Hnir Dycing n Dcnd Art.

The Philadelphia Times reports an
interview with barber, who said:
None OF the barbors in the heart of
the city keep hair dye nowadays. 1t
used to pay immensely, and BARRIERS
made lots of money. Dyeing hair or
whiskers was q three or four dollar

name number of dead men who were
prominent in this CITY dozen or fifteen
years ago who died from the effects of
hair dyes, and I know of others who
became insane. All hair dye is poison,
and will eventually poison n mans
whole system. If n man who dyes his
hair will put bright half-dollar in his
trousers pocket and carry it month or
two, the half-dollar will turn ms black

affect the whole system. It takes n
man of great mental and physical
strength to stand fine effects of hair dye.

man to his grave when Twas dyeing

fathers built, and race of fine old time
country gentlemen they were, whose
abundant life and generous hospitality
made the bayside of their day famous.
AS yet there has been but little immigra-

sccnded from ancestors who established
themselves there when they came from
England in the early days of the colony /;
the Loves and the Lambdens, the Kemps

CAN BE DONE THIS YEAR.

All the real estate agents are of one mind
in wishing change of moving day" from
April to May l. Everyone who has had
experience of fitting amid April showers,
of going into cold quarters, of superintend-
ing the transportation of families and furni-
ture with the chances of sluSh and mud un-
der foot or snow or rain in steady down
pour, will agree that it is a dangerous and
foolish waste of exertion and risk of health
to keep up the present unreasonable and un-
seasonable arrangement.
But some people say the change cannot be
made. Why not? Let tenants this year
see that their leases are made out for thir-
teen months in place of twelve. Landlords
will be glad enough to agree. Not only
can their property be seen to better advant-
age by adopting the 1st of May for renting
time, but it will be less damaged when the
moving takes place, in longer hours, more
leisurely and in a cheerful spirit.
Those who want to set useful fashion
can begin this year by renting for thirteen
months 1t will become Immediately popu-
lar. The customers of any one of the lead
ing agencies would of themselves be able to
start the programme successfully.

Harris

Lovers of a first-class vaudeville performance
ought to be in clover this week. The bill of
fare presented at Harris Theater by the Mel
sons affords not only quantity, but quality.
There's not dull spot in the programme, and
several of the numbers are particularly bright.
The Twin Brothers Wems are "as like as two
peas" and the more one compares them the
harder he finds it to distinguish t'other from
which. This remarkable resemblance adds
great amusement to their otherwise enjoyable
acts John A. Coleman is a favorite in Pitts
burg, his dancing being inimitable. Neiman,
the ventriloquist, is above the average. Clark
and Williams do a very clever black-face act,
their greatest fault being tendency to care
lessness of language in their badinage, which
they should avoid before such large audience
of ladies and children as are always
attracted to this very popular theater.
Mile Fogardus and her pretty pigeons and in
telligent dogs are a well-known feature of this
company. Richard Pitrot is the best travelling
imitator of well-known people, and Mile. Adri-
enne Ancion is very clever on the trapeze. But
the feature that rises above all others in the
entire bill is the wonderful acrobatic act of the
and ages, whose feats of agility and strength
and peculiar failing pyramid are the most
striking novelties of the Nelson's present con-
tribution to the entertainment given by the
company that bears their name. The usual
