notice. Should n settlement not be ef- fected, the question may be dealt wi'h as may seem best. Sectional or ihaiV- iduai disputes. in the first Instance are to be referred to the soeiety's on- cials and the employer or his represen- tstives, If any dispute takes place re- specting the price of work. me job is to be proceeded with as on piece. and whatever the price may be when the dispute is settled. the same will be paid from the beginning of the job. Failing settlement by ordinary means. the terms Of settlement are to be adjusted by committee representing employers and tho Boiler-mskers' and Iron and Steel Shlpbuildcrs' society within four teen days. Power Is also given 10 each side 10 ask for q revision of rates In certain contingencies, and It is stipu- lated that work In all cases shall be pro- ceeded with without interruption pepd- Ing the settlement of . dispute. whether as 70 prices or otherwise. A standing committee os three on each side (exciu- slvc of the delegate on each slde) Is to be appointed for each river to consider local disputes. The scheme is to be tried for period of five years. to be afterwards terminable by six months notice on either side.
 This is an ingenious and a compre- honsive plan. One of It's chief merits Is that 1t provides time for thought before action. A good many labor problems could be solved without a strike if they could be dealt with more leisurely than they are by those who strike.

 It is inexplicable, but 1t is 8 fact, that when a man desires to satisfy himself as to the reason why some women do some things. lie does not as one would think natural, consult some sensible and intelligent woman of his acquaintance. but he sits down in solitude and ponders,
 After much vexation of the spirit and much stretching of his mental frame upon the rack of perplexity he evolves from his inner consclousness---A Theory! This theory he proclaims to the world as conclusive and when he has done this, sweet satisfaction steals over his weary spirit. and he saith, Behold I. even I, have unraveled a mystery! : ,P ".:t9:

Man and Rattlesnake in a Well. fES.ou, Tho MaCon TelevraDhl

Some days ago MT. Early White of South Macon was engaged in the sup erintending the cleaning out of his well. The work had progressed for some time when the idea struck him that he ought to go down in the well and see. how the work was being done. He was lowered to the bottom by rope and windlass that was used in drawing up the thrash, and clay from the we'll. The we'll digger who had the job in hand had come to the top to al- low the proprietor Of the premises to go down on his tour of inspection.
 When he reached the bottom he cast his eyes upward and saw to his utter horror the head of an immense rattle snake protruding out of the side of the l well less than six feet above his head. His hair rose on end, and those chilly sensations we'll known to those who l have been placed in such close quar- ters, crept down his back and pro- duced a surrendering sensation in his knees Further and further the snake swung out of his hole between two sec- tions of the curbing, until finally he lowered himself within few feet of the man, l,issing in threatening man. ner. and seeming ready at every mo- ment to spring at full length upon his victim. ,.& n-..f, ..s,1r a.,i"
 Recovering himself in moment of dire emergency, calculating closely be. tween life and death, MT. White called Justify to the men above to lower the bucket that he might be drawn to the ton before the snake made up his mind Iabout what he would do, having'it evi dently in mind to swoop down upor

 But his hope of escape by means o the bucket fell several degrees when i flashed into his mind that even if h' got into the bucket before the snak' plunged down on him the danger would not be over, for the reptile was 50 in furiated that it would strike him as h.
 passed up to the top.
 At this juncture of his distress tn bucket could be seen coming down

 The August maids have settled down to the best, most practical and pret- tiest of the fashions offered in the spring. They have discarded much, ig- nored much, modified the rest and adapted everything. The usual dress is some variety of skirt and fancy waist effect, Almost all gowns have been made up with one or more bodices; one of material to match the skirt, the oth- CT of silk, lawn, mull or chiffon to con- trast prettily. The result is as stated above. Crepons in soft grays and tans are shot with silk of delicate blue. lilac and rose. A skirt is made of this mate rial, with it goes a bodice of satin or moire to match the ground color, an-

 D. \. Tompkins. oi Charlotte, North Carolina, says that tho improvement pf cotton culture in Egypt is due to the kx-Confedsrats officers who. at the close pf the Rebellion. entered the khedive's army. They imported into Egypt a large quantity of the seed of the Sea 1sland cotton. which, planted in the Esyptian fields. produced the fine staple for which there is now so much de- tnand. MT. Tompkins holds that cot ton culture in the South has not im- proved since the war, and that what has been gained in speed has been lost In fineness. To-day cotton is rushed to the gin, whereas in old times cotton was stored some time before ginning, khs fibre absorbing just enough oil from the seed. which gave it some of that brown color and silky lustre peculiar now to the Egyptian cotton.

the question as to why women walk abroad with their ehins up and some what inclined to the left In q manner suggestive Of extreme arrogance ana disdaiH. We are asked to believe that 1t is because, there Is an abnormal as- velopment of the bumps upon the pack of the head, their weight forcing the head backward, and consequently push Ing tAe chin upward,
 While it is true that the bump of self-esteen, has little 10 do with this top-lofty carriage of the head. 1t Is equally true that other prominenees. located by phrenologists at the back or the skull. have no weight in the mat ter. since theee are fully balanced by the development of other bumps in the spiritual region" and the region of intellect" It Is. however. due to . bump. and that one of daily growth and of nightly demolishing.
 This. protuberance is known as the Psyche knot, though its sun outward curve Is often compared to that of teapot handle. It is not necessary to describe the process of "doing up" a Psyche knot: It Is sufficient to state that when a twister a-twisting has twisted her such a twist it is c very compact and hard twist. exercising considerable strain upon the roots of the hair and drawing the head back ward. As the heavier part ~ the coll that surrounds the handle usually comes upon the right unless the hair Is ex- ceptionally even. there Is also a ten- dency to draw the head toward the right, thus throwing the chin out to the left. Now If above this knot be skewered a hat rather heavily loaded at the rstern"with ribbons and other frip- peries. 1t will be evident that 1t would be almost impossible to carry the head in any other position than the one which has so excited the curiosity and the mental stress of our brother man.
 This Is all about chin in the air. They are not the outward token of inward characteristics but are induced by ex- terior afrangements alone; not to be looked upon as physiognomical signs but as the effect of the popular mode of hair dressing.
