IIOW THE HAIR IS CUT. ,
Parting with Their Halr-Feml-
nine Craze for Short Hair.
Tho craze among the ladies for
wearily the hair short is becoming
general, and is spreading all the j
country over. It has already become
very popular in Hochester, anil now
the most slviisli veunj: ladies in the
city are parting with their raven and
golden tresses. There was a time
when it was considered somewhat
"fast" for a lady to wear her hair
short, hut since Miss Cleveland, the
President's sister, the present mis
tress of the White House, and, by
common courtesy, the "first lady in
the land," wears her locks shorn
quite short and advocates the custom
on the grounds oi comfort, conven
ience, and health, it has become the
style. Time was, too, when a short
haired lady wa3 o rare that her ap
pearance in pulilii places attracted
general attention. But that was a
good while ago. 'flic prominent hair
cutters arc becoming quite proficient
in cutting U12 hair of their rapidly
increasing lady patrons. Some in
teresting ami strange scenes are now
seen in the cily hairdressers' estab
lilunents and barber shop3.
"A handsome young lady, just
from hoarding school, came into my
shop on Tuesday and said she wanted
her hair cut just like Miss Cleve
land's," aid a prominent barber.
"She had a picture of. the President's
sister for im to look at; and with
the .suggestions given by her com
panion, who had seen Min Cleve
land, and with tho aid of the pho
tograph, I cut and trimmed her hair
to her complete satisfaction. Oh, I
don't know who or what started the
style. Perhaps Miss Cleveland had
something to do with it, but I am in
clined to believe that Miss Maudo
Granger, Miss Dora Wiley, and other
actresses and singers who aro great
favorites with women, started tho
style here. Of course it helps our
business, but leaving all selfish rea
sons aside, is it not tho most rea
sonable ciaze that has recently como
into style? Why, you have no idea
what it constant trouble a heavy
head of hair is to a woman. It has
to be dressed two or three times a
day, and this takes up a great deal
of a woman's time. With long and
heavy hair, it is difficult for a lady to
keep her scalp clean and healthy."
" What do the ladies do witlijheir
shonrtre"sses?"
"They take theraaway with them.
Some o't them bring old corset boxes
for this purpose, and when no box of
this shape is handy I do up the hair
in a paper."
"Do they sell it?"
"I don't know. I don't believe
many of my customers have, for
theyhave invariably exhibited moro
of a fondness for the hair than they
would for the money they derive
from the sale of it. No, I think
they take it home and keep it.
When it becomes stylish to wear the
hair long again they will have
switches made of it.
"Yes, we have some queer scenes
in our shopB now," continued the
hair cutter.
"A voung lady who comes to have
her locks cut oft" always brings a lady
companion with her, and sometimes
they bring two or three. Their con
versation while I am at work would
make you laugh. A girl was in here
with her mother the sother day and
had her hair cut quite short. It waJ
the first time the shears had ever
touched the girl's hair, and she shook
with fear when I began aud she felt
the cold steel on her neck. Two
sisters were here one day last week,
and when I cut oiF the hair of one the
tears ran down the cheeks of the
other like rain drops. Queer creatures
these women, aren't they ? "
"Is there any particular style- in
cutting ladies' liair now? "
"Well, the most of those who havo
been here have had their hair cut
very short on the back of the !i-ad
indeed, almost as close as young men
wear their hair and moderately good
length on top. They want it long
enough on top to frizz, or curl, or to
wearin a bang." Rochester Demo
crat. An Artificial Velesas.
It was formed spontaneously at the
Macungie furnace, in Lehigh County,
Pa., on the top of a car of melted iron
cinders. As the extreme crust of the
slag cooled, and consequently con
tracted, the interior gases, cramped
for want of room, burst out at the
surface in jets and spurts as in a
natural volcanic eruption, and pro
portionately quite as high, gradually
forming the frustum of an irregula'r
cone, with an opening in the center
from bottom to top. Through this
opsning the melted matter was forced
up from the mass below, running
over at the top of the cone on all
sides and, dripping downward, cooled
into beautiful stalactical forms. The
height of the cone is twenty inches,
outside diameter at bottom fifteen
inches, and at the top five inches.
Its growth occupied half an hour,
lis weight is ninety pounds. This is
a good illustration of the manner in
which volcanic peaks are supposed
to be naturally formed, confirming
the theory that, as the crust of the
earth contracts by cooling, the inte
rior gases and melted matter requir
ing more room, mountain ranges are
raised, and, at the weaker points,
openings are forced, from which the
imprisoned matter escapes and vol
canic peaks and craters are formed,
just as in the specimen above de
scribed. Lancaster (Pa.) New Era.

A Child. Devoured by a Dos.
News has just arrived in town of a
horrible death which occurred across
the Brazos River, east of this place,
on the farm of Dr. Eoss, a few-raonths-old
negro child being literally
devoured by a dog. The family left
the house, leaving their baby ih the
cradle. In a short time the father
had cause to return for something,
when on entering the house a horrible
and sickening sight met his gaze.
Tho dog had pulled the baby out of
tho cradle, and had him on the floor
face down. The dog looked up un
concerned on the entry of tho father,
and again began tearing the flesh of
the child. Tho father kicked the
brute off, and on examining the child
found that the dog had torn away and
eaten all of the flesh and great mus
cles of the thighs and buttocks, leav
ing the bones glistening in a most
horrible manner. The little victim
lived until the next day, when death
relieved it of its sufferings. The dog
was killed immediately. Sealy,

Saratoga Village Itollglon.
Deacon Knapp has been the main
pillar of the Saratoga Methodist
Church for over 40 years. Every
Sunday morning has "found him in
the center pew of the old church.
One month ago the old deacc 1 died.
A few weeks after the pastor called
on the deacon's son, Ben. Ben had
not "experienced the wrath to como"
like his father, and had left the old
pew vacant.
"Now, Ben," said the pastor, "for
over 40 years your father has occu
pied that samo old pew in the center
of tho church. He has enjoyed my
sermons all these years, and I hope
to see you in the same old pew."
"But father and I are different,"
said Ben. "It would be harder for
mo to sit here than for father."
"Why harder for you, Ben?"
asked the clergyman.
"Because," said Ben, "father, you
know, was deaf."

24 were experiments in cases of sus

termine the action of fungi on fish,
and five were on the effects of abso

Tired and Languid Women.
How many women there are of
whom these words are true: "They
feel languid and tired, hardly able to
hear their weight on their feet, the
bloom all gone from their cheeks, ir
ratable and cross without meaning to
be, nerves all upset, worried with the
children, fretted over littlo things, a
burden to themselves, and yet with
go acute disease." "What a pity it is.
