EASIER COIFFURES.

Among other interesting and useful toys which have carefully been packed away curling tongs come first and fore most. Nor does this mean that any equally effectual substitute is to be em- ployed in their place. All curls, waves and frizzes, save those which have been the cheerful and voluntary gift of na- ture, are sternly tabooed. There is an absolute return to naturalness in the matter of hairdressing, for seldom has Lent so shown it's influence in even the most minor details of a woman's toilet.

Machinery and Men.

Since 1916 machinery has ON an enor-
nous scale supplanted manual labor.
The knotter of the self binder completes
a round Of mechanism which threatens
to make the farmer q man of sedentary
habits. If the cotton boil remains un
picked by machinery it may be because
the botanist must first produce a plant
maturing all at once instead of at sue
cessive periods. In superseding the hand
the inventor often succeeds by feats far
removed from imitation. Merganthaler
replaces the typesetter by arranging
matrices from which lines of solid metal
are cast. Lanston's machine for sim
liar purpose exemplifies a noteworthy
aim of nvention-initiation by means
involving the slightest exertion possible.
An operator at keyboard symbolizes a
manuscript as a series Of punctures in a
strip of paper, the pinholes free pulses
of compressed air which actuate the
machine. Initiation, however, reaches
its final form i'm electrical devices. A
clerk i'm New York pcrforates successive
messages on paper ribbon, which,
driven between electrical springs, trans
mits 5000 words minute to Philadel-
phia. Intelligence in such a feat as this
is given only that part of task for
which it is indispensable. All else is
committed to mechanism actuated at a
speed and with force denied to nerve
,r muscle. Self Culture.

How Lover Worked.

Samuel Lovers daughter, Mrs. Fan.
ny Schmid, writes her recollections of
1.-The Author of Rory OMore'" for
The Century. Mrs. Schmid says: His
industry was such that in the busiest
years of his life he did not even grant
himself time to look at the daily papers,
or to read any new book that was much
talked of. His wife always read the pa
pers and the new books for him, giving
him in conversation resume Of the
news of the day and the contents of the
books, so that he was always we'll in
formed of everything that was going on.
If anything exceedingly important was
on hand in the political world, or if any
part of book was particularly interest
ing or well written, these she would
read to him while he was painting.
Many artists are as dumb as fishes at
their oasels, but he could converse
charmingly while he was painting,
which was particularly pleasant quail
ity for his sitters. In painting or in
writing he worked indefatigably, and
seemed to be independent Of the
"moods" to which many artists appear
to be victims. As to his songs, he used
to say himself that he never wrote a
song i'll his life except when he couldn' t
help it.
The songs used TO "come TO him, "
generally words and melody simulta-
neously, so that he had only to write
them down. Frequently the idea of a
song would como when he was occupied
with something quite different as, for
instance, while painting. He would
then leave his easel, write down the
idea and return to his work. Afterward
he would return to the idea and work

WHAT FOGS ARE MADE OF.
Gebula Pulve sea and Their Airy Relatives
of IDwn and Country.

Nebula Pulvesea and Their Airy Relatives
of rDwn and Country.
A convenient though not strictly sci
entific classification Of fog types is sea
or coast fog, valley or hill fog and town
or dust fog. The last named has been
given the euphonic designation nebula
pulverea 1t is an artificial rather than
Il natural condition The Rev. Clement
Ley, who gave large portion of his life
20 cloud study, says, in his book.
~'ClOudland, that in some parts of the
globe nebula pulverea is occasionally so
thick as to obscure almost totally the
sunlight, and in Abyssinia has led tc
the tradition that the plague or dark
ness in Egypt was in reality an unusual
dust fog. The amount Of moisture varies
40 much in different fogs that the terms
dry" and wet are used, the scien-
fific name Of the latter being nebula
Etillans In wet fog the particles ere
apt to be larger than in dry fog. A still
further division, due, we believe, to
Robert II. Scott, is anticyclonic fog, or
fog in which no rain falls, while the
temperature, generally low in the morn
ing, continues 10 rise during the day,
and cyclonic fog, in which rain does
occur, while the temperature remains
about temporary.
Before leaving these town fogs We
may notice the part played by them i'll
affecting the health Of the community
Mr.. Scott has given figures showing the
mortality from diseases of the respira-
tory system fol some Of the more memo
Eable fogs of London. We have roop
for but one of the many periods be gives.
From Jan. 90 TO Feb. 6, 1880, London
experienced eight days Of fog. The aver
age temperature at s o'clock i'll the
morning was 20 degrees f. The total
death rate was 4S.l per /, 900, rate
unequaled since the last cholera cpl
Gemic, and there were no less than l. 557
deaths from diseases Of the respiratory
organs.
3t IS not always an easy matter to
trace direct relationship even where the
statistics are carefully gathered, but
Shere can be little doubt that these town
logs are unwholesomc. Indirectly they
affect the health of the community i'll a
way few would imagine. A town fog is
an excellent trap for noxious gases, hold
sug them close to the ground. DIR. r.

from the ground, sewers, etc. On clear,
bright days, even if no wind is blowing,
abe law of diffusion of gases acts more
as2nctively and helps disperse the gases.

CRAWFlSHlNG.
How the Ugly but Toothsome Creatures
Are Caught.

How the Ugly nut tootneohc ~f~"e"f~"
Are Caught.
Mr.. A. Ulrich of Chicago, who once
lived in New Orleans and ia familiar
with the matter of which he speaks,
sends in the following very interesting
account of the way la which crawfish
are taken by the men who fish for them.
He says:
"Around New Orleans there are
swamps which are always being hunted
for crawfish, and yet the supply is UNI
limited. So numerous are they that one
cannot leave fish ON string IN the wa
ter, for they will tear the fish into
shreds.
"a small net about the size of but
terfly net, about ten cords, each two feet
long. and cents worth Of meat com
plete the outfit for one person.
SIN the swamp there are small islands
and long necks of land which intersect
one another in all directions and upon
which the catchers go.
"The start is usually made in the
early morning, when the sun does not
shine so fiercely and walking is much
easier
ARRIVING at their destination, they
cut their meat into small pieces about
two inches around. Each piece is now
attached TO one of the cords. After this
they are thrown into the water and the
other end of the cord is attached TO a
stick which is stuck into the ground so
that the crawfish cannot pull the meat
away. One usually waits few minutes,
and then when the cord is gently raised
the catcher will see about half dozen
crawfish with their pinchers stuck into
the meat, eating ravenously.
1.-THE net is now gently put into the
water directly under them, ard with a
sudden jerk they are landed, for as soon
as they strike the air they will let loose
of the meat
1.-The crawfish are of large species.
The writer has caught some measuring
10 inches from tip to tip. These are by
no means uncommon.
1.-THE average catch for three persons
is about an ordinary bucketful. The
meat when prepared right makes de-
licious delicacy. Forest and Stream.
