FATHER zIELENsKI RESIGNS.
End of the Trouble i'm Stevens Point
Catholic Congregation.


Catholic Congregation.
Stevens Point, Wis, Nov. 90
The trouble between Father lie
lenski- rector of Catholic congrega-
ton here, and his flock has been ended
by his withdrawal from that charge.
His successor has not yet been appointed.
Bishop Messmer decided last week that
the only way to settle the difficulty was
for Father Zielenski to resign his posi-
ton. This view of the matter was
laid before him ard was followed by
his withdrawal.
About eight months ago an attempt
was made to burn the parsonage and
later the church and parsonage were
destroyed by fire. 1t was alleged that
enemies of Father Zielenski were back
of the plot. About seven weeks ago
someone fired shot through the window
of the parsonage at the priest, but the
bullet was imbedded in door. That
was tire elimination of the trouble.

PRESERVE THE HAIR.
Some Useful Suggestions to Those Vine
Value What Is Invaluable.

Avoid tight fitting hats and collars,
also close fitting caps, unless these be
of some porous material. The two former
prevent a due supply of blood to the
parts; hence the hair papille are put,
as it were, on short commons all the
hme the hats and collars are worn. The
caps engender caloric, which sets mp
irritation and ultimately that most
stubborn form of dandruff-namely
pityriasis Il. e., hranny scales). Note
that all the headgear which is not porous
should be ventilated at top and sides to
allow a free current of air.
Never sit or stand with the top of the
head near gas light or lamp light The
heat thrown out is apt to paralyze the
scalp tissues and dries up the hair itself.
Don't wash the head oftener than
once fortnight, when first rub in the
yolk of an egg and thoroughly rinse out
with warm water. into which las been
thrown pinch of borax. Dry carefully
and apply little pure olive oil.
Beware of the common practice of
dipping the comb in water when ar
ranging the hair. 1t promotes decompo-
sition and rancidity of the natural oil,
and so leads to "rotting. y
If the hair be naturally dry, apply
little olive oil occasionally. If natural
ly oily, occasionally wash away the ex
cess of sebaceous secretion by means Of
n lather or tepid water and soap bark
(Quitlaya saponaria).
Salt water is most injurious to the
hair, for which reason when sea bath
ing wear an oil cap.
Always treat the scalp as if you loved
it, Take to heart DIR. Godfrey's dictum
that every touch affecting so delicate
texture as the scalp should be soft and
soothing, every application bland and
mild. " Don't use stiff bristled or wire
brushes. and i'll all cases brush gently.
Also, always brush out the hair before
attempting to comb it, and use the comb
as little as possible.
Have the ends of the hair clipped once
month. if only to prevent them from
splitting. But don close crop. -Phila-
delphia Times.

Queen Victoria's Personality.

The heart of gold, the will of iron, the
royal temper of steel, the pride, the
patriotism, and the deep piety of Vic
toria have been enshrined in small but
vigorous frame, the mignonne aspect of
which especially strikes those who be-
hold her for the first time in these her
"chair-days." 1t was reported how,
when Prince Albert was dying, he rous-
ed himself from period of wandering
to turn with ineffable love to his spouse
and Sovereign, saying to her with kiss,
Prince Consort was actually passing
away, after those twenty-one years of
welded happiness, it was told how the
Queen bent over him and whispered,
ut is your little wife" at which last
words the Angel of Death stayed his
hand while once again the dear eyes
opened and the dying lips smiled. But
though this be so, no one who has been
honored by near approach to Her
Majesty, or has ever tarried in her
presence, will fail to testify to the ex
treme majesty of her bearing, mingled
always with the most perfect grace and
and gentleness. Her voice has, more
over, always been pleasant and musical
to hear, and is so now. The hand which
holds the sceptre of the seas is the soft
est that can be touched; the eyes which
have grown dim with labors of state for
England, and with too frequent tears,
are the kindest that can be seen;-Sir
Edwin Arnold, in the February Forum.

Sohiaparelli.

Schiaparelli, the astronomer who first
discovered the so called canals" Of
Mars, did 80 with much smaller tele-
scope than those in use in many other
observatories at that time. And yet he
is a very nearsighted man. Garrett p
'Serviss of Brooklyn, in speaking of his
first interview with the eminent Italian,
said that Schiaparelli would hold Wis
itors card within five or six inches of
his eyes in order to deoipher it. The sin.
gular part of this story is not that
man with such an infirmity should be
able to Guido other astronomers for
keenness of vision depends rather upon
the retina than the conyexity of the
lenses of the eye, and the eyepiece of IA
telescope can be focused so as to suit
the latter. But it does seem little odd
that the gifted scientist in question
should habitually refrain from wearing
eyeg lasses. Possibly he has theory as
to the effect of their use upon his visual
powers

Old timers on the Kennebec say that
some of the companies are doing too
much planning and little later may be
sorry they have wasted so much ice.
An innovation on the Kennebec is
sweeping the ice fields with brooms.
This is done to locate the stones which
are afterward removed with bars. Each
year develops some new qurks in the
ice business, and the operators have to
bestir themselves to keep pace with
them.
The horses which are used on the
Kennebec ice fields are so accustomed
to dropping through the ice that they
don't seem to mind it. They are yanked
out little roughly to be sure, but they
take their medicine like the chickens
belonging to the family that was con-
