 The Advantage Of Being c Blonde,

Every year we get the cry from fashion writers, "Blondes are no longer in style; they have been superseded by their dark or sisters,l etc. Now, that's all bosh. You can't do away with tho blonde, and banged hair. Pre-eminently the blonde is the beauty of civilization.
 She is among us to stay as such, and you can't drive her away. A
 brunette now and then may rise su premc over her by reason of won derful loyeliness, but I'm speaking collectively. A woman can dress more effectively with blonde hair
 than with dark: It lights up better and more youthful. A well kept
 blonde has ten years advantage in
 point of youthful looks with the ay-
 craze brunette. Mind you, once in a life time or so there arises q mir aculous brunette who completely surpasscs her, but for steady going, ordinary good looks that make no pretensions to great beauty the blonde carries the palm. You can't exponge her in favor of the bru- nette, even in literature. In the novels turned out during the past year there have been 372 blondes to each 100 blancttes.

! Fairy's Order.
BY LILLE E. BARR.

An orderly Spring to the spinners was brought,
Who curious laces for ages have wrought;
With wild goose quill twas writ in ring
On the yellow tip of a butterfy's wing.
Dear little brown spinner the fairy said,
"Get out your long needles and fine white
thread
And make me veil that is thinner than air
And brighter than sunshine caught in a snare.
"Stretch it and bind it and weave it all through
With exquisite shades of exquisite hue
Catch upits corners with tassels ofdeW;
With perfume of Violets scent it all through
1.-THE lily and rose have promised no less
Than velvety leaves for beautiful dress,
White petticoats twenty, rufied and lined
With crimply pinks, the daisies will find.
"Fne sandals of gold the cowslips will bring
With ribbons of grass to tie for the string,
With stockings Of purple and carriers of white,
All buckled with dew to hold them up tight.
$50, little brown spinner spin me with care
A veil that is finer than sunshine or air;
For the fairest of fairies married will be
To the King of the Fairies who dwell inthe sea-"

The Emperor of Germany has, late in
life, joined the ranks of artists as a sculp-
tor, or rather as a modeller. When he was
last at Ems he gave sittings TO the eminent
sculptor, Professor Keil, for bust
Among the numerous decorations which he
wore was the grand star of the order "Pour
lie Merite." The emperor, dissatisfied with
the position in which Professor Keil re-
produced his star on the clay model, erased
it, and with his own hands carefully re-
modelled it an inch or two higher up on
til left breast. The new star was not, per-
haps, as deity executed as the old one had
been, for, as the emperor laughlngy Sala,
it was his first effort; but Professor Aen
obtained permission to leave it exactly @n
had been left, and cheap plaster repllc's :"
the model, which thus acquired pecui1i
interest, are now being sold by THOUSANDS
throughout Germany.

| The western and northwestern States were
arranged each side of the New England
Headquarters. It is wonderful the amount
of work that has been accomplished by
the extreme western States in everything.
| had thought they were SO new that their
exhibit would be but meagre compared
with older States, but they are far ahead
of us in many things, particularly in their
educational exhibits, their grains and min
eral display. Passing around, and for a
considerable length, are transparencies
with pictures Of scenery taken from the
northwest, which, as the light passes through
them, are beautiful to behold, making one
almost envy those who have looked upon
| the real scenes.
We all know about the Arkansas exhibit,
so will pass that by, only making my best
bow to the gentlemen who were so kind
and courteous and patient in replying to
my questions. In Missouri [ noticed an
invention by Miss Mary Nolan of Saint
Louis. It was fire proof building brick
and model house built of it, and de8crip-
ton of how it is put together.
Some ecclesiastical embroidery done in a
convent, is exquisite The threads used in
working human faces being SO fine as not
to be distinguished from the satin upon
which it is wrought, it looks more like
painting than work done with the needle,
the expression Of the faces is perfect.
Alabama, among other beautiful things,
had complete train Of cars made of grains
and native grasses. Kentucky, Tennessee
and Georgia had splendid display of
grains and cotton manufactures, besides a
beautiful exhibit in the Woman's Depart
ment.
In Mississippi stood large glass case,
containing most literal illustration of the
nursery rhyme, "Who killed Cock Robin ?"
Jenny Wren, wears widows Grape veil,
was bending over the coffin, in which
Robin lay, wiping away her tears with a
tiny, black bordered handkerchief. The
Rock stands, book in hand, and robed like
a parson, wearing spectacles. The owl,
looking very grave and wise, lea u|ol
his shovel waiting the time when he must,
in closing the grave, end the mournful
scene. Everything in the forest seems to

of Life.
Some days ago the dispatches gave an
item about Texas woman who jumped
into a well 1GS feet deep and was taken
out alive. The Floresyille Tex. } Chyoni-
Gle gives the following extraordinary YER
sion of the affair
''hLrs. Hurley. wife Of &. c. Hurley and
sister of W. T. Neal. two of the men who
are in Jail under Indictment for the muir
der of OVerstreet near Fairview last
spring, was in town on Monday to see her
husband and brother. Being a very de-
voted wife, she was in great mental agony.
On Monday night she went to the resi-
dence of Mr.. A. J. Lewis, whose wife is
relative, to spend the night. She retired
late at night, still unrecOnciled. Some
time after midnight Mrs. Lewis was
awakened by u terrible noise IN the yard,
and, jumping out of bed, made search for
the lady, who could not be found. On
going TO the well near by she heard the
lady calling from the well, which was
l0i feet deep. into which the lady jumped
to end her lite, but was apparently not
seriously hurt. An attempt was made by
those present to draw her out, but after
getting good way up she fell back, and
no more was heard from her, and her
friends supposed her dead. The authori-
ties ia town were notified, and Drs. Irwin
and Garrison. County Attorney Stevenson
and Justice Jennings with jury OF in-
quest repaired TO the placed early Tues
day morning hut the lady was found TO
be living. MIR. Tom Collins was sent down
and placed a rope about her and she was
drawn out aud every attention. given her
that could be. Strange 30 say, her limbs
were none OF them broken, although she
is thought to be seriously II not fatally in
| jured internally, and not much hope is
entertained of her recovery. She had a
beautiful little babe only one month old,
who VIII perhaps never know the care OF
! loving mother.
"Since the above was put in type we
learn from DIR. Garrison, who is Just in
from visiting the sick lady, that she is
much better and Ia fair way TO recover,
though in "A critical condition. She is
thoroughly at herself now, and disclaims
any suicidal intent, but says she must
have been asleep, AS she has no recOlleo-
tiOn of anything about the matter until de-
scending in the well awOke or brought her
! TO consciousness"

and believed 20 be suffering from case of
blondine poisoning, is attracting atten-
tion from the medical fraternity. The
woman was taken from the house Of Mad.

cerning this composition, and al pro-

heard Of we'll authenticated case of
poisoning from its use. Black hair DYES
are, however, sometimes dangerous. and
occasionally produce scalp diseases and
various kinds Of indispoeitiOns. The
blondes do not, because they are never
made of strong drugs.
The woman Gessner is, however. un-
donbtedly suffering from the effects OF a
very cOpiOus use Of the blOndine. It was
learned that she would pour whole bottles
full upon her head, after first washing II
