Thin hair is thickened, falling hair

occasional use will prevent the hair

Gloves in Early Times,

The manufacture of gloves has been
an important trade in France from early
times. In 100, or thereabout Char le.
magne granted an unlimited right to the
Abbott and monks of Sithin to make
gloves from the skins of the deer they
killed. The council of AK, c;rca 829,
prohibited the inferior clergy from
wearing anything but sheep-skin gloves.
Before this the Fathers of the Church
had iuveighed against the practice of
glove wearing as e8eminate. The glovers
of Paris constitute consid-
cradle community, having statutes and
laws dating back to 1190, which were
confirmed, added to, and renewed by
Louis XIV. in 1866. The word glove
being of Anglo-Saxon origin-Prof.
Skeat says it is referred to in the poem
of Beowulf under the name Glof-it is
conjectured by some that the Saxons
introduced the trade of glove making
into England. Gloves do not appear to
have been worn here before Ithe end of
the tenth or the beginning of the
eleventh century, and at that time they
were of special German manufacture;
as five pairs of gloves formed no small
part of the duty paid to Ethelred II. by
q society Of German merchants for the
protection of their trade in this country,
which Strut observes was q proof of
their great rarity, and consequent limi-
tation to the most exalted personages.
Gloves were not generally worn in Eng
Land until the fourteenth century, when
they became popular with the better
classes, who carried them in their hands,
according to Fairholt; but not until the
sixteenth century do We find constant
allusi0n to them.-AH tie Year Round.

NIGHT AND MORNING.

Was it lie that they told me,
Was it pitiess hoax?
A sop for my soul aud its longing,
Only to cOz7n and cOax2
And . voice came do wn through tbs nj ;ht an
rain:
"Tney lied; thou hast trusel in vain"
Must vanish off-hand into darkness,
Blown ut.with breath like Iamp7
have noughti In the future to le0k to -
Save r0tting in darkness and damp?
And the answer came with . knocking hiss:
Thou hast nothing to look to save this"
What of the grave and its conquest,
OF death and the loss of its sting?
Was 1t only the brag OF mailman
Who believed an impossible thing?
And the voice returned as the voice Of ghost:
1t was but madman's boast"
Am the serf Of my senses,
Ia my soul slave without rights?
Are feeding and breeding and sleeping
Ny first and truest deliihts?
And the cruel answer cut me afresh:
"rhon art but the serf Of thy flesh"
Is 1t all for naught then travail,
That long for leisure from sin,
That | thirst for the pure and perfect,
And feel like a god within?
he voice replied to my passionate thought
Thy longing and travail is nought."
TAen bowed my head in my anguish.
Folding my facein my hands,
And shuddered as one that sinketh
In the clutch of quaking sands.
And stared, as clenched my fingers tight,
Out through the blank black night.
For life was shorn of its meaning,
And cried, "Oh, God, isitso?
Utter the truth though it STAY me,
Utter 1t, yes or no?'
But heard no answer to heal my pain,
Save the bluster of wind and rain.
And behold, as sat in my sorrow;
A quick raw shot out from the east,
Another. aud then another.
And knew that night had ceased.
And the dark clouds rolled away to the west
As the great sun rose from his rest.
And now, ~ the fair dawn broadened
Strong and joyous and bright,
Ny whole soul swept to meet It,
Rapt with deep delight;
And new voice rang down the radiant skies;
"Rejoice, have heard thee; arise!''
Good Words.
