Washington, writes correspondent,
and Pennsylvania Avenue of bright
afternoon is filled with the daug ghlers
of noted men who walk along the
sidewalk dressed IN sealskin cloaks,
fine dresses and nobby hats, under
which the hair, cut like that of boy,
shows forth. Some look better tor the
change; Others are made horrible by it..
A pretty girl looks we'll with short
hair, and her plump, rosy checks,
round, full, soft, white neck and jaun-
tily poised head on a pair Of good
straight shoulders are brought into the
more striking contrast ny the rakish
cut of to-day The tkin, scrawny,
scrAggy -necked girl, however, looks
thinner, scrawnier and scrtggier than
ever. and the ugly daughters of some

better advantage under the old CUT

Ditgicu.ty Of Making II Million.

sented by the $50.000,ooo left by Cor
nelus Vanderbilt, the elder, or the
$2CO,0OO, 600 left by Wll(iaJ II. Van
derbiIt to his sons. A Chicago preach
er helps one to realize the magnitude
Of such fortunes by noting that il Cor
nelus Vanderbilt had been born at
the beginning of the Christian era and
had saved S25, 900 a year ever since, he
would not yet have made up his fer
tune of $50 100000; and that if VIM.
H. Vanderbilt had been contempor-
ary of Adam, and had saved at the
rate of $25, 600 per annun1 he would
still have been far short of his $780,
OOO, 600 at the time of his death, and
would still have had to toll and save
for 2,ll5 years in the future before
amaseing his fortune of 3aoDnWOoo.

The very latest protection Tor the
feet and ankles in wet and snowy
weather is the gossamer legged rubber
boot, which has just been patented and
put into the market. 1t is really a
rubber to which is fastened 4 leg Of the
best gossamer rubber material, long
oush to fasten with rubber strap
and buckle over the knee. he leg is
wlle enough to allow the boot to be
drawn on very easily, and this extra
fa3lness Is held in place by a lacins in
the eyeIets OF two folds, which start
one on each side the ankle, ust under
the rubber proper, and extend nearly
to the knee. This makes the boot ttlm
and graceful IN shape, and rs the boot
is whole and waterproof from the toe
to the knee, one can readily see the adj
vautag. it Possesses, especially 1or Ia
dies, whose skirts are sure to get damp
aud wet thc ankles in snowy or rainy
weather, while for children they are
immensely superior to rubber boots, be
cause Of their lightness and in that they
may be worn over any leather boot

Origin Of the Bang.

"A care1ui nlStOilCdl CHaSe vi lne Da!lS
through many countries finally locates
the frizzly bang as u native Of Africa,
the ladies Of that continent having ad-
vantsges to produce this style of hir-
suite ornament which their sisters fur
ther north never possessed. Establish
ed as q fashion in Africa it lost no
time in passing over to ASIA, the Afri-
can slaves assisting in its transit. But
the capillary attractions Of Asiatlc la
dies were by no means suited to the
African style and all efforts at friz-
zling their hair proving failures, the
curly bang was evolved rs the nearest
approach to the African style. Thus
did the bang traverse thousands Of
miles and SO adapt itself to circumstan-
ces that some ethnologists have studi-
ously maintained its Asiatlc origin,
Exactly when the bang came into
Europe is a matter of doubt, some plac-
ing its advent in the latter days of the
Roman empire, while others insist that
it was brought back from the east by
the crusaders; but whenever it came, it
found that the front hair of Europe
ladies was as intractable as their tenn
per- and so The hairdressers being un =
able either to curl or to frizzle, the
saucer bang, stiff, strai5 5ht, soapea AMI
plastered down, as hileous as night
mare, was finally evoled. THIS being
settled there remains only the conclud-
ing inquiry, whence came the first
bang? The most formidable Of the
animal kingdom is Tie much dreaded
gorilla This beast, among other at
fractions, carries head Of short, brist
" hair, and one Of the aAimai's prapa-
rations for battle is to pass the pa"
rapidly down the crown of tn" head to
the ewes, thus bringing the front hair
straight out, and thus giving al aspect
Of terocity th!5 never i!lls to inspire
the utmost terror s. We'll unI IArstool
is this gesture that ano"g III, goI'illa'a
fellow -countrymen it is sigu,l for an
instantaneous and headlong scamper
from the spot, and as the female y'rll-
la is iu defense OF! her young even
worse than th" male, certain African
dialects have IN expression, "a female
gorilla with her front hair down., to
Indicate the extremity o. lerocious
bearing.
In time it came to plss that when
African ladies' were abused by their
husbands they adopted the game ges-
ture, and, so far as the hair WAS con
cerne,i, with the same result, Then
certain wives, to Indicate their rcldl
ness for battle at all seasons, took to
wearing their hair down over their
forrheads, and the fashion rapidly
'ypr4ng TO young ladies wno H,re their
hair in this style as inSinuating their
resolve not to submit to matrimonial
tyranny. The ilea spread snl tn
bang honrished alike in African da'-
erts, on the banks Of the G,n5as o: he
Thames, aad of the Mississippi Thus
does scion'iti; research shed light on
social topics, and even tAe m'nstrosl-
ties Of female costumes are shown to
have tnvir ori3in in intelligent ec'lon:
for nothing is more reasonable than
that, az one animal Taught man how to
build his house and another how to
catch his dinner, his wife from third
should learn now to dress her hair.

To the street through which she would go,
When an elderly lady who seemed to be late,
For the train wished to find the 'depoe'
Tlen man with his arms full of crockery--
Cups, >auccrs, q pitcher and teapot
Came up inquired with an anxious air
The most direct route to the depot
The officer give the directions to these,
Though he was annoyed, it was clear:
Then rustic approached him and said: "if
Nsu please,
Is it far to TIE "daypo" from here "
A nan in pursuit ofa runaway pair,
Came up with the speed Of "a hippo
Grif wrnsing its nigh, thro' the ambient mir
Inquiring the way to the "9tppo.
The officer silently pointed the way;
His mind was in sad t,ihula,ion,
For then came an Engliahman, asking 4 say,
Can you tcl me the way to the station ?
TIE officers seen at the crossing no more,
For something's gone wrong in his brain,
And his family has placed him, his mind to
restore,
In home for the harmless insane
TO visit him often his Old comrades go.
And he seems to find some consoa'lon.
