THE NEWEST FASHIONABLE
WRINKLE.

This time it is not the women, but
the men. There is to be a smooth
faced revival everywhere, among
statesmen, politicians, persons and
dudes. Beardless men, it is said, are
once more to rule the social world
Boards are to be plucked and faces
shaven. Thus absolutely hairless faces
are to be typical of ideal society men.
Coates, mutton chops, full boards and
mOustaches all must 90.
Already social correspondents are
defending the anti-beard iconoclasm by
asserting that the Romans, from the
days of ScipiO Africanus, considered
the beard a sign of barbarity With
Roman authority back of it the absO-
lutely irresistible among the fair sex,
and men with boards may not expect
favors. 1t is certain that Cesar, Cicero
and Cassius are represented in art aud
history as without boards, and Brutus,
who was something OF barbarian, is
pictured with a beard The beard
must 60.
1t is not necessary to 90 back to
/ Roman times to find authority for this
revival. The generation of statesmen
and social leaders who went out when
secession and civil war came in were
nearly all of them beardless. 1t wa,
the spirit of the facial age from Wash
ington to James Buchanan. A gener
alton ago the ideal leaders of gentle

faced men. Even Lincoln diG no

A JAPANESE HOUSE.

A New York dealer in Japanese goods |
has fitted into the back Of his store a
real japanese house III miniature. Only
two rooms, however are represented,
corresponding to our reception room
and parlor; but these are complete and
exact in detail. The house was brought
to America from Japan III sections, and
was put together by a Japanese artisan,
after their custom, without nails glue
forming the necessary substitute The
material for the framework is of Japa-
nese cedar bamboo; n strong, trans
parent paper form the little square panes
for the windows, glass being only used
by the lower classes. The mOuldings of
the rooms are of a very artistic and
beautiful pattern, and the ceilings are
bamboo braided i'll different designs
and colored in different shades of brown.
The floors are especially curious, being
made very elastic, q sort of split bamboo
or straw forming n padding underneath
the squares of mating, which are finish
ed separately with neat binding. The
rooms in a Japanese house are desig-
mated by the number of pieces of mat
ing required for each, rs the seven, six
or five matted room. The reception
room is furnished with sideboard with
a rounded front placed in one corner,
on which are richly Ornamented tea
caddies, a huge teapot and all the ac-
cessories of a hospitable cup of tea,
which they offer to all callers; and
very elaborate lacquer and bronze table
near by holds a decorative iardiniere.
A little sliding door of paper, gayly
painted with Japanese flowers, separates
this room from the inner one. or parlor.
This is the "five-matted room," and has
on the floor a very curiOusly wrought
artistic bronze incense burner, and on one
side of it is the box holding the materi-
ais for burning the incense. A lacquer
reading desk stands near, on which is a
book, scroll and a pair of exquisite
candlesticks. Handsome raw silk rugs,
which serve for chairs, are laid on the
floor.

A WIG-NIAKLRs ROMANCE.

A Washington wig-maker tells the
following story "There was fashion
able wedding in this city not long ago.
where beautiful young girl married an
old man ard did not know it. And what
is more, she lives with him now and has
not found him out The groom was
handsome man, and was looked upon
as young man in society, IN which he
figured quite prominently. He had a
youthful face, was quick and erect, and
by coloring his hair, which was snow
white, he easily passed with the young
est. With his affable manner and gal
lantry he won the heart of the young
girl he married from number of other
suitors, many of them young and hand
some. The girl was very young, and q
belle.
Just before the wedding took place,
the man came here and had his hair cut
off and wig made. Dyeing his hair
had worked very well while counting,
but when it came to getting married he
knew he could not use dye without his
wife finding it out, so he adopted wig
to get out of the difficulty. The idea of
his young wife finding out that he was
an old man nearly set him wild, and
when he had gotten well settled under
his wig he was the happiest man ever
saw. On his wedding day he was as
frisky as boy, and no one suspected
his secret This happened some months
ago, and the bride has not yet found out
that he is an old man and wears a wig,
and she will probably never find out un
til old age asserts itself SO strongly thai
it can no longer bo concealed. They
live here in the city now, and the secre
is known probably to none save the
groom and his hair-dresser."

GOOD RULES FOR WINTER.

The following rules published in
Farm and Fireside, are worth needing
by those who believe that an ounce of
prevention is worth pound of cure:
Never lean with the back upon any
thing that is cold. Never begin u
journey until the breakfast has been
eaten.
Never take warm drinks and then
Immediately go out into the cold.
Keep the back, especially between
the shOulder-blades, well covered; also
the chest well protected. In nsleeping
in a cold room establish the habit of
breathing through the nose, and never
with the mouth open.
Never go to bed with cold or damp
feet.
Never omit regular bathing, for un-
less the skin is in active condition the
cold will close the pores and favor con-
gestiOn or some other diseases.
After exercises of any kind never
ride in an open carriage or near the
window of a car for moment it is
dangerous to health and even to life.
When hOarse, speak as little as pOssi-
BILE until the hOarseness is recovered
from, else the voice may be permanent
ly lost or difficulties of the throat be
produced.
Merely warm the back by fire, and
never continue keeping the back ex-
posed to heat after it has become COM
fortably warm. To do otherwise is de-
biliating.
When going from a warm atmOs-
phere into cooler one keep the mouth
closed, so that the air may be warmed
by its passage through the nose ere it
reaches the lungs.
Never stand still in cold weather, es-
pecially after having taken a slight de-
gree of exercise, and always avoid
standing on ice or snow, or where the
person is exposed to cold wind.

FUN IN THE LEGISLATIVE
HALLS.

Our Legislators have so little to do
in the way of making laws that they
are getting reputation in the way of
Joking as the funny statesmen as
the following from the Morning Ne,CS
among other incidents will show: ''On
Thursday during the session a care
worn individual about forty years of
age, wearing a rum blossom on the
end of his nose and having plentiful
supply of hayseed in his hair, walked
into the lobby and took a seat. He
was evidently full of Dover whiskey
and in few moments he sank down
into his seat and fell fast asleep. As
the scene upon the floor was by no
means an exciting one there was moth
ing to disturb his slumbers and he
slept on until after the adjournment,
when the other occupants of the lobby
retired, leaving the stranger in sole
possession. Several of the members
despatched the messenger boy for a
pack of fire crackers and in II few
moments they were placed under the
peaceful dreamer and match applied
to them. The hundred reports that
followed sounded like a rattle of
musketry. The members of the Senate
and other persons around the building
rushed into the House to inquire the
cause of the disturbance and a roar of
laughter broke forth as the crackers
few in all directions around the unfOr-
tunate man. He opened his eyes and
stared vacantly from one man 10
another but appeared to take no other
notice of the joke. When the sound O
the last cracker had died away he
slowly reached for his hat and without
saving a word walked out of the
| lobby"
