The fashion of braiding the hair is not
very beneficial for the hair nor the health
Of the child. Many little girls have had
chronic headaches which were relieved as
soon as the hair was left to flow loose,
which is the natural manner.
These mothers who wish their little
girls to have a thick, healthy growth of
hair, which will not fall when they be-
come women, should follow these few
hints, and they will find their fondest
wishes gratifed. First, each child should
wet its hair thoroughly with cold water at
the roots every morning, and then comb
it out smoothly, after which it should be
brushed until dry or until the scalp is
warm.
Every child should have its own brush
and comb, and never unde any circum-
stances use those of another. More cases
of scalp disease and dandruff have been
developed by the habit of all using the
same comb and brush than can be count
ed. II the hair is wet, combed and
brushed regularly, it will remain soft and
glossy. 1t needs no washing all over, ex-
cept perhaps once a month in summer.
No soap or alcohol or alkali of any Kind
should ever be used, as they all destroy the
oily secretions which nouri1h the hair.
Brushing and the use of a good fine comb
will keep the scalp clean and free from
dnndruff.
Some authorities claim that q little
girls hair should be kept short until the
age Of 10, but | have seen more girls with
fine heads of hair who have never had it
cut, than girls who have worn theirs shin
gled all their lives, with thick, handsome
hair.
In many countries the ends of the hair
are singed with a candle, and there it is
claimed that cutting the hair allows the
pigment and other moisture to escape
through the hollow hairs, and that SINCE
ing only .shrivels the hair and keeps the
pigment in. l can only say that those
people who use that plan are not so bald
as nations as we are. l think cleanliness,
COOL brushing and no alkalis are the best
means of keeping the hair perfect, and, If
it is desirable, the ends could be kept ven
by scorching, and the hair should not be
tightly braided at any time.
Children's eyebrows should always be
brushed backward and their eyelashes let
strictly alone, only keeping the eyes free
from impurities and Inflammation. They
will develop better SO, and there is no
danger of putting out their eyes with
sharp scissors, rs 1 have seen done.-Olive
Harper.

Proprietary medicines spring up by the
dozen every day, but you seldom hear of
any outside those manufactured in your
W section of the country. Every prepar-
alton is born under a lucky or unlucky
star, as they seem to succeed or perish
regardless of the energy or money pos
sessed by the men who are interested in
pushing their sale. None succeed without
advertising, although millions have been
spent in putting medicines that never sold
the original stock shipped to wholesale
druggists. 1t is a game of chance where
you cannot stimate the risk. Results
cut very little figure with the statesmen,
for II the stuff will sell it will go off their
hands with scarcely an effort, because
their best customers are the chronic in
valids, who are thicker han flies around
a molasses cake.
Nevertheless, 1 would prefer to take a
new medicine out on the road than handle
any of the Ole ones which have been ad-
vertised from the cliffs of the Pacific coast
to the rocky banks of Labrador. Ameri-
cans are ex~perimentative, and will buy a
new nostrum without any recommended
ton, for the simple reason that they have
heard nothing against it. st. Louis leads
the country in sales of quinine, malarial
specific and bilious antidotes, and some of
the local manufacturers will clear millions
from two articles that originated here
within the last two years, but which are
already beginning to elicit notice.-George

Advice From a Kindly Expert.

When u young lady asked Miss Louisa
Alcott for advice as to earning a living by
literary work, she replied: 81 can only
reply to yours as to the other innumerable
letters of the same sort which l receive.
One must wait and work long and
patiently before success of any sort comes,
and talent must be in the tales or they
won't sell. If people won't take the
stories try something else. For a young
woman with good health and n brave
heart many ways of earning a living are
open if she can put her pride in her pocket
and take whatever comes, no matter how
humble the task may be. Nurse, teacher,
companion, housekeeper, seamstress or
servant are all honest trades and worth
trying while waiting for the more agree
able work.
81 tried them, and after g%rubbing for
twenty years made n hit, seemingly by
accident, but 1 could see how every hard
experience had helped, every sacrifice en-
riched, and so believe heartily in that sort
of training for us all. l do not know any
one in Washington, and l think anything
better than the places women hold in
public offices there. If your stories are
good they will find a market; if they are
not, stop writing and try something else.
The gift is born with us and cannot be
learned, as some think. New York Com
mercial Advertiser.

l happened to be in one of the railroad
depots the other day just as n big car load
of emigrants arrived. What an mex
haustible field for study lay there, and
how many life stories that n novelist
would weave into a thrilling story lay in
the congregation. Every age was repre-
scented. There were grizzled old stagers
whom the ome were using for pack
mules, and infants too young to do any
thing but lie in their mothers shawls and
sleep. There were stalwart Young fell
lows in knee breeches and military look
ing caps, and sturdy maidens, who looked
capable of building a picket fence or floor
ing an Apache a la Sullivan. There were
cute little boys and girls just old enough
to toddle by their parents sides
and stare, stare, stare at everything they
saw. This same staring seemed to be
pretty general with the entire party
They were all too much occupied with
staring to talk. 1 never saw such n large
gathering so silent. Scarcely one of them
spoke as they trudged away to the wait
ing room, and when they reached it they
still said nothing, but found seats on
benches, on packs and on the floor and
gazed about them, literally stricken dumb
by fatigue or establishment o long
can we go on caring for them, l wonderi

1t is not an unusual sight to the inhab-
liant of the Attakapas prairie to see a
house moving along upon wheels. He
may look out from his doorway in the
evening before retiring and have an unob-
structed view before him, but On arising
next morning find a house only a few
yards distant. One unaccustomed to the
sight would probably think that the
nights of the Arabians had returned, and
Aladdin, by rubbing his wonderful lamp,
had conveyed the building there? Others
would know hat some Acadian, tired of
his homestead, perhaps, because the neigh
borhood had become too populous, or one
who had squatted upon land that had sud
denly found an owner, was seeking new
quarters.
When the Acadian wishes to move his
dwelling he goes to his kindred and
friends, and gets each to bring over his
''work beeves" and u pair of wheels. Two
long stills are then placed under the house.
The ends of each sill are chained to a pair
of wheels. The beeves are hitched In
front, and amid great gesticulations, chat
tering and popping of whips the house
moves along to its destination. While
the men are driving the teams along, the
good women folk inside are preparing the
fatted hog and AttakapGs corn bread; for
it will be a merry time when the house
reaches its stopping place and is placed
Upon its resting blocks, where it is to re-
main until next moving time.-Beverly Ii.
Garrison in New Orleans Times-Democrat.

Chndren,s underrarments.

For undergarments, the best houses
show a little wooden knitted petit
coat, which has a waist like a corset
cover, and this buttons closely around the
body, and is being knitted very elastic
and warm. Those who do not care for
the petticoat can find little knitted
chemises, which are long and double
thickness over the stomach and abdomen,
and every child should wear these at all
seasons of the year. Elastic suspenders
for the stockings should also be worn in
stead of fastening them by any other
means. Shoes for small children nave no
heels, though they have what they call
spring heels, which do no injury to the
tender bones and muscles.-Olive Harper.

But when ladies are past the age when
the wrinkles are only suspected the fol-
lowing is good to use:
T%urpentine, 30 drops; rain water, 8
drachms.
Mix and apply at night, letting it dry
upon the surface.
But when the wrinkle is an obstinate
fact, deep and determined, the-only thing
to be lone is to fill them up with some
thing, and for hat purpose the best thing
known is n paste, composed thus:
Essence of turpentine, 2 1-2 drachms;
gum mastic, 2 ounces; fresh butter, 2
ounces.
Mix and apply at night regularly for a
month, bathing the face in tepid water
only, in the mornings, which will aid the
case. In another month repeat the same
treatment. There is nothing better, no
matter what those who sell cosmetics may
say. II ! were to give the names of these
four articles under which they ale sold in
dainty little pots at from $1-to SO each,

no better than each can make herself al

They make no umbrellas in Italy ac-
cording to the English idea. The trim,
tightly rolled umbrella of England and
the United States is unknown, except in
the hands of a tourist. Even the most ac-
complished Italian gentleman thinks
nothing of carrying 6 coarse, clumsy UNI
brella, which, when furled and tied up, is
nearly a foot in diameter and has a handle
nearly equal in size to the center pole of n
Sibley tent. The Italians have a huge
umbrella which is always carried by the
common people and sometimes by the
higher classes. This umbrella, when UNI
furled, is full five feet across. 1t is made
of some strong, coarse material, and is al
ways in some flaming color. You will see
these umbrellas in pea green, a bright,
cold blue, purple and flame red. They
are also carried by the black frocked
priests. They resemble very much in shape
and size an artists sketch umbrella.
They are a protection against the cold
rains of the winter and the blazing suns
of the ummer. Every Italian farmer and
laborer carries one. o will see a farmer
and his laborer going out Under these
umbrellas to their daily work, and in
nearly every hedgerow you will see, in
passing through the country, these UNI
brellas furled and thrown down tenn
p~orarily by the laborers while they are at
work.-T. c. Crawford in New York

BY means of recent improvements made
in the manufacture of rifles, as many as
100 barrels can now be rolled in an hour
by one machine. They are Strengthened
cold and bored with corresponding speed,
and even the riding is one automatically,
SO that one man tending six machines can
turn out sixty or seventy barrels a day.
With the old rifling machine twenty bar
rels was about the limit of a days work;
but the improved machines attend to ev-
erything after being once started, and,
when the rihing is completed, ringa bell
to call the attention of the workman.T

There is one aspect Of the Sullivan
Mitchell light which is so far devoid of
brutality as to be of public interest; this
is, that a man seemingly in superb physi-
cal condition may, in reality, be SO far
overturned, rs it is termed, as to have
been deprived of his staying powers.
Nature supplies to us certain quantities
of adipose tissue, which may seem to the
critical eye of one who looks only at the
outside to be an incumbrance, which
should be reduced by careful training;
but it may turn out that in thus bringing
the human organism down to a mass of
bone and muscle the raine will deprive
the body of the food that it needs to make
good the waste Of physical energy. A
man thus prepared may be well fitted for
a squirt, but entirely unable to keep up
under long continued physical exertion.-

Italians as counterfeIters.

s'Why do Italians almost hold a monop-
oily in counterfeit coinsf" was asked of a
treasury detective.
''There is not money enough in it for
natives. These latter want big money
Besides, many Italians are expert at max
ing plaster of paris models, and they came
over to avoid detection in their own coun-
try, where, 1 believe, counterfeiting is
punished with death. Over hereit is just
a matter of n year or two, and then when
they are in prison they are better fed than
when they are free, SO that detection has
little terror for them. They are satisfied
with light profits, and seldom try to dis.
pose of more than a couple OF dollars,
worth at a time among the small stand
and storekeepers. New York Telegram.
