From the New York Mail and Express.
A barber says that one OF the few kinds OF
womans work which Is not overcrowded, and at
which competent girls can always earn good
wages is that which includes the working cutting
and general management OF the human hair. The
hair trade Is dull now. After the holidays people
will have more time to attend to their hair. The
average pay OF female hairdressers Is IS a week.
Sometimes 1t reaches as high as sIs a week, and
stands the business thoroughly can command SIS
q week anywhere One hairdreSSer in this city
used to employ lao girls, and paid out 500 weekly
in wages.
The profit lies In false hair. Women that have
their hair cut short and tired OF IL buy wigs or
switches" TO wear In the street. Those whose
hair Is poor, or who suffer from badness, wear
false hair at all times Girls who confine their at
tention to hair working alone earn from IS TO $40
q week. II Is an art that needs skill and no small
amount OF patience and perseverance to succeed
with. The hair with which the wigs are made Is
collected BY commercial travellers in Germany
and France. England and Belgium are poor
markets for hair not because of the scarcity, for
both English and Belgian women have flne hair
but beCaSe they win not sell 1t. When collected
1t is put through cleaning process severe enough
then dyed several times over. The best hair
dressers never buy hair from the head or from
private hands.
Perfectly white hair is rare and commands al
cradle value. good wig Of white hair costs $40
The material OF which these wigs made is clip
ped from the goat and seldom from the human
head. pienteously soft silky kind Of snow white
white and abundant wig OF human hair would be
worth at least $1,000 Hair cut from the head
after death Is never used by any good hairdresser
IL cannot be used TO any advantage, as 1T Will

The Perfect Woman.


II any woman wishes to know whether she ia q
perfect specimen OF her sex she has only to apply
the rules laid down for ascertaining the fact and
figure on the results. First, as to height, tastes
differ, but the Medicean Venus is feet inches In
height, and this is held by many sculptors and
artists to be the most admirable stature for wo-
laid down by the Arabs, who say that woman
should have these things: Black-Hair, eyebrows,
lasnes and pupils. White-Skin, teeth and globe
OF the eye; Red-Tongue, lips and cheeks. Round
fingers, arms and limbs. Large-Forehead, eyes
and lips. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS nose and feet.
small-Ears bust and hands
For a woman OF feet 5, 13S pounds is the proper
weight and II she be Wen formed she can stand
another 10 pounds without greatly showing it
When her arms are extended she should measure
from tip OF middle finger to tip OF middle finger Just
feet 5, exactly her own height. The length Of her
hand should be just tenth OF that and her foot
Just seventh, and the diameter OF her chest a
nth. From her thighs to the ground she should
measure just what she measures from the thighs 10
the top OF the head. The knee should come ex-
actly midway between the thigh and heel The
distance from the elbow 10 the middle finger
should be the same as the distance from the elbow
to the middle OF the chest. From the top OF the
head to the chin should be just the length OF the
foot, and there should be the same distance between
the chin and the armptS. A woman OF this height
inches about the bust, II measured from under the
arms, and 43 II over them. The upper arm should
measure ID inches and the wrist 9. The calf OF
the leg should measure 14k inches the thigh %
measurement which says that the distance twice
around the thumb should go once around the
wrist; twice around the wrist once around the
throat; twice around the throat once around waist,

great many interesting variations. Every night
baby studies out something startlingly new and
original 10 insert in the program for papas amuse-
ment. If the baby is well up In its lines the per-
formance can be depended upon for beginning
along about early candle lighting. When papa IS
particularly weary and out OF sorts on general
principles baby strains point or two and begins
earlier, so that the head OF the household knows

After the opening overture. which yanks the
