TTow to Wear the Iiair,
Tne e is no very decided r Imnjre Jn t be
style of roitTurea this autumn, ftrd His
probable that the mode of nrrarnrlnir
the hair next winter will not differ in
fttiy material way from that which has
been fashionable for the last year. The
rule is still that coiffures should be low,
although there is a tendency to raising
them ever so little more than was done
last winter. In the evening particularly,
ntd on occasions when the hair is sup
posed to be dressed more than usual,
coiffures will be raised a little more
from the neck, arranged a little .higher
w.Vle,,'nek of the head, and brought a
little further forward on the top. This
Bhape of coiffure is the one speciallv
adapted at all times for married ladies.
Young ladies, generally speaking, affect,
and will continue to affect, the very
kow, Greek-like coiffures, with the hair
brought low on the brow and coiled on
the neck. As this style of coffure de
fines the contour of the head with the
utmost accuracy, it should not be
adopted by Indies the shape of whose
heads is not all that it should be. Given
a pretty head it is a charming coiffure;
given the contrary it is most unbecoming
and ungainly. We have already had

the lront hair can farst be parted in the
middle, and then separated by another
pnrung, reacuing irom the middle part
ing to the ears, from the back hair. This
front hair can be crimped, or rather
waved, aud carried to the top of the
back of the head, where the two locks of
nair are secured firmly ;with a hairpin.
The hair behind the ears is next sep
arated from the back hair and carried
up in the same way. The four locks of
hair are then arranged in long and rather
ul loops, two Drougut lorward toward

piece at the right of the head is brought
rounu to me i-nt side, and tne piece at
the left side, cvosslotc with the other in
the neck, is biought'round to the right
side of the head. Both rjieces of hair are
fastened firmly right below the bow of
iiair. xue end ot one is passed in a nar
row band through the middle of the
row, to complete the semblance of a
knot; the other is turned in between the
bow and the bands of hair against the
neck, so as to form a fifth loop. A very
lignt. thin net should be drawn care
fully over the coiffure, as the loops of
iiair iainng on the neck are especially
apt to become roughened and to lose
their shape, if not held in place. This
style of coiflure can be composed with a
moderately good suit of hair, without
me aid oi any laue additions. In laet,
false hair is now worn as little as nns-
sible, the coiffure being usually simple
enousru to a lnuc oi its being put up
without such help.
The front iair is now worn less
crimped than it was a tew weess neo.
Ia many Parisian coiffures the front
nair is arranged m almost flat bandeaux,
and carried, straight or smooth, awav
from the face with a lew flat rins fall
ing over the brow, or a fringe with the
enas turned in nice a bang, only les
hear than one. But it is only a small
Sercentago of women whose face can
ear this severely simply arrangement
of the fr nt hair, as well as the mass ot
tangled locks over the brow, asj fash
ionable at present, consequent! y thi.-.
latter style has the Rreater number ot
partisans. Bangs are stiil seen, and are
not exactly out of place, although they
are no longer in the greatest favor. They
are worn more by very young girls than
by young ladies, scarcely ever by mar
ried ladies. Wearing the hair low in
the neck and close to the head ha3 been
the cause of having the front hail
brought down on the forehead almost to
cover the eyebrows often. In itself it
may not be pretty, but it is very fashion
able in Paris and in Jiugland at present
a touseled eye-darkening mass of hair
hanging over the brows being quite in
keepiug with the aesthetic rage now
prevalent in the latter country. But when
tha hairi3 brought down on the brow it
is not curled tight, but arranged in
thick soft rings or in heavy waves.
A " frizzled " look about the front
hair is now no longer admissible,
To make the front hair take the desired
flat waves, it can be dampened slightly
at night and then put up in small braids,
combed out in the morninit and covered
with a hair net; the hair will fall into
me desired jines. J or the bang or curls
which fall on the forehead, the simple
and primitive process of the pipe-stem,
over which, when it is heated, the hair
can be curled, must still be recommended
as the best. Curl-papers are more in
jurious, because they pull the hair at the
root; when care is taken not to burn the
hair, the pipe-stem can do no manner
of harm. Moreover, as curl-papers give
a tight crimp to the hair, they are not to
be recommended for the present style of
coiffures. Arranging the hair on
waved bandeaux, and bringing it low
down over the temples and then draw
ing it back behind the ears, will be a
way oi combing the front hair much
patronized next winter, probably, when
these waves will not be in danger of ig
nominiously straightening out by pers-
Jilration and heat. This is a rather try
ntj coiffure, however, generally only be
comiug to large faces with regular
features. As the whole appearance of
the face depends upon the more or less
successful manipulation of the front
hair, every woman will do well to make
the arrangement of hers a special study.
Provided she observes the general rule
that it must be, for the prevailing
fashion, rather heavy than fluffy and
crisp, she can aress her front hair in
any conceivable way and still be ortho-
oox. wuen twisting the nair iato
a
simple ooi 1 in tbe back it is best to
separate the back hair from, the front 1
hair first, at the ears, then to roll the '
back up by itaelf. The front hair, ait r
having bet n arranged in front, is th n
combed Lark, and the ends twisted
round the coil. This method goneraliy
insures a better shape to the front hair
than when all the hair is twisted up to
gether. For young girls and young
ladles the coiffure known as " a l'An
glaiso" is now very fashionable. The
hair is weaved thickly over the head,
and falls low over the brow : it is drawn
back to the nape of the neck, and there
falls in a bunch of thick, soft curls,
which are kept in place by an invisible
net. This is a charming coiffure for
ladies whose bairis natnrally curly, and
can be managed, by artitieisleurling, by
any one to whom it may be becoming,
provided the hair is not very long. When
it is long the coiffure is modified by
substituting a roll for the curls. The
hair is arranged in a long, loose, full
roll, and left to hang in an invisible net
on tue neck. Sometimes braids are ar
ranged in this way, but they are heavier
and less pretty than the loose roll.
Very few ornaments are worn in the
nair. except for very full dress. New

A Short History of Wheat.
The varieties of wheat are almost
numberless, and their characters vary
widely under the influence of cultiva
tion and climate. There are said to be
180 distinct varieties in the museum ot
Cornell university. On the slonea of

Angio-aaxons wnen Hefle wrote, early
in the eiehtti century, sowed their
wheat in the spring, and in the days of
vuccu iviiiiiuciu us cultivation was out
partial, indeed, wheat was an artmle
of comparative luxury till nearly the
seventeenth century. In India wheat
seems not to be native, but introduced,
for its Sanscrit name signifies "food ot
the barbarian;" yet three varieties are
mentioned in the Bhavaprakasu, one ot
wnicii, a large-grained, is said to have
come Irom the West, and ano'her. a
small-grained or beardless wheat, ia
said to have been indigenous to Middle
India.
The first wheat raised in I lie " Hour
World " was sown by SDtmiards on the
island ol Isabella, in January. 1494. and
on March 30 the ears were Gathered.
The foundation of the wheat harvest of
Mexico is said to have been three or
four grains carefully cultivated in 1530,
and preserved by a slave ot Cortez. The
crop of Quito was raised by a Francis
can monk in front of the convent.
Garci lasso de la Verga affirms that in
Peru, up to 1547, wheaten bread had not
been sold at Cusco. Wheat was first
sown by Gosnold on Cutty junk, one ot
tbe Elizabeth islands in Buzzard's bav,
off Massuchussetts, in 1G02, when lie
first explored tbe coast. In 1604, on the
island of St. Croix, near Calais, Me.,
the Sieur do Monts had some wheat
sown, which flourished finely. In 1611
the first wbi'at appears to have been
sown in Virginia. In 1626 samples of
wheat grown in the Dutch colony at
New Netherlands were shown in 'Hol
land. It is probable that wheat was
sown in the Plymouth colony prior to
1620 though we find no record of it, and
in 1629 wheat was ordered from England
to be used as seed. Ji 1718 wheat was
introduced into the valley of the Miss
issippi by the " Western Company." In
1799 it was among the cultivated crops
of the Simos Indians ot the Gela river,

DIYORCES,
The Laws Conrernlns Them In TMtTerent

Australians. Divorces have never
been sanctioned in Australia.
Jews. In olden times the Jews had a
discretionary power of divorcing their
wives.
Javans If the wife be dissatisfied
she can obtain a divorce by paying a
certain sum.
Titir.F.TANs. Divorces are seldom al
lowed, unless with the consent of both
parties, neither of whom can afterward
remarry.
Moons If the wife does not become
the mother of a boy she may be divorced
with the consent of the tribe, and she
can marry again.
Abys8iniAn8 . No form of marriage is
necessary. The connection may be dis
solved and renewed as oiten as the
parties think proper.
Siberians. If the man be dissatisfied
with the most trifling acts of his wife,
he tears her cap or vail from her head,
and tins constitutes a divorce.
Corean. The husband can divorce
his wife or treasure, and leave her the
charge of maintaining the children. If
she proves uniaithfu', he can put her to
dcatli.
Siamese. The first wife mav be di
vorced, not sold, as the others may be.
she then may claim the hrst. third and
fifth child, and the alternate children are
yielded to the husband.

a divorce he leaves the house in anger.

The wife understands the hint, packs

Druse and Turkoman. Among
these people, if a wife asks her hus
band's permission to go out, and he says
" Go," wii hout adding but come back
again," she is divorced. Though both
parties desire it, tney cannot live to
eether igain without beine remarried
Cochin China. If the parties choose
to separate tney break: a pair ot chop
sticks or a copper coin in the presence
of witnesses, by which action the union
is dissolved. The husband must restore
to thejwifethe property belonging to htr
prior to ner marriage.
American Indians. Among some
tribes the pieces of sticks given the wit
nesses ot tne marriage are broken as a
sign of divorce. Usually new conneC'
tions are formed without the old ones
being dissolved. A man never divorces
his wife if she has borne him sons.
Tartars The husband may put
away hi3 partner and sees; another when
it pleases him, ar.d the wife may do the
same, ii sue oe ill-treated, she com
plains to the magistrate, who. attended
by the principal people, accompanies
her to the house and pronounces a
formal divorce.
Chinese Divorces are allowed in
all cases of criminality, mutual dislike,
jealousy, incompatibility of temper, or
too much loquacity on the part of the
wife. The husband cannot sell his wife
until she leaves him, and becomes a
slave to him by action of the law for
desertion. A son is bound to divorce
his wife if she displeasjs his parents.
Circassians. Two kinds of divorce
arc granted in Circassia one total, the
other provisional. When the first is
allowed the parties can immediately
marry again; where the second exists
the couple agree to separate for a year,
and if, at the expiration of that time,
the husband does not send for his wife,
her relations may command of him a
total divorce.
Grecians. A settlement was usually
given to a wife at marriage for support
in case of a divorce. The wife's portion
was then r stored to her, and the hus
band reauired to pay monthly interest
for its use during the time he detained it
from her. Usually the men could put
their wives awav on slieht occasions.

Hindoos. Either party for a slight
cause may leave the other and marry.
When both desire it there is not the
least troub e. If a man calls his wife
" mother," it is considered indelicate to
live with her again. Among one tribe,
the " Gores," if the wife be unfaithful,
t .e husband cannot obtain a divorce
unle he gives her all the property and

may leave when she pleases, aud marry

companion jooked, and soon saw an
iguana's head peeling over the edge of a
og that led into lie river. His body
was concealed, (nd he was evidently
taking a siesta ovr the cool water. -
The guide laid down his gun, and,
taking a club, crfct cautiously to him,
and, aiming a bbw, brought the club
down on tho lizari ( f ) No, indeed ; the
creature was too luick for him ; but in
its fright it missa its footing and fell
into the water.
Without thinkng, Quito for such
was the Indian's hame sprang after it,
and the two togener sank out of sight,
and for a momeit the splashing and
spray hid them ftm view. A moment
more and Quito's ead came to the sur
face and the tail of the iguana, thrash
ing the water in I fierce way, and now
they were out of sht again.
It was evident tuito bad no idea the
lizard was so largl, lor when they came
up again he wai engaged in a fierce
struggle, the waer being dyed with
blood, from whidi of them the white
man, who was wating for a chance to
shoot, could not til. At last, creeping
out on the log, aid looking down into
the water, he btfield a frarfui sight.
The lizard, a perfect monster of about
twelve feet in leigth, had fastened its
claws into poor Qaito, and was writh
ing and tearing him in a terrible man
ner. The plucky warn had caucht him by
the tail and tlfroat. and was trying to
hold him off. J seemed only a ma'ter
of time who shu Id drown first, when
Quito struck bottom, and, giving him
self a push, he ose to the surface asain,
still holding thelizard at arms-length.
As it came to the surface it buried its
five knile-like chws in the man's face,
slitting it in a terrible manner; but even
thn he held on with the tenacity of a
bulldog. The observer on tho bank
crept out now at far as he could upon
the log and called to Quito to catch
the stick he held out, and he would pull
him in. ,
After several trials he managed to
reach it, and stillholding the struggling
monster, was hauled, bleeding and cut,
ashore, where, vith a terrible blow
from the gun tie reptile was kil'ed.
Quito was so weak from his exertions
and loss of blood that he could not
move. The creiture had bitten him
several times, and scarcely a spot on his
body but had received a cut like that of
a knife, telling the power of the terrible
claws.
The monster wasdragged to the camp,
its skin taken off, and after Quito's re
covery, and they had gone down to the
coast, it was stuffed, and now adorns
the collection of a well-known scien

Indian Images.
Some of the Indians at Zuni, New
Mexico, having been converted to
Christianity, have no further use for the
images before which they formerly
bowed down. Two images have been
taken from nn old stone church near
Zuni and sent to the Smithsonian insti
tution. One represents a man and one
a woman. Each is cut from a solid
block of wood, with the exception of
the shield, the arms and the wings,
which pre attached. The man image
has lost his arms and wings, but wears
his shield intact. Both imasres are so
hideously usly as to excite wonder that
even New Mexican Indians could see
their way clear to fall down and wor
ship fiem. Both of them bear inscrip
tions wnicn nave not yet been trans
lated from the queer language in which
they are written.

Will Wonders Ever Cease!
Mr. John G. Fledderman, the well,
known Merchant Tailor.in Union Block,
writes: "I was a sufferer for many
VearS With Nfeilralfrta onA Rhfitimniiam
and found no relief until I tried St!
jacoos tin. Alter using two bottles
I was entirely cured."
Chillioothe (Obio) Rom Connty Regtr
A Lady In tha matter.
That " woman's wit is often superior
to man's Wisdom," was convincingly
proved in a circumstance that occurred
mlhis city recently. It appears that
Mr. Ludwig Schwarzler, a widely
known Grocer on Station Road, suffered
with a very painful rheumatie headache
to such a degree, that he was obliged to
seek the aid of a physician. All medi
cines he used were of no avail. This
induced Mrs. Schwarzler to buy St.
Jacobs Oil. She procured a bottle for
her husband. With the second appli
cation he found relief. The pain left
him, and he is as well as ever again. A
remt dy acting as promptly cm this cer
tainly deserves univeistl patronage.
Rev. Charles Spurgeon, it is said,
keeps two men constantly at work gr
ing through the Loudon libraries to find
illustrations for use in his sermons.
