In the Dolman Country.

The Breton men look like overgrown
bows with their short waistcoats and
shorter jackets, ornamented with numer-
Gus rows of pearl buttons. The cloth
trousers are full, and the universal sabots
complete one end of the costume. At
the other end is a wide-brimmed low
felt or straw hat, on which it is indis-
pensable to wear black velvet trimming,
with two long black velvet tails hanging
behind. Leather boots are kept for Sum
days and fetes, and the smartness on
those occasions appear to run mostly into
the waistcoat, the colored braiding on
which is almost eastern in its gorgeous
ness. The skirts of the women's dresses
are gathered into a broad band at the
waist, kerchief or shawl being worn over
the shoulders The hair is plated into
a broad band, which is doubled on itself; /;
and the muslin cap has two long lappets,
orears which are folded back on the
head, forming large loops. As for the
peasants themselves, the majority of whom
farm their own small domains, they bear
a toil-worn stamp very markedly, especi-
ally the women. The bare-legged wo-
men and girls seem to take their share,
or rather more than their share, in the
hardest field labor, and their lot is very
far removed from what an English eye
would like to see. Many features of the
country life remind one of Ireland, but
the ingrained idea of the French peas
ant to put by francs seems to carry them
bravely through the sternest eircum-
stances. Still, with all their moiling,
they must be very poor. The houses in
the out-of-the-way villages are little bet
ter than novels, in which the cows fire.

furniture in which luxury is displayed
is the bedstead, which is generally a
piece of ornamental woodwork, reaching
from floor to ceiling, with the bed five
feet from the floor, inclosed by curtains

is added to match the bed.-Londos So

BILE of permeation by fluids derived from
the blood--a transmission of fluids from
the blood vessels of the skin into the SUBJ
stance of the hair really occurs, the
quantity and nature being modified by
the popularity of constitution or state
of health of the individual-it follows
that such fluids, being altered in their
chemical qualities, may possess the pow
er of impressing new conditions on the
structure into which they enter. Thus,
if they contain an excess of salts of lime,
they may deposit salts of lime in the It's
sue of the hair, and so produce change
in its appearance from dark to gray"
Then he tells us: "The phenomenon
may be the result of electrical action;
it may be the consequence of a chem
ical alteration wrought in the very blood
itself, or it may be a conversion for
which the tissue of the hair is chiefly re-
sponsible." So many "may-bes from
terry of the sudden whitening of the hair
is yet unsolved. 1t is likely to remain
unsolved, since the doctor-more mod
est than many of his brethren-owns
that "the mysteries of vital chemistry
are unknown to man."
The whitening of the hair wrought by
mental disturbance is sometimes only of
partial nature. Vexation of spirit
gave Henry of Navarro a partly-colored
mustache. An old writer tells of an
IRISH Captain going to deliver himself
up to Lord Broghill, the Commander of
the English forces, who, being met on
his way by party of English soldiers.
was made prisoner, and was so appre-
hensive of being put to death before
Lord Broghill could interfere in his be-
half that the anxiety of his mind turned
some of his locks quite white, while the
others remained of their original red
dish hue. Perhaps the curious change
was less annoying to its victim than that
which befell an American girl whose
first intimaion of her lover falsity was
the reading an account of his marriage
in a newspaper. After a nights brood

ng-glass showed her that one side of
her head was still adorned with tresses
of golden brown; but the other, alas!
was. decked with locks more befitting a
grandma than a maiden still in her
teens; though even this was not so bad

FOR YOUNG HEARTS ONLY.

Oft in the Winter of our lives
We mourn the Springs departed hours,
And think what Joy 'twould be II Age
As well as Youth could find her flowers;
But much doubt were Spring to give
Some Of her blossoms TO December,
That they would seem as fair and sweet
As those we lovingly remember.
For violets blue and daisies white
In frost and cold would surely shiver,
And purple iris flags soon droop
II waving DER frozen river;
And so ts better as 1t is
For young hearts only are Springs pleas
ures;
We old ones, faith, must be content
To know that once we shared her treasures

The question of damages resulting
from an undeservedly unfavorable rating
by a mercantile agency has Just been
considered by the United States District
Court of Arkansas. The court laid down
the principle that if the agency acted in
good faith, using all reasonable precau-
tions to obtain trustworthy information,
and communicated this only upon the
application of subscriber whose interest
demanded such knowlege, then the mat
ter was privileged communication, and
the agency could not be held in damages.
On the other hand, it was ruled that if
the agency sent out the report indis-
criminately among its subscribers, with
out regard to whether they were in
terested in knowing the financial cendi-
ton of the firm, then the latter might re-
cover damages.-N. Y. Herald.

Mime. Modieska in Luck.

A private letter from Warsaw, in
Poland, says The Dramatic Times. tells
an interesting incident in connection
with Nine. Modjeska. She herself is Of
prebeian extraction, but her husband :
family are of long and noble descent.
They were intimately concerned in the
Polish insurrection of 1863. Some were
murdered, some were eXiled, and all
had their property confiscated by the
emperor of all the Russias. Mime. Mod
jeska has been making an effort for
three years to get the confiscations de-
creed against the family remitted. She
had made pretty fair progress under
the administration of Alexander H., but
his sudden death brought it TO an end
and the feeling in Russia against the
Poles was greatly embittered at the
time. 1t was not until this summer
that Nine. Modieska dared to make any
new move. While in Russia she had
made the acquaintance of n high Rus
sian dignitary-Schouval0t [ believe.
AT any rate he advised her to go straight
to the empress of Russia, and promised
to get her special audience. She start
ed for St. Petersburg, but when there,
spite of Schouvalof's influence, she
being Pole, excited suspicion in the
minds of timid officials. Never daunted,
she tried and tried again, and at length
was admitted to a private interview
with the empress, the emperor being
present. Two days after, a decree was
published, granting amnesty to the rel
atives of her husband, and restoring
their estates.

How Animals Helm Each Other.

Darwin in his descent of Man. has
many kind things TO say about animals.
Social animals, he tells us, perform
many little services for each other.
Horses nibble and cows lick each other.
Monkeys pick from each other thorns
and burs and parasites. Wolves, and
some other beasts of prey, hunt in packs,
and aid each other in attacking their
victims. Pelicans fish in concert. The
Hamadryas baboons turn over stones to
find insects, ETC., and when they come
to large one. as many as can stand
round turn it over together, and share
the booty.
Social animals mutually defend each
other. Brehm encountered In Abyssinia
great troop of balloons which were
crossing a valley; the latter were attack
ed by the dogs, but the old males i'm
mediately hurried down from the rocks.
and, with mouths wide opened, roared
so fearfully that the dogs precipitately
retreated. They were again encouraged
to the attack; but by this time all the
balloons had re-ascended the heights,
excepting a young one about six months
old, who, loudly calling for aid, climbed
on block OF rock, and was surrounded.
Now, one of the largest males, & true
hero, came down again from the noun
tain, slowly went to the young one, coaxed
him, and triumphantly led him away,
the dogs being too much astonished to
make an attack
On another occasion. an eagle seized
young monkey, which, by clinging to
a branch, was not at once carried off;
it cried loudly for assistance. upon
which the other members of the troop,
with much uproar, rushed to the rescue.
surrounded the eagle, and pulled out so
many feathers that he no longer thought
of his prey, but only how to escape.
