A Beautiful Sentiment

Mayor Mcclellan Of New York
gave expression to the following
beautiful sentiment at the recent
annual celebi alton of the South
ern Society of that city:
eve live in an age of gold, if
not in golden age. There exists
a tendency to measure all human
activity, all learning, all literature
and all art in the terms of dollars
and cents. We boast of our mod
ern civilization, and in the pride
and strength of our youth assume
that it will last forever. And yet
whether or not it is to endure be.
yOnd the allotted span Of its pre-
decessors depends upoa the spirit
of the age itself. We people OF
the twentieth century. have it in
our own hands whether this civil
cation of ours shall prove to be
Only the brilliant afterglow of the
gorgeous sunset of the Renais
sauce or the dawn Of a bright, new
day In the struggle of mankind to
reach its God.

Curina the Drink Habit.

Norwegian authorities have con-
ceived an original method of curing
drunkards of their vice. The pa
tent is placed under lock and key,
and his nourishment consists in
great part of bread soaked in pot
wine. The first day the drunkard
eats his food with pleasure, and even
on the second day he enjoys it. On
the third day he finds that it is al
ways about the same thing, and on
the fourth day he becomes impa-
tient. At the end of eight days he
receives the wine with horror. The
disgust persists, and this homeo-
pathic cure is said to give good re-
suits.

Japanese Women's Hair.

The japanese women have certain
methods Of arranging their hair
whereby a person can tell at once
whether any woman whom he sees
is maiden who desires to get mar
ried or widow who is inconsolable
or one who is willing to be consoled
if the proper sutton presents him
self. Young girls arrange the hair
in fro 1t in the form of fan or but
'n1y and adorn it with silver or
colored ornaments. Widows who are
looking for second husbands fasten
their hair at the back of the head
by means of tortoise shell pins, and
widows who are resolved to remain
forever faithful to their departed
spouses cut their hair short and
wear no ornaments in it.
