in the manuscript of whole
volume. This owing to the fact that sh'
carefully sketches beforehand what sht
intends to write, and then copies it elab
orately. The printers keep her manu-
, script clean, and after the proofs have
|, been corrected it is returned to her. Sht
has the MSS. of all her books bound il
red morocco, and they farm one of the
most interesting features of her library
