EYELASHES RENEWED.
ny TrnnspInntinE the Hair, II Is Said,
Unnttrnctive Eyes May BE
Made IrresistibIe.

| Transplanted eyelashes and eye
brows are the latest things in the way
of personal adornment. Only the brave
and rich can patronize the new method
at present, for besides being painful
and costly, it takes long time to ac-
,omplish it.
There is only one person in New York
who makes speciality of the process,
but in Paris and London, where the
idea originated, there are specialists
who make handsome living out of the
process of transplanting hair from the
head to the eyebrows or eyelashes. The
specialist works by putting in, not on,
the new eyelashes and brows wherever
they are absent or grown thin, and
so cunning is he in his work that not
even the closest scrutiny can detect
any difference.
BY means of the new process, it is
said, eyes which are at ordinary times
only passable become languishing in
their expression, while eyes which
were previously considered fine have
their beauty much enhanced.
This is the way new eyelashes are
put in: An ordinary fine needle is
threaded with a long hair, generally
taken from the head of the person to be
operated upon. The lower border of the
eyelid is then thoroughly cleaned, and
in order that the process may be as
painless as possible, rubbed with So
luton of cocaine. The operator then
by few skillful touches runs his
needle through the extreme edges of
the eyelid between the epidermis and
the lower border of the cartilage of
the tragus. The needle passes in and
out along the edge of the lid, leaving its
hair thread in loops of carefully gradu-
ated length.
When this has been done another
and another length of hair is sewed
through the lid until finally there are
dozen or more loops projecting. BY
this time the effect of the cocaine has
been lost and the operator is obliged
to desist and put off the further sew
ing of hair" for another sitting.
The next step in the process is cut
ting off and trimming the ends of the
loops, and the result is a fine, thick,
long set of eyelashes. 1t is the finish
ing touch, that is to come, that makes
them look like natures own. When
they are first cut they stick out in the
most singular fashion, giving the per-
son operated upon the most uncanpy
look. The operators next step is to
take curling tongs, made of silver and
no larger than knitting needles, and
to give them the curve which is essen
tial to perfect beauty. Then the eyes
are carefully bandaged and kept so un-
til the following day.
Most of the hairs that have been
take root and grow, but
n few of them fall out and have to be
attended to. For the first month it is
necessary to curl the new eyelashes
every day, but after that they become
properly assimilated, and it is not nee
essary to give them any further atten-
ton.
Eyebrows are doctored in the same
way, but there is not so much pain
associated with the process as in trans
planting eyelashes.-N. Y. Herald.

The Neck Chain Ls Gone.

Definitely the chain is gone. Too
great popularity killed it. In it's place
the bangle ventures to put forth, but
the result is in doubt, and by determin-
edly putting off their watches women
have ceased to make themselves the
slaves of time. In truth, never was so
little jewelry worn as in this summer
of grace, and the fancy for oriental pat
terms is as marked as ever. At night
in the coiffure very charming wreaths
of small, clear green enameled leaves,
ivy, myrtle, laurel, bay and grape foli-
age, fasten among puffs and braids, and
sometimes row of leaves forms the
top edging for tucking comb.

the Six Companies do not sell their hui
man cattle. They hire them out. They
receive stipulated sum for the work
of their hands, and they also receive
payment from each coolie FOR procur-
ing employment for him. The coolies
are therefore free; but to all intents
and purposes they are slaves. Never
theless, they look upon the Six Com
panies as public benefac- ors. They are
provided with employment, and have
their transportation paid for them,
which, of course, they have to pay back
The coolies are paid about $25 per
month. The Six Companies contract to
provide the board and lodging for their
coolies; and they charge enough to al
most absorb all of their earnings. Con-
sequently this trust" which deals in
human beings, simply permits the
coolies to live and make rich their bene-
factors (?) by their toll.
Now be it understood that the Six
Companies employ highbinders, just
as American corporations may do. You
must understand that highbinder is
simply an executive officer, or chief of
police or a sort of sheriff. The Six
Companies have no connection with any
of the secret societies which exist
among Cinnamon, but all secret socie-

blue silk braid.
The waist had blouse effect, front
and back, and was box plated, the front
plaits being overlaid with bands of
brilliantine like that which embellished
the skirt. The collar was high, finished
with a narrow linen ruching, and the
sleeves, which were full enough to al
low perfect freedom to the arms, were
plain, relying upon their neat finish for
their beauty.
With the woodland cycling suit a
short white sailor was worn with a
curled quill and band to match the suit.

FOR COUNTRY RIDING.
4 Smart OUTFIT of Black and white
Plaid for the Daring Wood
land Cyclienne.

The costume of this woodland cy-
clienne is worthy a paragraph in the
most conservative of fashion articles.
1t is specially adapted for long spins
through shady groves and also for
rough-and-tumble riding.
1t is developed in lightweight Scot
tish goods trimmed with bands of
bright silk poplin, which in their turn
are finished with narrow strips of
braid. The writer recalls one partic-
ular woodland cycling suit of royal
brown plaided with Prussian blue and
generous tracing of crimson.
The skirt was the ideal rainy-day
length, very flaring at the hem and
close-fitting about the hips. The full
ness was laid in plaits at the tbaclS.
Around the foot was plain band
trimming of white brilliantine headed

IN AN OLD GARDEN.

Come down to that old garden
OF every floweS we knew.
When out of gates of childhood
Th airs of morning blew,
And arching heaven was painted
In every drop of dew.
And you may have the lily
With all her virgin SHOWS,
And you may have the beauty
That bushes on the rose,
But will have the heart's-ease,
The dearest flower that blows!
Who will shall have the balsams
And store of hydromel,
The purple of the monk 's-hood
with poison in his spell;
Who will shall have sweet-william
And the canterbury-bell.
I love the breath OF rosemary,
The perfume of the stock.
The proud plumes of the fleur-de-lis
The silken hollyhock;
1 love the flaming poppy
And the sleepy four-o'clock.
But they say that when great angels
Fell plunging from Heavens frown,
A spirit looking after
Lost a blossom from her CROWN
1 know 1t was the heart's-ease
Came softly floating down.
Oh, bright the honeysuckle,
And sweet his tippling crew.
The blrd-wings of the columbine,
The larkspur blue as blue
But will take the heart's-ease
And all the rest take you!

Home Companion.

Cotton Hanging. Are U.efuI

For some time the special value of
cotton fabrics for country house sery-
ice as hangings and draperies has been
known. Their growing excellence in
manufacture, which has brought de-
sign and finish almost to perfection,
has promoted these fabrics to quite
general town house use. The fact that
moths pay no attention to them makes
them popular with housekeepers. 1t
would, perhaps, be surprise to one
who has not given the matter recent at
tentien to discover what excellent e4
fects can be produced in hangings, fur
n'ture coverings and even rugs that are
made of cotton.

GEMS POSSESS LIFE.
InclOsinE Them tn Their Cases and
Giving TasyR n Rest Adds
to Their Luster.

Real jewels, scientists now assert,
possess organic life. 1t has long heen
known that 0pals and pearls grow duh
when worn by invalids, and latterly
rubies and the turquoise are found to
share the same sensibility. Pearls are
more indicative of the condition of the
wearer than any other gem. Though
this delicate stone lives longer than q
flower, it seems to have a form of life,
which, like that of the flower, loses
color and brilliancy and actually does.
Nor is this property unfounded in rea-
son. Science has latterly learned much
concerning gems and their influence
in the propagation of health and dis
ease. Those invisible carnations which
surround the person wearing gems
penetrate the interstices of the jewel
and actually increase or decrease its
brilliancy. The inference is n true one
that rings and pins should be laid aside
by the invalid. Even in good health, it
is better to give them an occasional
rest. To inclose them in their cases and
put them away is to insure an access
of luster. Even clothing should be
treated to rest. 1t freshens up won
derfully the frock or wrap, to shake and
brush the garment and hang it in dark
closet.-Good housekeeping.

Six Companies, the strongest trust
in the world. OF course they shut out
of business many smaller dealers; but
that is one of the results of the law
of the survival of the fittest, and the
Chinese recognize that law spontane-
ously.
The headquarters of the Chinese Six
Companies are in Canton, and the
American headquarters are at San
Francisco; and the Six Companies have
representatives all over the world
wherever there is tn he found col
ony of 1000 or more Chinese people.
All orders and all transactions ulti-
mately go on record in the home Of
fees at Canton, China. There is where
the bulk Of the morey made goes, too.
Not only is this IA trust" which is
contrary to the modern ideas of our
people, but it is trust" organized for
dealing in human beings. The princi-
pal business of the Six Companies is
supplying coolie labor in large fields
of enterprise, such as building rail
road" mining and ordinary labor re-
quiril. no special skill or fitness for
peculiar employment. The Six Com
panies supply Chinese laborers for the
mines of srazil, Chilli, Ecuador, Bolivia
and oSher countries. They furnish la
borers for the guano deposits of Peru
and for the Peruvian inter beds. AT one
time there were 10000 Chinese coolie
laborers employed on-the Pacific rail
roads, and many of them are still en-
ployed on those roads, keeping them in
repair.
This traffic in human beings is not
called slavery or slave trade. because

THE SIX COMPANIES.
They Constitute the Most Powerful
Trust Ever Formed.
Functions of the Chinese Combine

Especial Washington Letter. ]

1t seldom happens to one of our people
to have an opportunity to converse with
an educated Chinaman, one who can use
the English language with facility
Therefore it was a treat for the writer
to recently spend an hour in conversa-
tion with a polished and cultured gen.
tleman of that race, who told many
new and interesting things about his
country and his people.
In reply to an inquiry concerning the
Six Companies and the "Highbinders'
he gave an elaborate description OF
them, which is herewith reproduced
i from memory. In a newspaper there
appeared dispatch concerning the
threat of one Chinaman against an
other, the threat of death, unless $500
should be paid to a 'highbinder." The
newspaper account gave no particulars,
and the average reader would suppose
that brigandage was carried on by
highbinders, and with the consent of
the people in the Chinese quarter.
Whenever any act of violence is
committed by Chinaman it is Gus
tomarv in this country to attribute it
TO highbinder, when, as n matter of
fact. highbinders are not guilty of any
injustice, and certainly are not re-
sponsible for brigandage or lawlessness
OF that character. But first let us un-
derstand the Six Companies: then we
can understand the highbinders better.
When you read in the newspapers po-
litical editorials denouncing trusts" ;"
and when you hear orators of all po-
lit;cal parties shouting themselves
hoarse and growing red in the face
and big in the neck with their patriotic
declamations, you may understand that
they are denouncing something older
than America, as a factor in the affairs
o. the world. Long before Columbus
secured the support which enabled him
to cross the ocean and discover this con-
tinent; and long before Eric the Red
sailed from Iceland to the coast of Mas
sachusetts, trusts" were in vogue in
China. This shows that there is moth
ing new under the sun.
The Six Companies constitute a
"trust," and powerful combination it
is, too. Just how old it is cannot be
stated, although, of course, the branch
in this country has been in existence
but limited number of years. But
trusts have existed in China from
time immemorial. Long before there
was any Fourth of July to celebrate
in this country the Chinese were max
ing gunpowder, and making firecracl-
ers, and the goods were disposed of by
a trust"
This Six Companies trust" was or
ganized by merchants for their own
betterment. 1t became necessary be-
cause competition was strong, and
ruinous to trade. There was one body
of merchants doing business in Hong
Kong, and there were five companies
doing business in Canton. They were
constantly cutting prices. and under
mining each other. until they all real
lied that ruin was before them; and so,
for self-protection and advancement,
they pooled their issues and formed the
