“Truth aboveall thing’s.”
FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 25. 1892. ‘
{Entered in the Post-Office as a Newspaper]
HE WAS 80' ACCOMMODATING. '
O
A Few Things That Mrs.
Faun-l for Her Husband to Do.
“ Well, Maria, ” said Goggins, finishing
his breakfast,“ I don’ t have to go to the ‘
office to day, so if you've got any little
Che res you want done just t10t’ em out, ”
and he rolled up his sleeves. “You
women always make a mountain out of
a mole hill,and grunt over nothing. Why,
a man can do up all the work around
a place in less than no time and think
nothing of it.‘ \Vhat shall I begin at?
Bring on your herculean tasks,” and
he struck an attitude.
“ How nice of you, dear,” said his
wife. “ You might break 11p those store
boxes in the woodShed, and sharpen the
hatchet and cut a little kindling, and
then, dear, you can mend the coal box,
and carry up a couple of uckets of
lumps for the kitchen.”
Away he went, whistling like a lark,
returning shortly, triumphant. “ There
you are, Mrs. Goggins,” said -1 he, “ done
up to the queen’s taste.” And he sunk
back in an easy chair and picked up the
morning paper.
“ How good of you, dear,” coocd Mrs.
G—“. ‘ Now if y ou will just hang
those pict1 mass in the par'lo1 and move the
upstahs bureau and take down the spare
room bed and roll the lounge out into
the hall and empty the slop water and
beat the dining room carpet.”
Goggins laid dOWIi the paper slowly
and no whistle was heard as he trudged
up the stairs.
Half an hour later he threw himself
upon the floor with the air of a martyr.
“ There Mrs. Goggins,” said he, “ your
beastly carpet is beaten and I’ve been
Working like a dog.”
“ Thanks, d" it,” said she, with a
ple... ased smile.“ Now won‘t you nail 11p
the trellis 1nd trim the grapes, and tie
up the vines, and transplant that seed
ing peach tree, and saw the dead limbs
off the Seckel pear, and cut- of the suck-
ers coming under the fence from Thomp-
15011.. e plum trees, and sprinkle poison on
the gooseberry bushes?’ '
Goggins eyed his wife with a stern,
harsh glance, stalked out into the yard
muttering, and in a. few moments the
loud voice of an angry man using pro.
fanity floated upon the spring breezes,
mingled with the tasping sound of a
snaggle-toothed saw and the mad thump
of a furiously wielded spade.
“ Where’s my slippers and wrapper?”
he demanded, staggering into the house
somewhat later and splattering perspira-
tion from his grimy brow.
"I don’t remember just where they .
are, dear,” tenderly said his wife, “ but
I will get them for you while you finish
the chores.”
Finish the chores l” howled Goggins.
“For heaven’s sake, madam, is there
anything else to do?”
“Oh, yes; lots, dear? There’s the
dandelions and blue johnnies and bur-
docks to cut out of the grass, and the
sods to be set out in front of the house,
and the back yard grass to cut, and hot
water to be poured down the ant hills,
and moss to pull out of the cracks in the
walk, and the old chicken coop to tear
down, and, and—"‘
He kicked a chair over, strode out of
the house and played base ball in the
bottoms until he got a black eye, a
sprained ankle, two broken fingers and
was carried home on a 'shutter.—Omaha

Music Transmitted by a \Vonde’n Rod.
The following beautiful experiment,
described by Prof. Tyndall, shows 110W
music may be transmitted by an ordinary
wooden rod. In a room two floors be—
neath his lecture room there was a piano,
upon which an artist was playing, but
the audience could not hear it. A rod
of deal, with its lower end resting upon
the sounding board of the piano, ex-
tended upward through the two floors,
its upper end being exposed before the
le ture table. But still not a sound was
heard. A violin was then placed upon
the end of the rod, which was thrown
into resonance by the ascending thrills.
andgtanfily the music of the piano was ,
given out' in the lecture room. A guitar
and harp were substituted for the violin,
and with the same result. The vibra-
tions of the piano strings were commu~
nicated to the sounding board; they
traversed the long rod, were reproduced
by the resonant bodies above, the air
was carved into waves and the whole
musical composition was delivered to
the listening audience.

WHAT THE TROUBLE WAS AND

What Each Has To Say About This
Most Interesting Matter.
Something Never Before Equalled
In Our Experience.
The st01y of each 1s brief, but both
are eloquent with true feeling and grat-
itude, given in thelr own words.
The first, Mrs. E. S. Bogart of the
Baptist Home, 68th street, New York
City. is as follows.
“For eight years I hav1 been con-
stantly under the care of doctors, but
found no relief, n01, from what the
doctors told me. did I expect‘ to get any
better. i was convinced that they did
not understand my case, so I thought I
would rv Dr. Greene’s Neivura blood

been truly woude1f11l.I now feel in
better health than for the last 2-0 years.

“During all this time I had been suf-

kidney and liver complaints, nervous

Mrs. Oliver \Vilsou, Northboro’,

intei esting stories:
“I was suffering r from 11e1wousness,”
she says, “caused by female weakness
and nervous prostration. I was so ner-

vous and weak I could not go up a com-

rest, and was troubled to sleep at
night. I took Dr. Greene’s Nervura
blood and nerve remedy, and have ob-
tained my old elastic step around the
house, to the surprise of my friends.
After creeping round for two years,
hardly able to do anything, it has
proved a boon to me truly. I know of
many others whom it has cured and
who speak most highly in praise of it.”

_ How 1.1.0153- ADORNED THEIR HEADS
N THE 18TH CENTURY.
Some ‘Vonderful Structures In Queen
Elizabeth‘s Tlme—Henddresscs Two
and Three Feet High—Esqulmnu!
and Mojave Indlnns' Styles.
Someone has ventured the assertion
that “ bangs ” and “ Blackwell’s Island ”
are synonymous, since the one originated.
with the other, and the mandates of the
law created both—a "common error, re-
peated so often that it has been com-
monly accepted as a fact. History shows.
however, that “ bangs” existed long
before Blackwell’s Island was discov-
ered. The fair-haired male Franks, and
not the female convicts of Blackwell,
are responsible for the “ bang-up ” style
of eoifiure.
Planche says: “ Long hair was the
distinguishing characteristic of the Ten-
tonic tribes. It was the mark of the‘
highest rank among the Franks, none of
whom but the first nobility and princes
of the blood were permitted to wear it
in flowing ringlets, an exp ress law com-
manding the people to cut their hair
close round the middle of the forehead.”
And this badge of servitude and sign
manuel of plebeianism in one century has
become the essence of style and glass of
fashion in another. The freak of one
age, the fancy of another.
The Esquimau men and women wear
the bang, but it is a fringe of straight
hair unfrettled with hot irons and
crimping pins. The distinguished mark
of the Pueblo Indians is also a “bang.”
Their shocks of long, wiry black hair
are cut straight across the forehead just
above the eyebrows, and worn flowing
in the back, usually with" c. bright- colored
scarf twisted turban fashion about the
head.
In very early days. as now, the hair
was sometimes thin and it had to be cked
- out in various ways to make believe that
nature had been spendthrift to all alike.
About the first description extant of wom- '
an’s hair. speaks of “ plaited locks,”
known as “ Gretchen braids ” to us. To
make these braids seem longer, silk the
color of the hair was braided in. Then they
took to putting the braids in cases of
silk, elongating them with all sorts of.
stufl’, till they looked like umbrellas in
covers. The Chinese pigtail is a modifi-
cation of this style.
Queen Elizabeth had eighty wigs in
her collection, and her cousin, Mary
Queen of Scots, had “ as many as a hun-
dred, ” and among the incongruous pres-
ents made her while confined a prisoner
in gloomy Lochleven, previous to her
being beheaded, wigs were numerous!
Gentlemen who particularly wished to
please their lady friends presented them
with wigs of the latest shade of hair and
newest style of coift‘uring. Fancy a
gentleman of to-day presenting his sweet-
heart the newe t thing in ventilated
bangs or the last idea 1n back hair.
5 The most elaborate and atrociously
hideous hairdressing the world has
known was in vogue at the close of the
eighteenth century. Stev. art, the great
hairdresser, says: “ At no period in the
history of the world was anything more
absurd in headdress worn than at this
time. The body of these monuments of
ugliness was formed of tow, over which
the hair was turned and false hair added,
in great curls, bobs, and ties, and pow-
dered to profusion, then hung allover
with vulgarly large rows of pearl' or
glass beads, fit only to decorate a chan-
delier; flowers as obtrusive were stuck
about this heap of finery, which was sur-
mounted by broad silken bands and great
ostrich feathers, until the headdress of a
lady added three feet to her stature.”
In 1782 it would appear that the
women wore their hair to the play, to
the discomfiture of those who wished to
view the stage.
Another style that was so incompre-
hensibly ugly was the combing of the
hair straight 11p, back and front, over a
cushion a foot high,
The Mojave Indians follow this “lad—
der ”fashion—minus the curls—but for
vastly different reasons. The toilet arti-
cles of the Mojaves are few and simple,
and combs are not enumerated. These
Indians inhabit the Mojave desert, along
the Colorado River in Arizona, :1 place
which Sheridan characterized as a few
degrees hotter than Dante’s Inferno.
When in full dress the Mojave wears
a. string of beads and a bandanna hand-
kerchief. His hair, being particularly
luxuriant and long, and unacquainted
with brush or comb, gets very‘ ‘ lively ” at
times; but the tribe has a sure and sim-
ple recipe for expelling all intruders. A
pasty mush of clay and water is made' ,
with this the head is saturated, the hair
is drawn full length above the head and
then rolled up. When the job is Com-
pleted the hair stands up in full round
pompadour from the face and is cemented
by the mud in a- hard mass. which kills
the vermin, excludes heat and, saves
trouble in arranging the hair each day.
When the summer is ended the Mojaves
soak their heads .till the mass can be
manipulated—Washington Star.
Wan “filling to Change Places.
A burly, weather-beaten tramp re-
cently entered a Harlem bank, and ad-
dressing the urbane cashier, asked for
five dollars.
- “ Five dollars I” exclaimed the cashier,
“ isn’t that rather steep? I should think b
a quarter would be about your size,
wouldn’t it?”
”Well, ” said the tramp, “if you
think you understand this begging busi-
ness better than I do, perhaps we had
best change places. Ifit suits you I’m
agreeable.”——Texas Sittings. “I
