CHARACTER IN HAIR.
Woman May Dissemble with Eyes, Nose
and Lips, but with Hair, Never.

and Lips, but with Hair, Never.
Said hotel man: II start out in my
reading of woman by her hair with the
quite generally known and accepted prin-
ciple that the finer the hair the gentler the
birth, or the better, higher grade the fam
lily stock from which she came, and hav-
ing thus determined whether she is of
gentle or rude birth, l rely upon the
amount of care which her hair shows to
have had in order to obtain the key to
her mode of life A brilliant, glossy eff
feet, even in connection with the finest
feminine hair, is the result only of long
and most careful attention, while in the
case of coarse hair, indicating, to less or
greater extent, rude birth, a high degree
of glOssiness is utterly impossible.
And now will give you principle or
rule that you will prcb badly laugh at, but
stands for a fact nevertheless; it is that
the closer the ends of the hair cling to-
gether when unaffected by an artificial
force, the more intellectually does the
owner possess. When the ends, and parti-
cularly the body, of the hair show ten
dency to curl, it is an infallible sign that
the owner has inherent grace and poetic
ease of body. The straighter and less
yielding-though not necessarily harsh
the hair, the frmer and more positive is
the woman's nature.
''Trcachery and jealousy hide beneath
lusterless or dead black hair nine cases
out of ten. Feminine hair that NAV an
pear of the finest texture and be glossy
almost to brilliancy when viewed at 4
little distance, but that on close examina-
ton is found to have a broken or split APP
pearance-something quite common in
ladies' hair-may be depended on to a GER
tainty as indicating badly unbalanced
character, a woman with an excess of esDe-
cially queer notions, and one who, while
she may be nice enough to bow to on
the street, should be avoided as an intimate
friend The lighter colorcd the hair the
more sensitive and 'tOuchy' the owner, en-
cept in rare cases, where her ladyship en-
joys perfect health.
Brown hair, whatever the shade, is al
ways, | have found in my business as a
hotel man, the most pleasant and satisfac-
tory shade of hair to have to do with across
the hotel counter, and that's the place to
find out a woman's nature. Whatever the
shade of brown it may be, you will find the
fact almost infallible that such hair covers
perfect hOtbed of common sense, good
judgment and reason.
And as for auburn hair, would trust
an auburn or redhaired woman for more
days board without her having any bag
gage than l would a woman with hair of
any other color, brown locks not excepted
and I've probably had as many redhaired
ladies tor my guests as any other hotel
man in the country. Some redhaired wom-
en- are mighty impulsive and quick spoken
occasionally but | have always found them
the possesSors of two most appreciable
traits. They are strictly honest and have
common sense, while as a general rule
they are among the brightest, the gentlest
of gentlewCmen." -Chicago Tribune.

DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL TICKET
The British Election.

Henry NJ Stsnles's defeat in North
Lambeth surprises no one. The wonder
is, as the Chicago Post says, after all the
hostile demonstrations by the Lambeth
mob that Mr.. Stanley ran so we'll. OF
4.91S votes he received 2 1914 This is
only $40 less than the conservative can
didste received in North Lambeth at the
last general election, in 1856
The defeat of Mr.. Stanley is a liberal
garland not by any means the only one
of the campaign. But ii is alresdv ap-
parent that the extravagsnt claims
made week ago in behalf Of Mr..
Gladstone are not to be realized
There is no landslide. The liberal
leaders are still claiming a msjori,y in
the next house, but the more moderate
of them make out the msjority to be q
very small one or yield it altogether. 1t
is by no means certain that the grand old
man will achieve the Growing perform
ance of his career and be returned 10
power this year.
Since, however, Mr. Gladstone has re
ceived unofficial assurance that he has
many more years 10 live, he need not
despair. After Salisbury shall have gone
the way Of ordinary men the sage of
Hswarden may be found IN some-seversl
future campaigns, giving battle to sons
and grandsons of the present generation
of conservative leaders.

A Cheap Bookcase.

l have seen cheap bookcase made OF
three shoe boxes, each one being a third
shorter than the other; these graduated
boxes were set one upon the other so that
the three ends came together, making a
straight side on one side and three steps on
the other. All the shelves were edged
with strips of split bamboo, pieces of the
same covering any rough edges that came
in sight. The steps held large vases, pots
of palms and Towering plants, which made
the bookcase thing of beauty as well as
utility and frightened wonderfully an
otherwise dark corner. - Decorator and

The Boston Journal said recently that
those manufacturer who have not signed
the remonstrance of the National Asso-
citation of Wool Manufacturers ''are too
few and inconspicuous to require atten-
ton" The remonstrance is against free
wool. The American Wool Reporter,
itself a strong supporter of protection
takes the Boston Journal to task and
says that in Massachusetts only 1863
wooden manufacturers signed the re-
monstrance, while 205 refused to sign it.
1t also says that many of these are
very important manufacturers, and that
ian analysis of New Hampshire, Con-
nechcut, Rhode Island and other states
would show similar results"

rhn victorr nnd the spolIs.

Mr.. Cleveland took time to revise MS
speech delivered at the Willard dinner,
and the talk as it is given out seems to
be a matured hint to somebody. Tho
President.elect said that his feeling OF
iubilation was almost entirely obscur-
cd by realization, nearly painful, OF
the responsibility 1 have assumed in
the sight OF the American people"
Mr.. Cleveland may be supposed to
know to what extent a feeling can be
obscured. In passing We may at least
be permitted to regret that he feels
this way aboutit. He was talking
about contracts and performances
and this sort OF thing when
he said: "If we see nothing in our vic
tory but license to revel in partisan
spoils we shall fail at every point"
Ii Mr.. Cleveland and those near to
him see anything less than this when
they take holdin Washington the work.
ers in his party will regard the recent
landslide as barren victory, wanting
in tho essential elements OF q simon
pure Democratic triumph.
The kind OF administration Mr.. Cleve.
land seems to refer to may delight the
few remaining Mugwumps, but itwould
be as husks to the great Democratic
party. And speaking OF the contracts
where is Tammany to come in?
1t has been denied that Mr.. Cleveland
is under any contract TO Tammany.
This may be his understanding, but il
it had been the understanding of Boss
Crocker and the rest OF them different
return would have been made from
New York city on election day.
Thomas G. Shearman, eminent free
trader and close friend OF Mr.. Cleve-
land, give dramatic account OF an un-
successful effort to commit the Demo-
cratic nominee to bargain with Tam
many. This happened ut one OF those
dinners before the election at which it
was endeavored to fix up matters be-
tween Mr.. Cleveland and the tiger
State Chairman sheehan was urging
Mr.. Cleveland to sign the articles. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Sherman Mr.. Cleveland
let 90 from the shoulder in this fashion;
Mr. sheehan, have listened with the utmost
attention, have followed you very carefully
and think | understand you In reply, wish
10 say that I'll be - Ii I'll give any men any
such pledges, and I'll be dOubly - II I'll give
You the pledges you ask for.
If we appreciate correctly the force
OF the dashes it is reasonable to sup
pose that Mr.. Cleveland was either hot
in his great collar or shrewdly simulat-
ing transitory frenzy. At all events, if
Mr.. shearman is to be believed, Mr..
Cleveland did not on that occasion enter
into bargain with the machine.
If there was no contract at any time
with anybody, to whom was Mr.. Cleve-
land referring in his speech at the Viii
lard dinner2 He had somebody in
mind when he sounded that tocsin.
Considering the time and the circum.
stances it was notable utterance.
