STUDY IN BRONZE HAIR.
Novel Incident Illustrative of London's
Variegated Life.
A curious claim, says a London ex
change, was brought before Judge
Lumley Smltih in the Westminster coun
ty court yesterday, 11 for a perfumer's
bill being claimed1 by a Mr. Emlle
against Captain ToleramI his) wife. Tho
principal question was o to whether
washing the lady's hnlr with dye. which
her husband said made her hair bronze,
to which he objected, was necessary.
One Item was for additional hair for the
back of ith? htd and curls. It appeared
that the operation, when the dye waa
used, lasted three hours, and his honor
expressed surprise ithat any lady should
sit for three hours to have her hair
dressed.
I t apiM-ored Mint the lady received f00
a year from her husband. Judge Smith
was of opinion that It waa not necessary
to have bronze hair, however much
It might be the fashion, and gave Judg
ment for the amount claimed against

SILKS! SILKS ! SILKS ! SILKS!
We have been fortunate in securing about 20 pieces of
FINE CREPQN SILKS
Which we consider are worthy of a special announcement The weave is of the
Plisse effect, with Satin Stripe, and the groundwork is one color, of which there
are about a dozen shades. The Satin Stripes are in some instances the same shade,
in others a beautiful contrasting tint.
The price of these Silks has been up to the present time $1.75 per yard ;
our price is F 75
59c. A VARD.
