The assertion that our IA tiO1nl beauty
is declining is more easily made than
substantiated, for r. is difficult to adj
luce satisfactory evidence. Surprising
We place in the witness box number
Of octogenarians or nonogenar;ans, we
are not wholly convinced that their
pleadings and opinions are free from
bias, it being an admitted fact that

I am inclined to hold. with the Daily
Graphic, that youth may take comfort.
Look at the park in summer, go to our
country houses in winter, or accompany
me to the covert side. and YOU will
agree that beauty incarnate is still
among us. Tell me if we are not rear

lackadaisical grandmothers. Are we

and sitting at the feet of hygienic sci

and exercise? Is coddling so rampant?
Is Julia now afraid to walk Il mile or

pass verdict that the allegation of de-
clining beauty stands proven.
Yet another word on the subject
Mr.. James Payn. in the Illustrated Lon
don News, is gallant enough to put in a
word for the present-day girls. Wheth-
CT as beautiful as formerly, or not, they
Surpass women of all other nations.
A friend of his. who is familiar with
Circassia. tells him that the women
Of that country are not to be compared
with our own for good looks. It is the
picture outside the cream-pots which
has misled the world. And it is certain,
he adds, that Eastern potentates, who
are, or who think themselves, connois-
seurs in the matter, award the palm
to the feminine population of these
isles

Persia, on both occasions when he hon
ored us with a visit, was "How much
do you ask?", addressed to the fathers

mind to purchase.

Manicures for Half II Dollar.

In the large cities the young women
who know how to manicure has dis
covered that she can make more money
and be more Independent by going to
her customers at their houses, says Il
writer in the Ladies' Home Journal
She carries in her little bag all her i'm
Elements, and if her services are rem
dered regularly she will be required
from half an hour to an hour. For this
she is paid so cents, and as her time is
usually taken up from = in the morn
ing until in the evening" it is easy to
understand that she can make a nice
little income, especially as, if she is
kept after 6, she charges, properly
enough, 81. The visiting hairdresser
is equally fortunate. She comes to do
your hair every day at the hour which
is most convenient; it is not expected
that she arranges it in extremely elab-
crate way, but she brushes it we'll,
ShampOOs it once a month, curls' the
front and arranges the back as you
like it. For this she is paid 50 cents.
She can get through almost any head

tanned, and if her services are needed
for the evening and an elaborate colt
fure is demanded she charges 81 extra.
During the gay season the extras are
many, and as at all times women like
to have their hair look well, most of
them are quite willing to pay the price
that she asks. OF course, in the case
of the manicure and the hairdresser
the first struggle is to get the GUS
toners; after that to keep them. This
is done by. having an agreeable manner,
but one that is not familiar You must
remember that you are not paying So
cial visits, but those of business. Then
you must be prompt and neat The
best hairdresser ever knew lost most
of her customers because she was slov-
emily in appearance. and another one
who had every qualification necessary
to make a success in her special bust
ness was equally unfortunate because
she was never on time.

THE ILLINOIS CORN CROP.
Reports Show an Average Yield of 81
Bushels-Large Yield After All.

hepOrcs Show an Average Yield Of 81
Bushels-Larse Yield After All.
The reports of crop correspondents
in Illinois received at the Office of the
secretary of the state board of agri-
culture under date of Dec. !, confirm
the reports made on Aug. l, which
were to the effect that the corn crop
OF Illinois was not so seriously dam
aged by the drouth as many per- ons
feared. The area of the crop planted,
6.705,476 acres, is the greatest since
1889 and.exceeds the 1898 area bv
nearly 500, 900 acres. OF this area,
3,009, 900 acres was in northern Hi
nois, 2,709.5 500 acres in central Hi
nois, and $50, 900 acres in the south
ern division of the state. The aver
age yield per acre Of 81 bushels is
larger than in 1892 and 1898. In the
northern division of the state 81
bushels per acre was the average
yield, and in the central division So
bushels, while in southern Illinois
only Is bushels per acre were har-
vested.
The total yield of POS, 637, 900 bush
els for 1894 is 81, 949, 900 bushels lar
ger than the yield in 1898. The in
creased yield in northern Illinois in
1894 amounted to II, 63S, 900 bushels.
and in central Illinois to 90, 900, 600
bushels, but in the southern division
of the state there was decrease of
2,5S9, 900 bushels compared with last
year. Great damage was done to the
crop in this section by chinch bugs,
which invaded the corn fields after
wheat harvest. The drought was
also more severe in this portion of
the state. where much of the soil on
the uplands is thin and not fitted to
sustain much life during dry sea-
son. In counties where the corn crop
was almost a failure the difference in
the yields on upland or prairie soil
and in the bottom lands is noted.
In the Different Sections.
While the quality of the corn this
year is very near an average in both
northern and central Illinois, being
93 and 80 per cent respectively, in
southern Illinois it is quite inferior
being but 20 per cent of an average.
The same causes which reduced the
yield also lowered the quality, and a
good deal of light, chaffy corn is re.
ported, and in sections in which the
chinch bugs were especially numer.
ons. the ears are not well filled out
The long dry autumn was excellen,
for riPening and harvesting corn,
and but little immature or soft or
rotten corn is reported.
