length of the hair, are quite as appll-
cable to adults as to children.
The ladies of my acquaintance who
have been most celebrated for the
beauty of their hair usually made
practice of thoroughly cleansing the
roots every morning with damp
sponge. Nor would they venture TO
neglect the frequent use of the brush.
Indeed, he coarsest, most refractory
and snarly locks can be subdued and
made comparatively soft and glossy by
the use of the brush alone.
Constant brushing is the first rule
to subdue coarse and brittle hair. And
the morning is the best time for al eX-
tended application of the brush. be-
cause the hair is naturally more supple
then than at any other time. This
practice, thoroughly persevered IN,
will gradually tame down the porcu-
pine head, unless there is some scurfy
disease of the scalp, in which case the
following wash will be found a quite
sure remedy:
Salts of tartar ..............3 drains
Tincture of cantharides .... Is drops
Spirits of camphOr ..........15 drops
Lemon juice .................1a pint
In preparing this wash the salts
should be dissolved in the lemon juice
till the effervescence ceases, and then
add the other ingredients, and after
letting the whole remain exposed to
the air for half an hour it may be per
fumed and bottled for use.
This is one of the best and most
harmless washes for the hair I have
ever known. | am certain that LADY
or gentleman has but to try it to be

convinced of it's efficacy. But let me
impress upon you the Importance Of
brushing as a cardinal means Of beau
tifying the hair. Brush not one min
ute, but ten; not once a day, but two
or three or four times a day.
Two brushes are indispensable for
the tOilet-one for the rough use of
cleaning the hair and the other for
polishing it. A black brush should be
used for the former and white one
for the latter Ladies need not be
told that washing spells brushes. The
way to clean them is to rub them thor
oughly with bran, which removes all
the grease and leaves the bristl9s
stiff and firm as ever. When the
bristles Of a brush become too timber
for use they may be hardened again
by dipping them in one part spirits Of
ammonia and two of water. This will
also thoroughly cleanse them from all
greasy substances.

History has made us familiar with

WAS FIRST LADY OF LAND.
Daughter of President Tyler Still
Alive.

An interesting character in the
Louise home, in Washington, D. c., is
Mrs. Letitia Tyler Semple, grand
daughter Of John Tyler, Of revolution
airy fame, afterward Virginia's COVER
nor, and daughter of President Tyler.
She is eighty-fouf years old and is
blind. Mrs. Semple, because Of her
mothers i'll health, occupied the posi-
ton Of first lady Of the land" during
her fathers administration. Captain
Wallace Foster, of Indianapolis, has
been brought much into communica-
ton with Mrs. Semple, through his
patriotic work and because Of her in
terest in what he has done. Some
months ago he sent her a silk flag
mounted on staff with stand. Fol
lowing is her acknowledgment:
"Your graceful and polite letter
reached me two days ago. My i'm
pulse was to acknowledge it imme-
dIately. The patriotic souvenir was
safely delivered by the express compa-
ny and your letter by mail in an hour
or two after it. | thank you very
much for your consideration for me
and your recognition of the patriotic
services of my father and the efforts
made by my fOrefathers to secure to
this country a constitution and laws
which would make of this nation free
and happy people. The appearance Of
the flag you have sent has brought be-
fore me the recollection of how fire.
Quently it has been dipped In compli-
ment to myself both in the waters Of
Europe and within the bounds of our
own country. And so patriotic were
the instructors of my youth, that when
lying i'll on the ship Arago and life ex-
pected to continue only for a few
hours, the only request made of those
around me was When you bury me in
the waters of the Atlantic, wrap me
in the flag of my country Forty years
ago this request was made, since
which time I have suffered many
things. The colonial palace, at what
is now Williamsburg, Va, was my
home, surrounded by beautiful trees,
fruits and flowers, and standing at the
head of the Palace Green and from
its windows looking out on the old
city, where the revolution was begun.
All the buildings were pulled down
and the materials carried away; not
even tree was left to mark the spot
Of happy home and an historical rec
ord. Congress has made no compensa-
ton, as you know, and | thank you
for your wish that it should But IN
my heart and mind | have no thought
that such a cOnsummatiOn, so devoutIy
to be hoped for, will ever be reached.
A long and terrible illness has de-
prived me almost entirely of sight, and
therefore my letters are by dictation
to kind friends who write for me. 1t
is my prayer that the Star-Spangled
Banner shall give peace to the world
and lin triumph shall wave DER the
land of the free and the home of the
brave. l am respectfully yours, Lett

The latest snake sensation in til
New York ZOO is a two-headed milk
snake, found a few days ago in the
Bronx 1t is 10 inches long, and
about One-fourth of an inch thick at
it's greatest diameter, where the
body begins to separate to form its
two necks and heads. It's age S
estimated at between three and four
months. The two separate and per
fectly formed heads are little over
an inch in length. The heads appear
for most of the time to exist in per
feet harmony, but when food is offered
to the snake, the antagOnism of the
two heads has thus far prevented any
nourishment from being given the
creature Whenever one head It,
tempted to take food a quarrel would
ensue. The keepers fear that unless
some method of contracting a truce
between the two jealous heads can r e
devised, they will lose their rare
specimen from starvation.
