How to Treat the Hair.

The brush for use should be stin. The

Its use is to cleanse the scalp and hair
Upon hair that is well-cared for it is rare
ly necessary to use a comb. Children. and
more particularly boys. who are left to
their own devices. frequently have very
unsightly hair. coarse. stubby aid rebel

Is seldom or never used. The condition
OF child's hair is really an index to the
amount of care and attention 1t receives:
"a neglected child rarely has attractive
hair. Physicians advise keeping a child's
hair short until its seventh or eighth
year. because II is a drain upon the nutri-
ton OF the body which is required for

the finer it is. II little girl is in good
health and well nourished, the hair should
be allowed to grow after the eighth year.
A comb should never touch an infants

The folly OF stalking the fortunes OF
the Bank of the United States against
the popularity of General jackson at the
polls was quickly enough demonstrated.
It was much easier for the mass Of
men who now held the votes Of the
country to believe the Bank q dangerous
and corrupt monopoly than to under
stand the arguments Of statesmen who
argued Of its services to the government
and to commerce.
They recognized General jackson as =
man of their own instincts. and deemed
those instincts a sure enough guide in
politics. Statesmen might approve Of
the Bank, but the people thought OF 1t
only to suspect it. and preferred General
jackson to all the statesmen the Bank
could muster to its standards.
A second time they chose General Jack
son President. He interpreted their votes
to mean a deliberate verdict against the
Bank-a command to destroy 1t: and its
fate was sealed.
The President proceeded with charac-
teristic promptness and directness.
He first turned to Congress Oecem-
ber 1S32), the very Congress which had
passed the vetoed bill and asked for an
investigation. to ascertain whether 1t
was still safe to leave the deposits of
of its mismanaGement and probable in
solvency.
No one but General jackson and a
handful Of politicians about him sert-
ously questioned the good management
of the Bank or for a moment doubted
it's solven,y. even then. with its char
ter evidently doomed: and the House
very emphatically declared that in its
opinion the deposits were safe.
General Jackson. accordingly. de-
termined to act without Congress and
on his own responsibility. He resolv-
ed that the Bank should no longer be
given the custody of the public funds.
The statute under which the Bank
was incorporated conferred the power
to act in that matter. not upon the
President. but upon the Secretary OF
the Treasury.
The President therefore wrought his
will upon the Treasury Department
Mr.. McLane, whom he knew to be
favorable to the Bank. he transferred
frc.u the secretaryship Of the Treas
ury to the secretaryship of State. ap-
pointing Mr.. Edward Livingston. then
Secretary o, State. minister to France.
and putting Mr. William j. Duane, OF
Pennsylvania, who was known to be
an opponent of the Bank. in charge OF
the Treasury Department
Mr.. Duane showed unexpected scru-
pies. and declined, out of a mere sense
at duty. to make way for the execution

Of the Presidents radical plan. He was
dismissed. therefore. within four
months Of his appointment. and the
Treasury was put into the hands of
Mr.. Roger B. Taney. OF Maryland. the
Attorney General whose views the
President knew to be- his own (Sep-

An order from Mr.. Taney forthwith d.
rected (September 80 that the revenues
thereafter accruing should be deposited.
not with the Bank OF the United States,
but with certain State banks selected
by the Secretary for the purpose. and
that the balance of the government In
the Bank of the United States. then
nearly ten millions. should be drawn
upon for the governments expenses un-
til exhausted.
The thing was done at infinite hazard
OF financial panic. The Bank was Obliged
to curtail its loans very sharply and At
once. in order to bear the drain, which
was to be offset by no replenishment:
there was immediate distress in tho
money market, a sudden nutter of credit:
and only the sound condition of business
at the moment prevented crisis and
disaster.
The President spoke of the matter in
his annual message with his usual in
trepid frankness: took the whole re-
sponsibility for what had been done upon
himself. and justified it.
No one whose opinion was of any
weight in such a matter had approved
Of the removal Of the deposits: his own
cabinet had been opposed to II. as both
urwise and of doubtful legality. and
had united with Mr.. Duane in trying to
turn him from his purpose: but he had
gone his way without pause, hesitation.
or excitement, like a man convinced and
confident.
He believed that the bank had gone
into politics to prevent his reelection, in
1s23 IL never before. Its directors admit
ted that large sums had been spent out
of its funds for pamphlets. for speeches,
for every legitimate means OF agitation
in the campaign. which 1t knew 20 be a
struggle for its life; and the President.
who. with Mr.. Clay as ally for the nonce.
had forced 1t thus to meet him in tho
field OF party action. now declared that
the issue had come to this. whether
the people Of the United States were to
govern through representatives chosen
by their unbiased suffrages. or whether
the power and money of q great corpora
ton were to be secretly exerted to in
fluence their judgment and control their
decisions
He made no scruple of the law In the
case, deeming law meant for the serv.
ice OF the country.
