hook depending from the end of the boom
as it swung over the bank and attach it to
tho crate to be sent back into the pit
Standing upon the very edge he reached
out to catch the hook which dangled near
him. 1t was winter, and no wore thick
buckskin gloves The hook slipped from

Tho swing of the great boom took him
OIL his feet in an instant and carried him
out into giddy space, with his life depend

weight was hung on that button, and there
was clear rs feet of space between him
and the floor Of rock below. The moments
that passed before tho boom could be
swung back over the bank seemed like
hours To him, but he got there at last safe
and sound. He explained that he did not
dare move his hand in tho glove to at

for fear the change of position would loosen

THE HAIR AND SCALP.

Some Practical Information Cleaned While
Having tho Head Shampooed.
"Wo are never too old to learn" is cor
tainly truo in many cases, aud I made
some rather startling discoveries regard
ing this important subject and found that
many common uses had become general
abuses. For example,, tho old rule of thor
oughly brushing the hair before retiring
each night docs strengthen tho roots, and
while it is good rule for some it is bad
rule for others. 1t certainly darkens all
hair materially-due, of course to, the fact
that tho natural oil is brought out; there
fore light haired women SO anxious to re-
main blond should surely avoid it. Per
sons with dark hair, especially If why,
should part 1t through the middle brush
the one half Mt n time carefully and evenly
SO rs not to tear It, Your brush Is largely
responsible for this, however; SO use a
long bristle, not too closely strung to-
gether. The French arc undoubtedly high
authority on this much abused subject,
and NJ. Tonsorial insists that the simplest
is always tho best, and auburn blond or
chestnut hair for washing needs nothing
beyond n weak borax water, n teaspoonful
to Il pint of warm water Remember, not
IL handful, for then IL becomes injurious,
and, like the good doctrine of homeopathy,
you find what cures will kill If discretion
is left out.
Once n month SINCE tho ends of your
hair. Most people cut tho ends, but this
is bad-it destroys the nourishment and
life. Singing drives the fluid back to tho
roots. This is IA custom said to havo had
its origin among women of the West In
dies, and is probably true, for they are
noted for their beautiful hair.
Massage the scalp occasionally, 1t is so
beneficial. 1t stimulates circulation, it
prevents the hair falling out and is espe-
cially good when small quantity of vase
line is used, but rub it in carefully and
thoroughly or it leaves your hair strcaked
and striped on the outside, and no benefit
is derived to tho scalp and roots, for which
it is intended The old adage of removing
gray hair is an excellent one, ITO tho
funeral of each gray hair pulled como 20
mourners, and soon you find the dead
fluid diffusing itself rapidly among healthy
roots and grayness follows quickly.
The abominable practice of using hot
irons TO the hnir is responsible for much of
the dead, ugly, colorless fringe that soon
becomes Disagreement to many an other
wise pretty faco. Use cold water and pa
per, or curling pads-anythingr rather than
heated tongs. 1t was an old saying and n
true one, "Woman's hair is her browning
glory" Why not preserve it as long rs
possible? Now, all these points 1 gained
from my loquacious hnirdresser while I sat
in her high chair with bibbed apron tied
under my chin, and what a delightful nap
might have taken during my massage
and shampoo had been less interested in
her subject !-Philadelphia Times.

EATING EGGS.
How m Englishman Would Tell Nam.
Nationnlity Thereby.

A mans nationality is betrayed to the
thoughtful observer by the manner in
which he cats his breakfast eggs The
Englishman uses y dainty little cup into
which the eggs slide deeply. Tho shell
must be Clipped with the spoon, and its
fragments removed with tho same utcnsil
The Englishman next lifts tho top por-
ton of the white, or cap. Then tho condi-
ments are mixed on the plate into neat
little gray heap, and the contents of tho
egg are scoopcd leisurcly out, due care
being taken 10 get about half and half of
white and yolk on tho spoon at tho same
time, fresh little dab of tho mixed pep
per and salt being given TO each spoonful
of egg.
In such fashion, with his bread and
butter, narmnlndc. English breakfast tea
and paper proppcd against the caster, tho
Briton makes meal which, to him, is the
perfection of light morning rcfrcshment.
The Frcnchman also uses the small egg
cup. The egg is soft boiled and when tho
she'll Is opened the Frcnchman puts in his
salt and pepper and butter and stirs them
thoroughly with the contents until every
part has been well mixed Then no breaks
his bread into small, narrow pieces, dips
each piece into the egg and eats the result
This he continues to do until tho egg is
nearly empty, when no takes 1T out OF the
cup and drinks the remainder
The German breaks his oggs-soft boiled
into large egg cup and spoons them up
like soup. Tho Italians cook eggs by plac-
ing them in n vessel filled with cold water
which is allowed to slowly como to boil
When tho water hollis, the eggs arc cooked
and, according to the Italians theirs is
tho only method by which tho true edible
consistency of tho white and yolk can be
secured.
When brought 10 table II is generally
the Italians pleasure to brcnl. tho eggs on
plato and sop them IN with good white
bread.
When man enters n restaurant and
orders hard boiled eggs, which no cuts in
two, then scoops the contents into glass,
there to be chopped up with butter pep
per and salt, his nationality is assured.
He is an American.-London Standard.
