gate damage that he claimed

Mrs. George w. Fairchild. wife of Rep
resentative Fairchild of New York.
Mrs. Fairchild has business ability
which, If she had been a man. would
probably have made her captain of
finance.
With characteristic modesty she
overlooks this fact whenever she is
asked for information regarding her
self, but the truth concerning her may
always be had upon good authority.
This authority is her husband. Rep
resentative Fairchild gives her credit
in large measure for his success as a
business man, Mrs. Fairchild having
for years been familiar with every de-
tail of her husbands large business
interests and having played an i'm
portant part in their development. Mr..
Fairchild advises and consults with
her on all business matters and does
not hesitate to cay that he values her
sagacity and her Judgment as highly
as those OF any man of his acquaint-
ance.

OUR FOREIGN TRADE.

American business is beginning to realize that the
home trade is everything Under protective tailH
system business had been led to believe that consumption

ducing manufacturing concern Now, under revised
tariff SYSTEM and with free trade established IN many
lines business realizes that foreign trade presents spen
did opportunty for growth and development. For this
reason the contemplated establishment OF commercial
agent system by the department OF commerce is OF great
interest to the American manufacturer Secretary he'd
fields idea to place. ultimately at each Of the important
consular diplomatic offices, competent commercial
agent known the commercial attache whose duties

This agent would be in position to gather information OF
much value to American business houses Should manu-
facurer Of machinery for example, wish to learn the pros

necessary would be communication to the commercial

But the agencies would really mean more The re-

Of such system and is likely that the necessary appro

capitals of Europe and South America and or two in
Asia and South Africa The plan has received the indorse
ment of exporters who finding increasingly difficult
to gain information which such governments Germany
and England obtain for their manufacturers and export

An advantage of the system is when its probable
operation is compared with certain activities in the de-

GRAY HAIR.

The old story that the hair of Marie Antonette wife
of Louis XVI grew gray single night the night after
she condemned to lose her head under the sharp blade
of the guotine, is discussed in recent number OF the
Journal Of the American Medical Association The Jour
nal that while is true that her hair gray at her
DEATH her bographs all record that her hair had been
gray long before the time Of her execution The comment
made that quite possible that the change in her hair
while in prison due to the fact that she did not have
to hair dyes and other toilet preparations. Ac
counting for color changes of the hair it explained that
this change is not due to destruction of pigment present
in the hair to bleaching of hairs already formed but
that pigmened hairs fall out and replaced by unpg
mented white Completely pigmented hairs
turn gray They fall out It has also been observed that
the process of pigment formation may during the

they appeal to unconfessed dishonesty, but al
ways to the inherent desire to get something for little
