ABOUT GRAY HAIR.

Treat 1t Carefully Kather Than At
tempt to Dye 1t.
Concerning gray hair, there seems to
be no rational theory for change in the
color of the hair, except that of loss of
pigment color and presence of gaseous
matter III the hair shaft. This may be
the result of natural or artificial causes
Probably among the Americans the early
age at which the hair blanches is due
largely to nervous conditions. Mental
ana physical disturbances undoubtedly
often affect the secreting apparatus of the
halr, destroying coloring matter, for his
tory records instances of the change of
hair from dark to white in a single night
through the cerebral excitement of some
great loss, bodily or mental anguish:
neither can coIoring matter once entirely
destroyed, be restored. Do not believe
the quacks who pretend to restore gray
hair to the youthful color in any other
way than by dyeing, for science has not
yet discovered a method by which pig
ment, once entirely exhausted, can be re-
neWed. Dark hair may be bleached, bat
no sane person could be deceived by the
uuIJ, lusterleSs yellow OF hair so treated
helther does dye deceive anyone, and
woman who would look charming with a
head OF white hair kept perfectly clean
and f1ufy with legitimate treatment, be-
comes disgusting when she resorts to
such hagrantly artificial means for keep
ing the hair dark or blonde.
When ones hair turns gray attention
should be directed toward keeping it
scrupulously clean, toward keeping the
complexion delicate and fine with color.
the eyes bright, and the expression ami
mated, ,fora brilliant face framed by snowy
hair has peculiar charm, especially If
the hair be abundant and becomingly ar

o'clock this morning. 1t was the first
visit he had made to the city in two
weeks. He came alone, and was met by

the pronounced limp which characterized
his walk from the carriage into The house
There were very few callers in the

behalf of the Speaker, came TO Inq uire

A PRIMEVAL CITY.
The Center of Ancient Egean Civil
iZatIon Discovered at Crete.

Inc center OF Ancient -Egean Civil
fzation Discovered at Crete.
But of all the centers of Cretan an
tlqulty, by far the most imposing is the
site of tie ruined primevaI city, now
known as Goulas, from the Turkish
word for tower, of which the ancient
name Is still lost in the mist of time
The city, indeed, seems to have been de-
serted before the dawn of history. Among
the many relics that l was able to collect
from the spot, including a series of Ny
cen2an gems, not fragment belonged
to later times. The walls and buildings
are almost without exception built in a
rude "Cyclopean" style, and there is
nothing visible that can be safely called
Hellenic" IN the latter sense of the word.
Inc site itself was visited by Captain
Spratt, who wrongly identified it with
the ancient OlouS, which is still marked
by the village of Elunta and considerable
ruins on the neighboring isthmus of
Splnalunga. But how much is still TO be
made out by the explorer may be gath
cred from the fact that it was only alter a
second day spent among the ruins that l
came upon a second and hitherto unde-
scrlbed acropolis, on the summit of which
were the lower walls of q building, the
hall or megaron of which shows close
points OF com parISOn with more than one
building with the Sixth or Mycen2an
city OF Troy-the true Homeric Pera-
gamos. For Vastness OF extent the ruins
OF GouIas are surely unriValed among
the primeval remains on European soil.
Wall rises within wall, terrace above ter
race. and, what can hardly be paralleled
elsewhere, the dwelling-house them
selves, OF the same Cyclopean construc-
ton, are still partly standing within the
walls. From the acropolis nights opens
out panorama OF sea and land worthy of
the colossal ruins around. The giimpses
OF the neighboring coast land bring home
to us the TACT that we are within hail of
the chief harbors of Eastern Crete, look
ing out toward the islands stepping-stones
to Asia Minor. There can be little dou bt
that future research and much needed
excavation will reveal in Goulas a prin-
cipal center of dIgean civilization.-Lon-
