STYLES in Parting the Hair.

New York Correspondence Hartford Courant.
Some of the greatest men among US part their
hair in the center. Among them may be mon
toned Ingersoll, Roscoe Conklng his brother,
Col. Frederick Conkling, Bishop Potter, and
hundreds of others among army officers the
clergy and statesmen. 1t is no more efeminate
than it is masculine for young lady to part her
hair on the side it is simply question of what
is becoming. / know of a clergyman who looks
manly and grand with his hair parted in the cen
ter who looks actually foolish when his brow is
more covered by the hair parted on the side. as
he wore il one day at the request of his wife,
who laughingly declared she never wished to see
his hair parted on the side again. He says he
has good example in wearing his hair as he
does-the pictures Of the Saviour have the hair
worn in a like manner. I know several pretty
young ladies who are made prettler by the hair
being parted little at one side. 1t shortens the
face. and really looks moro feminine. as does
everything which covers the brow. 1t is only
custom which makes US think otherwise.
