Character In the Hair

If your hair is fine, 1t denotes gentle
birth. If the ends cling together, it is
sign of great intellectually, and a
tendency to curl shows inherent grace
and poetic nature.
These are some of the things set
forth by the science of hair reading,
yet undeveloped, but likely to "give us
away" In a manner often more accu-
rate than pleasing.
This science tells us, too, that the
person with straight hair has firm,
positive and practical disposition. Col
or shows the temperament. For in
stance, 1t is well to watch out for the
person with black, lusterless hair. He's
apt to be treacherous and jealous. The
lighter the hair the more sensitive and
'touchy" its owner. Brown hair be-
longs to him who has common sense,
good judgment and reason in high de-
gree. which would indicate that hu-
manty isn't even half bad. Red hair
shows honesty and claverness.

FROM WASHINGTON
How a Little Boy Was Saved.

Washington, D. C.,-"When our boy
was about 16 months old he broke out
with rash which was thought to be
measles. In a few days he had a
swelling on the left side of his neck
and it was decided to be mumps. He
was given medical attendance for
about three weeks when the doctor
said it was scrofula and ordered a
salve. He wanted to lance the sore,
but would not let him and continued
giving him medicine for about four
months when the bunch broke in two
places and became running sore.
Three doctors said it was scrofula and
each ordered blood medicine. A neigh
Dor told me Of a case somewhat like
our baby's which was cured by Hood's s
Sarsaparilla. I decided to give it to
my boy and in short while his health
improved and his neck healed so nicely
that I stopped giving him the medi-
cine. The sore broke out again, how
ever, whereupon I again gave him

Facts
for

Any article, whatever its merit,
must be made known to the public BY
means of advertising. Advertising,
however, though it can do much for q
thing, cannot do everything. It NAV
create a sale for time, but in order
10 insure a lasting demand the thing
advertised must have solid worth.
This is the case with Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound. 1t has
solid worth.
Women everywhere have learned
this fact, and the result is that there
Is lasting and absolutely unequaled
demand for it. It has the largest sale
of any remedy for female ills in the
world, and this has been the case for
years.
The reason for this is that Mrs.
Pinkham claims nothing that she is
not entitled to claim. She can do all
that she says she can do, and her
twenty years of experience make her
advice invaluable. Herexperience has
been not only long but worldwide,
and she has helped more women back

Notwithstanding the serious outbreak, ne
cessitating the sending of troops to Schuyl-
kill county, everything is reported quiet in
the entire coal region tonight There is a
feeling that efforts will be made in all
districts Monday to start the mines that
are now idle. The persistence of the cor
porations and individual owners in as
serting that they will consider grievances
of their employees Individually, but will

citation of Iron and Steel Workers and

wage schedule that will be effective urI-
til July l, 1901. 1t is known as tfpe
yearly scale, which begins always witfE
July l. Owing to the unusual fiuctua-
lions of the market the new scale had
not been signed when the mills shut
down June 30, and the conditions have
been unfavorable since June, so that
the mills have been idle for almost
three months. AS soon as the scale was
signed this morning messages were
sent in every direction before the con-
ferees breakfasted, ordering the fires
built at once. Some mills will start
tomorrow, and all others as soon as
possible.
This decision means employment to
over $4,000 workingmen who have been
idle since June awaiting the adjust
ment of their wage scales.

TRADE REPORTS.

Bradstreets report for last week
says:
The unfavorable turn given the in
dustrial situation by the strike CT the
anthracite coal miners and the posi-
bility of wage disputes in the iron
trade with rather less activity in the
latter industry and some increase of
weakness in the prices of cruder forms
have given an appearance of irregular
jty to the general trade and business
situation. On the other hand, the
course of staple prices has been very
generally upward this week; fall dis
tribution of dry goods, clothing, hats
and millinery have been of large vol
ume at nearly all markets; there is a
decidedly better tone noted in the boot
and shoe and kindred trades, and the
strength of cotton goods, though APP
parently in excess of that shown by the
raw material has been regarded as In
dicative of confidence on the part of
manufacturers. The premature open
ing due to the hot, dry weather is re-
sponsible for part of the heavy move
ment of cotton to market, but back OF
this, of course, is the desire to profit
by the exceedingly good prices ruling.
The rush of receipts has been too much
for the bull movement, however, and
prices are materially lower on the
week. Raw cotton and cotton goods
have parted company as to prices this
week. The rush of buyers to secure
stocks has advanced print cloths, ging-
hams, bleached goods, prints, and in
fact, nearly all classes of cottons, while
materially reducing stocks in hands of
jobbers Most manufacturers are re-
fusing to take orders ahead except
on the value" based on the cost of
raw material. A little more is reported
doing in raw wool, but it is mostly to
supply current needs of manufacturers,
and no large amounts Of wool can be
moved except at concessions. The
spring business in mems woolens is
still disappointing. Reports of dam
age to grain in shock in the northwest,
reinforced by northwestern buying at
Chicago, furnished by the key to the
advance of nearly 2 cents in wheat this
week, followed by a gain of zoe to 25c
in flour and of 1Ac in corn. Some
of this advance in wheat was afterward
lost in releasing. Other farm products
were higher, pork and lard advancing
on better export business, and butter
and cheese on improved weather.
Iron and steel are rather quieter as
a whole, and some weakness is noted
in southern pig and steel billets at
Pittsburg. On the other hand, finished
products are as a rule firm and bars
are to be advanced 81 at Chicago. Elk
Fort inquiry continues good, but the
high ocean rates and the scarcity OF
any kind Of freight room renders the
outlook uncertain. In the meanwhile
American bars and plates are undersell
ing Scotch goods at the latter points
