The idea that badness may be
due to headgear is confirmed by the
experience of a Prussian Physician.
In the vicinity of Cassel he has no.
ticed that the women become bald

cause appearing to be that the
former wear close and friction pro-
ducing helmet while the head-cover-
ing of the men Is loose cap.
The anthropometric work of Mr..
Francis Cations laboratory has
proven of less value than was expec-
ted. A serious difficulty is that
strong persons are fond of testing
their physical excellences, while
feebler ones avoid an exhibition of
their weakness.

Why They Cheer.

It is not so often that the band which
plays at the ocean promenade of Asbury
Park treats the seaside pilgrims to the
Star Spangled Banner" but when it
does the applause is furious. Strangers
are surprised at the outburst until they
learn that it was this band which was
on the United States ship Trenton when
she was driven ashore in the cyclone at
Samoa, and which struck up the ma
tional anthem in the moment of danger,
eliciting cheers from the British frigate
that was drifting by The band is COM

Germany as the ''boar hound,n and

He is utterly fearless, and to see
this intelligent dog running after

their different acts, is delightful.

in the case of girl who sued her ex-lover

of injuring her personal attractiveness to

great men, The death of the poet Lowell,
the perpetual invalidism of Whitman
and the great age of Whittier have led
many papers of late to lament the decay
of American poetry These great mas
( tiers of their art, we are told, will leave
no successors behind them But great
men, from the standpoint of their con-
temporaries, never leave any successors
behind. This is due to the fact that a
great man is not visible until he has re-
coded to great distance. He is usually
measured pretty accurately after he is
dead. After Washington, Hamilton
Jay and jefferson died the lament was
raised that the age of statesmen had
passed. The great heroic figures of our
history had passed off the stage of action
and left no successors. This lament was
raised, too, when Webster, Clay, CAL
hOun and Jackson were in the full flush
of their remarkable powers.
After these great men had left the
stage Of action the lament was again
raised that the age of great men had

RAISE PIGEONS.

A Pigeon Farm in Brennan Would Pay.
Agricultural papers all over the
south are praising the progressive
spirit of the farmers, who are enter
ing the field for poultry farms, but
what would furnish more fruitful
field, in the opinion of the BANNER,
would be a pigeon farm in the vlcin-
ity of Brennan. There are a large
number of sportsmen in this section
who have shooting matches every
year. and much prefer the use of
live pigeons, instead of blue rocks,
but can't buy the birds at Is cents
apiece.
They are easily raised and cost
comparatively nothing, except the
building of the houses for them,
and what you have to pay for the
birds to start from, and evidently if
a frying size chicken can be raised
at a profit when sold at Is cents
there ought to be good money" in
a pigeon at the same price.
If it was known that the birds
could be secured, there would be a
largely increased demand for them
many of the shooting matches leav-
ing off live bird matches from the
program on account of the scarcity
of birds and frequently their inability
to secure them at all, for any price.
A pigeon farm here could find a
market for thousands of the birds at
home, and if the home market was
over supplied at the State ''shooss"
and county fairs there is most al

One ,Ierchant,s Bold stroke.

This story is told of one of the lead
ing dry goods men of New York: He
was carrying heavy stock of fine mil
linery goods when the round topped
derby hat for women became suddenly
fashionable. The market was flooded
with them, and they were regarded as
the only thing to be worn on the head.
This merchant foresaw great loss on
his stock Of millinery, and decided to
prevent it. He first bought up all the
derby hats he could and then adver
tised them extensively, offering them
for sale at ridiculously low prices
The result was that the derby fell
into disfavor among fashionable women
at once, and he saved his market for
his more expensive goods. 1t is by
strokes such as this and the careful
watching of the market and feeling of
the popular pulse that fortunes are
made by the few extremely successful
merchants. Brooklyn Life.
