She Wasked Her Hair.

If you observed closely certain pref
ty bridesmaid at certain wedding on
a certain day last week, you may have
noticed that her hair under the fetching
hat had a strange look, an oddly di-
sheveled appearance, but don't believe
you ever guessed how narrowly that
bridal procession missed being one maid
short. The young woman we are speak
ing of has uncommonly pretty hair, and
in order that it might be fluffy and
silky and soft for the wedding she
washed it the day before. 1t is her GUS
tom to drop handful of borax into
the water with which she shampoos her
tresses, and on this occasion she drop.
ped in handful of soft, white powder
that proved to be not borax, but. horri-
bile dictu-powdered alum.
If you've seen the crystal baskets
your mother used to make by immersing
strings in alum water, you may have
some idea of how the hair looked, 1t
was like mass of spun glass threads,
and it broke off if you looked at it. A
hairdresser was sent for and vaseline
and sweet oil, and goodness only "knows
what else were called into use. The
bridesmaids hair was finally rescued
after fashion, but it wasn't thing of
beauty at the wedding and it will be
weeks before it is what it was before
the accident. Washington Post.

The Answer Was Easy.

When King Oscar was at Paris some
years ago, he was about seeing the
sights incognito. Among other places
he dropped in at the official exposition
of Sevres porcelain. Here the product
of every year was arranged chronologic-
ally and with great care. Of some kinds
there were full sets, but Of blue celeste
there were but three pieces, and the
custodian informed the king that 1t was
impossible to obtain more and that they
were of immense value

He Returned the Compliment.

A young man and young woman
are leaning over the front gate. They
are lovers. 1t is moonlight. He is loath
to leave, as the parting is the last. He
is about to go away. She is reluctant to
see him depart. They swing on the
gate
"I'll never forget you" he says,
'and if death should claim me, my last
thought will be of you. !"
'I'll be true to you, she sobs. ''1ll

long as I live.

turns. His sweetheart of former years

She has changed greatly. Between the
dances the recognition takes place.

"Knotty" History.

Tying knots in handkerchief to jog
ones memory had its origin in China
thousands of years ago. Before writing
was invented in that country, which
did not happen until 5000 B. c., memo
rable and important events were record
ed by long knotted cords. The most an
cient history of China is still preserved
as told by these knots.
When Emperor Tschang HI invented
writing, the entire system of knot
ting was abandoned. And today the
memory knots made by us in handker-
chiefs are the only surviving descend
ants of that ancient custom.

Supreme Council and received the
thirty third degree at Cincinnati, Ohio,
and in 1870 he was elected to the
active thirty-third degree and was
crowned as such in New York City.
For nine years he continued in the
active membership and then returned
to honary rank.
Sir Alfred Creigh, l.. l.. D., of Phil
| adelphia, the Chief Intendant General
of the United States, by authority of
the imperial council of England, con-
ferred the order of Knights of the Red
Cross of Rome and Constantine,
Knights of st. John, Viceroy Euseb-
Gus, Prince Mason and Holy Sepul-
cher upon Mr. Knapp in 1870, and
gave him charter for Orient Con-
clave, No to be held in Bloomsbury;
also enrolling his name on the book
of the Imperial Council in London,
England. In December, 1872, the
Grand Council of Pennsylvania was
formed at Reading, and he was elect
ed Grand Viceroy, which position he
filled for three years. In 1875 he
was elected grand sovereign of tie
Grand Council of Pennsylvania, and
served year. The Grand Imperial
Council of the United States, being
formed in June of that year, Mr..
Knapp was elected Grand Senior
General of that body; was elected
Deputy Grand Master of the Grand
Imperial Council for the United States
in the City of New York, and in 1877
he was elected Grand Master Of that
body in Rochester, N. Y. In 1874
he received the order of Grand Cross,
at the age Of Sc years, the distinction
which was enjoyed by but so living
members in the United States. In
June, 1877, he was reelected as the
second officer Of the Grand Chapter
of Grand Crosses, and in 1870 he
was elected Grand Master of the
Grand Chapter of Grand Crosses. In
1880 he retired from that position.
Such is the almost unparalleled
record of ore whose life has been so
closely and prominently linked with
Masonry thai he has given Blooms
burg prestige which she could never
otherwise enjoyed. Notwithstanding
the fact that Mr.. Knapp is almost an

Clement Elected Colonel.

Lieut.. Colonel G. M. Clement of
Sunbury was on Thursday night elect
ed Colonel of the Twelfth Regiment,
defeating Colonel J. B. Coryell who
was candidate for re election. The
election was conducted under the
supervision of Gen. J. P. S. Goblin the
commander of the brigade.
The headquarters of the regiment
will now be moved from Williamsport
to Sunbury, which fact stirred the resi-
dents OF the Lumber City into much
excitement. The new colonel is one
of the leading attorneys of Northum-
berland county. He was born in
Sunbury in 1855 and entered the
National Guards as private in 1877.
By various and successive promotions
he rapidly rose to the command OF
company in 1882.
In 1896 he became major and in
1898 was elected Lieut.. Colonel and
as such served with his regiment dur
ing the Spanish war.
