Now and then the explorer among n
primitive people happens upon lind "
which strikingly illustrates that neces-
sity is not only the mother of invention
but that there is strong family likeness
among the inventions. An English nat
uralist while visiting Great Sangir, one of
the islands of the Indian Ocean known
as the Celebes, or Spice Islands, lodged
at the house of rajah.
In front of the house was a verap da, in
q corner of which stood a sentry, whose
business ii was 10 keep the time for the
village, by the aid of primitive sand
glass.
Two beer bottles were firmly dashed to-
gether, mouth to mouth, and fixed in a
wooden frame. made TO stand upright in
reversible positions. A quantity of black
sand ran from one bottle into the other
in just half an hour, and when the upper
bottle was empty the frame was reversed.
Twelve short sticks. marked with
notches from one to twelve, were hung
upon a string. A hook was placed be-
tween the stick bearing the number of
notches corresponding to the hour last
struck and the one to be struck next. The
sentry announced the time by striking I'll o
hours on large gong.

that the ancient Jews. who had the ORR
entail idea of women. forbade them to
appear in public with long tresses hanging
loose down their backs. IL made them
too bewitching altogether TO SUIT the old
lawgivers. No one knows better than the
ladies themselves the charm of fine
growth of hair when artistically arranged,
displayed and ornamented. 1t is the
easiest thing in the world for woman to
wear her hair in poor taste; and on the
other hand. il is the easiest thing in the
worldto tighten mp, improve and beautify
plain fnce by judicious arrangement
OF the hair. More husbands have been
caught by bangs than there are hairs in
one of them. A wit once remarked:
The best way 10 pull the wool over a
mans eyes is TO pullFyours over your
own.
But coming now to the prevailing
modes of dressing the hair, it is not 10
be denied that they are extremely artistic
and very quiet, and yet chic withal. The
Grecian style of dressing the hair is be-
yond all doubt the exact thing just at
present. IT calls for a shHpely Lead, how
ever, and does not suit all faces. In par
ticular is ii admirably adapted to display
the beauty of the nspe of the neck; an
ugly word for that ut times b. autlful por-
ton of a women. But let the enchan'ress
beware. Unless she Is sue or her neck
she had better have recourse 10 style OF
couture that reaches lower down aud
covers up any defect at the nape. The
low and long couture is extremely be-
coming 10 some faces, and 1t is fact
that the prevailing GIecian mole does
not compel a woman to make guy OF
herself. For proof s G the three pretty
heads in the pictured group. Esp cially

An American woman devotes probably
more thought TO the question of hosiery
than do the women of other nations. To
her mind it is quite as essential that
there should be perfect harmony of tint
between costume and the stockings
worn by the same person as between any
other two parts OF the toilet. But in
spite OF seNeral attempts 10 dlsplace the
black silk stocking. it still remains the
favorite foot covering. The one con-
trolling reason. doubtless, is that it re-
duces the apparent size of the foot and
gives the ankle round and tapering
look, and in addition TO this sets off the
snowy Wilderness of the underskirt
Stockings embroidered with flowers in
bright colors are altogether too pro-
