THE Clinton Democrat takes a
comic view Of the Republican appeal
to President Harrison. From one
point of view the thing was

was pitiful and weak beyond

serious, but positively alarming.

A Device for Preserving the Hair.
From the Chiedao Meaus.

FfOHt tHe CHttuyo Afe0o. M
The august Regent of Spain resorts
to the wigmaker for the preservation
of her locks. She has a head of hair
which is fine and silky, but rather
thin, and, as she feared that hot irons,
would make it prematurely gray, she
inaugurated a practice now very COM
mon among continental women.
When her maid has accumulated a
good supply of her mistress comb
ings she hands them over to a capil-
larry artist, who has them sorted hair
by hair, the roots being always placed
together. A. M. Albert, whilom Golf
feur to la grand duchesse, is famous
for this kind of work. He weaves all
the hairs into a scalp, and to give
a permanent curly and wavy set, has
the hair put in the curling and way
ing irong and placed for a week in a
steam heated oven. The heat of a
fire would not do so we'll and would
darken the hue of the fair or of the
gray or red hair. His object is to
make the hair match exactly with the
live hair in texture and color. Before
the steam oven device was hit upon
most of the hair used for artificial
scalps was taken from the heads
of infants, because that taken from
adults heads would not curl and
wave so well.
