INDICATION OF VANITY.
Through the Hair Common
Among Men.

"Why does a man always run his
hand through his hair when he takes
his hat off?" asked an observant
man, according to the New Orleans
Times-Democrat Did you ever no
tice that man will invariably do this
very thing? Is it just nervous
habit? lis 1t vanitys 1t is an old
habit. / have never known man
who did not indulge this habit. Even
men who have no hair to run their
fingers through, men whose heads
are as bald as billiard balls, will
brush their hands over their heads
when they lift their hats. If the
men simply wanted to smooth their
tousled hair, of course, this would
afford ample explanation Of the habit.
But why should man who has no
hair on his head do the same thing?
II is not a sufficient answer to say
that such a man may have had a
full suit of hair at one time, and that
It IS simply a matter of habit con
tracted under different conditions.
As a rule men are unconscious Of the
fact They do not know why, how
or when they run their hands over
their heads But they all do it just
the same. Go into a courtroom, or
at any place where men congregate,
and where It is necessary for them
to remove their hats, and watch
them. You win observe that every
man will 60 through the same per-
formance. It seems to be perfect
ly natural thing for them to do. My
own conclusion is that It IS an eyi-
dence Of vanity. A man wants his
hair to be just so. Originally. prob
ably Il was simply matter Of tidi-
ness. But it has grown into an act
Of vanity. The lawyer, for instance,
II he has enough hair for the pur-
pose, win want bis head to have a
tousled appearance. II gives him q
studious appearance, and leaves the
impression that he has been strug-
Cling with the books. Whatever the
reason the habit is a curious one, and
one which seems to be deep-rooted
in the masculine nature"

II is just about twenty years
now since Ed Greer became
owner Of the a infield Courier
And every true newspaper man
will understand perfectly well why
he cannot sell it-And will nonor
him because he cannot.

A MUSICIANS BRAIN.
Extraordinary Activity Of the Fac
uIties Necessary in Playing
some Pieces.

In the course of lecture at the
conference Of musicians in Dublin
ireland, some interesting particulars
and some astonishing statistics were
given relatively to the amount Of
work accomplished by the brain and
nerves in piano playing, says the Sci
entifc American. A pianist in view

Not long ago the Indian bureau is
sued an order that all the reservation
Indians should have theirhair cut. The
decree provoked so much opposition
that il was finally rescinded. Now an
other change is planned which can
hardly be expected TO meet with any
less vigorous antagonism--a change
from distinctly Indian to more com
mon Anglo-Saxon names. The reason
assigned is that Indian names are pure
