worn, and Virgil, Cicero, and other classical
writer's mention the use of hot irons for curl
ing and crimping! Even the much. abused
fase.hair, for which our modern bellies and
beauties are so often denounced in terms of
unmeasured severity, was worn by the Greeks,
Assyrians, Persians, and Romans. The
Egyptians resorted to wigs in preference to
their natural hair. In France, during the
extravagant reign of Louis XIV, false hair,
extending halfway down the back, with a
profuson of curls, became the mode, and to
such an excess was this fashion carried, that
it was deemed breach of etiquette to appear
in ones natural hair. "There is no new
thing under the sum-" saith the preacher, and
we find that modern fashions but follow this
ancient rule

THE HAIR AND ITS FASHIONS.

When the "tervor of the summers day
draws nigh, there is heard throughout the
land, general clipping and cutting of the
hair, principally confined, however, to the lit
tie ones and their fathers and brothers. The
long, flowing tresses, which have been the
poets tavorite theme from earliest times, as
descriptive of female loveliness, are rather a
burden to the fair possessor during the scorch'
ing days which are characteristic Of our
American summer.
AS the hair is conspicuous feature, almost
every variation in the arrangement thereof
changing the personal appearance it constl'
tutes, especially with the ladies, is an impor-
tant part of the toilet, and has received meri-
ted attention in all nations, ancient and mod
ern.
In every age, fine head of hair has been
thought an ornament, and sign OF vlgor,
health and beauty.
The Scriptures record the esteem which the
early Hebrews had for beautiful hair, and all
the busts and statues of Grecian art which
have descended to us, represent the heroes
and heroines' luxuriant locks
Mourning and funeral rites were symbolzed
by the ancients by the neglect Of the hair, or
by cutting or pulling it out, and shaving the
head was badge of degradation imposed
upon criminals, and as mark of servitude.
1t was formerly the practice to remove the
hair of the condemned, before ex"utlon, in
convicts both of Ugh and low degree. Louis
XVI when upon the guillotine, implored his
executioners to spare him this disgrace, and
his request was so far acceded to that only
his back hair was removed.
The diversity in the manner of wearing the
hair, which taste, fashion, and convenience
display, is even greater than the varieties OF
..'ade and color.
The Hebrew women braided their tresses
and secured them with gold and silver pins.
The Roman maids and matrons dressed their
hair with pearls and gems, garlands of flow
ers and bright ribbons. False curls were

for week, and the fat will have become
pomade la heliotrope.
The same process may be gone through
with all the other flowers mentioned. A lady
may in this manner make her own perfume,
and we may add, in the words of Mr.. Piesse,
zone that she cannot obtain for love or mon
ey at the perfumer's"
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1874-08-20

PERFUMEs-It is generally supposed that
all the essences of flowers are produced by
distillation. This is far from being the case
some of them would be seriously injured by
such process, and are caught and fixed, as
it were, by what may be termed tat-trap'
In the flower season at Cannes, plates of glass
are thinly covered with clarified inodorous
fat upon or under this fat the flowers are
placed, and the power this substance has to
absorb and retain perfumes is astonishing.
On these sheets of glass the most delicate
odors are thus fixed almost as securely as, on
the collodion prepared plates, the most deli
cate pictures are retained. In this way the
iessamine, the violet, the tuberose, and orange
perfumes travel across France, and arrive
here as pure as the day they were given forth
from the flowers themselves. The emanclpa-
ton of the odor from its Imprisonment is very
simple; the fat, cut into small cubes, is placed
in spirits of wine, and the delicate essence i'm
mediately deserts the coarse fat for the more
spiritual solvent
Mr.. Piesse, in his interesting work on per-
fumery, says that, "while cultivators of gar.
dens spend thousands for the qualification of
the eye, they altogether neglect the nose.
Why should we not grow flowers for their
odors as we'll as colors?" And we may add
that ladies may easily utilize some Of our own
waste garden perfumes Heliotrope, the lily
of the valley, honeysuckle, myrtle, Glove,
pink, and wallfower perfumes, such as we get
in the shops, are made-up odors cunningly
contrived from other flowers. Yet they may
be made pure with little trouble, II want
heliotrope pomade' says Mr.. Piessein despair !;
81 would buy any amount that l could gel"
And the way to get it is very simple If
there is a glue-pot in the house, and it hap
pens to be clean, fill it with clarified fat, set
it near the hot-house fire, or any other fire,
just to make the fat liquid, and throw in as
many heliotrope flowers as possible; let them
remain for twenty-four hours, strain off the
fat, and add fresh ones; repeat this process

POWER OF BEARING HEAT.-It is general
ly supposed that the human frame cannot en-
dure great heat, and if exposed to it will soon
sink in exhaustion. This is true in hot eli
mates, to which people have not been accus-
toned. But in this case the effect may be
due to influences from vegetation, or to some
disturbances of nature.
1t is certain that artificial heat, far greater
than the heat of the sun in the torrid zone,
may be borne without special suffering or
harm. The British Journal of Science says
that men in iron establishments work without
inconvenience with the thermometer constant
ly at 120 degrees, and in pits for making the
Bessemer steel at 14O degrees. In Turkish
baths the shampooers are often busily engaged
for four or FIVE hours in succession, with the
temperature at 11O degrees. In the Red Sea
steamers the stoke hole marks 145 degrees,
and in enamel works the operators are com.
PEELED daily to endure heat Of 300 degrees.
The elastic power of the human body in ac'
commodating itself to extremes is wonderful.
