BLONDE AND BRUNETTE.
Two Leading Types of Female Beauty
Various intermediate Compilations

Various intermediate Compilations
A blonde should have a fair skin, blue
eyes and light hair. Her lashes may be
dark, and so, of course, would be her
eyelashes; but this seldom happens when
the eyes are blue. A brunette should
have a clear olive skin, dark eyes, black
hair and brows and lashes. The general
woman is a blonde-brune-that Is, she
has brown hair, which is neither very
dark nor very light; she has blue eyes, a
complexion that is not absolutely clear
pink and white, and lark brows and
lashes, usually not very heavy. The
special woman has the skin Of a blonde,
light hair, verging on the yellow, dark
eyes and brows and lashes. A typical
American woman has q fair skin that
lacks color, dark gray or deep brown
eyes, either looking absolutely black, and
hair that, while it is light, has not the
slightest tint of yellow in it.
The blonde cendree has the same dull
skin, dark eyes and hair that seems close
akin to gray, and yet never becomes 30.
Somebody said that Mrs. Langtry was a
blonde cendree. Now, this Is perfect
nonsense. Her hair is a warm brown,
her eyes a very deep hazel, and her skin
absolutely blonde, the warm blood I'M
derneath showing through the white
skin. She is the opposite-a blonde
bruno. The blonde type predominates,
but there Is sufficient color In her hair
and eyes to suggest the brunette. A per-
feet blonde is seldom a beautiful woman
for many years. The pink and white
skin becomes rather doughty with them;
blue eyes will fade, and gray hairs,
charming as they are among black, mako
yellow look very passee. The blonde has
not always much staying power; she is
apt to grow limp after q very little
worry, and too often becomes fretful.
Mankind ought TO be thankful that there
are 80 many bleached blondes, ms they
do not lose their energy as a natural born
one would.
Some of the prettiest women in the
world are the Irish girls, with their deep
blue eyes, very black hair, and wonder
fully clear skin. French women arc
seldom ~beautiful-they realize they are
going to be old some day and they cult
vate the art of dressing and of being
chic In word and manner. A perfect
brunette is seldom seen in this country;
the average one, as noted In the Russian
baths, loses decidedly by contrast with
the blonde-brune. Her skin looks sal
low and she is much apter to turn to
angles han to curves-a something not
at all In the line of beauty.
Here's a word of advice to the blondes:
II you want to keep your skin looking as
If it were alive, take as much exercise as
you can; drive, ride or walk, and don't
be afraid occasionally to bathe your face
in a strong mixture Of gin and water.
You will feel brighter and fresher, and
really one ia cleaner after its use-

Tho Pope md His Guards.

Leo XIII talks willingly with the gen.
tl"men Of his guard, because they are
Young and living in the world and in
high society they know everything that
is going on. AS the pope never goes
outside the Vatican this furnishes him a
mean of knowing what passes In the
city and what is lone and said. He is
much interested in building and likes to
know how the public works that are now
In course Of erection go on and how the
city OF the popes is being transformed.
Besides, Leo XIII likes the noble guard
to be as active as possible. When the last
batch of gentlemen were admitted to the
guard-there were twelve of them-he
made them a little address, urged them
not only to be true gentlemen, but also
to emulate the example Of Count So
derini, who has gained much honor by
important literary and political works.
All the great questions treated by Leo
XIII, all the difficulties that nave arisen
between the Holy See and Italy or tho
other powers have furnished to Count
Soderini occasion for bringing out
pamphlets or larger works, which have
displayed lively intelligence and solid
learning.-Rome Cor. Chicago Times.

A medical man compares an old man
to an old wagon; with light loading and
careful usage it will last for years, but
one heavy load or sudden strain will
break it or ruin it forever. Many people
reach the age of so, 60 or 10 measurably
free from most of the pains and infirmi-
ties of age, CHEEKY in heart and sound In
health, ripe in wisdom and experience,
with sympathies mellowed by age, and
with reasonable prospects and opportuni-
ties for continued usefulness in the world
for a considerable time.
Let such persons be thankful, but let
them also be careful. An old constitu-
ton is like an old bone, broken with ease,
mended with difficulty. A young tree
bends to the gale, an old n snaps and
falls before the blast. A single hard lift,
an hour of heating work, an evening OF
exposure to rain or damp, q severe chill,
n e1ccss Of food, the unusua indulgence
Of an appetite or passion, a sudden fit OF
anger, an improper doee of medicine, any
of these or similar things may cut off o
valuable life in an hour and leave the fair
hopes of usefulness and enjoyment but q
shapeless wreck.-Scottish American.

super.tl.Ion. Of enc Narnioe..

The Navajoes, now the strongest and
richest tribe of Indians Ia the country,
are all enormously superstitious. Their
oldest terror, perhaps, is that which they
cherish for the Photographic camera
Plant a tripod within a quarter of a mile
Of a Navajo hogan and the dusky inhab-
itants will flee as from the plague. 1t is
their solemn belief that a picture Is actu-
ally subtracted from the entity of the sit
ter-that he is so much the less by the
operation. How many pictures they
think it would be necessary to take be-
fore the person would be all gone, and
his whole being diverted into the coun-
terfeit presentments, l have never been
able to learn, but apparently they deem
the fatality as rapid as it is certain.

Triumph. OF Modern oh.m,.tr,.

English swindlers are treating yellow
diamonds by some process by means of
which they palm them off as pure white
gems. This fraud may be ingenious, but
the process by which artificial rubies were
evolved two years ago by fusing alumni
nate of lead with silica and n little
chromium added for coloring matter was
something more; 1t was a triumph of
modern chemistry. The Paris syndicate
Of diamonds and precious stones sat in
solemn judgment upon the new product,
decided that the stones must be sold as
artificial and not as precious gems, and
required Paris dealers to cancel the sales
and return nearly $500, 900 received for
artificial stones that had beer sold as
natural rubies.
MI. Kunz says the color of these stones
is good, though not so brilliant as that of
very fine rubies. Since he read his paper
on these manufactured gems before our
Academy OF Science, it Is reported from
Europe that by another chemical combi-
nation still, apparently perfect specimens
of rubies have been a~rtlficially produced.
Modern chemistry is working out the
wonders the alchemists of old dreamed Of
achieving.-New York Sun.

The recent introduction in some of the
hospitals of a simple continuance for the
comfort and convenience Of patients is
noted. Two iron sockets are firmly at
tached to the sides Of a bedstead by
screws, and into these are fitted short
poles, between the latter being suspended
a horizontal bar, also fitted into clamps
and adjustable to any height above the
patient lying on the bed. From this bar
hangs a pair of strong straps with grips,
add these may be moved from right to
left at will. By grasping these straps the
sick man Is enabled TO utilize the strength
Of his arms to lift himself up, to change
his position, to turn over and to allow
the bedding to be changed.
There are likewise a variety of attach
ments to the mechanism which extend
its usefulness in a number of ways, one
of these being a rest for the leg, in which
a broken limb a be placed while 1t Is
being dressed, 1t being only necessary to
unscrew the sockets attached to the bed
stead and change their location to utilize
this; another is n curtain rod, likely to be
especially serviceable In hospital wards
TO avoid a draft TO shut out the light or
to attain a degree Of privacy; another is
q small table for medicines, etc.-New

In the Ashnntee war of 1878, Mr..
Prior's first field work, occurred one of
those fortunate events which brave men
ascribe to luck and fair men to pluck.
The Fo~rty-second regulars were attack
ing the Ashantees in the bush. Prior,
right in the thick of 1t, made a hasty
sketch, showing the CLEAN Of bayonets
through the rifle smoke, the lash Of the
blacks guns from the underground, the
tips of British muskets emerging here
and there from the fiery vapor of battle,
the assailants firing in all sorts of atti-
tudes, some running to the front, others
lying under n protecting tree, others still
kneeling by the horses from which they
had just dismounted. These were the
hazy outlines or bold dashes of an artist
soldier under fire. There was no time to
make a picture before the mail left for
the coast. So he forwarded the sketch,
still reeking with rifle smoke, to the
home office. with a hasty note asking
The Illustrated News to work it up into
a finished cartoon. But the home office
did nothing of the sort. Instead, they
published the sketch just as it left his
pencil. And 1t is conceded to this day
to be one of the greatest triumphs of a
specials work under difficulties, and one
of the most thrilling battle pictures ever
seen.-John Paul Bocock in New York

In the human subject the average ra-
pidity Of the cardiac ~pulsation Of an adult
male is about seventy beats per minute.
These beats are more frequent as a rule
In young children and in women, and
there are variations within certain limits
In particular persons owing TO peculiari-
ties of organization. 1t would not neces-
sarily be an abnormal sign to find in some
particular individuals the habitual fire.
quency Of the hearts action from sixty
to sixty-five or from seventy-five to eighty
per minute. As a rule, the hearts action
is slower and more powerful in fully de-
veloped and muscular organizations, and
NOR rapid and feebler in those of slighter
form.
In animals the range Is from twenty
five to ~forty-five in the cold blooded, and
fifty upward in the warm bldeded, except
in the case of a horse, which has a very
slow heart beat, only forty strokes q
minute. The pulsations of men and all
animals differ with the sea level also.
The work Of a healthy human heart has
been shown to be equal to the feat of
raising five tons four hundredweight one
foot per hour, or 1875 tons in t~wenty-four
hours.
A curious calculation has been made
by DR.. Richardson, giving the work of
the heart in mileage. Presuming that
the blood was thrown out of the heart at
each pulsation in the proportion of sixty
nine strokes per minute, and at the as
sumed force of nine feet, the mileage of
the blood through the body might be
taken as 207 yards per minute, seven
miles per hour, 1913 miles per day, 81, 800
miles per year, or o, 150, $50 miles in a
lifetime, 81 years. The number OF beats
OF the heart in the same long life would
reach the grand total Of Q, 800, 776, 000.-
