ribbons can be affixed through eyelets
in such a way that the hair can be
woven in the usual manner about the
two tines, as is done with large wave
pin, and then the pin can be with
drawn, leaving the hair woven on
ribbon, the ends of which can then be
tied in a coquettish little bowknot
producing a charming effect.

THE THREE SILVER COMMISSIONERS.
Moreton Frewen Believes Each COun-
try Should Act for Itself.

Washington, April 1.-THE naming OF
the three commissioners by President
Mckinley unoer the act of the last con-
gress to promote pimetallism has been the
subject of considerable discussion about
the capitol. Almost without exception
the selections were commended.
Opposition to the scheme for interna-
tional bimetallism has developed from an
unexpected source. Moreton Frewen OF
England, who has given a great deal OF
attention to the subject, and who has
visited this country several times in the
interest of silver, is now opposing an in
ternational agreement, and declared that
the money question is one which each
nation must settle for itself. Frewen
will oppose an agreement, and use his
influence against the new commission
when 1t goes abroad.
In the United States Senate Wolcott
anticipates little opposition to bimetal-
lism. What opposition Senator Wolcott
says there is, comes from the German
bankers of New York, who are already
fighting bimetallism, and whose opposi-
ton the commission will meet when 1t
goes to Europe.

Where Daughters Dress Alike.


In Yucatan, Central America, sisters
dress precisely alike, even to the tying
of bow, the turn of a button or the
flower in the hair. In the tropics large
families are the rule, and any day you
may see in that country girls in groups
of from three to a bakers dozen who
belong to the same family, as their
clothes will show. 1t is thus easy to
distinguish the members of a family
anywhere, and not infrequently sisters
are called by their favorite flower or
color. In Anam men and women wear
their hair in the same way and dress al
most alike. Earrings and finger rings
are worn by women only. Lapp men
and women dress alike. The men and
women of the Cree tribe of Indians
dress alike, but can be distinguished by
the ornamentation of their leggings,
that of the men being vertical and that
of the women horizontal.

Gray Locks Fashionable.

New York has many girls who,
though under II years of age, have
taken up the fad for gray hair, the idea
being to appear very intellectual and
thoughtful. 1t is managed by leaving a
lock of ones natural hair at a wig
makers, with instructions to somewhat
match it by shades of gray hair, not al
first too far removed from the original
color. A toupee affair is purchased to
be worn a Ia false bangs. The gray
hairs are carefully intertwined with
the dark locks, and one is perfectly
'up-tO-date."

Suicide Mt Chicago.

Chicago, April I'D. Cameron, who
said he was the son of wealthy mine
owner and Spectator of San Francisco,
committed suicide in a cheap hotel by
shooting himself through the head From
the little he said at the hotel and pawn
shops, it is inferred his wife left him sew
eral months ago and came TO Chicago,
and his object in coming 10 this city was
to locate her. He evidently failed to do
so, and this, coupled with his penniless
condition, is supposed to have driven
him to suicide
