No toilet can be considered complete without tins most popular and elegant of all hair-dressings. “My hair began turning gray and falling out when.*! was about 2S years of age. I have lately been using Ayer’s Hair Vigor, and it is causing a new growth of hair of the natural color.”— R. J. Lowry, Jones 1’rairie, Texas. “Over a year ago 1 had a severe fever, and when I recovered, my hair began to fail out, and what little remained turned gray. I tried various remedies, but without success, till at last I began to USE Ayer’s Hair Vigor, and now my hair is growing rapidly and is restored to its original color.”--Mrs. Aunie Collins, Dighton, Mass. “I have used Ayer’s Hair Vigor for nearly five years, and my hair is moist, glossy, and in an excellent state of preservation.

The Aldino texts in Italics seem to us to suggest a doubt on this point. HOW WE TASTE. Th* Middle of tho Tongue 1* the -Moat

Sennltlve.

Strictly speaking, with the tip of the tongue one cannot really taste at all If you put a drop of oil of bitter almonds on that part of the mouth you will find, no doubt, to your great surprise, that it produces no effect of any sort; you only taste it when it begins slowly' to diffuse itself and reaches the true tasting region in the middle distance. But if you put a little mustard or cayenne on the same part you will find that it bites you immediately—the experiment should bo tried sparingly—while if you put it lower clown in the mouth you will swallow it almost without noticing the pungency of the stimulant. The reason is, says the Yankee Blade, that the tip of the tongue is supplied only with the nerves of touch, not nerves of taste proper; they belong to a totally different main branch, and they go to a different center in the brain, together with the very similar threads, which supply the nerves of smell for mustard and pepper. That is why the smell and taste of these pungent substances an* so much alike, as everybody must have noticed, a good sniff at a mustard pot producing almost the same Irritating effects as an incautious dose. When one is trying deliberate experiments on the subject in order to test the varying sensitiveness of the different parts to different substances it is necessary to keep the tongue quite dry In order to isolate the thing you are experimenting with and prevent it spreading to all parts of the mouth together. In actual practice this result is obtained in a rather ludicrous manner—by blowing upon the tongue between each experiment with a pair of bellows. To such undignified expedients docs the pursuit of science lead

and laborious. To explore the northern shores of Franz. Josef Land dlone woul?l constitute a success, aud one of no ordinary interest. The explorer would In all probability be enabled to approach nearer to the pole than has hitherto been accomplished. A study of the currents and of the positions of the drift-wood from Siberian rivers upon the shores of Spitzliergen would throwlight upon the supposed expansion northward of Franz Josef Land. My impression is that a vast deal of that drift-wood must have reached its destination by passing northward and westward to Fran* Josef Land; if this is so, it seems improbable that itextends very much farther northward than is at present known. But all geographical speculation is extremely unreliable. An expedition wintering at Franz Josef Land, with well-prepared sledging equipments, would, in my opinion, be in the very best position for adding to

our stock of geographical knowledge in

as high a latitude as has ever yet been reached, and with the possibility of a still farther northern advance.”

tremeu^ous flock of wild d'ncRa that had been carried from the land by the wind. t hey fought desperately against the side of the tug’s house and powerful electric light on the masthead, which was the object that first attracted them. Mate Willard went on deck and was knocked flat by one of the infuriated birds, which iiewdirectly at him, striking him on the breast. To substantiate this strange story told to a Press reporter ('apt. Bernard saved twelve of the birds that fell exhausted from their struggles on the docks and they are now at his home. The Plymouth, after passing Chatham just before sundown on February 10, experienced heavy rains. Soon the wind veered to the northwest and blew a hurricane accompanied by blinding snow squalls. At nine o’clock at night Capt. Bernard and Mato Willard were both in the pilot house, when a fluttering noise was heard to windward. With the aid of marine glasses they could discern a huge dark formation moving directly toward them, and soon a flock of fully three hundred ducks made for the vessel. They flew directly toward the electric masthead light anil in striking the pole fell by the dozen to the deck. Some of the sailors were terrified at first by the fluttering noise, hut on being convinced what it was went on deck and caught fully fifty of them and stowed them away in the fore peak. The birds were ravenously hungry, having been carried miles from the hn/l in the teeth of the heavy gale. They could not fly back, such was the force of the wind, and those that failed to light on the Plymouth were carried off to sea and no doubt perished. For fully an hour the birds kept things in a state of excitement on board the tug, and Capt. Bernard confessed it was one of the most remarkable experiences he had ever seen or heard of in upward of a

quarter of a century of sea life.

which lasted for five months has just come to the attention of the Hypnotic and Psychological society in Paris, which both they and the doctors are unable to explain. A thirteen-year-old girl of an excellent provincial family is the subject of this curious experience. While tit boarding school she was suddenly frightened and became ill. She was examined by the celebrated Prof. Charcot and admitted to the insane asylum of Dr. Raffegeau at Vesinet. At this time the girl uttered a series of hoarse barks, and her wide-open mouth disclosed a highly swollen right tonsil. Every five minutes she was seized with a spasm, during which she rubhed her left eyebrow so hard with her left hand that she nearly wore it away. She was completely unconscious, and had to be nourished artificially by means of a stomach tube. Three days after reach-

ing Vesinet she fell into syncope, which* The favoriu ’ method of fishing in China is

Why Haud Organ* Are Sent Here. Italy has had no national anthem, for neither the “Garibaldi Hymn’’ nor the “Royal March” can justly lay claim to this title. Germany does not possess a national song in the true s^nso of the word. Kovoner’s “Sword Song” is tiie mous because of the romantic circnm-

| stances under which it was composed; j while the “Wacht am Rhein” owes its I popularity to its applicability during | the Franco-German war. Some, how- ' ever, consider “Heil dir im Siegcrkranz,” | which is none other than the air “God I Save the (Queen.” as the national anthem | of tiie fatherland. Spain is not more

fortunate than Italy or Germany. She

. has many pretty songs, but none ol

them can be said to breathe a purely

Norway Seeking Separation. The union between Sweden and Norway is in great danger of being broken. The two states are loosely tied, but the Norwegians are impatient of their slight fetters, and, under cover of a request for separate foreign agents, seek a total separation. The king in vain suggested a compromise, aud it is stated that the radicals have resolved, if ho refuses to establish two foreign ministries, to resign and refuse the supplies. It is scarcely possible that the king should yiclgl, as his foreign policy would become unworkable—the Norwegians for example, desire close relations with Russia—yet, if he does not, he must occupy Norway with Swedish troops, to the confusion of the finances and the production of another great and definite grievance iu Norway. The true motives of the movement are the Norwegian dislike of the Swedes, whom they regard as supercilious, and the advance of theoretic democracy in Norway to a point inconsistent with any

monarchy at all. ')<uvh la «ler UMalnn.

it was impossible to disturb by any physical ’pain. Massage and hydropathic treatment produced a visible improvement, but it was not until a few days ago that the proper remedy was discovered. Dr. Railcgeau cauterized the swollen tonsil with a redhot iron and at the same time treated the muscles under the jaw with massage. The girl gave a little scream when the iron was applied. Some hours later she was induced to repeat the vowels after the physician. Next morning she suddenly awoke, asking: “Where am I?” She had absolutely no recollection of what had occurred about her. She is now more lively than before her illness, talks incessantly and seems anxious to make up for the time she had lost by her amusing herself as much as possible.

WASHINGTON’S HEAD GONE.

Old Landmark I)*Htroyed by KxplnHiun of a Gigantic Illast. One of the biggest blasts of dynamite that lias ever taken place in a quarry, if not the biggest, occurred the other day at the Palisade quarries about two miles from Fort Lee. The palisades at this point, which is just opposite Fort Washington, were shorn of about one thou: and feet of surface and the displacement extended about three hundred feet on an average into the rock. “Washington’s Head” has been a landmark for many years to boatmen and tourists going up and down the river, the grim profile looking 1 startlingly dis- | tinct just when it came into view through its resemblance to that of the | Father of His Country. Washington’s head is no more. It tottered and went I down in the general havoc caused by I the blast, and lies broken in a hundred j pieces at the foot of the palisades. The I blast was hardly felt at Fort Lee, where ’ it simply made the earth quiver a little, , like an iufaut earthquake. Two miles ; or more of fissured m k makes a good 1 buffer, and the shock was pretty well exhausted when it reached the village. i.nti - - • .‘Hi. lit ot tae rock displaced wns estimated at one hundred thousand tons at the lowest
