THE TOP HAT.

Living as we do in times when so
much attention is directed to rational
and hygienic dress, it seems curious
that the top hat still survives, and has
not gone the way of the crinoline and
powdered wigs. But in spite of its
admitted liability to be blown off by
sudden gusts of wind or crushed by
contact with some unseen projection,
it retains with much firmnsss its long
established position. 1t is true that
during the height Of summer few at
tempts were made to replace this stutfy
headgear by the lighter and airier
straw hat, but the attempts fell rather
fiat, and exposed the wearers to more
attention than was altogether pleasant.
For so many years has the appropri-
ate costume for professional men been
narrowed down to the black coat and
top hat that any variation from this
oftends the eye. 1t is entirely mat
ter of association This can he shown
by reference to the undoubtedly bad eff
feet of frock coat and cap for civilians.
Yet, strange to say, if the scene be
changed and the same combination APP
piled to the uniforms of naval officers,
no sense of incongruity remains 1t
NAV or may not he the tasteful orna-
mentation of the latter's get-up that
serves to please the eye; suffice it to say
that no smarter or more gentlemanlv-
looking object can be named than we'll
eroomed naval officer.
The top hat, like most other things,
was not evolved in sudden moment
of inspiration. 1t is the product of
many centuries tollies and fashions,
and unless we are much mistaken, will
for some tire outlve the vituperation
Of those who wear them. Even so far
back rs the twelfth century, the beaver
was worn by the "nobelS of the lande
NETT at Clarendon Felt hats were
known long before that, for to st.
Clement are we indebted for their dis
covely-a debt which is annually recog
nized in festivals still held in his honor
on November %. The topper is
probably traceable not to his agency,
but to the subsequent dealings with

COSTLY GAME HEADS.

The head of the musk OK is the most
costly of mounted game heads and next
is the head of the bison, or buffalo.
Fine buffalo heads, well mounted, bring
from $3.50 to $500. A head at $500,
SAYS the New York Sun, would be one
exceptionally large and choice; and a
fine head can be bought for $3.50. FIT
teen years ago well-mounted buffalo
heads could be bought for from $50 to
500 The increase in price is accoun-
ted for by the growing scarcity of buf-
falo, which has now practically disap-
peared from the United States. The
wood bisions of the Great Slave lake
region of British North America, which
inhabit woodland or mountain districts,
are rather more numerous than the
prairie buffaloes of this country, but
their numbers are limited and decreas-
ing. The wood bison is not so large
as the prairie buffalo, and its hair is
straighter and black.
Musk OK heads are held at $500 and
upward. One musk OK head owned
by taxidermist in this city is valued
at $3.50.

AN IMPORTANT OFFICE.

To properly fill its office and flnc-
tions, it is important that the blood be
pure. When it is in such condition,
the body is almost certain to be healthy.
A complaint at this time is catarrh in
some OF its various forms. A slight
cold develops the disease in the head.
Droppings of corruption passing into
the lungs bring on consumption. The
only way to cure this disease is to pu-
rify the blood. The most obstinate
cases of catarrh yield to the medicinal
powers of Hoods Sarsaparilla as if by
magic, simply because it reaches the
seat of the disease, and by purifying
and vitalizing the blood, removes the
cause. Not only does Hoods Sarsa-
parilla do this but it gives renewed
vigor to the whole system, making it
possible for good health to reign su-
preme.

MfS. UrunuN. socrates $ independence
of conventionalitv was balanced by his
reverence for abstract principles; but
Percles taught Alcibiades that alb
stractions are not to be regarded in
practical politics. PericIes steered his
course by the old-f,shioned patriotism
that commanded him to set his coun-
try above everything: but Alcibiades
cared nothing for such a command, un-
less he knew why he chould obey it;
and the reason could be nothing but
one of those distractions which Peri
cles himself had banished. Thus the
influence of two of the steadiest men in
Athens combined in Alcibiades to form
an explosive mixture that destroyed
the State.
For there is no doubt whatever that,
if Alcbiades had not stood in the way,
Athens would have won the war.
Athcnian instead of Spartan influence
would have predominated through the
mkt century Of Greek history. This
is to say that the conditions out of
which the Macedonian power grew up
would not have been the same; and
this again means that the career oil
Alexander the Great would probably
never have been run.
If Pericles had encouraged Alcibia-
dess speculations on the just basis of
governmental powers, Alcibiades would
doubtless have grown up a reformer,-
one of those who want to give the so
cial structure an altogether new foun-
dation. His times were more hospi-
table to such people than any that
have been known before or since
Plato was offered the chance to put in
practise his fancy ola perfect common
wealth, based on an elaborately thor
ough scheme Of tyranny; he failed to
carry it out only because he took too
long time for preparation before be-
ginning work. Alcibiades, the ener-
getic man of affairs, with all the advan-
tages a politician can use, had planned
an ideal commonwealth, he would GER
tainly have succeeded in starting it;
and his notable executive ability would
have given it the best chance for prac
tical success that such scheme ever
had. But, while in Platos republic
the fundamental principle was the sup
preston of all individuality, with Alci-
blades it would have been the extreme
of liberty. If he had succeeded, We
should have been long way farther
than we are toward the solution of our
social problems; if he had failed, we
should at least have had brilliant his
torical experiment, whose lessons would
be worth spending the life of a genius
to attain.
AS it is, we have nothing but the
story of a Greek Aaron Burr, who did
no good to himself, his friends, or any
body else. Th" only use We can make
of his life is to learn from it what comes
Of telling a young man that he must
give up his fine ideas of justice when
he enters practical fe.-Home Jo"rmnl
