GLOSSY Locks row Favored.

There was time when fluffy locks,
the sort that the noyelists could refer
to as being blown about the heroine's
face in fragrant strands" had entire
ly vanquished those former ideals
which obtained in the days when our
grandnothers primly parted hair was
immortalized by the daguerrotypist
Nowadays, however, the glossy head
has regained its former prestige, and
more than ever before must locks be
smooth and shining Brilliantine-
that oil so often poured on troubled
fWaves-is being riyaled in effect by
an old practice revived. In every
smart French hairdresser's shop are
lengths of fine, supple silk to be seen
IN constant use With these the hair
is stroked and rubbed until it shines
with an almost metallic briIliance,
quite different from the smooth shine
given by brilliantine AS well as Civ
ing satiny surface to the hair it is
said to be most beneficial, for silk
is full of electricity and this promotes
the growth Of the hair.

LONG WARS DUE TO WHISPERS.
Trivial incident Led to Three Hun
dred Years Of Fighting.

For ages boards were the delight Of
ancient beauties. The sight Of a
shaved chin excited sentiments of hor-
ror and aversion To obey the injuac-
tons of his bishops, Louis VII of
France cropped his hair a Ia pompa.
dour aud shaved of his luXuriant
whiskers Eleanor of AquHane, his
coLscft found him with this uncom-
mon appearance very ridiculous and
very contemplate. She reyenged her
self by becoming something more than
a coquette. The king obtained di-
vorce. She then married the count Of
Anjou, who shortly afterward NKcend-
ed the French throne, and gave him
as her marriage dover the rich prov
inces of Poitou and Guienne; and
this was the origin Of those wars
which for 500 years ravaged France
and which cost the French nation
100000 men. All of which, probably,
had never taken place if Louis VII.
had not been so rash as to shave of
his whiskers, by which he made him
self so disgusting to the fair Eleanor.

SCUM american inns.

Z A traveller who recently returned to
Philadelphia was narrating some Of
his experiences in South America at
a banquet of globe trotters. He had
sBirted the entire coast Of South
America and had found the inns or
hotels in most sections very poor, SO
bad were they In Peru, he said. that
one American who had been thrown
into Jail pending some dispute over
his papers and after his release had
ssught the hotel Of the town, returned
the next day to the jail and begged
that he might be taken in.
The most curious sign he had seen
was IN the window Of restaurant in
Buenos Ayres, which read: American

ion, by the use of the sash. The
seasons eccentricities in dress make
1t possible to secure much more va.
riety in the wearing of sashes than
usual, for whereas it was once obi
gatory to have the hanging ends of
the sash in the back they are now
worn at the back, sides, fronts or mid
way between any of these p Is. ac-
cording to the taste Of the wearer.
The deep girdle, crossed at the back,
then ends being carried to the front.
tied a little to the left and then left
to hang straight, as shown, is perhaps
the most fashionable style of wearing
the sash. Very supple satin, crepe,
chiffon or some equally soft and
gracefully draping fabric is used for
these sashes.
Black sashes of the sort shown in
the cut are extremely effective when
properly employed, and on black and
white gowns are one Of the most eff
fective features of the trimming. They
are also used on figured and striped
materials which have a touch of black
In them, as, for instance, on many Of
the figured mushns and foulards in
which there is line of black, al
though the color does not enter promi-
nently into the pattern. The Use of

eritely remarked John Q. Fisher, coun-

other day, Ns
Down at Rockport track they used

q fast horse from getting low mark

heat is about to be raced and it is de-
sired to let horse step fast mile
without giving him correspondingly
fast mark the ones on the inside set
to work to get corner on all the
stopwatches about the track Those
stable boys know every man that owns
a stopwatch, just the same as they
know every man who owns a rapid
horse. The boys are sent to the owners
of watches to borrow them, one by
one.
Then after the heat is over there's
nobody to dispute the time. Those on
the inside merely give the time Ay'
about ten seconds or so slower than
it really was, and that's the end Of 1t.
But they're always particular to have

point. Mr.. O'Brien returned from

Mr.. OBrien was hunting at the
Nashoe lake on last Saturday
afternoon and in attempting to pick
up a bird he had shot tipped the boat
over. a small steel affair. The boat
riehted Itself but was filed with water
and would not stand his additional
weight without going to the bottom.
He pushed the boat to the shore OF
the lake, the water at no time beng
over his head, except at few points
where there were narrow holes in the
muddy bottom.
He was fully half a mile from the
shore and upon reaching the Tenant
club house found that he had no
matches with which to light a fire.
He then called to Bud Barhley who
