Dressing the Hair in Japan.

The manner of wearing the hair in
Japan is so elaborate that japanese
woman cannot do up her own hair, but
is obliged to go to one Of these establish
ments. 1t is quite interesting to watch
this operation. The woman seats herself
on the floor before round mirror made
of polished metal, and the hair dresser
sets to work. 1t is really quite a forlnid-
able affair, as the woman is apt to be
very critical and insists on each hair be-
ing arranged Just SO. The whole ar
rangement NAV be described as kind
of large bow knot, and beeswaX enters
largely into the material used for the
dressing. This has the effect of making
the hair very stiff and shiny. The
reason that the peculiar pillow is so much
used is SO that the hair may not be dis
turbed while asleep.
This pillow is block Of wood with :.
notch cut in it for the back of the neck
to rest in. You see that even out here
woman is the same, and just as much a
slave to fashion and vanity as in our own
country. yet one thing must be said in
favor of the japanese women that can
not be said of our countrywomen, and
that is that they do not, like them-poor,
misguided fools that they are-ruin their
health by corsets and tight lacing. Euro
pean influence has had the good effect of
driving out the horrid custom of black
eniEg the teeth and gliding the lips. The
Japanese women are really beautiful
when you once get accustomed to theiI
faces. The most Of them have good
though slight figures, but to me the chief
beauty lay in the expression of the eyes
which are as soft and plaintive as does
The Chinese women, or at least those
that saw, were the homeliest and mOst
disagreeable set that ever saw in my
hfe.-Samuel F. Farrar in Chicago Jour

Waste of the Panama Company.

The immense amount of money spent
and the enormous waste immediately
impress one. Many times I saw pieces
of fine machinery, brought there at great
expense, lying half covered with mud
and rusting without shelter of any kind.
Where we stopped at the villages along
the route everywhere / observed the
same Gstlessness and apathy. Here and
there small gangs of men could be seen
shoveling earth, but SO far as any organ
lied and perfect labor with a purpose in
view is concerned it does not exist along
the canal. Through that portion known
as the Culebra cut evidence of much eX-
ertion is seen. They are trying to cut
away mountain; they have not yet sue
ceeded. Here large squads of men were
working and seemed to be working well,
but one of the superintendent smiled
when asked him if the ''cut'' would be
completed in 1889 as De Lesseps has
promised.
In tide level canal it may be imagined
that excavated earth would have been
dumped into the sea and not placed on
the sides as in railroads, and especially
in this case, where the Chagres river can
rise fifty feet in few hours, and where
it rains every day. The French engineers
did not carry their earth to the sea
heavy rains came and the river returned
all the excavations to their original loca-
ton, only little further down stream.
The expense of excavation must again be
paid. In some places along the line the
debris has been washed back SO quickly
as to partly bury the very machines
which threw it out.-PSnama Cor. New

How Cars Are CuiYIei.

Tins operation must. according to the
regulations of most roads. be performed
BY the aid of a short stick; but disN-
garding the regulation partly to save
tine and partly because of fear of the
ridicule that would be called out by the
exhibition of a lack of dexterity, the
ayeIG2e brakeman uses his fingers. He
must lit the link and hold it horizontal
ly until the end enter, the opening, and
then withdraw his hand before the
heavy drawbars come together. de
lay Of a fraction of IL second would
crush the hand or finger Us under trip
hammer. And in point of fact this
delay does. for various reasons, frequent
" happen, and the number OF traInInen
with wounded hands to be found II
every large freight yard Is sad evidence
of the fact.
But again. assuming that this part OF
the operation is accomplished in safety,
there is another and worse danger in the
possibility of being crushed bodily.
Cars are built with projecting timbers on
their ends at or near the center, for the
purpose of keeping the main body of
each car twelve or fifteen inches from
its neighbor, but cars of dissimilar pat
tern sometimes meet in such way
that the projections on one lap
pass those on the other, and the
space which should afford room:
for the man to stand in safety is not
maintained. If the brakeman, in the
darkness of night or the hurry of his
work, fails to note Tie pecuii2rities of TIE
cars, he is mercilessly crushed, the pom
derous vehicles often banging together
with force OF many tons. \ constant
danger in coupling and uncoupling is the
liability to catch the feet in angles in the
track. Freight conductors are peculiarly
liable to this, as the duty of uncoupling
quilting out the coupling pin) generally
devolves upon them, and must be done
while the train is in motion. Walking
rapidly along, in the dark, with the right
hand holding q lantern and grasping the
car, while the left is Juggling at a
pin which sticks, involves perplexities
wherein q moments hesitation may
prove fatal.-B. B. Adams, Jr., in Serb

ROCK ISLAND AHEAD.
The LATEST ThIng in Tourist sleeping car.

The Rock Island has inaugurated a new
feature which promises to create consid-
cradle interest in railway improvement, it
being a free tourist car service, with nearly
all the conveniences OF the palace ear, in
Guiding colored porters in attendance, fine
hair mattresses, pillows, blankets, soap,
etc. When made up for the night the
fourteen sections are partltioned Oft with
sliding panels and curtained with heavy
damask draperies. Tables. attachable to
the sides OF the interior. are provided for
each section. The cars are heated by
steam, the aisles carpeted. and cuspidores
for the cleanliness of the cars are added.
The duties of the porter accompanying
each car Will be similar to those of the pal
ace car service-to look after the wants of
the passengers and see that the car Is kept
perfectly clean. In one end is the ladies
lavatory, and in the other one for gentle
men, which are as nicely appointed and
furnished rs the most faStidious would
desire. The intention of the Chicago,
Kansas & Nebraska is TO furnish these
cars free of charge to tourists or excursion
parties when the number of persons is SUI
ficientIy large 10 justify the use OF a car or

without charge, there Is no further neces-
