NIsEsaging the Hair.

"No, do not use the brEsh for my
hair. save to assist in its final arrange
ment. 1 use a piece of pure silk cloth
the size of mans handkerchief, or
larger. I begin at the roots of the
hair, giving the scalp thorough mass
age to remove the accumulated refuse
that is daily deposited at each root
in a tiny mound, at the same time
stimulating the minute muscles, veins
and nerves OF the scalp. Thus l get
a liberal supply of blood at that part
of the body. Then I begin to go over
the entire length of the hair, taking as
much as will go comfortably and fatty
between the palms of my hands. which
are covered with the Silk.
1.-THE hair is rubbed vigorously from
root to tip. Then the blood having
been started circulating along each
hair, 1 take a strand in one hand COW
cred by the silk and stroke 1t the en-
tire length, going over it as IL with
brush. This stroking is accelerated
until the hair takes on quite a sheen,
which is the main attraction of this
method.
"What made me take to the silk?
Well, in New York City, at the horse
show, noticed the attendants care
fully wrapped the horses names and
tails in silk rags for the hours when
they were not on exhibition. The at
tendants said this was to gloss up the
hair. 1 reasoned, what is good for
horses names and tails must be good
for our hair, too.
81 tried to put in practice what 1 had
learned; but the silk would slip off
after being bound over my hair at
night, so for a while 1 gave it up.
Later, following up the silk idea, re-
membered cleansing my hair once,
while travelling, by rubbing around the
roots with a silk handkerchief, which
not only removed much of the car dirt,
but left an exhilarating feeling over
my scalp, hair and even my face. This
started Inc to massaging my hair rath-
er than brushing it. Soon 1 saw a
sheen not there before. That's all."-

Honeynoons Awheel.

Much interest was taken recently in
marriage solemnized at Christ
Church, Guildford, England, in which
a motor car played prominent part.
The bride was well-known Guildford
lady, while the bridegroom carries on
business in Worthing as maker of
cycles and motor apparatus. The
gentleman, accompanied by his best
man, drove up to the church in a SUI
perb motor car, and Immediately after
the ceremony the happy pair started
straightway for their honeymoon on
the motor, their first stopping place
being Worthing.
A similar honeymoon took place in
France not long ago, when a wealthy
and eccentric baker espoused the
daughter of provincial farmer The
wedding was solemnized in Rouen,
the girls native town, and from that
place motor car conveyed the couple
to Paris. The affair caused much ex-
element in the districts through
which the honeymooning pair passed,
and large crowds turned out to cheer
them IA +heir car dashed through the
country lanes and. roads,

Gray is beautiful color, and q
handsome coat of pale gray cloth,
three-quarter length with pleated
back, has applications of leaves in
heliotrope velvet around the edge and

All-feather hats are charming where
they are well made, and one made en-
tirely OF one kind of feathers-nothing
but the feathers in sight-and these
of fine mottled black and white, hav-
ing the effect of gray, is one of the
prettiest hats to be seen.
A red silk waist has stitched side
pleats, which face to the centre. where
they leave only sufficient space for a
line Of small black silk buttons. The
waist is stitched with black and the
tone is deepened by a narrow, pointed
silk braid which edges every pleat.
Long coats for little children are
some Of them of corduroy, double
breasted, with large brass buttons on
either side. There are broad lapels at
the neck, but they fasten up close in
the throat, as all winter coats for chill
dren should, and there is little stand
ing collar Of the material.
A pretty nightdress made in a be-
coming fashion, with round yoke of
lace insertion, finished around the
throat with simple edge of lace, is
buttoned down the left side instead Of
opening at the centre of the front.
This Is good, for there is no break in
the centre Of the pretty yoke to spoil
its effect. The break when it comes
Is well up on the shoulder.

Kaiser Descendant of Arpad.

A Budapest journalist named Stefan
Michailovits has published an article
in Hungarian newspaper in which he
professed to prove that Kaiser Will
helm Is descended from the Magyar
chief Arpad, the founder of the Hun
garian monarchy says correspon-
dent. The information was new to
His Majesty, who received the cut
ting Of the paper describing the con-
nection between the Hohenzollerns
and the House of Arpad; so he handed
it over to the chief official of the fam
lily archives and the matter will be in
vestigated. 1t is affirmed by Herr
Stefan Michailovits that Kaiser Will
helm is a descendant of St. Elizabeth
of Hungary, and that this lady is Of
the House of Arpad.

What Boer Wagons Are Like.

Referring to the large number of
wagons which are reported as having
been captured from the Beers, a gen
tleman oil so-.A African experience
says that people had very little idea
of what a South African wagon is.
They are huge numbering vehicles,
each drawn by 16 oxen. A wagon and
It's oxen extend for about 100 feet,
and so of them would extend for O
mile in a straight line. OF these
wagons there is an abundant supply,
for every country Boer has one or
more. 1t is doubtful as to whether
oxen have been taken with the wagons.
A thousand wagons, for instance,
would require 10000 oxen. Many Of
the wagons have been taken without
their teams. In any case, it seriously
cripples the Beers to deprive them Of
their wagons, and so many have now
been captured by our troops that there
cannot be many left.

STEEL MAKING IN INDIA.
industry Did Not Thrive Because Ma
teriaIs Were Scarce.

A statement recently made by Lord
George Hamilton, to the effect that
he expected to soon see the manufac-
ture of steel begun in India, has ar
rested attention in England. Great
Britain has long supplied the people
OF her Indian empire with most of the
steel consumed in the latter country.
1t is rather surprising that the indus
try OF manufacturing steel should have
been so long delayed in India. or
course, the East Indians have been
familiar with it's use for long period
and have produced it in limited guam
titles, but modern methods have not
hitherto been introduced, although the
iron ores Of the empire are of rare
purity and may be found in abund-
ance wherever there are hills. At
tempts have been made by foreigners
to establish iron works on a large
scale, but they have all failed, ow-
Ing to the difficulty of finding the three
elements of iron working-the ore, the
fiuX and the fuel-sufficiently close to-
gether to permit profitable working.
Presumably the extension Of railroads
has put new phase on the problem.

Two Autumn Favorites,

Boas, neck ruffles and corduroy
seem to be having it all their own way
in the shops these days. Every shop
has special attractions in neck fixings
and the variety is bewildering. There
are enormous rufiles of white or col
Ored mousseline, lace or chiffon, with
long ends of plisse, diaphanous stuff
(which in their turn are ruched and
frilled and fiuifed with lace, chiffon or
narrowest gauze ribbon. Then there
are boas OF lace with ends of gauze
and ribbon or mousseline and chenille.
and some of the tiny ruffies which
ornament these boas are edged with
,fhe most delicate of lace edgings black
for white boas and white for black
)boas being the usual order. Fichu
lboas are f,;aceful, and to tall women
they should be most becoming. Some
of these have Il collar of plain OF fold
ed chiffon, edged with a narrow frill
of plisse material. This is brought
over the shoulders and caught in at
either side just below the shoulders in
front. The ends broaden as they fall
and at the knee are sometimes a cou-
pie of yards wide, although, of course,
fhe plisse material takes up most of
this material. These boas are worn
Instead Of a wrap or for an extra bit
of finery over an evening cloak.
Another autumn craze is corduroy.
1t was worn last winter. 1t was even
popular. But this season it bids fair
Ito enjoy furore of favor. For rainy
day suits and those trim, short-skirted
morning costumes which are becoming
SO fashionable in this day of good
health and good sense, cotton corduroy
is an ideal material. 1t is light in
jweight, hut warm enough for winter
wear; pretty, youthful, stylish, and
comes in the most becoming Of colors.
The browns and tans are probably tie
best for wear, and black is the least

Women Come to the Front in Trade.

The prevalence of the woman buyer
is, like many other innovations in the
world of trade, chiefly attributable to
the development and immensely wide
distribution of department stores.
These beehives of universal supply are
10 longer features of the great cities
alone. Every town of any pretensions
throughout the length and breadth Of
the country has one department store
or more, and every department is con-
Quoted like separate business. One
establishment of this character in the
West had 81 buyers from its various
branches registered in New York a
week ago. Most of them were women,
and all were conducting their bust
ness without the slightest indication
of regard for what the rest were doing.

Potatoes Scarce; Eat Rice and Corn.

Few people seem to be aware of the
fact that the potato is merely bunch
OF starch and water, contributing
scarcely anything to the human body
but fat. Boiled rice and corn meal
not only have the fat making qualities
Of the potato, but they are excellent
brain and muscle buYlders. Potatoes
721a per cent. of water and rice
72h pc rcent.; potatoes have 2.22 per
cent. of albuminous matter and rice
2.8 per cent; potatoes have 20 per
cent. of starch, while rice has 24.10
per cent. But corn and rice contain
more phosphates and protein elements
than are essential in a healthy body
With rice at 10 cents a pound and corn
at 65 cents bushel sack, potato
famine should have no terrors for the
poor.

 Discussing the lynchins question. The Columbus, s. C., State gays: 'The news papers of the, South are certainly doing their duty. Fifteen years ago 1t was the exception to disapprove lynching for the special ciime and strong dsnunt iation Of the practice was seldom heard from the press. Now 1t is quite different. There Is hardly any news wtpaper of consequence in the South that now condones mob viol- lence on any provocation, while the great majority of them unhesitatingly condemn and denounce lynchings even when they occur In the newspapers im- mediate locality. The influence of the press is unmistakably against the prac- tice, and if that influence is of any con- sequence there is certainly basis for hoping that public sentiment will talk that direction"
 There is not. so far as we have seen, a newspaper of character or consequence in all the South which does not boldly and vigorously condemn the mob spirit No newspaper with intelligent compre- hension of the evil and it's consequences can fail to do otherwise. The news paper which fails to do it's duty in this matter Is either afflicted with cowardice for which there is no cause, unless it b. an inherent and characteristic weakness or with an incapacity to see clearly what the unchecked mob spirit must mean. Al wise and healthy sentiment Is opposed to the mob spirit.

LAW OR LAWLEssNEss.

A few days ago there was an exhibi- tion of brutality at Sacramento which is thus stated by The Bee of that city:
 The most infamous event that has yet hap pened in the strike at the Bay was the beating yesterday morning of non-union men by a COW ardly lot of strikers on the ferryboat Pied mont.
 And call them a cowardly lot for sev- eral reasons They paraded the decks of the Piedmont in gangs of eight, hunting in every nook and corner and cianny for the few non unionsts who were hiding from theT brutal pursucIs. They caught some of the frightened men and beat them unmerc!fully in the pres ence of trembling women, girls, and children who crowded the boat their way to work
 This is one of those occurrences which too often attend strikes and which do so much to deprive the strikers of the sym pathy which they would otherwise ie- eeive. That all strikes arc not accom- Danied by such conduct as here describ- ed. is a matter of congratulation, and is perhaps due more to the character of the men engaged in the strike than to anything else.
 It is to be noted that newspapers and newsnaper writers are responsible to a large degree for the excessive and vi
 
 | example. a writer in a recent issue of the same Sacramento Bee. speaking of | the right of laboring men to portion of the wealth which they produce or help to produce declares that the whole fault of the labor unions of today is, that they do not demand this WHOLE PRODUCT, even if it involves the eXportaticn of all | Ca pital, which Is, outside of bonds, mcr Dc Iy accumulatCd labor appropriated by private individuals for private use We can hardly imagine more vicious sentiment from a citizen of q civilized State than that is. His idea, plainly eX- pressed. Is that the luboring men should demand the entire product of their labor
 even if the result should be to drive all capital out of the State 'r put of the country. This it would assurcdly do' -o'
 no capital would be invested where il could reap no portion of the profits. In
