Growth of the Hair.

There are three reasons why
women's hair is longer than
mems: First, she has no hair
growth on her face, and SO has
alargcr supply of hair-forning
material for the scalp; second,
the diameter of her hair being
larger, it is less liable to break;
third, being usually less engaged
in mental labor or business wor-
ry, she has a more constant and
even supply of blood to the
scalp. In nations where the
hair of the men is usually worn
short, the fashion of long hairin
the male is regarded as q pro-
test against church and state,
and against general customs,
taste, and thought; in Austria
it is made a political offence to
be SO attired..
The growth of the hair is the
most rapid in the young aud
and in those living
IN outdoor life. At the age of
if man lives so long,
and if his hair and beard have
been close-trimmed, he has cut
off six and half inches of hair
or almost thirty feet
N all.
The hair is the least destruct-
bic part of the body. The hair
of the ancient Thebans is, after
! lapse of 1000 years, found to
lave survived the tombs. The
Pyramids and the Sphinx are
,rumbling, but some of the wigs
If human hair, exposed to the
mold and moisture of their en-
ombed apartments, are less de-
,ayed than the monuments
themselves.
There are three coloring pig
nents to the hair-yellow, red,
md black, and all the shades
ire produced by the mixture of <
hese three colors. In pure gold
'ellow hair there is only the yell
ow pigment; in red, the red
mixed with yellow; in dark, the
black mixed with red and yell
ow; in the hair of the negro
here is as much rcd pigment as
II the reddest hair, and had not
he black been most developed
perhaps by the action OF the
un-the hair of all negroes
would be as fiery a red as the
eddest hair of an Englishman

Could the people ask to substantiate the

the fact that they have not only yearly grown
in popular favor in this country, but the
foreign demand for them has become so
great as to necessitate the establishing q

Discovery is concentrated, potent, altera-

Evading a Fare.

The stealing of pin is apparently
slight offence. Yet it may reveal
character as clearly as the theft of a
hundred dollars. Some years ago there
lived in New York a shrewd old msr-
chant named Aymar. He used to receive
cargoes of mahogany and logwood,
which were sold at auction.
On one occasion q cargo was to be
sold at Jersey City, and all hands started
from the auctioneer's store to cross the
ferry. Whom they were going through
the gate, Mr.. Aymar noticed one of tho
largest sbuyers slip through the gate
without paying the five-cent fare. BE
told the auctioneer not to take a bid
from that man.
"Why," said the auctioneer, with an
expression of surprise, II thought he
was good"
$50 did l." answered Mr.. Aymar;
"but I have changed my mind, and
will not trust him dollar"
A few months proved the accuracy of
the Judgment of Mr.. Aymar, for the
slippery merchant failed. and did not
pay five cents on the dollar. It does
not by any means follew that business
disaster will come as a retribution to a
