HEALTH HINTS.
The Care oft Hair.

The care Of the hair is an important
branch Of fashion at all times, though of.
ten fashion dictates All injudcious treat.
ment and prescribcs modes against all rules
of health and reason. Such Importance has
been given to the hair that some philosu-
pliers make the chignon, coils and puilS
the index Of civilization, and show how
eecentricity in hair-dress and coifture mark s
the degradation OF the times.
1t is we'll understood that masses OF
false hair injnre natural growth, but a
freak of fashion which seems harmless may
be made equally hurtful. This apparently
innocent fashion is that of nuifiness and
lightness of the hair produced hy continual
washing. The best specialists on treatment
of the hair say that the hair should be
washed once i'll six weeks and not oftener,
and that CASTLE soap and borax, soda, Oh
any other drying material should be used.
After washing it is well to rub the scalp
with some reliable ointment. The natural
oil, which to some appear Objectionable,
Is the life-giving ointment of the hair and
shoulu not De destroyed. Dry hair has a
dead appearance, the ends split and growtl'
is retarded. The fine comD is most hurt
ful, but soft brush, used iudeously,
gives vigor to the scalp and keeps it in a
healthy condition.
The practice of cutting the ends Of tie
hail is useful, aud can be accomplished
easily by brading the hair aud then cnt-
ting the ends. The care of the hair is Ger
tainly as important as that Of teeth, but is
much more neglected. The rules Of its pres
ervation are simple and important Vigor-
GUS brushing, cutting the ends when ncces-
sary, washing with CASTLE soap once in six
weeks, and the desirable avoidance Of false
hair shunld preserve and strengthen tie
hair.

Sam Jones is Methodist preacher of Bars
tow county, Ga, who had sprung into fame
as one of the most original characters of the
south. Public attention was first attracted
to him by series of revival sermons which
he preached in Nashville, Tenn, few weeks
ago.
He declares iu his sermons that he was a
gambler, drunkard, and the worst of men
until he was converted twelve years ago
Men who knew him in youth and when he
was pract'cing law in early manhood, as
sert that he was thoroughly depraved and
and d'sSipatcd, though imrulsive and reck-
less rather than essentially bad
Since his conversion he has devoted
himself to evangelical preaching. 1t is ra-
ther strange that, though he has spoken in
many parts of the country, and among
Others in Brooklyn, where, in January of the
present year, he conducted very successful
revival service in Dir. Talmage's church, his
pithy sayings are now taken up and repeated
for the filst time.
The following are some of the bright say
ers, both North and South:
Il detest theology and botany, but l love
religion an d flowers.''
''The great trouble with preachers in this
good day is that they are so elegant that they
always refer to hell as the burnt district
Fhlssoit of dignity is the starch of shroud.
You say you have doubts; if you quit your
meanness, I'll be responsible for your doubts. ;
"A man never had doubt but which, if
he pulled it up by the roots, had seed at
the bottom; and that seed, sin.'

whiskey is an old humbug."
when the doctor says you can't live but
an hour longer, you'll want just such a
preacher as mysclftalking to you"
'God bores through the top of mans

Pm tired of hearing those liquor-dealers

SATURDAY, SEPT. Ie, 1855.
DR.. Caldwell at St. Paul's

There was an unusually large gathering
at St. Paul's NJ. E. Church last Sunday
morning to hear the new president of Della
ware College speak. Numbers, of course,
went there to make their first acquaintance
with President Caldwell, being very natur-
ally spurred to the opportunity of seeing one
who holds such prominent position as one
Of the leading educators of the state.
DIR. Caldwell is well known to the regular
congregation of st. Paul's and to Metho-
dists generally of this state. Much ex-
tremely favorable comment was made not
alone upon the Doctors delivery and elo-
quence but upon his breadth and liberality
of handling the subject under consideration.
The president strikes those who hear him
for the first time as possessing a mind stor-
ed with profound thought yet not limited
by any lack of versatility. His diction is
remarkable for graphic description and at
tractive illustration. He is sedate and de-
Lucrative, the very ideal of a college presi-
dent. His style of oratory is free from as
sertiveness, quiet and persuasive, and cal
culated to impress an audience with the la
tent power of the speaker.
Last Sunday morning Dir. Caldwell gave
for his text the last three verses of the
fourth Psalm. The greater part of the dis
course, however, turned upon the words
''Fhere be many that say, who will show us
any good''-"Here is great question, my
brethren, the speaker said, ''anl you see
that it receives a grand answer. Who will
show us any good or, more correctly, with
the word any omitted, as it does not be-
long to the text, is in italics, and does not
remove but rather throws obscurity upon
the passage. Who will show us how to g.
cape from wretchedness, sorrow, discomfort.
edness, pain, and death. 1t is the greatest
question that was ever presented to the hu-
man mind, the solution Of which ran make
a heaven Of earth. There arc variety Of
questions that engrass our minds art, liter
ature, politics, business, etc, Nut none that
The Wilmingtonian., 1885-09-12
Tin show US good?


The great question Of all ages and condi-
tions has been, who will make us happy
In the little ones mind, in its wailings, its
agony, you see in its little face the cry
who will take this pain from me, who Will
relieve me? Look, as you tread the streets
Of great city aud scan the features Of the
passers-by, you see on their faces wrinkles
you find sweet conttntment upon their
brow!-Why? They are asking "Whu will
show us any good? They are hurrying,
rushing after the dollar--Business Busin-
ess! They are spurrcd on aggravate to
continual unrest. In business, in pleasure
in the theatre, in the bar-room in every
place their hearts ask in eternal unrest who
will show us good?
But nearly all men fall in error. Look at
that bright, happy, young man and woman
who say this is tile way for hearts casc--wc
say, NO, this is the path Of peace! No,
they reply, not now, but bye and bye. Here
is music and Brightness that is shadow and
darkness. But bye and bye the brightness
ends in darkness and death. Oh, come back,
walk where you shall ftud rest for your
soul-,tO the strait and narrow way, and
your soul shall find rest.
The youth says, cannot be gloomy and
sOrrowful, But religion is not of that nature
Satan has deceived you. The madness Of
pleasure is the first thing that gets hold. But
after while things will change. There come
cares and manifold troubles Your lives are
lives Of care. Go to those people full of the
business and cares of the world
They tell you 81 have no time to think of
death, have my daily business to attend to,
bills to meet and arrange, credits to look after.
Everybody is full of the thought Of hasten
ing to be rich, even when misfortune stalcs
them in the face they hope something will
turn up. Go into that mau's midday dreams
or night visions. He thinks Of broad aclcs
and fine mAnsions The rich man invests in

builds Of the best stone, as il he were to live
forever, it is in these various ways men show
themselves affected by riches. The dram
drinker, the tramp, the gambler,-al their
hearts ars cropping aud hungorng for 1t.
But as soon as one looks up to righteousness
lie says "why this is what have hccn look
ing for, hearts ease and happiness the light
of Gods countenance The form Of God con.
stitutes among some the highest pleasure.
In Ulden times of the harvest home cx-
preston was given to the highest feelings OF
pastoral happiness at the times of the in,
crease Of riches. You must then take these
terms of the increase of wine and oil as en-
blematical of the extreme joy of those pen.
pie. Whenever success shall perch upon yOul
brow, remember, there is joy greater still,
the light Of Gods countenancc. Well dc
remember fifty years ago, when the light
first came into this poor heart, the gladuesS
that came to me above all that of buyish joy
