ELECTRIC BLEACHING.
Changing Brunettes Into Blondes on
Very Short Notice.

An enterpTisng bairdyer has projected a
scheme for making bleached blondes as fast
as the demand may require. The subject of
operation seats herself in an operating chair,
somewhat similar TO that used by the dentists,
and rests the back OF her neck on metal plate,
which is the negative terminal of a rather
strong battery, the current from which is suffi-
Client to exert moderate decOmpOsing action
on solutions OF salts. containing a bleaching
agent such as chlorine.
The tres.es are allowed to fall back OF the
chair and are dampened with solution of
what the inventor terms his secret. A brush
composed OF metallic brisles which have been
gid-d or platinlZed and which are electrically
connected 10 the source OF the current, thus
forming the positive pole OF the battery, Is
slowly aud steadily drawn through the hair.
A slight decomposition OF the salt held In So
luton takes place, the bleaching agent is liber-
ated and the colorlng matter In the hair is light
ened. The d1scoverer declares that the color
given 10 the darkened hair NAV be varied at
pleasure. and may also be carefully regulated;
furthermore he states that the color does not
resemble that of ''bleached" hair, but Is more
natural and i'll every way able TO deceive the
most expert in such matters.
While The idea is one which is attractive
from an experimental standpoint the object at
talned, IL his stat ments are true, Is one which
should be pushed into obscurity by minimum
amount of praise. Still olber identifying ~
effect of tie current Is obtained by this in
yenIor, who seems too fertile Ia such vanity
promoting ideas. He advertises TO make
ladies' lips 10 resemble coral In their dazzling
redness. His process Is, of course, an cleo
trical one. aud he produces an unhealthy red
dening of the lips by forcing an inflammation
by means of a so-called Faradic current.
There is pretty good evidence that his SNOWY
opel ating-roomS are well crowded by "bevy
OF beauties" at all times OF the day, and ii is
quite amusing to watch tn silly women who
have much more money than brains III their
disposal emerge from this gilded den feeling
their fevered lips with their tongues and trying
to smile while ''they are paying too dear for
their whistle" -Electric World.

CARE OF THE FEET.
The Trouble Is Not With Shoes, but
With WearerS.

1t is quite often the case that people find fault
with their shoes, particularly those made TO
order. AT the time OF delivery the shoes give
perfect satisfactiOn-they fit well, look well
and are good workmanship and material. But,
later Oh, the feet and their coverings fall to
agree, and then IL is that the bootmaker suffers
unjust criticism He is blamed because the
shoes are no longer comfortable, when the
fact is the change is not In the footwear, but in
the feet. Few portions of the body are more
complicated and sensitive than our pedal ex-
tremities; ana il one wishes 10 have his shoes
remain comfortable he must take good care of
the delicate parts of his anatomy they cover

OCEAN CABLES.
Some of the Oldest Laid Are Still
in Use

Noteworthy advances are being made In the
art OF submarine cabling. and some Of the new
cables are beautiful productions OF modern in
genuiy; but 1t is encouraging for those who
have invested their money in ocean telegraphy
to know that very large proportion Of the
oldest cable still remains ia active service.
The primeval cables break once In a while, a
repairing fleet is necessary. and an occasional
new link needs insertion. but by dint OF watch
ing and patching the old cable enables the re.
serve funds laid aside for their renewal TO take
on such gratifying proportions that the stock
holders could almost draw incomes from them
alone. The latest Atlantic cables are dis
tinclve chiefly for their greater weight of cop
possible in transmission. One OF them, with
500 pounds of copper per mile, gives 4 speed of
for y words per minute easily, while the other
with 600 pounds. is said to be capable OF fifty
words. In the old days 400 pounds was
good enough. and il remains to be seen
whether this will not suffice for the deep waters
of the Pacific.
Gables have been laid in $500 fathoms, but In
the Pacific 340o is figured on. Alexander

IN DETECTIVES HANDS.
How a Criminal Record Is at Time s

Inspector Michael Setback tells a story illus

the Inspector. 81 knew VINO were in the gang,
but couldn't GIT at them. or course, they
knew all the policemen and detectives

not police officer, but he knew the duties of
a detective and was perfectly reliable. This
was hand In glove with tile burglars, ana in
lime he became acquainted with the whole
gang IL was my intention to postpone the ar
rest until bad clear case.
Each day my friend reported the doings of
the gang. Things went on THIS way for sev-
eral weeks. Then one day my stooi-pigeon

"He said he was walking along the street
when he met two detectives. Thy had prob

so they began asking a lot Of questions. He
did not answer in a way 10 satisfy them, so
they arrested him on a ch rye OF vagrancy. He
would have spoiled The work he was doing. In

DESERVED TO MARRY.
This Is About Girl Who Has a
Onp Head

There WIS young man who had a girl
friend. lie went 10 see her at irregular inter-
walls. He made his last call one day last week.
She had some wedding.cake from the nuptials
OF friend of hers, and she was telling him of a
new way she had discovered for finding out
whether you were going to get married within
a year.
II will take some OF the cake" she said,
land put II IN this envelope, and will take
seven slips of paper and write on six of them
the names of six girls you Know. any one OF
whom you are likely 10 marry. Then / will
put the slips in the envelope with the wedding
cake and give the whole thing 10 you. Now,
YOU must lake 1t and put it under your pillow
when you go home. In the morning, the very
first thing after yen open your eyes. you must
take out one slip. DO this for seven mornings
in succession, and on the last slip will be the
name OF the girl you are sure 10 marry. IL the
blank comes last you will never marry"
- The young man was quite impressed with the
scheme. He took the envelope and promised
fai hfully 10 fulfill all the conditions and to
come back ana report al the end of seven days.
He went home and put the envelope under his
pillow. Next morning be drew out slip, and
on it was Tie name of the girl who bad given
the charm 10 him. He thought that that was
pretty tough luck, for he really liked the girl
very much. He was out rather late next night,
and when lie awuke he was IN hurry ana for
got all about the charm. When he got home
that night he began thinking the matter over
and wondering who lie other girls were.
He got the envelope and peered into it. The
slips were all carefully folded and he could not
see a name. Then his curiosity got the upper
hand. He took out all the slips and unfOlded
them. The remaining six had names ON them
aud in each instance The name was that OF the
girl who had prepared the charm. III sat
down ana thought long ana earnestly. Then
he put on his evening clothes and went stra ighl

SETTING TYPE IN JAPAN.
The Printer Must Keep the Run of

They are very keen journalists In the land of

ties from which even the hardened Western
newspaper man might shrink appalled,
"1he japanese written and printed character
consists of the Chinese ideographs, those COM
plicated square figures made I'D of an apparent
tumble OF ZigZags and crosses and ticks and
triangles and tails-the footprints of drunken
fy'-and of the original japanese syllabary
called kama.
"Of The former there are 10000 in all. OF
which perhaps IA, 0G0 constitute the scholars

common daily use, while the At simple char
acters of the kama are known to everybody
Therefore the japanese cOmpOSitOr has to be
prepared TO place In his stick any one Of over
1000 different types-truly an appalling task.
From The nature of the problem several con-
sequences naturally follow. First, he must be
good deal Of a scholar himself 10 recognize
all these instantly and accurately. Secondly,
his eyesight suffers fearfully, and he generally
wears Il huge pair of magnfying goggles; and
third, as 1t Is physically impossible for any one

method OF case arrangement has 10 be devised.
The typo therefore, of whom there are
only three or four on paper, sits at little
table at one end OF large room, with the case
containing his forty-seven kaua Syllables be-

cases OF type are arranged like the shelves in a
crowded library, passage Of three feet wide
being left between each two.

pieces, which he cuts into little taxes and
hands each of these TO one of half dozen boys
who assist him. The boy takes this and pro-
ceeds 10 walk about among The cases till he has

Chinese picture words emitting all the kama
syllables which connect them.
