Microbe Of GRAY Hair,

They have discovered a new mic.
robe in New York and 1t is quite popu.
lar among actors and society women
1t is called the chromophage, its spe-
cial function being to turn the hair
gray at comparatively early age. The
handsome actor who has those white
hairs on his temple that the women
admire 50 is full of the chromophages
Baldheaded men are immune from the
microbes. He only attacks the hair,
and a man without hair need not wor-
ry about the chromophage. For years
II was thought that process OF the
blood killed the coloring matter OF the
air cells but scalpologists in New
York combat that theory. They say
1t is the chromophage. The microbe
does not like heat and for that reason

Is less likely to have gray hair than

VIII Continue Study Abroad.

Comes the news from Paris that an.
other charming belle has deserted
from the ranks of social ambitions,
and will devote herself hereafter to
the pursuit of the muses.. Miss Enid
Shaw, elder daughter of the secretary
of the treasury. who has been abroad
for the past 18 months. will con
tinue her studies at the Scrbonne
with a view of preparing herself for
the chair of literature at her alma
mater, the Cornell college, of Iowa
Miss Shaw took the degree of A.
M. with the first honors In a class
of 40 about three years ago. She
made her debut in Washington the
following winter. but the frivolitles in.
terested her but little. She is a clever
writer of verse, and she Is now taking
an advanced course on the early ro-
nance writings of the Latin tongue
and modern English versifiers.
Miss Shaw is an unusually attrac-
tive girl, with the cordial. pleasant
manner which seems the birthri2ht OF,
the western girl, and is considered
the finest conversationalist in the
younger official set.

WAR ON RABBIT coURslNG.
British Society for Prevention o
Cruelty to Animals Acts.

London.-English authorities are
a stop to the most revolving specie.
of cruelty to animals which, under the
cloak of sport. has been going or
much too long.
Some time ago it was discovered
that on Sundays socalled rabbit
tcoursing. in which gangs of roughs
tortured the little animals, was en-
gagged in regularly every week al
Hounslow and other places. but no in
quiry at the offices of the Society fo,
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals ar
inquirer was told nothing could be
done as rabbit coursing was not con.
sidered Illegal.
However. as the cruel character OF
the sport" indulged in was pointed
out. the sOciety's superintendent deter
mined to make an effort to get at
these participants. Mr.. Polhill. the
society's solicitor. went into the mat.
ter thoroughly and succeeded in dig
ging out two old acts of parliament
one passed 1876 years ago and another
about $50 years old. which was passed
in the reign of Charles l., both OF
which had been forgotten and. for.
tunately. never had been repealed.
The latter provides that no persons.
under any circumstances whatever.
shall assemble outside their own
parishes on Sunday for any sport
whatever. and the other act provides
that people who conduct a place of

liable to a fine of $1,000 for each Of
fense. A place used for rabbit cours-
ing is. SO the society's solicitor con-
tended. a place of amusement under
both these acts.

Latest Fad in Society"

The latest fad in certain eastern so
ciety circles is to be glum and cross.
One phase of this more than usually
absurd affectation takes the form OF
ignoring letters of Introduction and
this lack of consideration has reused
family feuds in several cases. One
wealthy young Italian, who is a men,
Der of one of the best Roman families.
went to Newport this summer with
many letters from prominent persons.
But he has found it impossible to pre-
sent them. 1T Is foolish to expect
anything from social leaders these
days and the stranger who asks to be
received by letter has hard time of
it." said a young man whose letter to
society matron was ignored.

LITTLE THINGS AND BIG.
DiHerentiate Between the Essential
and the Non-Essential.

Little things are often Of great I'M
portance, but when they are so they
are not little. The pinion of watch
wheel, for example, in one sense Is
little, in another sense it Is not so at
ali; for when 1t is not perfectly ad-
justed. the watch is worthless for time
keeping. 1t is not size that makes a
thing little or great, but its relation to
the end for which number of things
are combined. If a thing is essential
II is important. Because so many OF
the people who are always preaching
the Importance of little things fail to
discriminate between the little and the
non-essential, they often make a
wretched mess of the management of
their own and other peoples affairs.
Theoretically. if every factor that con
tributes to Il result is perfect, the re-
suit will be perfect: but practically.
for want of time, strength and oppor-
.unity. the efficient man is compelled
to neglect some things for the sake OF
others; and in order to do this and
yet secure the main end. he has to
discriminate between the essential and
the non-essential. The one who is
thoroughly imbued with the false doc
trine of the Importance of little things.
spends his strength without discrim-
ination. and usually succeeds in miss
ing the main chance-The Watchman.
