Green Soap For the Hair.

Green soap is an indispensa bic
preparation to the woman who
would preserve the luster and rich
ness Of her hair. It is prepared and
prescribed by all persons who make
speciality of scalp treatment. The
following recipe was obtained from
the wife Of a prominent physician
who prepares the liquid soap for her
husband: Take equal. parts Of the
very best green CASTLE soap, water,
alcohol and glycerin. Heat the wa
ter and shave the soap into it. Then
stir it over the fire until it is per-
fectly smooth. Add the gylcerin
and stir again very thoroughly. The
alcohol is added last Of all, mixed
with two ounces of essential oil Of
any preferred scent. A small guam
tiity Of oil of orris gives a suggestion
Of violet, while oil Of verbena or oil
of sweet geranium gives an old fash
toned, wholesome scent. Of course
the alcohol is volatile and infamma-
bic and should not be ca1elessly dis
tributed over a hot fire. Otherwise
green soap making is extremely sim

declares, is unfailing. The follow

the last expedition General Lawton
made against Santa Cruz two regi-
ments, the Fourth cavalry and an
Idaho regiment, were sent up the
Laguna Gle Bay in native boats In
the darkness the two regiments ran
into one another, and great confu-

A DETACHED STATESMAN.

Lord Salisbury has a reputation
for being singularly detached from
the world of men and affairs. It
has been said that he has never
spoken to Mr.. Morley. It is also
said that poor Mr.. Foley of the for
eign office has to submit to be called
Mr.. Flower or Mr.. Fowler or any
thing but Foley.
Here is story that has just come
to me. It is typical. / offer no 9TH
er credential for it. Lord Salisbury,
the bishop of London and many 9th
ers, SO runs the story, happened to
be in room with the king. The
king said to the bishop: do you
know what Lord Salisbury has just
said about you9 He pointed you out
and asked, who is that young look
ing cleriea'" And then, to save
embarrassment of the bishop, his
majesty, with that invariable genial
lty which is all his own, added: ssBut
you need not mind that. I just
showed him the latest photograph
Of myself, and after looking at it
some moments in silence he said
sympathetically, Poor old Butler"

Four Dollar Bills,

The circulation of sheets Of four

by George ". Driver, a restaurant
man of Washington, has led to ac-

States, forbidding the further issue
Of bills in an uncut form to any one.
Prior to the Christmas holidays
Driver, it is said, advertised that he
would during the holidays give as
change to his customers "new four
dollar notes." The card was draw
ing one, and the host was besieged
with demands for the new bill.
Many people thought the advertise
ment was hoax, but we're surprised
to find that he had kept his word by
