The Uncle Toms Cabin Co., that

ever travelled. They had a large au-
diepce, and all went home thoroughly
disgusted. They were an orderly and
well behaved set, but conldn't play

barrel, or on'a sack, has become n

tents. The proprietor Of the Globe
Mills has sought out the best inven-
tions, avoided cheap processes, stop
ped at no expense to get the best re-
suits. Because they make grade of

consumers to know II good thing, and
to buy it at a fair price, these mills
havo u widely extended patronage
among the farmers for exchange.

Pile of Snyder county to call and price
his stock. He is confident that his
goods not only compares in styles and
quality with other stores, but that he
sells cheaper than any of them. His
goods is all new--no time-faded, shelf

department complete, with only one

claimed that at the time he took the

Grey Hair.

A writer in the st. Louis Globe Demo-
crat thus discourses concerning grey
ness of the hair:
The coloring matter of the hair satur-
ates its entire substance, being present
in the fiber cells and between the differ
ent cells of which each hair is composed.
If this coloring matter is absent the
hair appears white, because of the un-
evenness of the surface which reflects
the light and of the presence of air-bub-
bles, moderate quantity of air being
always present in every hair, partly
within, partly between the cells. Hence
the hair varies in color according to the
presence or absence of cOloring sub
stance and the amount of air contained
and the varying shades from grey to
snow-white are thus produced. Grey
ness usually precedes the badness of
age, and may be considered natural
process.
1t is generally to be first seen over the
temples CrOm tempus, time, name de-
rived from this fact), then in the beard.
Few at first. the grey hairs increase in
number, with advancing years, until all
are changed. The loss of color begins
toward the root, as rule, and only in
exceptional cases at the end. After a
grey hair has thus been produced it falls
out, and the new one that succeeds it is
of changed type of ''sure enough"
grey hair, differing very clearly from
that which it replaces. Like badness,
greyness may appear prematurely in
young persons, and does not indicate
any defect in the constitution or disease
in the hair itself, which often continues
to grow even to the most advanced age.
1t seems to be due to hereditary infu-
ences, for it is often family peculiarity.

The Roar of the Surf"

A good deal has been written about
the '.ceaseless roar of the surf" It's a
big thing for couple of days and
nights, but after that you'll begin to
wonder why people who come here ex-
pressly for that didn't stay home and
hire some one to turn n cotiee-mill. The
old thing keeps hammering away for
seven days and nights of the week, with
no other purpose in view than to make
a noise. and by and by everybody votes
it bore. An ocean with the best in
terests of the public at heart would keep
still at least half the time. The average
person puts in about ten minutes watch
ing the white named waves" roll in.
After that he wants some other perform
ance. One wave is very much like
another. all being cut from the same
piece of cloth. Each one has white
name; each one rolls in Just so far, and
breaks just as the one before it did

New Dances.

The Professors, after having consider
ed n score of round dances that had
been submitted to them, decided upon
adopting only four of them. Two of
the favored ones are round and two
square dances.
The round dances are said to be per-
fectly intoxicating in their loneliness.
and the man who cannot dance them
should make up his mind that he was
intended for hitchmg-post, not a
walter.
The first was evolved from the lively
brain of Prof James Brooks of Pitts
burg, Pa. 1t is called the American
gavot. and is set to polka music 1t
combines the best features of the polka
with those of the polka redowa Its eff
feet is so powerful that the orchestra
musicians sometimes throw down their
tiddles and rush upon the floor 10 join
the maddening whirl.
The other round dance is patriotical-
ly christened the Columbia, and the
girls prefer it to ice-cream with soda
water trimmings 1t was carved out of
the brain of Prof. S ID. Sphinx of Provi-
dence, r. l., and it is expected 10 be-
come the favorite dance this season.
Inc SOltilHDld Is culIiclN He" inu Is Il
combination of trois temps and the
waltz to schottische music. Men with
wooden legs are especially advised not
10 attempt this innovation.
One OF the square dances is called the
Octagon. and it is as complicated as the
account book of young lady who has
been on 4 shopping expedition. 1t is a
double quadrille, with figures and music
entirely new. Prof. Ii. c. Rivers of
Brooklyn was the ingenious architect of
the Octagon, and if he were to run for
Mayor OF Brooklyn the girls would cast
u solid vote for him.
The court quadrille also passed muster
and met the appreciation OF the Profess
sors. Prop. Sphinx of Providence lay
awake nights thinking over it, and its
effect is as enhancing as gallon OF
opium.
1t is danced by eight couples and has
lots of crazy-quilt movements, while the
music is particularly fine. Everything
in it is new and the dancers are expect
ed to wear new swtllow-tail suits and
ballroom dresses. 1t promises to be as
catching us tine cholera. and Il thousand
times more popular.-NcaO York Journal.

Worth More than Gold,

Not dozen people in this city could
guess what was in little cigar box that
William A. Atkins of Provincetown,
Cape Cod, had under his arm when he
was here yesterday. If you saw it on
the sidewalk you would take particular
pains to pass it by, but you would pass
by a small fortune. The yellow, un-
pleasant-looking and unpleasant-smell-
ing stuff is ambergris of the best quality,
and it is worth more per ounce than
gold. 1t is found only in the intestines
of q diseased whale, and is used in the
manufacture of fine colognes. But one
vessel this season has reported find of
this SORT and that is the schooner
Antarctic of Provincetown, commanded
by Capt. George S. johnson. A whale
that she killed in SAM Bay, West In
dies, last April, yielded thirty pounds
of ambergris, and it has just arrived
home. 1t is worth nearly $4,000, and
is of more value than all the oil the YES
sci has on board. Mr.. Atkins, who is
the owner of the Antarctic and is at the
head of the whaling industry of Cape
Cod, had a sample of it in his cigar box.
AS no other ambergris is likely to be
brought home this year he has a corner
on the market. York World.

Speaking of the disappearance

Speaking of the disappearance of
conjurers' confederates Sdturday Re
rietO says: The last instance we heard
of their Use WAS by q wandering magi-
clan who was performing in the smaller
towns of Texas, and who was very prop
erly punished for his lack of art. In the
course of his entertainment he made a
marked dollar disappear from a hand
kerchief held by a lady. Coming down
into the audience he picked out a negro
and said: 1.-The dollar will be found in
the pocket of this colored gentleman"
All eyes were turned towards the color
ed gentleman, who rose and extended
his broad brown hand, on which were
half dozen small coins. When the
magician came close to him the negro
said: ''Boss, heah is your change. l
has had two beers and a cigah outen
dat dollar you tole Inc to keep in my
pocket till you called foah it"
