People sometimes expect medical men
to do strange things. \ professional cor
respondent has q lady patient who has
consulted him about her hair, which we
are told is turning gray slowly, but
surely" Probably it viii be assumed
that Il good hair dye would serve her
turn, but it is just the other way. The
lady admircs gray hair, and what she
wants is to know how she can hasten the
change. AS the correspondent signs him
self "Senex' he is presumably person
Of some professional experience; but the
request seems to have staggered him a
little, for he is fain to ask whether his
professional brethren can help him out of
the difficulty.
Peoples hair, if we may trust the
Prisoner Of ChillOn, has been known to
grow white i'll "a single night, but that
has been through sudden fears" and
probably the lady would not care to be
terrified into white locks. Marie Antoi-
nette's hair became white, it is recorded,
during her stay in the state prison in
Paris, and she, we suspect, is in some
degree responsible for the romantic as
sociations Of gray hair, but that again is
hardly practical remedy. Some milder
form of worry ana vexatiOn might be
tried. What if the lady wrote blank
verse tragedy and tried to get it accepted
by a London manaSer?-LOndon News.

two good hotels ; boarding houses; two
newspapers; one job printing Office,
&c. There are fine business blocks,
many large and handsome stores and
private residences that would he an
ornament to any town, besides one OF
the largest and finest theatrical halls
in the State. There are five churches,
all Protestant, viz: Methodist Episco-
pal, Methodist Protestant, Baptist,
Presbyterian and Episcopal; all nice
houses of worship, four of them being
constructed of brick, with large mem
berships. Good schools for both sexes,
private and public, afford ample facil-
tiles for the proper and careful train
ing of the minds of the youth.
The business of the town is great,
Henderson being the chief market and

the fleecy staple, all grow and flourish

Why France Is Wealthy,

The aggregated wealth of 10000, 900
poor, degraded, barefooted peasants
makes France rich. The ignorance of the
French farmer is appalling. never saw
newspaper III 4 French farm village.
Their wants are no more than the wants
of horse. The Frenchman eats the
coarse5t food; about the same as he feeds
his horse. He will eat coarse bread and
wine for breakfast; soup, bread and wine
for dinner, aud perhaps bread and milk
for supper; lie does not know what coffee
or tea is. The negroes of the south live
like kings compared to French farmer.
Still the Frenchman is satisfied. because
he knows no better.
The government takes the money of
the poor up TO 1000 francs and gives
them 81 per cent. for its use The peasant
farmers of France have nearly $500, OOO,-
600 on deposit in these savings banks.
These poor, degraded, half fed farmers
keep the French treasury full of money.

Chauncey II. DeDcw's Left Foot.

A New Yorker who has had the good
fortune to hear many of the public ad-
dresses of Chauncey N. Depew, and who
has closely observed his ways, thinks the
great orators left leg is responsible for
much of his success. Eve reached the
conclusion" the New Yorker says, that
he grinds his speeches out of Ills left leg.
just as soon as Mr.. Depew sits down he
will cross the left foot over the right
knee and begin to wiggle it. He puts it
through all the gestures of an orator,
bows to the audience, moves it to the
right and left and then swings it vigor-
ously. He watches it all the time in
tently, and seems to be conversing with
1t. fyou ask him a question then he
won't answer you, for ten chances to
one he doesn't hear you He is getting
his inspiration, and he's drawing it from
his left foot. l tell you. if it was cut off
l don't believe he could say word.

PrOfeSSOr HuNlcx,S Aim

Replying to the president of the Lin
mean society in acknowledgment of the
Linnean medal, Professor Huxley gives
an interesting bit of autobiography.

the words of the society's motto, .'naturae
dscere mores." Il have endeavored TO
show the fundamental unity of plant
life and animal life, to make use of hy-
potheses as ladders and scatfoldings to be
discarded, perhaps somewhat migrate
fully, when no longer of use, and to pur-
sue the truth, regardless of incidental
consequences" From all which it is evil

Something NcCraney pIox,ad ~,

Mr.. John McCraney. living near Kings
ton, Ga. has found a most wonderful
stone. While blowing on sandbar in
the Etowah river he saw something shin
ing with the most brilliant of lights Just
to one side of him. He stopped his pillow
and went to pick it mp. 1t was a clear,
white stone the size of an egg, rejecting
In one way all the colors of the rainbow.
Turning it over the colors took on the
character of a spirit level, following
each other up through the center of the
rock till all were gathered in one end.
Mr.. McCraney has been offered 81 900
for it, but refused it. 1t emits a perfect
ly white light in the dark.-Atlanta
