CHINESE HAIR SOAP.
DfsagreeabIe to look at. but Has
Excellent Effect.

Excellent Efect.
In the great empire of China you run
across some very odd things, writes Mar
yherita Han. One of these is what we
might call hair soap, and is used for
shampooing purposes. How it is made
( never could find out, but from the
mere appearance of the article I should
say it was composed of fine curled hay,
oatmeal, wheat husks. grease and a lit
tie borax. 1t looks for all the world
ike some of the oil cakes which dairy
men feed to their COWS in the winter
time. In the market it is sold by the
cake, or to those who n afford the
luxury, in small pieces. The cake is
round or elliptical ip outline, from an
inch to two inches in thickness, from
twelve inches to two feet in length,
and from eight to fifteen inches in
width. 1t must weigh two or three
pounds.
In using it your maid breaks off a
piece about as large as an ordinary cake
If toilet a When applied to the hair
it produces a fair lather and the hay
and husk separate and work their way
into the scalp. h rubbing causes
them to polish the scalp as we'll as the
hair itself. The subsequent rinsing car
ries away all these vegetable ingredients
and leaves the hair and scalp in beauti-
tu1 condition; the former soft and silky,
the latter pink and warm. While the
hair soap is very ugly to look at and
seems altogether ridiculous, yet if you
use it once you are simply charmed with
your new acquisition and employ it reg
ularly thereafter.
Equally odd and useful are the tongue
scrapers. They are made of tin for the
very poor, of silver for the prosperous,
and of gold for the rich. They are
about the general dimensions of a whale
BONE, excepting they are much shorter.
The shortest are -four inches in length,
and from that they run up to a foot;
One end of the metal ribbon is attached
TO a silver ring, which the scraper can
be hung from a nail in the bath room
when not in use.
The edges are. not sharp, like a knife,
hut resemble that Of a screw driver;
What is wanted is an edge. that will not
cut on the one side, but will remove any
coating from the tongue upon the other.
Besides cleansing the tongue it is also
supposed to strengthen that useful men,
Der, and to keep 1t free from any erup-
tion. The blade is usually plain and
FURNISHED. but in the more expensive
styles it is chaste in patterns that are
almost Greek in their beauty and grace.

How a Glad Vacation Was Followed
BY Bitter Pain, !
A T~REACHEROUS ENEMY.
A Common Experience and the Les
won II Contains for People Fond
OF Livin. Out of Doors.

A young man in Philadelphia was IA
tally injured not long g by 50 innocent
a thing as a cuff button. He fell in sucn
a manner that the button was driven
deep into the flesh of his wrist. the
wound. though painful, was net consid-
cred dangerous. and no great ~precaution
was considered necessary until signs OF
lcckjaw appeared. Then, Of course. all
treatment was useless.
This is one example of the power for
mischief of little things. Here is an
other less dramatic but more common
and therefore. less impressive. People
who went from town to country in the
beautiful summer of 1885, delighted to
spend most of their time out of doors.
They ever lay or the soft grass at
night, watching the stars and enjoying
the cool breeze. If, upon arising, a man
found his back stiff he said, II must
have been in one position too long" II
the stiffness persisted until the next day
he said.'I guess l must ave a lit
tie cold"
But now vacations are over and the
autumn is well advanced. That sore
ness and weakness in the lower part OF
the back continue I'M with them are
other disorders. Shivering and fever al
ternate. there is IN uncomfortable feel
ing of lassitude at times, the urine Is
opaque and sometimes bloody. the skin
is pallid and the face bloated just be-
meath the eyes. Digestion is poor and
appetite almost gone.
Let US look the matter in the face
without f1inching. There is more h a
little cold. although in the beginning it
was only a sudden checking of the action
of the skin and kidneys. Now it is the
dreaded Bright's disease. a foe to life
quite as deadly as consumption. Conn
mon sense would dictate that no time be
lost in vain regrets that more prudence
was not exercised in the country. Let
us find a remedy if we can,
We are fortunate to know that War
ner's Safe Cure will bring back health
the kidneys. 1T is the function of the
Kidneys to expel from the system broken
down tissues in the form of urea and
uric acid, 9ogethtfgr with certs an SALTS salts
organ han the kidneys can rid the body
IF this death laden matter. Congested
inf1amed kidneys act as a drain to keep
poison in the system.
What makes Warmers Safe Cure the
wonder md admiration of the medical
profession, is it's power to soothe the in
1ammation in the kidneys and to allay
he congestion SO that the urine, once
9arries away the waste freely and
One does not necessarily die soon of
Rright's disease. He may lead a miser-
9ble uncertain invalid life for years. But
let the sufferer shake off his burden of
sckness and susnense. He will find
nope and health in warmers Safe Cure.

Real estate men are beginning to feel
encouraged at the prospects of business
in his city next year. First Of all, we
shall have the temporary supply of good
water from the East Jersey M4ter G1In-
pany. Second. we shall have, by bat
time. the permanence of a good supply
assured by the ratification of the Jersey
City Company's contract by the, Supreme
Court. Thirdly, the multiform improve
ments in progress or nearing completion
will help to attract residents and in
vestors. Finally, the election of Chan
cellor McGim and the return of the De-
mocracy to control of the Assembly will
be an earnest of lower taxes in the near
future, because then the fight will be on
in earnest for the taxation of the rail-
roads on a parity with private owners of
property in the several municipalities in
which their lives are situated.
Already, some of the dealers say they
feed a revival of interest in desirable resi-
dence locations. More bona fide sales of
vacant lots have been made in the last
month than in the six preceding. OF
course, the season had gone too far for
renting houses when the water question
was settled. but there is much reason to
hope for better things next year.
This has been a very progressive year
for Jersey City. A vast number of
streets nave been improved. Some very
fine ~thoroughfares nave been laid out.
The two viaduct projects from the lower
town to the Hill have been brought to
the verge of realization; Montgomery
street is being placed in good condition
and Mill Greek is really and truly being
abolished. This is a big record, and it
should a a speedy effect on our
municipal development.
