pemocrntic Incompetence.

The Democratic party has gained
control of Indiana three times since
1860. Every time it has added millions
of dollars to the State debt. Three per-
iods since 1860 the Republican party
has had charge of the States affairs.
In each period It has greatly reduced
that debt-more than S12,000,0OO alto
gether-sufficient to have wiped it out
if the Democrats had not added to It
every time they gained control Of the
State. The Republican party has now
been responsible for affairs in Indiana
since 1895, and in that period has paid
off nearly 100000 Of interest bearing
debt. Every cent is now paid except
some bonds which are not matured.
There has been no good reason for this
great debt. 1t is an ugly truth, but it
cannot be lodged, that the debt itself
is a monument to Democracy's incom-
potency and their fiscal mismanage-
notwithstanding

Where False Hair Comes From

Although China is the chief market
for false hair, the finest tresses come
from South Europe. Southern France.
Italy and Italian Switzerland are the
quarry of the hair agent, the converts
of Spain and Italy providing a large
amount of the long coils and tresses
which find their way into British mar
kets. When a girl takes the veil she
parts with all her hair at once. a con-
siderable income being frequently as
sured in this way to the convent an

In the South hair grows fast and
many peasant women make quite a
solid addition to their yearly earnings
by disposing of it at intervals, parting.
perhaps, with all, but one long niece
which, coiled round the head. disguises
the fact that they are denuded of their
long tresses.
1t is in arranging and strengthening
the tresses that the chief difficulties
are encountered, each hair having TO
be seyerally fastened BY its root end
to a band of silk or cord. the ends
being allowed to hang loosely In order
to preserve the natural wave and curl.
