NEXT YEARS CoIFFuRE.

"A woman's chief glory is her hair,'
 and its becoming and fashionable ar-
 rangement has always proved an inn
 portant item of the toilet. In past sea-
 sons there has been a sufficient diversi-
 ty of style to allow every taste to be
 satisfied, but now one particular mode
 alone is to predominate and find favor
 as the ''correct thing" This is
 achieved by the alliance of the three
 great hair-dressers' schools, La Societe
 du Progress the Academic Information
 ale, and the International society.
 Their combined deliberations will now decide the coming styles and individu-
 al taste will only be exercised in the variation and modification of that par
 ticular mode. Last Wednesday the first exhibition of addressing by the Amalgamated Hair-dressers' Schools of London took place in the St. James hall, the most prominent and interest ing feature of which was, without doubt, the fashion scheme. In this sec ton thirty experts practically demon- strated their skill It having been de- cided that the pompadour, or. more strictly speaking, the semi-pompadour, style should reign supreme as the most correct fashion for 1901, the proceedings were confined to the illustra ton of the several conceptions of this particular idea. The abolition of the high and generally becoming method of dressing will be deplored by many, but it must be acknowledged that the pompadour is eminently more suited to the average English face, To attain this effect the hair is softly waved from the forehead with just a suspicion of a parting. One or two tiny curls rest on the face, and the hair is gathered into coils or curls at the nape of the neck, leaving it full at the sides, where it is kept in place with combs. This fashion will abolish the enormously high headdress favored of late, and introduce once more the pretty jeWeled combs, once so popular, but for it's proper execution the dresser demands hair tWenty-eight inches long an almost prohihitive clause for many, unless artificial means are em- Telegraph.

SHE TOOK THE ANTIQUE" OFF

SHE TOOK THE ANTIQUE" OFF.
 New Orleans is still a fine hunting ground for antique furniture" said a local auctioneer, "and scores of north ern tourists prowl over the field every
 winter looking for treasure trove in
 that line. It is lots of fun, and some times they pick up a good thing. In that connection I can tell you rather a quaint little story. Last fall Boston woman, who is well known here and a
 great ollector of antiques, was looking LID an address in Ursuline street, and stopped at a Certain house to make
 some inquiries. While talking with a widow and her daughter, who live on
 the premises, she caught sight of a- beautiful old Dutch cabinet in the
 front room. The doors were ornament
 ed with carved figures of the apostles,
 and the brass hinges and lock were In themselves fine examples of early
 eighteenth century workmanship. The
 Boston visitor was greatly interested,
 of course, but she was in hurry, and, keeping the address, promised to call again and make an offer for the curio.
 A day or two later, however, she was
 summoned north, and it was only last month that she wrote to say she would
 be in the city shortly and would be around to have talk about the cabi- net This letter greatly excited the widow and her daughter, and they de-
 cided it would be a good idea to fur bish up the old piece of furniture be- fore the stranger arrived. Accordingly they scrubbed it with lye and pumice stone until they removed all the mel low lustre Of age; put on nice, strong hinges they bought at a hardware store around the corner, and equipped the door with a patent Yale lock. Then they touched up the apostles with pink enamel paint, and gave the whole thing several coats of shiny varnieh When the Boston connoisseur arrived they met her with beaming smiles. Yes, we still have the cabinet said the widow, but you wouldn't hardly know it-it looks exactly like new!' The visitor gave a glance at the thing and hame near faintins in her tracks. She is an old customer of mine and when she told me the story she shed briny tears. She declared those salmon pink apos- ties would haunt her to the last day of her life. I understand the widow and her daughter were highly indignant over their failure to effect a sale. They felt they had been imposd on some ow."-New Orleans Times-Democrat. 1
