Long Haired Men.

The native inhabitants of the Malay
peninsula and several of the Indian
tribes of our own country never permit
their hair to be cut. The hair of one of
the chiefs of the Crow tribe grew to a
length of ten feet. The men of the La
tookas, one of the African tribes, never
cut their hair, but, allowing it to grow,
weave it into the most wonderful shapes.
The thick, crisp wool is woven with fine
Irvine made from the bark of tree until
it represents a network of felt. As the
hair grows it is subjected to the same
process and trained into the shape of a
helmet. A rim about two inches deep is
formed, and the front part of this hair
helmet is protected by piece of polished
copper, while piece of the same metal,
shaped like the half of bishops inter
and about one foot in length, forms the
crest The helmet is then adorned with
numerous varicolored beads.

"One of the worst snorers l think that
l ever had the misfortune to be person.
ally acquainted WITH" began the white
haired dry goods drummer reflectively,
''was a chap named Sam Snoggles, WAC
was in the same company with me in the
army during the civil war. The poor
fellow is dead long ago, believe, and
don't want to say anything to injure
the feelings of his friends, but the truth
of the matter was that when Snoggles
slept there was mighty little rest for
any one in the neighborhood.
''The minute he got to sleep he would
roll over on his back, open his mouth
and tune up. He would begin with a
noise something like a man gently scrap
ing a fiddle bow across the strings, and
as he went on the sound would gradually
rise higher and higher and spread out
and increase in volume until the whole
tent was packed so full of it that the
sides bulged out, and then he would
suddenly wind up with terrific snort
that nearly shook the ground.
Naturally, this was rather wearing
on the rest of us, and we tried various
schemes to break him of snoring, but
without success Finally we hit upon
the plan of tying a piece of hard tack
to string, attaching the other end of
the string to pole and then, after
dangling the cracker over the yawning
cavity until it was exactly in the right
position, dropping it gently into his
mouth. This would tickle his palate
and set him to coughing. and as it
would take him some time to settle down
and get his snore foundry going at full
blast again the other occupants Of the
tent would manage in the meanwhile to
secure a little rest
''But it used to puzzle Snoggles greatly

Are You Fit To be Trusted With a Good Set of BRAINS? Grape-Nuts Keep Them in
 Order.
A BRAIN FOOD AND REPAIRER
Keep Them in Order.

Every minister, lawyer, journalist, physician, author or business man Is forced under pressure of modern condi- lions to the active and sometimes over- active use of the brain. Analysis of the excreta thrown out by the pores show that brain work breaks down the phos- phate of potash, separating it from its heavier companion, albumen, and plain, common sense teaches that this element al principle must be introduced into the body anew each day, if we would re- place the loss and rebuild the brain tis- sue.
 We know that the phosphate of pot ash as presented in certain field grains has an affinity for albumen and that is the only way gray matter in the brain can be built It will not answer to take the crude phosphate of potash of the drug shop, for nature rejects it. The elemental mineral must be presented through food directly from natures lab oratory.
 These facts have been made use of in the manufacture of Grape Nuts, and any brain worker can prove the value of the proper selection of food by mak- ing free use of Grape-Nuts for ten days or two weeks. Sold by grocers every where (and in immense quantities). Manufactured by the Postum Cereal O., Ltd, Battle Creek, Michigan.

would be but step from our present | free constitution to a despotism; a steI which an interruptions man could read l fly take. The habit of yielding to pub
 lie sentiment or deciding matter by ar gument, of letting the common sense of
 the community rule our actions so that
 we do not need to have policemen to CO.,
 cree us, we can trust ourselves to yield
 to this sentiment, is something invalua-
 ble, and the education that leads to it
 is most likely to be highly praised.
 l Politics, political life. political office | holders, is the most concentrated form l of. business and the most essential a | trust rather than means of private
 gain. This idea of violating not only in
 the cases where a man sells his vote,
 which are so fragrant that no respecta- | ble man would want to do it, but in the cases where great many respectable men allow themselves to be swindled by small consderations-whe men look upon imperialism as a means of ad- vancement of this we have a great deal to learn.
 q have no desire to exalt England at the expense of the United States: Eng land has it's virtues and has it's vices. But from the very fact of having so long governed subject races, England has a power that we might well imi- tate, that her public men find their ann bition not in advancement of a part, but in advancement of the whole.
 II have no desire to start up any con troversy, but if you want an object les
 son from last years events, look at the difference between the efficiency of the navy where public sentiment subordi- mates private interest, to the general advantage as compared with the con- duct of the war, not from the fault of any individual, but of a defective sys- tenn. What we need in the United States Is that same public spirit which characterizes on the whole, the feelings of the United States navy. The scram- ble for certain offices in the navy is per- haps as noticeable as in some other places, but taking it broadly and large ly, there is feeling among the officers of the American navy that they are part of the great public whose glory is greater than anything they can do for themselves, and they subordinate them- selves to that hope. That is public spirit. That is public. sentiment. That is what we must have in politics"

NEW YORK COLOR STUDIO
 Over a big dry goods store close te
 Fifth avenue in the central part o1
 town q New York woman has opened
 novel workshop. It is not a money
 making plant in any respect, nor does
 the proprietor expect any immediate
 and tangible results from her labors
 but it's aims are wide and far-reachins
 and many silent partners and collabora- tors are watching the scheme with inter- est "Color Studio is inscribed on the with everthing which pertains to color study. Shades, tones, tints, textures, every color qualification and the law that governs it's blending or antago- niem are aptly demonstrated. Two women sit with glasses and prisms be- fore them, now turning a color wheel to get certain combinations and results fixed in their minds,now jotting down a new deduction or discussing some new problem that has come up for consider ation in this to them, the most import ant subject in the world. The desks are filtered with the latest authorities on color and it's effects: the walls are hung with illustrations, and there is everywhere evidence of the earnest op- plication of the devotees.
 Artists and students of most branches of art are, of course, the normal sup porters of the cause, but the main am bition of the studios founder is to get the workers at the more commonplace trades interested in color study and give the subject of color it's rightful rank in the popular estimation. Milliners and dressmakers who are artists at heart if not in practice, florists, Weavers pat tern designers, house painters, decora- tors and amateurs in household and do- nestle art generally are invited to ben eft by the increased knowledge regard ing color that this studio will place at their disposal. The proprietor, Mrs. Vanderpoel, who desires her own per kept in the background, has made color study her hobby for years, indeed almost a lifetime and has wis., tied laboratories where the subject was investigated, studied with learned professors and made personal expert ments from time to time. Now she wishes to share the enlightenment that has come to her from long cultivation with those to whom the knowledge would be of practical use.
 At present there are no classes formed and only few pupils and favored wis tors are aware of the studios existence since no publicnity has been given it; but Mrs Vanderpoel and her young associates are regular attend ants and spend hours over their engros- sing study.
