THE PRIESTS OF PALLAS.
Grand and Imposing Parade, Tues
day, October 9Th
sented - Hans Andersen'e Fairy
Tales" Most Brilliantly n
Illustrated

The Priests of Pallas will celebrate their
eleventh anniversary Tuesday, OctoberNth,
in most elaborate and pleasing manner.
Illustrating in an elegant and glittering SCI
ries of (2O) beautiful tableaux, Hans An
dersen's Fairy Tales
The Parades of the Priests of Pallas have
attained for Kansas City worldwide celeb
rity. In no other city have the festivities
that grace this season of the year been or
ganized on a scale of such thorough COM
pletenesS and gorgeous magnificence-
1t has been reserved for the Priests OF
Pallas 20 mold the festivities of the season
into grand and comprehensive system,
and to present to the enjoyment of visit
ors, without fee reward, public specta-
cles and pageants as brilliant and beautiful
as the genius and skill of man and the Law
ish expenditure of money can produce.
Those who have not actually witnessed
the parade of the Priests of Pallas cannot
imagine its magnitude and beauty All
that grace of form, brilliance of coloring,
dazzling splendor of lights, and the force of
quantity and numbers, combined with rar-
est art, can produce in the way of scenic
display is attained
The management announce that beyond
a doubt this parade will far excel and out
shine any previous display.
All railroads have made very low rates
for this occasion, good October Sd to 10th
inclusive, and Kansas City extends a hearty
welcome to all.

A HARVEST OF HUMAN HAIR.
Millions of Pounds Every Year Get
Tangled Up I'm Commerce.

Tangled Up I'm Commerce.
Perhaps there is no staple article
about which less is known by the aver
age person than human hair as an ar
ticle of commerce. It will doubtless
surprise many when it is stated that the
dealers in human hair goods do not
depend on chance clippings here and
there, but that there is regular hair
harvest that can always be relied upon.
1t is estimated that over 100000
pounds of human hair are used annual
ly in the civilized world for adjoining
the heads of women In New York
city alone over four tons of this class
of goods are imported yearly.
Not little of the hair used in this
country" said New York dealer to the
writer, "comes from the heads of Amer
lean women and is fully fine in shade
and texture as the imported article.
We had big harvest during the craze
that the fair sex had not long ago fo-
having their hair cut short. Many
thousands of women who then had their
locks sheared have since bitterly re-
GREETED it, as in many instances their
hair has grown so slowly that they have
been compelled to wear a wig or 4
switch since the fashion changed. After
the majority of women reach the age
of 80 the hair seems to particularly lose
its vigor, and if cut it will not grow
long again.
"Two-thirds of the ladies NOWADAYS
use false hair more or less. The decree
of fashion, or the desire to conceal de-
