Poisonous DIVES.

The Berlin Medical society at a recent
meeting discussed at length the effects upon
the skin Of dyes used TO color wearing APP

high repute, told about his examination of a
dress waist which had caused an obstinate
and painful skin disease 70 the woman wear
ing il. He found the red cotton goods with
which the collars and cuffs were lined satu-
rated with a poisonous red dye, which came
off whenever brought in contact with per
spring skin
Another woman of Dr. Weyrs acquaint-
ance poisoned her SKIN by wearing blue stock
ings which she herself knit. The first day
she wore the stockings her feet began TO
swell, the second day the Inflammation ex-
tended 70 the calf, and the third day 70 the
knee. When Dr.. Weyi was called the woman
was IN bed with large swelings aud erup-
lions on both legs She recovered after be-
ing treated for two weeks

How Hair Cloth Is Made.

Many people understand, of course, how
hair cloth is made, but for the edifcation Of
those whc do not we will explain the process.
In the first place horse hair cannot be dyed.
It repels coloring matter, so to make black
cloth it is necessary to secure natural black
hair TIE horses, III many cases absolutely
wild, unrestrained, are regularly corralled
and shorn Of course black hair is prefera
BILE but sometimes gray stock is utilized.
Not only the tails but also the names are cut;
the hair is punched These punches seldom
contain hairs CT less length than two feet;
some are even three and three and one-half
feet, and the thickness of the punches is usu-
ally two or three inches. The hair cloth
looms are provided with what we call nip
per, III place of shuttle, and the nipper is SO
finely actuated that it travels across the warp
and SEXES from the punches one hair only,
the jaws of the nipper being too fine to grasp
more than one, and carries 1t across the wefs
Threads, dropping it into its exact place The
action of the loom mechanically forces the
hair next to its predecessor, the warp crosses
upon it, snugly holds it in its place, the nip
per travels back and seizes another, and so on
aud on The deicacy and almost human &C
curacy with which each separate hair is
placed between the warp threads is really
incredible. -Upholsterer

Mr.. fitzgerald and Mrs: Browning.

It shows some progress in the age when the
editor of Mr. Edward Fitzgerald's memoirs
feels called upon to apologize for the ungra-
cious remark about Mrs. Browning which he
allowed to appear in his volumes. The worst
result of the remark was the spleen that it
called forth in Mr.. Browning, tempting him
in his later years to undigniied and even
coarse utterance This retaliation was due,
it is said, to a somewhat distorted and exag-
gerated report Of the original phraseology,
which, as it stands in the book, would call
rather for silent and contemptuous disre-
gard. The actual statement, made upon an
impulse, no doubt, and in the familiarity OF
private correspondence, was as follows:
mrs. Browning's death is rather relief to
me, | must say. No more Aurora Leighs,
thank God! A woman of real genius. l
know; but what is the upshot of it all? She
and her sex had better mind the kitchen and
their children, and perhaps the poor. Except
in such things as little novels, they only de-
vote themselves to what men do much bet
ter, leaving that which men do worse or not
at ALL
The refreshing thing is to notice that Mr.
William Adds Wright, the editor of Fitz-
gerald's memoirs, now feels bound to apollo
s7lZS lOI Jung u1CU, IL
ed century or so ago, would have been re-
garded as piece Of unquestioned good sense.
The prejudice of sex still survives in all
trades, and nowhere more than in the ele-
waited regions Of intellect; indeed it is per
haps greater there than elsewhere, because OF
the greater extremes of success and failure
| have known several novelists yet unknown
TO fame who still hold TO the conviction that
Mrs. Stowe quite unsexed herself in writing
"Uncle Toms Cabin" and Mrs. jackson in
writing Ramona" and had the circulation
and influence of those books been twice as
great, the improperly would, in the eyes of
these critics, have been doubled Why, they
justly ask, should a womans book be trans
lated into twenty languages, while one
tongue is still enough for the masterpieces of
John Jones? Writing novels is unquestionably,
they maintain, one of the things which "men
do much better" if the age would only get
over this preposterous inclination to read the
little novels" of George Elliott. W. ii. in

THE GIRLS OF SPAIN.

selves Look Fascinating.

How the Dark Eyed Beauties Make Them
selves Look Fascinating.
The traveller through Spain sees the young
girls, anywhere, as beautiful as angels. They
are tail, straight as an arrow, with the most
perfect figures, and with faces which for a
dark, tender, sad beauty are unexampled.
The magnificent hair, always clean, always
cornbed, always marvelously dressed, with
the inevitable flower il it, is alike the dis
tinguishing mark of the poorest as well as
the richest Spanish woman. In this respect
the Spanish woman is unlike any other
Even Italy, the sister peninsula, so closely
connected with Spain in the past-T+aly has
no such distinction. The Italian peasant does
not take such care of her hair, nor does the
Italian lady manifest the pride the neatness,
the coquetry of fresh flowers, as does the
Spaniard That beautiful undulating hair,
so blue black, with rose hidden in its tresses
it is the joy Of Spanish travel to look at
these heads.
In going into small shops and humble quar-
tiers one often sees the business of hair dress
ing in progress. One sister is dressing the
hair of another, or the mother is arranging
the couture, etc They have little heated
irons, with which they frizz the one side, and

ways becoming to the face beneath it, They
wear it much over the face, avoiding the
Chinese style Little curls around the ears
or pushing forward on the temples show that
the Spanish woman values the purpose of
hair, which is to shads es-a eye and contrast
with the complexion.
At the back of the head the nuque is always
carefully brushed up. This nuque gives that
character to the back of the lead which is so
essentially Spanish. 1t is remnant of the
high comb days and the nantilla. The high
comb is now seldom worn, but the hair is
always dressed high on the head-a natural
crown which any queen might envy.
The Spanish eye, large, humid, tender,
grand, languishing, furnished with lashes so
long, 50 curling and SO beautiful that the
pencil of the artist falls to despair; the black
pupil, the white sea, in which the Iustrous
orb sails-ali is indescribable Spanish eyes
are sad. Spanish women, when they are not
coquetting and laughing, have sad express
sion. Is there a little of the Orient left in
their e1pression1 Is it Moorish, and does it
speak of the harem and the inevitable heart
breaka
Next to the beauty of hair and eve comes
the beauty OF the flashing teeth These are so
universally perfect that the student of dent
istry should so TO Spain and find out how they
manage it. There is very little good eating
in Spain. Perhaps these faultless teeth are
not spoiled by cakes and pastry and sweets in
childhood. But the careless Traveller expects
to be rewarded when the Spanish woman
smiles with a row OF pearls, and he is al
most never disappointed.-Cor. Philadelphia
