the sewing machine. The very first

THE ART OF LOOKING QUEER.

why Is It," asked writer In the
Fliegende Blaetter, that when a man
discovers that he is genius he al
lows his hair to grow long, and that
when woman becomes similarly con-
sclous, she has her hair cut shorty
It PROBABLY grows out OF the fact that,
learning that they are different from
others, they wish to emphasize the
fact by some outward distinguishing
mark. The woman who merely l.eeps
house. raises children, supports the
church, tolls for missions. and gives
home entertainments, will wear her
hair In coils. puffs or otherwise piled
upon her head. The female genius
goes to the other extreme. She cuts
hers off at the nape of the neck. So
also the ordinary man, who merely
works for a living, votes and tramps
with a musket II his country calls,
wears his hair short to have 1t out Of
the way. But the genius. thinking
more about himself. sees the value Of
an external sign that he Is not ordi.
