Hon. w. R. Smith, member of
the House of Delegates from Ty-
Ter county, while visiting a Park
.ersburg friend yesterday took oc-
casion to refer to the public
schools of Sistersville and made
the boast that their reputation
for excellence is more than State
wide. 1t seems that every fellow
from Sistersville wants to talk
about education, and is inspired
with the idea that the Greatest
Town on Earth has the greatest
schools on earth. Slstersvllle
stands alone in West Virginia on
two points-the employment OF a
special supervision of the primary
departments, and the successful
manipulation of school savings
bank. The supervisor is a woman
of marked skill in dealing with
the smaller scholars. She directs
the work of other pr mary teach
ers, and has brought out into
bold relief the wonders that can
be accomplished in the first four
years of a chld's school life under
strictly scientific methods. 1t is
stated that over so per cent OF
the pupils enrolled in Sisters
vile are depositors in the school
say 'ngs bank, and what they have
accumulated now runs into the
thousands. The money deposited
bears interest and the school is
thus fostering a habit of saving
that touches directly the practi-
cal, bread-winning side OF life.

CAUSES OF BALDNEss.

The Tight Fitting Hat Makes thd
Scalp n Hotbed of Microbes.
There is every reason to believe says
the New York World. that primitive
man had a thick and abundant head OF
hair and that this natural clothing of
the scalp is diminishing among civil
lized peoples and VIII end by disappears
ing altogether. The cause OF this dis
appearance OF the hair, according to the
doctors, must be sought in the very
conditions OF civilization and in the
customs It has introduced One Of the
customs especially burtful to the hair
is the masculine hat.
The hat produces badness by two
different methods first by creating
about the head an atmosphere which is
fatally warm and moist and which pre-
vents the penetration of the rays on
light that are so fatal TO bacteria; the
hat makes a sort OF improvised hotbed
for microbes and they play an tmpor-
tant role in the production OF badness.
II Il had been desired to foster the ex-
istence Of microbes capable Of living
upon the scalp or in the hair. a more
favorable means for their projections
and multiplication than the hat could
not have been found. Again, the hat
holding its place upon the head solely
by pressure, exerts second pernicious
influence upon the scalp; It congresses
the arteries and the veins; 1t impedea
the circulation OF the blood and conse-
quentiy the nutrition OF the organs
which produce the hair.
AS matter of fact, men would be
very healthy with bare heads. The hair
would be strengthened and would serva
as a hat; 1t would only be necessary
to protect the head against the nays OF
the sun in summer in order to avoid
sunstroke. 1t is true the public imag-
ines that It would catch cold mora
easily, but this is a mistake. From the
hygienic point Of view there are fewer
Inconvenience in going with the head
bare than I'm carrying about upon It q
hothouse for microbes.

Wisdon's Whispers

When a man gets along with his wife
without much dispute he thinks people
know it without being told so.
A woman can make the most direful
threats to-day and forget all about
them Tomorrow.
Some men are as easily moved to
tears as the most sentimental woman.
The smile of some women brings more
cheer than the heartiest laugh of
others.
1t is well to keep an eye on the man
who continually is seeking for a chance
to give am exhibition of his courage.
Women often bring lines to their faces
in the efforts they make in trying to
keep Nnem out.
Some men turn rare financial ability
into channels which are already over
crowded with wrecks
When a woman has succeeded IN re-
forming q man she likes to have others
remind her Of the fact
The man who thinks he is born
Wit usually enjoys a monopoly OF THE
satisfaction IL brings.
A woman who regards the Jealousy
of her husband as an evidence Of his
affection wonders. il other people have

Timely Gossip of Interest 60 the

Hmely Gossip of Interest 20 the
Well Dressed Woman.
In Easter hats there are enough nov
elites to quito al page, and they are
nearly if not quite as fearfully and
wonderfully made as hose Of the
brave days of old when women wore
full rigged ships on their heads.
Probably the most striking and also
becoming is the variation Of the Louis
shapes. The briin in these stands up
sharply above the forehead, being
made sometimes to come forward con
siderably beyond the forehead, and at
other times they are worn so that
they set up quite straight A very
handsome one had brim Of white
chip with a band Of black velvet close
to the crown all around, and the crown
itself was made Of velvet with pom
pom Of black plumes standing forward
in the front. There was no other trim
ming.
Next to these styles come the turban
shapes and the fiat chapeau, with the
trimming so arranged that the hat can
be worn at almost any angle and still
be pretty. One of this style was made
Of pink panne velvet entirely overlaid
with lace. and on the left side. droop-
ing partly to the back and partly to
the side, was pink sweep. 1t was a
very taking creation and was intend
ed for a lady who will wear a cape to
match to a swell function
A hat for young lady was made of
damson colored velvet as TO the fat
brim and the crown, while around the
crown was a perfect wreath of mauve
silk null made Of loops; this stood mp
far beyond the crown. A small bunch
of the loops was set just under the
brm on the left side. Most fat hats
are called sailors. even when the brim
turns up, and they are garnished in
various ways. some very plainly and
others with much of fancy trimming

lThr PomrIo of Chinn.

Probably the best all round fruit In
China is the pomelo. 1t is grown in
the south central and southern prov
inces and is said 10 be the original
citrus fruit. II resembles the grape
fruit of the United States in size, shape,
color and somewhat in flavor. being
sweeter than grape fruit, with less Of
the bitter quality, with flesh more per
fectly separated in the sections and
capable OF being pulled apart and sep
arated from all surrounding sacs or
membranes. The natives cut through
the peel about one-third of the way
from the top. crimping the edge Of the
section all the way round the fruit,
then remove the flesh, tear the section
apart, replace them in the peel and
serve thus divided and prepared. The
fruit is attractive. refreshing. whole
some and comparatively cheap. Gen
orally speaking, the pomelo seems to be
a cross between a shaddock and a
good orange, but II is more hardy than
either II has better keeping qualities
than the orange.
