The heads of infants should not be
washed in brandy, whisky, spirits Of harris
horn or other stimulating washes. They
do no good, cause pain, and may 80 irritate
the tender scalp as to cause disease
For cleansing the head, soap and wster,
or water with little borax in it, are all
that is needed. After washing the scalp a
soft hair brush should be used This viii
remove any dirt or dandruff, and will not
irritate the skin as a comb would be likely
to do.
The hair OF both boys and girls should
be kept short till 8 or years of age. This
win conduce to cleanliness; prevent great
deal of trouble in combing and washing;
will leave no harbor for the abominable
creepers to which children are exposed,
and by keeping the head cool will render
children less liable to the infammatory
affections OF the brain, to which they are
strongly predisposed at their time of life
Thus managed, the hair will be smooth
and glossy. and accumulations on tho
scalp will be prevented.
The custom of putting caps on infants
having been abolished by all well informed
people, it is hardly necessary to say that
the practice should be abandoned by all,
Is the head is warm enough without the
cap, is very likely to be too warm with it,
and in this way causing the brain a6eo-
tions to which children are 50 prone.-

The Life for . Singer.

"What is the best food for a singerr' Is .
question very often asked of me, and Of
all professional singers. l reply, 1.-The
plainest food is by far the best" Good,
plain. but nourishing food; for that is the
best for health, and to be well in health Is
to be well in voice, and good health is alb
solutely necessary for good singing. Some
few things should be entirely avoided, such
as nuts, for instance, which affect the
throat as well as the digestion. To lead a
regular life is also absolutely essential, and
young-and indeed all-artistes, If they
wish to excel, must live for their art alone,
and must give up great many pleas
ures;'' but if this, as it should do, enables
the artistic to become great, then they will
have their reward for all sacrifices.
To be artistes they should live as artistes
go whenever possible to hear and to see
fine singing and fine acting; endeavor to
see fine pictures, fine statues; read clever
books and the biographies Of great men
and great historical characters; to live, In
fact, in an atmosphere of art and of intel
lect, which will help them far more than
at first they may be disposed to think in
their own artistic career.-Mme. Albani-
Gye in Ladies' Home Journal.

An Enterprising Widow.

II have" says Maine pension agent,
"what l consider a funny pension case
on hand. Several years ago l secured a
pension for soldier of certain regi-
ment and company, and then, after his
death, secured pension for his wild
ow. Now she comes to me to help her
secure another pension as the widow of
another member Of the same regiment.
You see that since l secured her first
widows pension she had married COM
rade in arms of her first husband, and
now that he, too, is dead, with frugal
ity and economy that are commendable
and according to Scripture, she is ap-
plying for the second pension. I have

An automatic machine, which forms,
oils, weighs and seals packages, is being
introduced into houses where large quanti-
ties of fine cut tobacco, soda, starch, etc,
are put up. The operations of the machine
are curious and novel in every particular,
and yet quite simple. The machine con-
sists of a series of forming blocks, recep-
tacles, folders. gummers and feeders, all
working in harmony, 30 that the packages
are being smoothly and continuously pro
duced. The forming blocks SUCCESSFULLY
size the paper, which instantly afterward
Is wrapped around them, folded and gum
med at the end. The paper sacks are then
plunged into receptacles, filled. folded on
top and sealed. The manifest saving In
labor thus effected would seem to warrant
the claim of the inventor that If the ma
chine is worked to it's full capacity 1t will
pay for itself in 275 working dsys.-New

A Life Search.

Men in the ministry are brought into
contact with cranks Of all sorts. Their
name is legion. and the subject Of re-
ljgion, which appeals strongly to the
imagination and gives full scope to
speculation, has special fascination for
them. If preachers would write out
their experiences with this class Of per-
sons there would be no scarcity Of spicy
reading. 1t was harmless kind Of
crank that Bishop Thomas Bowman, Of
this city, ran against one time at camp
meeting. On that occasion he preached
from the following text; "As Moses
lifted up the serpent in the wilderness,
even SO must the son of man be lifted
up." The most attentive listener in the
congregation was tall, lank individual,
with wild, deep set eyes and long hair.
At the conclusion Of the sermon he
made bee line for the bishop, and the
latter, divining the character Of the
man, tried to get away from him, but
failed.
swell, now, my brother" said the
bishop, with just little pique in his
voice, for he was very tired and the
weather was hot, what is it you wisny"

window Curtain Sale. Decreasing.

A clerk in one of the New York dry
goods stores says that the demand for
rich curtains for windows has fallen off
of late because so many wealthy fam
lilies have gone in for the craze of having
coats-of-arms and other heraldic devices
worked in on the hangings of their win
dows. Some two or three swell shops
on Fifth avenue introduced the hobby,
and have done a fairly large business.
These particular firms supply draperies
different from those in stock in most of
the dry goods and upholsterers' places,
and the decrease in sales in the latter
stores is noticeable. Francisco Ar

Epilepsy is SO large cause of en-
forced idleness among the working peo-
pie in England that colony has been
established in country place within an

perform lucrative labor suited to their

one successfully carried out in West

come hundred acres there will be built
cottages to hold from ten to twenty in
mates. The sexes will be separated,
and also the children from the adults.
Market gardening, spade and barrow
labor, COW keeping, dairy work and
poultry farming will be the first indus
ties; then gardening and fruit culture,
and later on will follow bootmaking,
carpentering, bookbinding, printing and

Relasco's Early Playa

David Belasco, the playwright, says: In
my early days used to be indefstigsble
In bringing plays of mine to managers.
One manager suspected of never reading
any PLAYS, SO tried trick on him. One
day gave him a roll of blank paper tied
With red ribbon. He received the roll po-
litely. and told me to call in two weeks. 1
called as he had requested, and he said he
had read the play, but that unfortunately
Il wouldn't do. Then slowly unrolled the
blank paper before his eyes, held it up TO
him and enjoyed the comedy situation.

What a Widow Is.

II was Sunday school class, and the
teacher believed in asking questions to
see how clearly the scholars understood
their lessons. The widow of Ham was
the subject, and the teacher thought she
would be quickly answered when she

a silence until she nodded to the small
boy at her left and said, You know
