In way the china in uae at the
state banquets at the white house is
well worthy of rank among its art
treasures. Congress has from time to
time made various appropriations
ranging in amount as high as $4,000
for state dinner services, and these
various services are stored away in
the big china closets, for no ware
bearing the special copyrighted white
house mark is permitted TO leave the
executive mansion, save it be broken.
AS rule, each new administration Sc
cures a new set of china, and the old
sets are kept for show purposes only.
The Lincoln, Grant, Hayes and Cleve-
land sets are thus preserved. The
Hayes set is the handsomest OF the
entire lot, and cost about $1,000. Each
Of the 1900 pieces IS hand-painted
and each of the 500 pieces of cut glass
is engraved with the arms of the
United States. There has always
been much admiration expressed fol-
the Lincoln set.-Waldon Fawcett, IL

One of the most interesting and
trustworthy statements in respect to
old age is the report on the habits
of centenarians, made some years ago
by a commission appointed by the
British Medical association. 1t seems
that most Of these old people were
small or medium of stature and a
spare habit of body; the voice was
rather feeble; most of them had lost
their teeth, but nearly all enjoyed
good digestion, one old man of 9S
a clergyman, placing his hand on the
organ in question and saying that he
never knew what it was to have {
stomach. Nearly all of them had en-
joyed uninterrupted good health, ant
many had never known what it was t.
be sick. They were all very moderate
in eating, most of them using littl,
animal food. Few INDUCED at all il
Intoxicating drinks, and those onl,

ularly as to age, condition, and qualities Of
the parsons steed. At last he asked il

For Beauty After the Head Has Been
Shaved Perfectly Smooth.
A French explorer has discovered
the vainest people in the world By a
curious coincidence they happen to be
also the ugliest. They are the Pa
houins, savage tribe Of the western
coast of Africa. The main occupation
Of these people is the adornment Of
their persons. AS the Pahouin's cloth
Ing Is of so light character as not to
incommode him he bestows a good
share of his thought upon the adorn-
ment Of his body. which he tattoos In
elaborate designs done in red or blue.
Or a more fanciful effect is obtained
by tattooing in relief by injecting I'M
derneath the skin the juice of plant
which produces a permanent swelling
Sometimes the face and body are also
tinted with dye. red being the color
most in demand.
The same methods are used in adorn-
ing the face. especial attention being
given to the nose. Many of the Pa
houins after tattooing or painting their
noses pierce them with long, slender
bones. Others after piercing the nose
attach to it a string of colored pearls.
Both men and women concentrate
their efforts on their hair. Their inge-
nuity, which is shown in the construc-
ton of scores of different headdresses
| of bone and metal for the men Of the
tribe, chiefly the warriors, is Illustrated
in far greater degree by the coiffures
of the women.
The extreme of simplicity in the Pa

themselves beautiful Is to shave the
head till it is smooth and round as a
ball and then to color it with dye

FROM THE RuBAlYAT.

sometimes think that never blows % red
The rose AZ where some buried Cesar bled;
That every hyacinth the garden wears,
Dropt In her lap from some once lovely head
And this reviving herb whose tender green
Pledges the river lip on which we lean
All, lean upon 1t lightly, for who knows
From what once lovely lip 1t springs unseenl
And not . drop that from our cups we throw
For earth to drink of but may steal below
To quench the fire Of anguish in some eye
There hidden-far beneath, and long ago.
As then the tulip from her morning sup
OF heavenly vintage from the soil looks up.
Do you devoutly do the like till heaven
% earth invert you-like an empty cup.
