HABITS OF THE HAIR.
A prematurely bald physician in Thirty-
fifth street was asked a number of ques-
tions about the growth and habits of the
hair.
“In the first place,” he said, “do you
know what hair is anyway ‘1’”
“Only in a general way, perhaps."
“Then let me tell you in a word. Itis an
elongated epidemic appendage. Its es.
sential structure consists of an assemblage
of epidermic cells, at the bottom of a flask
shaped follicle in the substance of the skin,
supplied with blood by vessels distributed
to its walls.”
“Canhairbe made to grow on a bald
head i"
“Not as a rule. In debilitated persons
the hairs sometimes fall out spontaneously,
or with slight assistance, and if the bulb
alone comes away, and the sheath and
germ remains behind, they are, capable of
reproducing the hair, under proper 'treat—
ment or favorable circumstances. The
short and pointed hairs on thescalp of old
people, show that new shafts are constantly ‘
forming. The nutrition of hair is effected
through vessels which are in contact with
their tissue, without entering into their
structure, so that causes infecting the gen-
eral health-occluding the health of the
skin, affect also “ hair."
"I
if by-
. . -. .uvhld‘l and
.4...“ ma climate foreign to the
race."
“Is there a greater disposition to grey-
ness in this country than in others i"
“Well, some well informed people think
that it is about the same in all civilized
countries; but, if there is any difference, it
is because of the hurried and nnhealthful
habits of life and mental exercise among
Americans i"
“What is the chemical action which pro-
duces gray hair 1"
"Accurately speaking, that’s one of those
things that no fellow can find out.»~ The
color of the hair depends partly on the pres
ence of pigment granules, and partly on
the existence of minute air spaces, which
cause it to appear dark by transmitted
light. InAlbinos and gray-haired persons
this coloring matter is simply absent."
“Is it the case that hair may, from ex-
treme fright or other strong emotions, turn
white, as is said, in a single night i"
“It isan undoubted fact. Just how the
change takes place is a matter of conject-
ure. But it may perhaps be explained .by
some chemical action upon the oily color-
ing matter. This ~0in matter would be
withdrawn from the hair under conditions
of cold, debility, or insufiicient food."
“Does gray hairs then become dead ?”
“Not by any means. The loss of vitality
does not necesarily follow the loss of color,
for gray hair often grows vigorously. For
that matter, hair will grow after the body’s
death. One of the causes of premature
.~ ,l‘
baldness and grcyness is tightly fitting and .
unyielding hats.”
“Are any of the thousand and- one pre-
parations for restoring the hair- of any -
value 1’"
“Topics and stimulating applications are
sometimes beneficial. When the hair is
thin and falls out easily, shaving the scalp
willoften produce a thicker, firmer, an
darker growth."——N. Y. Sim. ‘

UNDERSTANDINQMEN’S NATURE'S.
About mid afternoon yesterday a citizen
who pulls down the scales at one hundred
and ninety-six pounds descended the first
flight of stairs beyond the Post Office in
just the same manner that a bag of cats
would have chosen, and when he brought
up at the foot he was in no frame of mind
to chip in anything for the heathen in
Africa. The first citizen who arrived on
the spot knew what his duty required of
him on such an occasion, and he smilingly
remarked: -
“ I don’t believe you can improve on the
old way. ”
The second citizen passing was in a hur-
ry, but he knew that he must halt and in-
quire :
“Like that any better than coming down
the way the rest of us do? ”
The third citizen had business at the Post
Office, but he turned aside, cleared his
throat, and remarked :
“ Evidently fell down stairs! Curious
how it sets the blood to circulating. Some
of you had better see if his nose is broken—
good-bye.”
There was a fourth spectator, and he
slowly entered the doorway, bent over the
victim, and remarked:
“I’d have given a dollar to see him come
down! He’s one of the sort who bump
every stair."
The fifth man was about to add his mite
when the victim rose up. His elbows were
skinned, his nose barked, his coat torn and
his back sand-papered the whole length,
but he was a man who had traveled. He
knew that everybody in the crowd was
hoping to see him jump up and down and
shake his fists, and paw the air, and to hear
him declare that he would lick all the men
who could be packed in a ten-acre lot, and
therefore he brought a sweet smile to his
face, lifted his hat like a perfect gentleman,
and limped up stairs with the bland rc-
mark :
"Stubbed my toe as I came in the door,
you know, and came near falling in a heap.”

AN ENGLISH TRAVELER.
The Old World rivals America for oddity
in the matter of names of cities. We have
Ypsilanti, Kalamazoo, Yuba Dam, Kokomo
and Bloomington, but over the water they
have some city names more suggestive and
unique. From an English exchange we
learn the following highly amusing episode :
An Englishman was lately obliged to travel
in Ireland—a duty he approached with fear
and trembling. " flis affrighted senses were
startled on hearing a fellow passenger in the
railway carriage remark to another: “ I’m
just after bein’ over to Kilpatrick.” “And
I,” replied the other, “ am afther bein’ over
to Kilmsry." “What murderers they are,”
thought the Englishman. “ And to think
that they talk of their assassinations so pub-
licly.” But the conversation went on.
“ And fhare are you goin’ now ? " asked as.
sassin No. 1. “I’m goin' home and then to
"Kilmore," was No. 2’s reply. The English-
man’s blood curdled. “ Kilmore, is it? ”
added No. 1. “ You’d better be comin’
along wid me to Kilumaule.” It is reported
that the Englishman left the train at the
next station—Bloomington Eye.
mm ILLUMINATI.
The word "illuminati".means “those
who are enlightened." It was a name
originally given to persons of the early
Church who had received baptism. After
they had been baptised a lighted taper
was given them, as a symbol of the faith,
grace, and enlightenment they had re-
ceived by that sacrament. _ Various
societies were formed in the course of
ages, whose members supposed they
were more enlightened than their fellow-
beings, and therefore took the name of
“Illuminati."' In modern times associa-
tions were formed ’in Europe for the pur-
pose of promoting social and political re-
forms. Some of ‘these took the name
of “Illuminati,” and expected to raise
men and society to perfection by their
theories, Louis, Napoleon, for several '
years'beforo‘ the French revolution of
1848, was -in the habit Oijoiningallthe
rebellious and reformatomisocieties to
which "he could ' " admittance, and
doubtless became a member of the
modern Society of the Illuminati.

WILL MCDONALD, 2542 Dcarborn St. Chicago,
gratefully acknowledges a cure of Salt Rheum on
head, neck, face, arms, and legs for seventeen
years; not able to walk except cnhands and knees
for one year; not able to help himself for eight
years; tried hundreds of remedies; doctors pro-
nounced his case hopeless; permanently cured by
Duticura Resolvent (blood puriller) internally, and
Cutlcura and Cuticura Soap (the great skin cures)
externally. '
.Cnas. .Houonron, Esq., lawyer, 28 State St,
Boston, reports a case of Salt Rheum under his 0b-
sei'vatlon for ten years, which covered the patient s
body and limbs, and to which all known methods
of treatment had been applied without benefit,
which was completely cured solely by the Cuticura
Remedies, leaving a clean and healthy skin.
1“. Ii. Dunks, Esq., Detroit, Mich, suffered un-
told tortures from Salt Rheum, which appeared on
his hands, head and face, and nearly dcstroycd his
eayes. After the most careful doctoring and a con-
sultation of physicians failed to relieve him, he
used the Cutlcura Remedies, and was cured, and
has remained so to date.
Mr. J oux TBEIL, Wilkesbarrc, Pa, writes :-
I have suifered from Salt Rheum for over eight
years, at times so bad that I could not attend to my,
business for weeks at a time. Three boxes of Cut~'

WAS" ING'I'IIN.
In civilas in mililary life, Washington
was pro-eminent among his contemporaries
for the clearncss and soundness of his judg-
"meul, for his perfect moderation and self-
control, for the quiet dignity and indom-
itable firmness with which he pursued every
path which he had deliberately chosen. Of
all the great men in history he was the most
invariably judicious, and there is‘ scarcely a
rash word or action or judgment recorded
of him. Those who knew him well noticed
that he had keen sensibilities and strong
passions; but his power of self-command
never failed him, and no set of his public
life can be traced to personal caprice, ‘ am-
bition or resentment. In the despondeney
of long-continued failure, in the elation of
sudden success, at times when his soldiers
were deserting by hundreds and when ma-
lignant plots were formed against his repu-
tation, amid the constant quarrels, rivalries
and jealousies of his subordinates, in the
dark hour of national ingratitude, and in
the midst of the most universal and intoxi~
eating flattery, he was always the same
calm, wise, just, and single-minded man,
pursuing the course which he believed to be
right. without fear or favor or fanaticism;
equally free from the passions that spring
from interest and from the passions that
spring from imagination. He never acted
on the impulse of an absorbing or uncalcu-~
lating enthusiam, and he valued very Whly
fortune, position and reputation; but at
, the command of duty he was 'ready to risk
and sacrifice them all. He was in the
highest sense of the words a gentleman and
. a man of'honor, and he carried into public
‘ life the severest standard of private morals.
It was at first the constant dread of large
sections of the American people that if the
old Government were overthrown they
would fall into the hands of. military adven-
turers, and undergo the yoke of military
despotism. It was mainly the transparent
integrity of the character of Washington
that dispelled the i fear. It was always
known by his friends, and it was soon ac-
knowledged by the whole nation and:by the
English themselves that in Washington
America had found a leader who could be
induced by no earthly motive to-tell a false-
hood, or to break an engagement, or to
commit any dishonorable act. Men of his
moral type are happily not rare, and we have
all met them in our experience ; but there is
scarcely another instance in history of such
a man having reached and maintained the
highest position in the convulsions of civil
war and of a great popular agitation—A

ABOUT ELECTRICITY-
Faure’s success in constructing an ap-
paratus for the storage of electricity prom-
ises to lead to a complete revolution in the
application of motive power. It has been
recognized as a fact that the storage of
electricity was possible, and in a small
and temporary way the problem was solved
many years ago. But the practical appli-
cation of the principal did not come about
until little more than a year ago. The
greatest test of Faure’s invention was af-"
forded by the recent experiment in several
boxes charged with electricity placed on
board the ocean steamer Iabrador, the re-
sult of which, well known, was satisfactory
beyond anticipation. Nothing could be
simpler than the construction of the appar-
atus. A sheet of lead, perforated with
small holes, is seated with red lead on both
sides, and against each face is laid a sheet
of parchment. The plate is then sewed in
a cloth jacket, one corner being left bars
for the purpose of cennecting the plates to
establish a metallic circuit. Fourteen of
these plates are inclosed in a wooden case,
they are arranged in voltaic piles, and the
"positive and negative poles by a metal strip
connection with the box. The plates are
covered with acidated water, and the appar-
atus is ready for use. '
The interesting feature of this bottled
force is its general utility, the possibility of
applying it’to any mOvable machine as a
motor. It promises to solve the problem of
rapid transit in cities along street car-ways,
as it can be attached to vans ' and, operated
at a comparatively trifling cost. In railway
travel any desired speed can be obtained,
as it will be possible to propel a locomotive
at the rate‘of 200 miles an hour. The in-
troduction of this perfected principle will
be of the greatest importance to the busi-
ness interests of this and' other countries,
and its application does not seem to be very
remote. —IMcr-Ocean.
TOLD IN HIS OWN WAY.
A colored man named Bob. Tompkins
was on trial last week before an Austin
justice for assault. Old Uncle Mose was
one of the leading witnesses for the State.
The main point was whether or not Tomp-
kins had given any provocation to bring on
the row.
“Now, just tell this jury all you kno
about the afiair,” said the justice. ’
“Kin I tell do jury allI knows in my own
way ?” asked old Mose.
“Yes, tell the jury what you know in
your own way."
Old Mose turned solemnly to the expect-
ant jurymen :
“Gem’mens ob de jury, you am do mean-
est-lookin' crowd eber I seed—"
“Stop,” howled the attorney for the
State.
“Your Honor will incarcerate the witness
for contempt of court 1" howled the attor-
ney for the prisoner. '
asked the Court to protect the jury from
insult. /
“Witness, if you insult the jury again I
shall certainly resort to extreme measures.”
“I’m not gwine ter consult nobody of you
don’t interfere wid me," said old Mose, sub
lenly. -
lmm"
“Gem'mens ob dc jury, you am do mean-
est-lookin' crowd'eber I seed outside ob a
jail—r” . .
The prosecuting attorney jumped up and
down. The foreman of the jury once more
bewled “Your Honor!” , The constable
laid‘his heavy hand on the collar of old
Mose, when the latter calmly repeated to
theiury = . . - .
“You am do? meanestylookin’pcrowd eber I
seed outside ob a jail. fDem was de berry
words do prisoner dar used when he fast
comeinter‘de barroom, and which led to
row." -
The foreman sat down quick. The'attcr-
neys doubled up like jackknive's with sup-
pressed laughter.‘ Bis‘Honor smiled. The
spectators roared; while Old Mose, with a
surprised look of childish innocence, once
more said emphatically to the cowed jury-
men :
“You an dc meanest-lookin' crowd eber
I seed outside ob de jail.”——Tame Siflinga
CASTLE GARDEN IN 1850.
Castle Garden, which has been given 'over
for many years to the invading hordes from
Europe, was at one time (and to the present
elder generation of New Yorkers it must seem
not long ago) the most widely known and
generally frequented place of popular amuse.
meat in the city. It began to be so used in
the days when the lower part of Broadway
and Greenwich street were fashionable, and
I when'the Battery was the favorite promo.
node, the great walk being thronged on fair?
afternoons by elegant ‘folk' who took their
daily needed “ constitutional ” of air and
gossip. At .Castle' Garden were the grand
exhibitions of fire-works; from‘Castle Gar.
den balloons went up in the days when that

Zaandam is rather an important place.
Many ships and boats are built there,‘
many windmills thresh the air with their
white arms, and when they don’t do that
they saw wood and pump water. Its in-
habitants are fearfully rich ;' at every
jaunty villa we came to, our guide stop-
ped us to impress upon us some notion
of its owner’s wealth: “All these rich
people are widmillers." He could speak
tolerable English, so we were spared the
wild pantomime which, when expressive
of four hundred windmills, takes some
considerable room in .a village street.
We we're ferried over the watery avenue,
which seems to be really the main thor-
oughfare of the town. There were the
mills, sure enough, miles of them-some
four, I think—on each side of the way,
as far into the dim distance as the eye
could reach. It looked like a lesson in
perspective, to try for the exact vanish-
ing point.
If any one desires to see Holland from
its windmilly side, let that person by all
means come to Zaandam, and be sur-
feited forever after. They all seemed to
be thriving ancb flourishing, too; and
when a windmilly town does flourish, it
is (born a flourishing point of view)a
thing to remember. It seems to lack re-
posefulnesg, if one cares for it, but for
one of an fictive temperament it is highly
stimulating. It is not the place for a
moony or absentminded person, as there
is always achance of being brained by
the merry wind~sail, unless one is some.
what alert.
There seems to be an unfathomable
variety of individual taste in the matter
of adorning and.decorating some of these
mills. They were nearly all as bright as
paint or wash of every known hue could
make them. None of the aesthetic,
faded-leaf tones here, either, but good,
riotous, roaring reds, greens and blues,
that seemed to sit at once on any mild
talk of "broken tin " or “melting com-
binations." Somehow they seemed to
get the right tone under that delicious
grayoblue haze that hangs so often over
the landscape in Holland. Many mills
had their .little flower-gardens running
down to the river’s edge, and the little
summer-house overhanging the water,
with its inevitable little motto expressive
of the owner's sweet content, like “ Lust
‘ in Bust," which at first sight looks like
bad and improper English. It only
means rustic felicity. Here sit Van
Dunk and friends in the. shades of even-

A little past 9 o’clock on y the morning
of Sept. 13' 1782, the battering ships
opened fire, the King's bastion and the
Orange bastion, on the sea face, being
the principal objects of their attack.
The first mischance was that a brisk.
southwest wind sprang up, and hindered
the co-operation of the gun boats.
Secondly, the English refused to con-
sider'th‘e fire of the land batteries at all,
and directed every gun and man possible
against the battering ships. Means for
heating shot had been prepared, and the
red' hot shot were fired with the same
vivacity and skill as the cold. The
Spanish prisoners afterward complained
bitterly that they had been told that the
fire of hot shot could not be long main-
tained. In the afternoon the enemy was,
in visible trouble. In the evening he
was silenmd, and by the early morning
of the 14th eight out of the ten ships
were in flames. The remaining two took
fire subsequently, and the 14th was
passed by the'naval brigade in rescuing
the remains of the crews under a sullen
fire from the batteries upon the isthmus.
Some slight daniag’e had been doneto
the fortifications, but the loss of the gar-
rison was only 16 killed and 68 wounded.
They had had only 96 guns in action,
.and had fired more than 8.300 rounds.
The superiority of guns on shore over
shipping, both of the old type, was never
more decisively shown. In the first
moment of angry disappointinent the
Spaniards wished toattempt the garrison
by a general assault from sea and land.
Fortunately for them they were over-
ruled by the Duke de Crillon, who re.

until the peace in 1783, active operations
were at an end. One more extraordinary

. night toa point close under the north-
; eastern part of the rock, where the guns
of the garrison could barely touch them,
and instructed to mine the place. This

blow the face of a mountain into the air
by a gallery at its feet had actually been
