How the Beard Should Be Cut.

Men with long, thin faces should have
round boards, if any. But if a mans face
is abnormally round and fat he should
wear an imperial, as the narrow, long
variety of the Vandyke beard is called.
Oddly enough, it is the Americans who
chiefly favor this form, though their faces,
being long and narrow, need it less than
any other and would often be improved by
a round, full beard, trimmed rather shor
There is one good argument against e
beard which ought to have some weight.
Itnearly always robs the head of hair. 1t
is very seldom that man can maintain a
luxuriant growth of both after the age Of
40. Perhaps this may be one reason that
whenever long boards have been worn the
hair has been cut short, and whenever the
head locks have been permitted to be long
tho beard has almost entirely disappeared.
II is a mistake for short men to wear the
beard too long. The head should be little
less than one-seventh the length of the
whole body, and the capillary addition TO
its size throws it quite out of proportion.
On very tall man, inclined to leanness
and angularity, long beard is almost
equally mistake unless he should happen
to be so bountifully supplied by nature
that he can have it of width proportionate
TO its length and so thick as TO convey an
idea of almost superintendent fullness. He
will probably pay for this, however, by
being very bald on the top of his head

Pin Money.

A curious custom that once prevailed in
the south more widely than in the north
was that of giving the woman whom one
invited for drive or outing small sum
with which to buy flowers, fruit or con-
fectionery to enhance the pleasure of the
event This money, which probably varied
with the fortunes of the gallant, was
called pin money" A writer in Good
Housekeeping tells OF young married
woman, now a grandmother, who encoun-
tered the custom many years ago in Sara
toga, when that place was still the resort
of good southern families. She had been
invited TO drive with stately old school
southern gentleman and his daughter, and
after she had accepted the invitation TO
her surprise the father opened his hand
some purse and gave her a silver dollar.
Puzzled at SO queer a proceeding, she called
up an elderly woman who was a social
authority, who explained TO her that it
was pin money" and it was decided to
invest it In bunch of roses to carry in
the hand while driving.

THE PRETTIEsT HAND OF ALL
n Was Described by the Blacksmith After
the Whist Game.

Since iron came into use the towering
form OF the smith, as we have watched
thu sparks fly from his anvil, has stood
for the synonym of manly strength, integ-
rity and honesty. Novelists have written
him a hero, poets have sung OF his strong
arms ard his broad forehead, and Mr..
Murray, in beautiful measure, has related
the true incident OF THE Smith OF Ra-
genbach," who saved the lives Of hun

one with a clean cut. classical face, who
was introduced as Colonel H, editor
Of local paper. The other was in his

marks OF having been washed for the &C

DENVER, Colo, Sept. I'm the irriga-

sas. national lecturer of the congress,
spoke on ''The True Significance
OF the Irrigation Movement III
Regard to Arid Lands. "He
denounced the letter of Secretary
Morton TO congress in which he said "the
meetings have nothing TO do with practical
irrigation" as absolutely untrue. Judge
Emery advocated small farms and storage
reservoirs and an irrigation survey for the
purpose of discovering and distributing
the water of the country for irrigation pur-
poses. Recess was then taken until 2
o'clock.
In the afternoon the committe on reso-
luton presented its report upon reas-
sembling. It consisted of a majority and
minority report and an address to
the American people. The debate on
these reports were limited to four
hours, ten minutes To each speaker The
resolutions were discussed until II o'clock
tonight, when an adjournment was taken
until tomorrow, without any vote having
been taken, 1t is probable that the ma
jority report will he adopted. The fight
is over the proposition TO put arid lands
