SEWING ONE SEAM FOR is YEARS.

THE ease with which people a

interesting work, no matter how mo-
n~otonous it is, may be seen every day
in any shoe factory" says a gentleman
connected with this st. Louis industry.
In a shoe factory the division of la
Dor is carried to the utmost possible
extent. AS a rule one operative per-
forms n operation and no more.
There is one woman in our employ
who for fifteen years has sewed the
seam which begins at the right of the
eyelets, runs to the top, then around
and down on the other side. The ma
chine works so rapidly that she actu-
ally spends almost as much time in
picking up and laying down the shoe
and adjusting it to the machine as is
required to do the sewing, and this
work she keeps up day after day dur.
ing all the working hours. One might
suppose the monotony of the task
would wear on her health and spirits.
but it does not seem to do anything OF
the kind. She is one of the most cheer
full women in the factory Globe

FINE SPUN COTTON.

Sea Island cotton is the best kind
said a S|outherner. ut is finer and
silkier than any other cotton in the
world. A pound Of it can be spun into
ALTO miles of thread.
For an experiment once in the Eng
lish town ofManchester, a skilled spin
ner spun a pound of Sea Island cotton
into a single thread 1000 miles long.
"Then for another experiment he
took another pound of cotton and spun
it into as many hanks as he could get,
He got 1000 hanks in all, and the
yarn in each measured $40 yards,
Thus out of a pound of cotton 477C
miles of yarn was produced. This
yarn, though, was too fine to be of any
practical utility. philadelphia Bulle

VIOLIN AS A HAIR REsToRER.

1t is now a scientifically proved
fact that music exercises a great infiu-
ence on the growth of the hair. 1t is
with good reason that great musicians,
such as Paganini, List and Paderews-
XII, are represented with a growth of
hair which Absalom might have en-
We'd.
Science has proved that stringed in
struments have a favorable influence
on the growth of the hair, while brass
instruments act in the opposite direc-
ton. Every one has probably OBJ
served that a bald v%iolinist is as rare
as a bald horn player is common.
Wood instruments, such as the flute,
seem to have no pronounced influence
either way.-Paris Paper.

ORIGIN OF THE CRAVAT.
At First a Wide Neck Band Worn by
Austrian Cavalrymen.

While every man wears a cravat,
there is probably not one in a thou
sand who could, in an offhand way,
tell you how it came about that men
first placed such an ornament about
their collar.
The word cravat came into our Ian
guage about 1886. Prior to that year a
feature of the uniform of the Austrian
cavalry was a wide band of coarse
linen worn in folds around the neck
under their short Hussar jackets. This
cavalry organization was called the
"cravate," it's members being styled
the "Cravates."
Later, in the seventeenth century,
France recruited a regiment of caval-
ry adopting for it the uniform of the
Austrian regiment recruited in Gro
alta, calling it the Royal Cravattes.
Later in England the word %"cravat'
was applied to a neckerchief.
After the battle Of steamkirk in
Flanders, in 1892, an English officer
brought home the "steamkirk," a long.
flowing neckscarf edged with fine Elem.
ish lace, the ends of which were drawn
through a buttonhele of enormous
size. The neckwear of today is clear.
ly traceable to the steamkirk and the

fight for the championship has been

Cubs never had a look in for first place
but it has been very even contest be-
tween the other three. 1t looks as If
the Senators had a cinch on the flag
until the Tigers ate them up for three
straight games on Monday night.
Capt. Chandler deserves great credit
for putting the team in the position
they are, having pulled two games out
OF the five in the eleventh hour when
all odds were against him.
The Senators have turned out well
and as they have bunch of bowlers il
was only by the hardest kind of work
they have been beaten.
The score shows the teams very even
ly matched. The Cubs have played In
hard luck. They have the highest
team average of any of the four.
The Quakers will probably end in
third place. BY taking the remaining
six games they will still be in third
place II the Senators lose the re-
manning six games they will be tied

This has been very successful
