THE CAPOTE.

THE CAPOTE. THE CONCOHD.
On the left of the picture is seen one of the
two most popular shapes Of bonnet, the
Capote. The front is filed in full with lace
having tiny bow Of ribbon in front, On
the left, near the top, is a small spray Of
flowers, on the right a bow of ribbon. The
strings pass around the back and are tied
under the chin. They are yard long.
With both the hats and bonnets the hair is
to be worn very high upon the head. 1t has
gone up so high as to be quite out of sight, in
fact. In regard to trimming this is to be no
tieed: Feathers are not used much upon
bonnets. Upon these flowers and lace appear
in profusion. Feathers, and especially whole
birds, on the other hand, viii be used for hats.
Etamine scarfs are draped around the hats.
They will be very fashionable. They come
stamped in Chinese colors and patterns.
Etamine is a thin, canvas-like or grenadine
fabric, 1t is popular in ribbons also.
The other most fashionable shape in bon
nets is the poke, or pointed one. Sometimes
it is a split poke, like that seen below.

Expositor: We hear it said that the
Legislature will be asked to give or
loan White county the amount of her
State tax for two years with which to
build court house. The tax belong
ing to the State amounts to about ST.
900, per annum. AS the State has
more money than it has any use for,
which is deposited about in the various
banks and loaned to the people at a
high interest rate, we think the Leg
islature would be doing the proper
and graceful thing to say to White
county, "build you new court house
with your State tax for two years.
Other counties have been favored in
this way by the Legislature.

Dandruff is dirty and disagreeable

continually, and is accompanied by a
hardly less annoying sensation of itch>

nothing in the world so thoroughly
adapted to this trouble as ParkeTs
Hair Balsam. 1t cleanses and heals
the scalp, stops the falling hair and

st. Nicholas.
Captain Basett, the venerable Ser
geant>at-Arms of the Senate, has been
in continuous service for more than
fifty years. The CAPITAL n started in as
a page. At that time there was but
one in the Senate, and Daniel Webster
wanted young Isaac Ba8sett appointed
as an additional page. The other
senators thought it great extrava-
gance-two pages for forth-eight sena>
tors! 1t was enough to bankrupt the
Republic! Captain Bassett declares
that there was hot debate over the
suggestion of Webster. However,
Webster fought hard and, with his
great eloquence, succeeded. So young
Bassett was appointed. Although his
hair is now as white as snow, he loves
fun and is still as merry as boy. Just
think of it! He was Senate officer
when the Senate met in the old Cham
Der, now occupied by the Supreme
Court; when the House met in their

mated by the States; when the evening
sessions of both Houses had to be

We had the privilege, on Tuesday,
of beholding the longest beard we
ever saw. The possessor of it is Mr..
E. B. Fariss, who lives near Hurricane
Springs in this county. Mr.. Fariss,
in company with Capt. Taylor and
Drs. Grizzard and Gattis, visited our
Office and exhibited his beard. 1t
measures six feet and six inches when
combed out straight. He keeps it
yIatted and folded up under his chin,
and when the plat is let down it lies
several inches on the floor as he stands
straight. He is about FIVE feet ten
inches high, and looks to be about
forty>fve years of age, This beard is
the growth of twelve years. We chal-
lenge any county in the state to pro-
duce one that will beat it.

4 Baking Powder Trick.

| All KINGS of schemes aud tricks are
resorted 10 by unprinclpled persons to
Obtain unfair advantages over their
neighbors. TIE latest aud most dis
honest ur these that has come to our
notice Is one by which certain manu-
'soturers OF baking powder have sought
to prejudice consumers against the use
Of other BRANDS that have un established
| reputation ne the best ana purest IN the
/ market, for the purpose OF Introducing
their own, Their method, we are IN.
| formed, Is 10 heat a can of baking pow
! der Of wtli-kuowu brand oyer q lamp
/ or stove, whom, II lhOre Is q gas given
| of having the odor Of ammonia, the
| powder Is condemned AS being maze ri
ammonia and mint for usN. The preju-
uite5 Of the uususpeCJiug are thus eN-
, cited against tho baking powder sub
mitted 10 the so-called tost, aud the
/ grocer who has quantity Of it on hand
suffers serious loss in consequence.
| tho Intelligent consumer will stop n
moment 10 think, she viii readily per-
ceive that this test" il successful,
proves nothing but the superiority Of
! the baking powder tested. The aim OF
all baking powder makers is TO pro-
Juco an article that shall mont readily,
under use, give off its leavening gas.
! The powder that does this with mod
crate heat, Ht tho same time evolving
! the largest quantity, is scientifically the
best.
There is probably not an article pre-
pared for food that cannot be manipu-
/ lated to prove that something Is wrong
about it; and when person goes into a
Kitchen or before a housekeeper who is
not to be presumed TO understand chem
zeal relations, and performs an expert
ment of even the simplest character, it
is not difficult to impress ono that some
thing awful is the matter. AS to baking
| powders, we could suggest II dozen Tesla
that would be as ridiculous in giving a
fair idea of tho relative merits to an I'M
instructed mind as the one here men,
| toned.
The true domestic value of baking
| powder consists in its purity, whole
someness and leavening power. IL is
only the chemist, with his chemical APP
planes, who can determine these quail
tiles, scientifically and exactly. Aside
| from this, the best test for a baking
powder Is to try it in making bread, and
see which makes the most and the best.
To this practical test all the established
brands have been put, and housekeepers
have very generally made up their minds
which they prefer, and the tricksters
will find ultimately that Il brand that
has been q household favorite for years
will not DO displaced by reason of any
| tricks which they NAV show.
