CosTERs' cURLING-IRoNs.
English Carter Lads Take Great
Pride In the Adjournment OF
Their Hair.

With ell that has been written
about costers of late years, there is
one fact known to every East end bar
Der, which the writer has never seen
dwelt upon anywhere. and that is, the
immense pride that "dossy" young
costers and young men of analogous
class in the East end take in the
adornment of their hair, says London
Tit-Bits.
An East end barber in large way
of business, man who had previously
served for years as the assistant in a
West end establishment. the other
day told the present writer that he
never, even in the West end, knew the
young men as class to be more par
ticular as to how they would have
their hair cut. He added that he did
an immense hair-cutting business here,
solely with young fellows who spring
from a humble class.
al often curl the hair of scores of
coster young men twice a week." he
said, land / sell very great number
of curling toNgs to costers and bar
men, two curls from the forehead to
the back of the head being apparently
a necessity of existence with the smart
barman. Butchers lads, perhaps
they are often without hats, are
great patrons of curling irons. In
proportion to their incomes even eel
ebrated West end swells do not spend
more"
Another barber bore this out to the
full, and referred the writer to shop
at Deptford. which sells immense
quantities of cheap curling requisites
to costers, barmen, young soldiers
at Woolwich and to butcher boys. The
proprietor of this shop declared that
he sold almost as many of such requi-
sites to costers and barmen as he did
to women.

A CINDER IN THE EYE.

Boracic acid in solution with rose
water makes very good eye wash.
1t should be applied warm, through
glass pipette.
Foreign bodies lodging on the eye
may be imbedded in the cornea or
eyeball, or may be beneath either lid.
The mistake the majority of people
make in looking for a foreign body
in the eye is in presupposing that
it is under either lid, and the search
is fruitless.
Ii a foreign particle is found in
the eye the best way to remove ii
is to roll cotton on a match stick.
dip it in warm water and gently rub
over the particle and it will adhere
to the cotton. This is much better
than the corner of a handkerchief
or any other method and gives less
pain.
After the removal of the object,
II the eys is much infiamed or pain
full, great relief may be obtained by
ice cold congresses. These should
be small square pieces of muslin or
linen large enough to cover the
whole eye; three or four should be
placed on a cake of ice near the bed
side. One compress is placed when
cold on the eye; when it begins t.,
get warm it should be again applied
to the ice and another cold one sub.
stituted. The sufferer can do this
himself.

A VALID IDENTIFICATION .

II don't know you madam" CURLY
announced the cashier of a prom
inent bank to woman who had pre-
scented check. Instead of endeavor-
ing to annihilate him by a naughty
glance and shrill eXpostulation, this
genius tried new trick, says the
Chicago Tribune.
80, yes. you do. I'm the back num-
Der trump next door to you whose
measly young ones are always steal
ing your flowers through the broken
fence. When you kicked the cat off

hastily interrupted, coughing loudly

visaged woman with the malicious
eyes whom the cashier didn't know
until too late.

TRINKETS AND TRIPLES.

Odd and pretty among silver fittings
for the desk is a olid-silver-mounted
pig penwiper, the back of the pig be-
ing filled with bristles for wiping the
pen.
Ivory and tortoise-shell toilet ar
ticies are pushing the silver articles
aside. Tortoise-shell is particularly
fashionable and usually bears the
owners monogram in gold.
A pretty hair ornament is in the
shape of a gauze wing butterfly with
trimmings of gold braid. In the CEN
ter of each wing is mother-of-pearl
ornament in shape following the out
line of the wings.
Peacock jewelry is having a great
rage at present and many beautiful
articles in the jewelry line are shown
in peacock designs. Pins, belts,
buckles and purses are all made in rep
resentation of this gorgeous fowl.
A shirt-waist set consists of crystal
buckle for the belt, crystal drop but
tons for the front fastenings, crystal
cuff links for the sleeves and crystal
bar pin with drop ends for fastening
the tie at the neck.
Watch fobs are made of shirt-waist
materials. They are the plain strap,
like those made of leather, and the
pendant is stirrup and the strap of
the material, the buckle small horse
shoe in a metal that looks like gun
metal.

PERSONAL AND LITERARY.

Prof. Francke, of Harvard, who has
been working on the big Germanic art
collection, has written poem which
has greatly taken the public fancy of
the German people.
Jules Verne, the French author of
exaggerated fiction, says 100 years
hence very few books will be written,
prediction that may be taken as an
indication that NJ. Verne expects to die
before the year 1000.
Arthur w. A'Beckett, long a men,
Der of the staff of Punch, is to start
a new comic weekly, to be known as
John Bull. Percy Spence and Harry
Furiss are to be among the artists
connected with the new publication.
The two largest sums ever paid to
LongfelIow for single poems were 3d.
900 for 1.-THE Hanging of the Crane"
which amount he received from Rob-
ert Bonner in 1874. and 81 900 for "Ke-
ramos" which he received from Har-
per & Bros. in 1877 for the poems
publication in Harper's Magazine.
1t was Louis WV. who introduced
morocco as material for bookbind-
ing. He desired to make a treaty of
commerce and alliance with the en-
peror of Morocco, and covenanted that
"all books hereafter ordered for the
kings libraries should be bound in
leather brought from the empire of
Morocco"
Mrs. Amelia Barr has written 3S
books in 16 years. They have been
years of almost incessant labor, for
she never allows herself holiday. 1t
is her boast that every one of her
books is ''as good as could make it,"
She works from five to eight hours
daily, her matter being dictated to
an amanuensis.
The similarity of titles is likely to
lead to some confusion between
Charles Majors Dorothy Vernon. of

1t is a most extraordinary coincidence
that two authors working independ-
emily should have CHANGED upon the
same story and almost the same title,
and should have published almost CO.

IN THE ANIMAL KINGDOM.

Cleveland has an auto dog am
bulance. 1t is also used for cats and
other small animals, and is the only
one in the world.
The fight against the mosquito pests
in New Jersey continues with vigor.
Crude oil is being used, this being the
best and most efficacious remedy yet
known 1t is also proposed to breed
dragon flies to assist in the crusade.
Tarantulas are now bred in Aus
tralia for their webs, the filaments of
which are made into threads for bal
looms. Each tarantula yields from 20
to 40 yards of filament, of which eight
twisted together form single thread
of sufficient stoutness. 1t is much
lighter than silk.
More protection is needed for lob
sters. 1t is a slow breeder, laying eggs
but once in two years, and carrying
these eggs attached to the modified
legs under the abdomen for ten or
eleven months after laying; while the
young require probably four to seven
years to reach maturity and attain a
length of from seven to ten inches.
A German observer noticed during q
thunderstorm wild goose fall heavily
to the ground at his feet. After the
storm had abated he found another
dead goose lying on the ground at a
distance of about a mile. An eXamina-
tion of their carcasses revealed two
quite small wounds little over an irch
long on the back of the neck of each
bird

SAVING A POSITIVE VIRTUE.
The Habit of Thrift Thus Regarded
by Head of Americas Greatest
Savings Bank.

Saving is positive virtue; but man
may save too much. He may go naked
and catch cold; but human nature is
not built that way.
1t goes without saying that the man
wh1 is not provident and does not lay
np for rainy day has not the first ele-
ment of advancement. He needs to
learn of his neighbors the squirrels and
the bees. There comes a time when
ones savings are needed, and there
also comes a time when they are not
only NEEDED, but become storehouse
from which he may use the energies
which he has accumulated.
The accumulation of savings elm
mates the fear of want and gives con-
seriousness of strength. The possessor
of savings, however small, knows that
he has something to fall back upon.
The army that has no commissary in
the rear has but little energy to give to
the fight in front.
In the physical world, were it not
for the coal stored up during the past
agesthe inha bitants of the globe would
be without fuel. The conservation of
energy is factor in the, success of ma
ture as well as in that of an individual
or a nation.
The Bowery savings bank is the larg-
est savings institution in the world.
I have been connected with the insti-
tuition for 40 years. When l was first
made director of the bank there were
$7,0O0,OOO on deposit. To-day the
books show $s0,O00,000. We average
from 1850 to 1000 transactions day.
BY that / mean there are that many
deposits and drafts made. Thursday
there were 1895 people in the bank.
They deposited $14O,000 and drew $751;
900, leaving the balance of $65, 900 in the
bank as the result of that days busi-
ness. This is a fair sample of day s
transactions.
We have nearly 100000 depositors at
this one bank. in New York state the
deposits in our savings banks amount
to more than $1O0,O00,000. In the ma
iority of cases the individual account
is small Now, just what do these fig
ures mean? How does savings bank
assist in the development of the
worlds business?
These institutions are regarded as
repositories of the savings of the
thrifty classes of the community. And
this is true; yet it is but part of the
function of the institution. Through
the instrumentality of the savings
bank this immense amount of money
is thrown into remuneratiye action
and thereby contributes to the ad-
yancement of society. If it had not
been availa BILE for investment purposes
many of the towns and villages that
now are equipped with all the conven-
fences of modern times would be de-
prived of them.
Fewer water works would be in eX-
istence, fewer schoolhouses, fewer
church edifces. here is a practical use
for these savings, writes John d.
Hicks, in New York News.
Just a word of the reflex action upon
those who save.
Among the 100000 depositors here
a percentage are children. That is, the
parent and guardian deposit in the
name, of the children. The little ones
are thus taught in the most effective
way possible the value of property
and the benefits accruing from it. In
other words, they are taught the real
meaning of thrift

DIFFERENCE IN BACHELORS.
The American and COrean COntrasted
by an Artful Dodge of
Matchmakers.

The matron was Disguised with the
bachelor. There was no doubt about
it. She said she was, relates the New
York Tribune
For the fourth time he had foiled her
most skillful efforts at matchmaking.
She had given him every opportunity
to fall in love with four girls, any one
of whom was prize. They would have
taken him, too, had he asked them the
all important question, for he was de-
eidedly "catch." But he was happy
in his single life, and did not care to
take a risk.
81 wash my hands of you," she said.
Never again, never, shall I introduce
you to another girl, and I hope you
may never know the happiness of be-
ing married to charming woman
Il second that hope with all my
heart" he added, smiling
She glared.
81 wish you had been born a Corean,"
she cried.

replied. american birth is good

Surely you would not have me pigmy,

swered, shortly, shut if you had been
a Corean you would forget this bach
elor madness. Until you had mar
ried you would have to wear your hair
in braid to keep quiet in company,
and to be without rights as man.
That would bring you to time quickly
enough"
''I'm not so sure" he said. "Let us
see what rights come to the Corean by
marriage. He can pile his hair on top
of his head, which to my notion would
be nuisance. He can squat instead of
sitting down properly, and he can jab-
Der away in company"
"But you forget that until married
he cannot smoke tobacco!"
She knew that was telling shot.
Had he not been punctuating his re-
marks with rings from his shining
briar
81 did forget the smoking" he said,
smiling. eff l were a Corean, would
certainly marry"
"Brute!" she cried, as he left her.
