There are many little things which
one can do to enhance her personal
charms, and one of these Is to keep the
hands in irreproachable condition. 1t
seems strange that ones attention
needs to be called to so important a
detail of the toilet. A glance at the
hands one meets every day, however,
will show that such a suggestion is op-
perfume. Another thing Take pains
with your hair, that crowning glory Of
womanhood, II was meant for better
things than being punched up in a wad
and hairpins stuck in 1t indiscrimi-
nately. No matter how poor wo-
mans gown, II her hair is well dressed
she will surely look her best To dress
the hair properly requires time, but
the time should be given TO it even If
1t means getting up an hour earlier

The wheel has proved a perfect boon
to the girls who have passed winter
in the whirl of dances, parties and
other dissipations, with their attendant
late hours. There is nothing that will
restore the fresh bloom of health to
yellow complexion and the luster to the
eyes of the society girls, as the fresh
air exercise on the cycle. The wheel is
perfect rejuvenator, and during the
spring season many a girl has taken
systematic wheeling exercise with the
result that she is the gamer in health
and good looks.

IL there Is any valid excuse, cause, or
occasion for the average ''strike." for the
love OF heaven let us have 1t. Strikes are
ordered" Who in-the land has power
to order strike? Dana-he of the New
York Sun, says Americans never strike.
Well, who is 1t that has the power to tell
my neighbor that he must stop work, run
the streets Idly. loaf around the corner
grocery and live on the toll of others? The
organizers and officers of our labor organi-
cations, eh? Well, who are these men who
WELD such power as no other man or set
of men ever dare attempt In this land Of
the free9 Who are theya Let us trace
them back. They are not Americans we
find, SO Dana must be correct. Next we
find that they are illiterate, not educated
and very probably also that they come from
among the pauper laborers of Europe, and
further, that they are unprincipled. and
lawless, perhaps anarchists.
So these are the mef,-heaven save the
mark-who hold the labor element In their
cursed grasp, do they? Surprising 1t was
possible for manufacturers and the like to
throttle one of their ilk In like manner. l
say supposing 1t were possible, how long DO
you suppose our government would iastY
1t wouldn't stand minute. Why? Be-
cause there has got to be some men to
be obeyed as we'll as to obey. Some one In
whom we can trust our interests as well as
their own.
Our land isn't peopled with scoundrels!
No, no, the vast majority Of people are hon.
est, law abiding and Industrious, and he
who hangs his hopes for happiness on the
lawlessness of the masses will drop 1t in the
mire, and make himself miserable and
those around him.
Men of wealth are not banded villains,
thieves and cut throats, nor yet idle excres-
cence of the face of society. No, indeed
The millionaire, as a rule. works harder
and longer hours than the miner, and what
does he get more? He gets enough to eat,
drink and wear, and that the miner gets If
he works. Yes, but the one gets great
deal higher wages! Yes, but what does or
can he do with it save to increase his bur
dens MOI Work is the lot of all, and 'by
the sweat of thy brow shalt thou earn thy
bread" Yet it is so hard to make ourselves
believe but that most people have an easier
time of it than we. So hard, but 1t isn't so.
Every man, except he is disabled, ought to
work, live economically, dress prudently,
and avoid useless expenditures. For / tell
you that the cause of strikes and hard times
lies in one of three things, tobacco, drink,
or dreSs A man can chew and drink him
self into pauperism, or an expensive and
extravagant wife and daughters may keep
his nasal organ on the grind-stone, but aside
from these causes there is no reason why q

The gold democrats of the country are
attracting a good deal of attention by the
vigorous work which they are doing in
opposition to that wing of the party which
went off on the free-silver tangent In
view of the recent tumbles which silver
has taken, and the growing disfavor with
which the 16 to 1 proposition is viewed
alike by all political leaders. it would seem
as though the gold men of the party would
soon be in a position to dictate terms to the
silverities.

No democratic orator in Ohio, Maryland,

considered that the democratic party and
platform only one year ago discussed moth
ing but silver, the rapidity of the change
which has come over the public mind under
the prosperity following the enactment of
the protective tariff is phenomenal, and

THE MARINE BAND.

The appointment of A. a. Zimmermau
leader of the Naval Academy Band, at
Annapolis, to succeed Professor Fan
ciulli as arector of the Marine Band'
has received the entire approval of the
naval service.
The Navy Department does not ap
point the leader of the Marine Baud,
but the details some member OF the or
ganization to act as director. Zimmer-
map. after enlistiug, is subject TO the or
ders OF the MarineCorps. The new leader
will assume charge next Monday, but
will not accompany the band to the
Chicago horse show.
In order to escape further criticism al
the hands OF the labor organizations,
the Navy Department has laid down
the rale that hereafter the Marine Bsno
shall not be allowed to play in any city
where they might be regarded as COM
peting with civilian bands. Ali of the
bandsmen have been enlisted with an
understanding that they might exc out
their slender pay as enlisted marines
by playing outside engagements. Most
OF them are men of family who could
not subsist upon marines pay, so that
this order is expected to result in the
refusal OF most OF the bandsmen to re-
enlist, and in the case ofthe more noted
musicians, in their buying their dis
charges, so that the future of the band
is in doubt.

ADVANCE IN APPLEs.-There has
been considerable advance in the
price of apples, and the grow
ers of Albemarle and Nelson counties,
who did not sell their fruit, are reaping
a rich reward. One of the most recent
returns for apples shipped TO Liverpool
was that received by Messrs. J. G.
Martin & Bro, of Covesville, few
days since, and covered a shipment OF
several carloads of l67 barrels each OF
fruit fsuch an inferior grade, that the
firm hesiteted to brand them Abe.
marie pippins, and afterward decided
to put an additional brand so as to
better designate their quality. These
apples netted the shippers at Covesville
depot s.. 81 per barrel.
