The Craziest Craze Yet.

"Y ou can never tell what these wo-
men are going TO do next, "said loqua-
cious barber in one of the large Chicago
hotel shops to a reporter as he forced
about half a pint of lather into the
Scribe's alabaster ear. snow that
elegantly dressed lady just going out of
the door has had her hair cut off as
close as yours Is all over her head.
She has done it simply because il is the
proper thing to do, and will probably
ruin most luxuriant CROP"
"You don't mean to tell me that the
practice of 'aOcking' women's hair is
becoming common in Chicago?" queried
the hirsute newspaper man, becoming
somewhat interested.
ut certainly is. Why, it already
amounts to q Craze L think that
woman is the third we have clipped >
to-day, and we have averaged two or
three day for month past"
''Is 1t for the sake of comfort that
this fashion is coming into vogue?''
NO; l think it is because of the
novelty of it. 1t gives some women a
very striking appearance whichis really
very improving. Others appear abso-
lutely absurd, and probably feel very
much worse than they look after it is
all done. 1t is simply the result OF
desire to be noticed. TO be looked at, to
attract the comment and admiration of
peops as foolish as themselves. In the
summer time, when heavy head of
hair must be a burden to a woman,
there might be some sense in the craze
but at this season il must be a great
piece OF folly to give up such wonder
full protection against the violent winter
weather. To cut even a mans hair
close to the head in this uncertain eli
mate at this season of the year, is dan
gerOus, but the exposure is nothing
compared with Cropping the hair of a
grown woman"
Are most of these women young or
old?n
''Oh, all ages; but mostly middle-aged
and young women from ~ years of age
upward. You can never tell what
woman will do with her hair, or what
sort of fool she will marry"
"Dont some of these women have
their hair cut in the hope that it will
grow out stronger, thicker and heavier
in consequence"
81 don't believe they do. for that is
great mistake. Ii has not been my eX-
perience that women'S or mems hair
grow out any thicker and heavier after
cutting or shaving 1t. WomeR's hair
that is wavy or curly more often than
not comes in again straight and no
heavier than before. Nature gives
people certain grade of hair, and if
they will not take care of it, no amount
of cutting will help it, Brushing the
hair and taking care of the general
health are the sure means of keeping the
hair fine and beautiful

The Empress Ecgenie.

Those who have seen the ex-Empress
of the French lately cannot help con-
trasting the face of fifteen years ago
with the face that has looked on the ter
rible scenes that followed Sedan, the
dead husband at ChiselhurSt. and the
dead son who was brought home TO her
from the plains of Zululand. Hose
who saw the imperial lady in Paris six
teeeE or eighteen years ago have no n or
gotten how beautiful she was. "Doant
she deserve throne for her beauty?n
said an American gentleman who saw
her for the first time i'll Paris. She
united the most handsome features Of
the German and Latin races-the fore
head high and free the eyes splendidly
blue. but not very;large; the hair Of a
slightly darkened hue; the form of her
face small, oval; the nose fine, in beau
tiful symmetry, but not too high; the
mouth trifle too large, especially when
she smiled, and the least bit Jewish.
Her whole appearance suggested beau
tlful model for a Hebe-neck, shoul-
ders, arms and above all. her hands
beautifully shaped, and all this cOmbi-
ned with The wItching grace of an An
dalusian danSeuse. But time an sOr-
row have wrought their changes. The
beauty has been swept by the rough
fingers of adversely, and the lady,
whose suite consists of a few faithful
French friends, is no longer that bright
particular star that shone so long in the
galaxy of Partisan fashion and splen-
dor.

Dinner Giving.

Givers of dinners should lose no time
in making themselves acquainted with
all that has been written by the great
masters of gastronomy. The following
golden rules of Brillat-Salvarin should
be committed to memory:
"Let not the number of guests ex.
ceed twelve, so that the conversation
may be general. Let them be so selec-
ted that their occupations shall be
varied, their tastes similar, their points
of contact so numerous that to intro
duce them shall scarcely be necessary.
Let the dining room be superbly
lighted, the cloth of exquisite fitness
and gloss the temperature of the room
from 600 to $50 Fahrenheit.
Let the men be cultivated, without
pretensiOns; and the ladies charming
without coquetry.
''Let the dishes be exceeding choice,
but not too numerous; and every wine
tirstrate Of its kind.
LET the order of dishes be from the
substantial to the light, and OF wines
from the simplest to those Of richest
bouquet.
''Let the business of eating be very
slow, the dinner being the last act or
the days. drama; and let the guests and
host consider themselves as so many
travellers iourneying leisurely towards
the same destination.
Let the coffee be hot and the liquor
be chosen by the host.
"Let the drawing-room be large
enough for game of cards, if any of
the guests cannot do withoGs it, and
yet have space enough remaining for
after-dinner conversation.
LET the guests be retained by the at
fractions of the party, and animated
with the hope of some evening meeting
again under the same pleasant auspices. |
''Let not the tea be too strong; let the |
.oast be buttered IN the most scientific |
let the punch be prepared to |
perfection.
''Let no one depart before IL O'Clock |
Ind no one be in bed later than r.

Senator Nye Was uOs so particularly
witty in debate, and the speeches of
Proctor Knott, McCreery or Sam Cox
we're funnier than his were; neither had
ne any Senatorial dignity whatever.
He had, in its place, a vast store OF
humor and genial humanity-better

humor than wit, although many of his
good things possessed the sharp scintil-
htions of the last mentioned article, as
when Horace Greeley sat down on the
Senator's new hat, and picking up the
crushed stovepipe, he said, gravely: Il
could have told you it wouldn't fit

dinner, emotional insanity was being
discussed, he remarked: II admit the

Champagne.

The Faculty of Paris in 171S pro-
nounced champagne to be the finest and
healthiest of all wines, and, except in
cases of weak digestion, is, if pure, one
of the safest wines that can be drankt

board in this country-so much so that
when bottle" of wine is proposed, it
is understood to be be champagne.
unless some other is expressly men-
mentioned. ''Its Intoxicating effects
are rapid, but exceedingly transient,
and depend partly upon the carbonic
acid, which is evolved from it, and
partly upon the alcohol, which is sus-
pended III the gas, being rapidly and
extensively applied To large surface of
the stomach" The idea that cham
payne produces gout Is erroneous,
though it is to be avoided whe.e that
disease already exists. 1t Is mistaken
idea that champagne must be swallowed
as soon as possible after it is uncorked.
If it is real and good champangne it
improves by letting it stand little, as
after the gas has partly escaped, it will
entirely retain the flavor and body OF
the wine, which is, to some extent, con-
cealed by its effeIvescence. This Is the
best test OF good champagne.

The braiding prevents much snarlihg. Where ones hair is thin quinine lotion will pre- vent it's falling out and give life to the roots The Parisian fasbiens for dressing children's hair are as follows: Rfhglsts are most favor ed for babies. Little boys ha7e curls in the back and bangs in front.
 Little girls have their hair waved and fall- ing down the back, with colored ribbon to keep it in place. Some young girls have re- vived the fashion of light hair nets, with large meshes, in which the hair falls loose and as low down as the middle of the back This style shows the hair to great advantage, and will probably meet with great approval. From sixteen to seventeen years ct age the hair is worn high and twisted on the top of the head. With this method of arranging the hair round hats have no elastics, so as not to conceal any part of the pretty waves which the hair forms when thus raised from the naps of ths neck. The hat is fastened to the hair by stsel pin with shell or jet head.
