| am going to do what I set out to do.
"My experiments with the kaleidoscope
have been directed toward this end:
"First to mount the photographs on
glass plates and throw the pictures by
means of magic lantern upon a
screen. Then, instead of looking into
peephole, large number of spectators
might watch the moving picture.
Second, to combine the phonograph
with the kaleidoscope so that while the
figures had visible motion on the curtain
their words might be heard plainly by
the audience.
81 am prepared to announce that this
throwing of pictures upon a screen
has actually been accomplished IN my
laboratory, and we have had the figures
in motion there SO that the eye could
detect no change from one picture to
another. There are various improve
ments yet to be make, however, before
this form of the kaleidoscope will be
ready for the public.
when these things are all accom-
pIished, as they will be some time, it
will be possible to catch every gesture of
Chauncey M. Depew delivering an after
dinner address, and every infection of
his voice. and to exhibit both to admir-
ing audiences hundred years after he is
dead. 1t will be possible to see and near

ROYAL German Dinners.

A characteristic of all dinners given to
the court and military officials by the en-
peror and empress of Germany is that
there is always provided dish of sweet
meats, which holds as well pictures Of
the royal pair and their children, each
bonbon having a likeness painted upon
it. And when the hosts retire there is
something approaching scramble among
the dignifed officers and functionaries
for one of these much valued souvenirs
to take home to equally eager wives and

Ways of jackson.

Andrew Jackson was a model Of
republican simplicity and frankness.
At the table his guests were pro-
vided with two forks, one of steel
and the other of silver, the presi-
dent always choosing the former.
His hospitality at the white house
was characterized by the same Law
ishness that had made the Hermit
age famous, and not infrequently he
was compelled to exc out his sal
ary by drawing on his private re-
sources and pay for his dinners with
his cotton crop. During his admin
istration the dinners at the white
house savored more of continental
usages than of the stiff English for
malitics previously in vogue. Tho
guests, instead of leaving after cof-
fee had been served, as was the Gus
tom during the administration OF
Mr.. Adams, were wont 10 iinccr for
several hours. The hospitab!e habit

WASHINGTON ETIQUETTE.
The interchange of Cour:esies Be

The interchange of Cour;esies Be-
tween ministers and Senators.
The wife of new senator once
told me, says a writer in Kate
Fields Washington, that she was
determined to make no social mis-
takes, so--wise woman that she was
she asked Senator EdmuDds,
whom she knew was thoroughly
conversant- with every detail of Of
fetal etiquette, by reason Of his
long career in the senate, if it WAS
not incumbent upon her to make
her first visit TO the wives Of for
eign ministers. He replied:
Certainly not, madam; a sem
ator never makes the first visit
upon a foreign minis ter"
So, thanks TO her good sense in
consulting an old senator, this lady
did not make the mistake that a
few less wise senators wives have
done Of making first visits when
etiquette required that they should
receive them. OF course, as the
senate has increased il size the last
few years, it can hardly be expected
that foreign ministers should call
upon all new senators, but they
ought to upon the old ones, and
upon others whom they wish to
know. l think the charming wife
of one of the diplomats has adopted
q very wise rule, as she remarked to
q senator's wife to whom she had
just been presented: Il know it is
my place to call upon senator's
wives, but / wait until | meet them,
and l shall now give myself the
pleasure of calling on you"
If the ladies of the diplomatic
corps would follow the lead of this
popular lady they would avoid some
of the mis- takes that they now make
in ourpfiicial etiquette.

From Cleopatra po~!n Women Have

From Cleopatra pown Women Have
Resorted to the Practice.
The art Of dyeing the hair is at
least as old as the time Of Christ; it
was by rcsorting to such aids 10
beauty thai Cleopatra tried to cap
ture Cesar. All through history
ladies of fashion have tried to i'm
prove upon nature by artiiiciaiiy
coloring that which st. Paul tells us
is their glory. !
In the heyday of Venice, the faciie
beauties of the city of the lagoons
dved their hair a red to which Titan
was not ashamed to afiix his name. !
The belle OF bellies in that day had
red hair, not bright red, but a dull
red, with glints Of crimson. More
recently, almost in our own time,
rage arose for bright blonde hair, as
TO which there was a tradition that
il had been popular with the Greek
hetairae.
Blonde heads blocked the thor
oughfares, and young ladies OF good
rcputc did not disdain to employ the
DYER until MS services were monop-
oized by another class. In our day
the popular color is a bright shade OF
auburn-the blonde cendre OF the
boulevarda - and silly girls go
through martyrdom to impart that
tint to their locks. For the p0pu
larity of blonde hair the argonaut
finds this excuse, that it is rarer
than black or brown hair, and finer.
Everybody knows that the legend of
golden fleece was suggested by the
ardor with which Jason and other
Greek connoisseurs pursued the
blonde-hairea nlaidens of Colchis.
Almost all hair dyes consist OF sui
phuc and acetate of lead, both Of
which are injurious to SO delicate
plant as human hair. a steady
course Of either will impair the vi
tality of the hair papilla and may de-
strov the medulla altogether. Won
en- who bleach their hair. use perox-
ide of hydrogen. which, after time,
imparts AT unnatural and wiglike
luster to the hair. a more danger
Gus dye still has for its basis nitrate
of silver.
When this is used the hair is first
washed with sulphuret of potassium;
the nitrate is applied while it is still
wet. In all these cases the drug is
adulterated with q pigment of the
desired color aud the effect for tha
time is TO substitute that color for
the natural hue of the cortical sub
stance or hair bark. It need hardly
be said that the effect OF continued
use OF such medicaments is to en-
feeble and ultimately rot the root
sheaths. Badness then cnsuas, and
for that science has discovered nj
remedy.

portraits of a famous American
eagle. ''Peter. the Mine Bird" he
was called by everybody in Phila-

was equally rs great as that of "Cld
Abe" the Wisconsin war eagle, the
latter being really o spring chicken
