EABITS OF TIE HAlB.

A p,ematurely bald physician in Thirty
fifth street was asked number of cues
tions about the growth and habits of the
hair.
g In the first place." he said, "do you
know what hair is, anyway"
"Only In genera, way, perhaps"
Then let me tell you in word. 1t il
an elongated epidermic sppendage. Its es
scntlal structure consists of an assembiage
! OF epidermic cells, at the bottom of the
| flask, shaped follste, in the substance oil
the skin, supplied with blood by vessels
distributed to its walls"
"Can hair be made to grow on bald
head -
Not as rule. In debilitated persons
the hairs sometimes fall out spontaneously
or with slight assistance, and if the bull
alone comes away, and the sheath and germ
remain behind, they are capable of repro
dacing the hair, under proper treatment OF

pointed hairs on the scalp OF old people
show that new shafts are constantly form.

skin, also affect the nutrition of the hair. y
"What causes premature badness ?"
" In a great measure the violation of by.

race"

ers?"
"Well, scme well-informed people think
that 1t Is about the same in all civilized
countries +; but, if there is any difference,
it is because of the hurried and unhealth-
full habits of life aad mental exercise among
Americans"
"What is the chemical action which
produces gray hair?"
" Accurately speaking, that's one OF
those things that no fellow can find out.
The color of the hair depends partly on the
presence of pigment granules, and partly
on the existence of air spaces, which cause
1t to appear dark by transmitted light. In
Albinos and gray haired people this color.
ing matter is simply absent"
" Is 1t the case that hair may, from ex-
treme fright or other strong emotions, turn
white, as it is said, in single night:
" IL is an urdOu6ted fact. Just how the
| change takes place Is a matter of con-
lecture. But it may perhaps be explained
| by some chemical action upon the oily mat
ter. This oily matter would be Withdrawn
from the hair under conditions Of cold,
debility, Or insufficient food"
Does gray hair then become dead?"
Not by any means. The loss of vital.
| Ity does not necessarily follow the loss Of
color, for gray hair often grows vigorously
For that matter hair will grow after the
bodys death. One of the causes Of
premature badness and grayness is tightly
fitting and unyielding hats"
+" Are any of the thousand and one
preparations for restoring the hair of any
value?"
"Tonics and stimulating applications
are sometimes beneficial. When the hail
is thin and falls out easily shaving the
scalp will often produce thicker, firmer
and darker growth.-[N. Y. Sun.

Mr.. Dillon would say about it, but our
true love, which had to wait so long, this

ChrIntiancy Divorce SUD.

Special to the Cincinnati Commercial
WASHINGTON, May 26.-Referring
to the Ohristiancy suit, the Post says:
The examination of ex-senator Chris
tiancy has not yet been concluded,
and it is intimated that there will be
some more and highly sensational de-
velopments ere the testimony in the
case closes.
For several weeks past Mrs. Chris
tiancy has not attended upon the ses-
sions of the examiner. 1t was not
compulsory and she preferred to re-
main away, but couple of days since
she put in an appearance under cir
cumstances that cannot be considered
very complimentary or in keeping with
good judgment. Recently the hus-
band has put in evidence the deposi-
tions Of witnesses to show improper
intimate relations as having existed
between her and Mr.. George W
Haigbt, OF Hartford, Connecticut
and her recent visit to that city
where he engaged rooms for her and
frequently met her day and night
Last Tuesday, handsomely and be.
comingly attired in new and stylish
costume, she was seen passing along
the front of the City Hall Park, es
corted by a gentleman also fashionably
attired. They went over to the Office
of Messrs. Cuppy & Ingersoll, where
| ex Senator Christiancy was there tes-
tifying. and the two walking to the
| door OF the room, she knocked and the
door was opened and at a glance the
attorneys recognized her companion as
| Mr.. George W. Haight, but did not
speak, excepting her counsel, whom
she expressed wish to see. lie passed
into the hallway where short con.
sultation ensued, and then Mr.. Haight
and Mrs. Christiancy departed to-
gether and the hearing was resumed
1t was thought that the object Of the
visit was to provoke a scene If SC
intended, the purpose failed, as neither
the husband nor counsel cendescended
to give the bold move more than a
passipg notice.

Congressional.

WASHINGTON, May 29.-As soon as
the reading of the journal was ended,
Mr.. Reed called up for consideration
the proposed amendment to the rules,
prohibiting dilatory motions on con-
tested election cases. The question
Of consideration was instantly raised
by Mr. Randall, and that was followed
by motion of Mr.. Kenna to adjourn,
and by one Of Mr.. Blackburn, that
when the House adjourns it be
to Wednesday, stating as the reason
that Tuesday is Decoration Day. On
the latter motion the yeas and nays
were ordered, and tactics of obstruc-
thus put into operation. The
vote on Blackburns motion was
announced: Yeas, 2; nays, 145. The
Speaker declared the motion lost.
Thereupon Mr.. Randall moved that
when the House adjourn to day, it be
to Thursday next. On that Mr.. Reed
made point. .of'orde that the propo-
sitiOn to amend tho rules for dilatory
motions cannot be entertained. Mr.
Randall denied the right Of the Speaker
to put any such construction
on his motion. Mr.. Reed
proposed to fully discuss the point
of order, and suggested limit be put
on at discussion. No agreement,
no er to that end was made, and
the Speaker said he would not make
the limitation less than an hour on
each side. Mr.. Reed then opened the
discussion. He claimed the House
had, under the constitution, certain
powers expressly conferred upon it.
powers which it could exercise
without let or hindranee o.
any other body; powers which
it could not surrender, which it
could not trade away, which it must
perform, and the first of those powers
was to judge of election returns and
the qualifications of its own members,
This House had been endeavoring for
the last ten days to perform that duty,
but had been prevented by dilatory
motions. The best and most orderly
way to put stop to that course was tc
amend the rules, and that waS'his OBJ.
