GREEKS CLEAR OUT OF HEART
Not Even Prince Consts0tines's Fakes Can
Cheer Them Any More.

Cheer Them Any More.
London, May 19.-1 a. m.-London is
still without accounts of the battle Of
Domokos from the Turkish side. but it
is evident that the Greek defeat was
complete and decisive. An italian Off
Ger with the Greeks puts their killed and
wounded at 1000, but probably this is
much exaggerated, as the Greek posi-
tons were we'll protected. and the re-
trea. began as soon as they became IN
tenabie.
Il is believed that Edhem Pasha will
insist upon the surrender to him Of the
passes over the Otherys range before he
consents TO an armistice, but. save for
a small force of Turkish cavalry follow
ing the retreating Greeks at distance
OF 1000 yards. the Turks have not at
tempted TO attack the Greek rearguard.
The war is virtually ended. The
crown prince headed the retreat. and his
headquarters are now established close
to Devenfurka pass, very narrow
gorge through the Otherys range, about
i20 miles from Lamia.
The greatest depression exists al Attn
ems. There is a complete collapse OF the
high hopes raised by the optimistic dis
patches OF Constantine, but as yet there
are no disorders. While the battle was

deavorsd to gel al the exact position and
the number Of casualties. but Corstan-
tine sent only evasive replies. Very fee

day. The Athenians are completely dis

veying the supplies to the potts Of Gu
ba and also Of enabling the Americans
who desire voluntarily TO return To this
country TO be brought back with little
additional expense.
There was a suggestion that Consul
General Lee be allowed 10 draw on the
fund and buy supplies in Havana, but
as prices there are very high now it is
not probable that this will be done, eX-
cept perhaps to a very limited extent.
It is stated on the authority of a cab
net officer that there is no necessity Of
sending a warship with the supplies and
that nothing Of the sort is contemplate

CHARACTER TOLD BY HAIR.
You Can't Get Away from the Search
Light of Investigation.

1t Is pretty hard to conceal ones true
character nowadays. A new fad is hair
reading, and this is said to give us
away" in an unpleasantly accurate
manner. The new science Is not fully
developed yet, but it's devotees have
already discovered many interesting
facts and are constantly searching
for more.
Fine hair is said to denote gentle
birth, and the amount of care the hair
shows will determine the mode of lie
1t is also claimed that the closer the
ends Of the hair cling together, that
Is naturally, without artificial force,
the greater Is the intellectually the
owner possesses. A tendency to curl
denotes inherent grace and O poetic ma
ture. Straight hair is the sign OF
firm, positive and practical disposition
Such bad qualities as treachery and
jealousy are generally found in people
with black, lustreless hair. The lighter
the hair the more sensitive and
''touchy" the owner generally Is. Red
hair is sign of honesty and cleverness.
Nothing whatever is said about freaks
of temper as an accompaniment to red
hair. 1t may, therefore, be safe to con-
clude that another popular idea has
been dissolved by the searchlight of
science and investigation.

EGGS OF COMMERCE,
The Big Business Done in the Inter-
national Trading in Them.

There is a standard joke in the var
iety theatres, so often told that it has
come to have familiar sound to the
ears Of patrons, concerning a remark
| made by city man who heard that
eggs had gone down to a cent apiece.
II don't see how the hens can do 1t for
the price" Notwithstanding the re-
duction in the price of eggs, and the
| almost unlimited supply of them in all
countries that have developed their
| agricultural resources, it is a fact that
the trade in eggs, their expectation
from one country to another has be-
come a large item of international
commerce, as some recent figures
| show. The case of Denmark is in
point. Denmark's trade in eggs with
| foreign countries, chiefly with Eng
land and Scotland, has grown enor-
mously. Twenty years ago the annual
Danish export Of eggs was 600, 900; now
it is reckoned at 10000, 900. In the same
period the importation of eggs into
England has increased tenfold, but
only part of the whole number come
from Denmark, the two other exporting
countries from which England draws
its supplies being Holland and France.
France exports to other countries 600,
100000 eggs in a year and Italy exports
| 500, 900 eggs in a year, chiefly to Aus
tria and Germany.
The dairymen of the United States
depend chiefly on the enormous home
market, and they have rivals in the
export of American eggs in the Can
adams, Canada ranking next to France
and Italy and ahead of Denmark and
Holland as an exporting country
Canada exports to other countries 300,-
100000 eggs in a year. For the fiscal
year of 1895 the Treasury figures give
as the total exports of American eggs
to foreign countries $4,000 dozen, which
is equivalent to 1,S1200O eggs. In the
fiscal year of 1896, however, the tota
expectations of American eggs in
creased to $4,000 dozen, or 1885,
| eggs, a little more than twice as much
| The export figures for this year indi'
cate a still further increase. and 8

THE LITTLE BOYS PRAYER.

The Chicago Chronicle tells of a re-
ligious little boy of Chicago, who never
goes to sleep without praying that his
soul may be kept through the long
watches of the night. The other even
ing, however, he became little mixed
about bedtime. When in his snow
white gown, he made a movement to-
ward the little cot, but was remind
ed that he had forgotten to say his
evening prayer. He quickly knelt at
his mothers side and, laying his small
head upon his folded hands, began:
"Now lay me down to sleep,
] pray the Lord my soul to keep"
But there his drowsiness became too
much for him. His curly head went
down with bump against his mothers
knee, and she, hoping to help him out
softly suggested: "If." He made an
other effort, and as his mother prompt
ed him the second time he frightened
up and finished:
'If he hollors let him go,
Enc, meni, mine no."

Care oftne Eyebrows.

Smooth, glossy eyebrows, and long
dark lashes add wonderfully to the
beauty of face, and women should
care for these necessary adjuncts to
their good looks. If the brows are thin
and Informed, rub pure grease or vase
line on them at night, and battle them
carefully in cold water in the morning.
Never brush or rub the brows the
wrong way. Brush them daily with a
small eyebrow brush that you can get
at any good drug store, but do not get
into the habit of rubbing" it will
roughen and break the hairs.

toned to call, somewhat vaguely, the
near future.
1t is a somewhat curious fact that the
weight of eggs is materially larger in
Northern than in Southern climates.
Canadian eggs, for instance, are heav-
Ter than those shipped from the United
States, and eggs in the Northern states
of this country are heavier than those
from the South.
