heads Of smooth. glossy hair that stay
done up for days and nights are simply
well-dressed with glue and polish. The
bark of a tree. similar to the American
slippery-elm furnishes the mucilaginous
paste; ounce seed Is also used, but the
sticking qualities are not so coed. Well
gummed hair will stay In place a week.

Corns and Crooked Heels.

Shoes with crooked heels are the chief
support of the chiropodist profession.
DR.. Walsch. II New York surgeon, who
has been studying diseases of the feet
for the last ten years, attributes three
fourths of the corns that dis6gure the
modern foot to the uneven surface of
the sole leather; the rest are constitu-
tional. Many people would have corns
II they went barefoot. The majority
would suffer no Inconvenience IL they
kept the heels Of their boots in shape.
When the heel Is allowed to run down
the plane of the foot is changed. In
stead of being parallel to the ground.
the position is slightly oblique; the shoe
turns and the weight Is thrown on the
little toe or the bigtoe joint as the heel
'nclnes. Wear high heels, low heels or
spring heels, but see that they are true.
so as to give the foot even support.

COINAGE OF SILVER DOLLARS.
A Circular on the subject from Secretary
Carlisle.

WASHINGTON. ID. c.. September H.
A great many letters have been received
AZ the Treasury Department recently
making inquiries concerning the coinage
of silver dollars and the redemption and
cancellation of Treasury notes, and in
order TO avoid the labor Of repeating the
Information in an answer TO each letter.
Secretary Carlisle today dictated
memorandum on the subject for publ
cation.
The memorandum quotes the hrst, Sc
cond. and third sections OF the Sherman
act under which the silver now held by
the Treasury was purchased. and says;
IL will be seen from the foregoing that
while the law provides that redeemed
Treasury notes may be reissued. 1t also,
in the same section imposes an express
limitation upon the power TO reissue ny
declaring that mo greater OF less amount
OF such notes shall be outstanding at any
time than the cost of the silver bullion.
and the standard silver dollars coined
therefrom. then held in the Treasury pur-
chased by such notes" When such notes
are redeemed in gold there is no obstacle
in the way of their reissue, because such
redemption does not AFFECT the stock OF
silver held in the Treasury under the act
OF July H. $780, but when they are re-
deemed with silver coined from the put-
bion purchased under that act. they must
be retired and cancelled for. otherwise.
there would be, after the redemption ana
reissue. a greater amount or notes out
standing than the cost OF the silver
originally purchased, and then held In the
Treasury. and this IL expressly prohibited
by the statute. The purpose OF Congress
was TO prevent the duplication or the
currency. which would take place II the
notes and the silver purchased with the
notes could be outstanding at the same
time. Treasury notes received in the ordl-
nary course of business. or redeemed IN
gold, or exchanged for silver dollars not
coined from the bullion purchased under
the act Of July IA. 1880, are not retired
and cancelled. All such notes are reissued'
Prior TO the 1st day of July, 1881, stand

chased under that act. The so-called gam

leaving 500. 49, i6l to be held as fund to

At the beginning OF the present ad-
ministration. this sum OF $29. iso. i6l was
