THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, JUNE 21, 18GG. A KIU TH1NU OS ICE." Once, ay a Norwegian fable, Bruiu met a lox, who bore Some choice tlnh, which he pretended lie had )uet been angling for. "Tench me, sir, an art o useful," Quoth the bear; and Reynard spake: "In the Ice a crevice making, Drop jour tail Into the lake. "It entails a slight nnuraUna, But each pant; will be a bite; And when you at length sprint; forward, Heavy ttsh will come to light." Mr. Bear wa not embarrassed Till his tail was frozen in; Then he made bU leap find Bruin. Ever pince, cur-tailed has bijen. THE HAIR. Jjelng Tli Fanlilonnhl Colored Hair I hfi Jtjre l b at Kill. J'rom the London Spictaior. Are wlps Immoral 1 because if not, one scarcely perceives a rcaon why the newspaper moralists, who are so lond of describing Ano nyrna and Cora Pearl wit d a kind of reprohen si've vcluptuotisncfes of detail, should waste so much moral xtrcngih in denouncing the practice of usinp hair dves It is not more wicked, one would think, in itself, than wearing false teeth or Bcattenue powder or pud liii, aud all those sins have hitherto escaped with very lenient censure from the npwtpi;jer pulpit. Women, and men too, have dyed their hair from tune immemorial, and there has not be"n an interval within the Inst three centuries dur ing which hair-dresere have not employed pig ments to conceal greynefs, whiteness, or eccen tricity of color in the hair. The only thing new is the fashionable fhade, and the introduction of thnt shade is in one way a distinct gain. It lias restored the popular lakh in the possible beauty of light-haired women. The condition of public opinion upon that subject has for years past been almost a marvel. That a people essen tially Northern, among whom five peroons in six naye hair tinged with some shade of light blown, should preler bla;k hair, is perhap? natural, for infrequency always increases tne piquancy ot admiration. Orientals, on the same principle, admire fair hair and excessive lightness ol complexion, and one African race, the Somali, stains its black "wool with henna and lime till it is of a dull brick-dust hue. But the tnglish horror ol light hair in women was almo.--t comical in its inten sity, so deep as to ailed liierature and penetrate the opinions of the uncultivated mass. One shade ot red. that fal-c auburn which is red in the sun and brown under artilicial light was tolerated, chielly, we imagine, because fashion nblo upiuion is lormed under chandelier: but the true auburn, which has a golden Hash in it under the sun and a red fluh only by caudle light, the auburn which the Italian painters loved three ccnturcs ago, and Millars can paint now when he will let his imagination work as "well as his eyes, wns utterly condemned, all the more viciously perbap ocean0 that is the shade in whicu hair is iouud most voluminous and silky. Part of the objection to red hair, no doubt, arose from the ugly complexion, and freckles, and turncd-up nose by which it is often accom panied; but the aversion was felt and expressed even in ca-es w here red hair was only the natu ral complement ot very regular beauty. The new fashion, therefore, of dicing hair to lighten its color, instead of dyeing it to darken it, strikes right athwart a national prejudice, so clearly athwart, that while it has testored people to the use of their senses in judging color, it has also raised an absurd shout ot reprobation. Dyeing may be immoral possibly, but dyeing red cannot be more immoral than dvcing black. So rapid nas been the spread of this fashion that the resources of chemistry have been ran sacked tor dyes, and we have before us a huge volume ot receipts tor the production of almost .any shade. They are all very naety ; nastiness is the real objection to hair-dyes, as it is to rouge and chignons, and is not to false teeth and all subject to one fatal defect. They do not change the inherent color ot the hair, which crows every moment as it was originally made; the pigments, therefore, must be incessantly reapplied, and the hair, iuMjud of being dyed, as, tor instance, a topaz 1 dyed by burning, is only painted by no means a very pleasing idea. One would think it ftririui facie possible to make a radical change, the coloring matter being an oil held, as it were, in n tube, and impregnated with subiitances the character of which has been discovered. According to Air. Cooiey, '"The chemical con stitution of I he hair wa rirst lundn known by Hatchett. who showed it to consist chiefly of in durated albumen, together with a little gelatine, or matter that yields it. Sou and very flexible hair is said to contain the most gelatine. Sub seoue.itlv. Vauauelin discovered that hair con tains two dill'eivnt kind. of oily mutter the one while and bland, common to all hair; the other colored, and on which, iu part, the particular color of the hair depends, lie also found small and variable quantities of mineral titihatancps in hair. In lishi-colored hair he fonnd magnesia, and in black and dark ha'r, iron and sulphur. It is the presence of these last that mainly gives to dark hair its color. Fur, wool, bristles, and spines, in their chemical nature, structure, and mode of formation, resinble hair; as also, to a very great extent, do the feathers of birds." We ought, it 1hat is correct, and we knew how, to be able to teed people into hair of the wisned-for color; but then we do not know liow; an t so are driven back on devices many of which are dan gerous or disagreeable. It is easy enough and eafe enough to darken the color. A weak solnuon of acetate 'of iron dissolved in water and mix-d with a little gly cerine will, if rubbed daily into the head, gradually and permanently darken the hair, and benefit the'hcaltn beidi? a hint we recom mend to red-haired bea'.tties when a popular prejudice turns against them again, as it will one day. Lead, otcen :f C, i:istad ot Iron, is ns dangerous a substance ui it is well po.-sible to employ, and the lead eorob in which our grand mothers trusted is of very uncertain ellicacy. There is no swilt mode which does not involve the use ot lead or 9ilver to a dangerous extent, and no safe mode except iron, or sometimes, alter a certain age, iron urn! Riilphurct of potas sium, wlvhk restores the decr-asing sulphur. In any case, too, under any temptation, the woman who tries to change t lie color of her eyelashes is a fool, who risks for nothing penaltie which may embitter an entire liie. For lightening the hair the following s said to be Ine formula most in use, and is, when the lime is applied a little too lav'.j-hl.v, as ingenious u device for injuring the head as ingenuity has y-t discovered: lake ot Carbonate of lend 1 ounce; Litlinre (pure: lev. gnti'iti I ( ol eucii. Uydrated oxide of oniutb. ) ( 4 ounce; Fresh slaked iime bounces; Uisiiileu or soil wuitr 1 pin:; , boil with constant stirring, for 3") or 40 minutes. "When cold, pour the whi le, iuto a wide-mouthed bottle, add ot Liquor ot ammonia ( fc0-Ea2) 2 fluid diachtns; put in ihe coi k, and shake freiuenM v for some hours. The next day pmir off the liquid ptutl n. The sediment, which forms the dye, must then be well stirred together, and again before use. It is to be applied tor k to 10 minutes to produce an ''auburn color;" 1.1 minutes lor "che-.tuit," lid minutes lor "full brown;" and 00 minutes or longer for "deep blown"' and "black." For the paler shades It is to be waehed oil' w ith water containing a little common soda. ("Liquid Huraoic uye. Take ot fl' drated protoxide 'ol lead Liquor o poiasita . j unco; .'i fluid ounces; mix in a stoppered phial, and uuciitlv for some da It inu't ii'itate it Ire ne use J moro or less diluted, according to the object in view. By its skilful "application, every shade, from a Dale "sandv red" tn "dark brown." may bo wroduccd: 'and these inav be turned on the "golden brown;" "auburn," and "chestnut,'' by subsequently moistening the bair with a weak solution of sulpuuret of potas'ium or hydrosulphuret of ammonia. Ins'.ant.iueoiis hair dyeing is elfected by washtu? the hair in a solution of nitrate of sil ver, and then in a mixture of hydrosulpUttrot of ammonia and distilled water, which acts as a mordant, when the hair instantly turns either brown or black. It is, however, on the golden shades that intellect has been recently chiefly expended, and here is a list which includes evpry color except one the soldcn bronze which is caused by washing with a solution of blue vitriol, followed by another of the terro cyanide of potassium : "A strong infusion of afflower. or n solution of pure rou-,-e, in a weak solution of crystallized carbonate of soda, give a 'bright red,' like henna, or a 'reddish yellow,' according to its strength, if followed, when dry, by a 'mordant' of lemon juice and vinegar diluted with one hall to an equal bulk c.f water. "An acidulated solution of a sal of anti mony, followed by a weak mordant' of neutral hydrosulphuret ot ammonia or the blsulphnret, caietully avoiding excess, gives a red turning on the orange,' which tones well on light brown hair. "A solution of sulphantirooninte of potassa (Schlippe's salt), with a mordant of water slightly acidulated with sulphuric acid, give) a 'bright orange red' or 'golden red color.' "Golden Yellow. A solution of bichloride of tin (snlliclcntly diluted) followed by a ' mordant' of hydrosulphuret ol ammonia, gives a rich 'golden yellow tint' to very light hair, and a 'golden brown' to a darker bair, owing to the foiniattouof aurum musivum, mosaic gold, or bisulphuret of tin. " A solution of acetate or nitrate of lead, fol lowed by a ' mordant' of yellow chromate of potash, gives a brilliant rich 'golden yellow.' If wanted warmer' or 'deeper toned,' a few drops of solution of diacetate of lead (Ooti luid's extract) Bhould be added to the acetate solution. "A solution of pure annotta. obtained by boil ing it in water slightly alkali.ed witn carbonate of ,oda, or with salt "of tartar, gives a "golden yellow' or 'flame yellow,' accirding to its Mrciigth, to very pale hair, and corresponding tones to darker hair. A previous 'mordunt' of alum water 'deepens' it; and a subsequent wash ing with water soured with lemon 1'iiee or vine gar reddens it, or turns it on the 'orange.' '' Ilecnu, by-tlie-wa.y, is unobjectionable, and never tails, ?o that if any woman really wishes lor bright red hair she has only to make friends with foiuc attache of the embassy at Constanti nople, or with Mr. Laynrd. We must add that there is now sold in Paris a dye which Instantly changes white or flaxen hair into the most glo rious gold. It is called orpiment, is the golden sulphiiret of arsenic, and has only one trilling drawbuck, which those who want it probably will not mind. It kills, lust as inevitably and as swill ly as doses of arsenic would. SADDLES AND HARNESS. rIIE OLDEST ASD LARGEST SADDLE AND HARNESS 3IANCVACTUEING ESTABLISHMENT IN THE COUNTRY.
