statement with one from Il. =. Boyd,
Esq, fully corroborating what he
says. and with letters from A. F..
Denning, John G.. Tobin, Capt. G. T..
Smith, s. b. Woodson, S. II. Turner

an inch from the head. And then took
the long rope Of hair and wrapped it
around her head. fastening it with small
daggers Of black wood.
And that takes me TO fancy pins. Do
you know:
THAT Mrs. William As55T sets tho
style Of pins?
THAT her daughter-in-law, Mrs. John
Jacob Astor. setb the styles for braids,
and that one of the other daughters OF
the house is the leader among those who
have curly hair?
That Mrs. o. H. P. Belmont is fol-
lowed by all the bonds on this side Of
the ocean?
Early this year Mrs. William Astor's
Lair-dresser sent for three OF us TO con-
suit with her Mrs. Astor had decreed
that there should be no jeweled pins IN
her hair this year, and what should be
done. We set to work and made puffs
and loops. and gradually worked cut
the plan of dressing the hair without
jewels.
Mrs. Belmont has always worn her
abundant hair dressed upon the back
of her head. But she, too, has fallen
in love with the simple styles, and so
her blond hair is rippled on top and
simply twisted upon the crown OF her
head.
Remember, if you tell people about
beautiful summer heads, you must be-
sure 10 say that hair is not made into
figures upon the back Of the head nor
deliberately spread over in bralds.
Neither is it looped high in puifs and
twists. II is all done in simple designs
There are loose braids. snug twists and
rolled up coiffures like little wheels, but
an is done in a visible way. Young
Mrs. Astor braids her hair but she does
in in the nape OF the neck.
Front hair goes back from the race
IF IL must fall forward, it is done in a
verv careless, simple way that looks ac-
cfdental But take my word for 1t, no
woman can arrange her own hair TINS
summer. even plain, like Mrs. Cleveland:
That lady herself has TO have a mad

For sad. sweet faces there Is only one

is the parted and braided style. The

then the hair is braided low in the back

A HOME IN THE COUNTRY

1t takes a good deal to make a good
home. 1t needs something even be-
sides father and mother, and an open
fire, and the cat on the hearth. The
first element in the home is the house
itself, which needs to be distinctly diff
ferent from any other house in sight.
Then there needs to be some land
around a house before it can be real
honey" 1t gives play for the
eyes as well as for the feet. A wide
range of woods will do more for a child
in a week than yellow bricks and dirty
paving will do for him in a year or
ever do for him. It is a great thing
for a child to grow up within earshot
of a babbling brook. There is a kind
of musicalness of spirit that will be-
come his in that way that he will never
be able to acquire from a piano teacher
or a fiddling master. This wide range
of prospect will also companion him
with the bright and the more earnest
moods of the great mother earth on
whose bosom he is being nurished. He
will have opportunity TO see the days
brighten in the east in the morning,
and his soul will unconsciously absorb
some of the glory of the setting sun.
Children in the city hardly yer see the
sun come up and go down. 1t simply
grows light about the time they have
to get up, and grows dark a dozen or
so hours later. Toe child in the country
there is likewise opportunity for him

THE FIRST USE OF TEA.

By whom or when the use Of tea for
drinking purposes was first discovered
is lost in antiquity. 1t Is spoken Of as
a famous herb in Chinese literature as
far back as 1000 years B. G., at which
time its cultivation and classification
was almost as thorough and complete
as it is to day. Ole of the ancient
legends says that it's virtues were &C
cidentally learned by King Shen Nung
She, the Chinese monarch who is also
known as The Divine Husbandman,"
whom the record says furnished forty
centuries ago. He was engaged in boil
ing water over a fire made of the
branches of the tea plant, and careless
ly allowed some Of the leaves to fall in
to the pot. The liquid which he ex-
pected to come from the vessel simply
as sterilized water was miraculOusly
converted into an elixer of life by the
accidental addition of the tea leaves.
Soon after it became highly esteemed
in all the oriental cities, and was used
as a royal gift from the Chinese mon,
archs to the potentates of Southern
and Western Asia. This same King
Shen Nung She not only earned the
title of respect by whichhe was known
through the discovery of the virtues
of tea, but because of being the first
to teach his people how to make and
use plOWs and many other implements
of husbandry.-St. Louis Republic.
