Tbe Hair Trade
The vastucss of the busi ness done in the
Inunau hair market may l.-e judged from
the fact tbnt two cities alone Loudon and
l'aris consume annually over ItXi.MW
lounds of that commodity-, or enough to
had half a dozen freight cars. 1 lie prices
lid per head average from i down to
l wenty rents, according to the quality and
c-olor of the materiiil. Golden hair, which
is no w so fashionable among her Maj esty's
subjects sometimes brines as hieh as $2
an ounce in the English market, while very
tine white hair has been sold at $-5 an ounce.
The hair dealer requires as much nice ex
perience to fit him for his trade as the wine
taster, and relies on a kiudrcd sense to
judge of wares, his cultured nose enabling
him to tell whether the hair he handles has
lieen tampered with by unscrupulous mid
dle men, and whether it has been cut from
a living, healthy lody or a corpse in the
r-harnel, house. Contrary to common be
lief, the hair of men is g nerally tiner than
that of women, locks of flaxen color licing
liuest of all. It is nothing uncommon tor a
blonde to brush out and disentangle seven-
tv miles as she arrainrcs her "wealth of
irolden hair" in making her morning toilet.
Her dark-haired sister lags behind some
twentv or thirty tuili-s, but .may partially
be consoled by the kuowledge that a great
er portion of light -haired women live and
die unmarried, and without offspring, than
of brunettes. In fact the chances of the
two classes in the matrimonial market arc
shown bv statistics to slandasthree to two,
and the lesult of this conjugal selection is
that fair haired ladle are getting rarer
year by year, so that the blonde may be
expected in time to share the fate of the do
do and megatherium. If further evidence U
needed, reference may lie made to the writ
ings of I'a-sar, who refers to the tla-ils and
"elts as light -haired races. The Celts of
tivday are, as a rule, dnrk-!iaircd; and even
in England, the home of the blue eyed, fair
tiaircd Saxon, the original type is almost
lost, and the dark haired liriton is decided
ly in the majority.
With regard tothchygruic asjicct of hair,
some interesting statistics have been com
piled. Consumption Cuds most of its vic-
lims in Mack huirid people; rheumatLsm
and heart disease are most prone to attack
individuals with brown hair, red haired
men and women are t-pecially selected by
Dk-urisv, pueumeuua aue and neuralgia;
nnd light-haired persons are most subject to
t-kin diseases. lil-wlc people are most char
itable and tender hearted, led haired peo
ple the most obstinate aud patriotic, and
iilack haired jxople tiic most positive in
t haractcr. They are also known respect
ively as of lymphatic, sanguine and bilious
emer.iiiient. Kcgarding the extraordinary
length which the human hair may attain,
there are two local instances in point, re
lated bv Ir. Leouaid: The first is that of
.Mrs. Dr. l'rittie. of Detroit, a lady twenty-
right years of age, whose hair, which is
dirk and luxi.riaut. nicism-s some nity-
eight inches in length. Then there is the
ease of Edwin Smith, of Fairfield, I-euawee
county, whose wonderful beard measures
reveu feet six and a halt inches in lengin.
Such abnormal growths, however, are a
onstant drain on the system and usually
result in a chronic state of ill health. Ac
cording to lizne houm-d tradition, bear's
oil or hedgehog oil is the best application
fur promoting the grow th of the hair. This
tielief, like many oilier inns oi oiu-ume
orthodox v. will have to yield liefore the
detrovimr sledire hammer of science. The
oil of the bet r was doubtless selected by
our forefathers because that animal had a
very hairy CJat, and that of the hedgehog
b.-cause hisqmtj!i.ursire rcuiaruauiy strong
nud rank; the idea being that man in aosor-
t.ing the product, would at the same time
imbibe the characteristic of these annuals
iust as the Malavs eat tisc-r to make them
selves ferocious aud New Zealanders de
vour their enemies to make themselves
doubly powerful in war. lVparations of
o:x auut oils if pomade must be employed,
are probably the most beneficial and the
least offensive. Another piece, of suiier-
stition, and a more horrible one, is the gen
eral belief that hair cau grow after death.
Hair growth is just as much a living pby-
hiological action as is the beating of the
heart, aud therefore its occurence in the
case of a corpse is impossible; but some
color is given to the vulgar theory by the
contraction of the skin in a ueaa body,
w hich causes the roots of the hair to project
further tlian in life.

house then, and of course didn't have the
uame 01 Willard attached. I don't remem
ber now what the house was called. But
at any rate Taylor owned it and the hotel
didn't pay. The National was doing most
of the business, and people said Taylors's
house was too far up town. Mrs. Taylor
was a Northern woman and ued to make
a trip up North every summer. In travel
ing on the Hudson, she was struck with
the steward of one of the steamers. He
was polite and attentive to his business,
and seemed to have the knack of pleasing
eople. On her return home, Mrs. Taylor
told her husband about this steward, and
remarked that she believed he was the very
man to run that hotel. Hie said she had
a: k id him his name, and found out that it
w as Willard. Well, old man Taylor wrote
to Willard, and offered him the house if he
would come. He accepted the offer and
built up WiUard's Hotel."
"Which one of the Willards was thati"
'It was Henry. He came lirst, ami af
terwards brought his brother Joseph here.
They built an addition to the hotel, and
when it was opened, Edward Everett made
liie speech of the occasion. That was in
184s. 15ut, let me tell you, when the
Willards built themselves up in Washing

bis guests. In those days, when a stage
would drive up, the landloid would meet
the guests at the hotel door and show them

Prof. Cook, of the Michigan agricultural
college, records the following in relation to
the value and time of blooming of honey
plants, and thinks that they can hardly be
recommended too highly. White clover
and alsike arc in bloom all through June
and into July. Mignonette and sweet clov
er are in bloom as early as June 22, the
former continuing for the year, and the
latter for a month, and both yiciding
bountifully of the most delicious honey,
last year was unfavorable, and our mig
nonette did very poorly, j et from the reports
of others, and our experience in former
years, we heartily recommend it. White
mustard blooms in from four to five weeks
from planting, and the black mustard in
from seven to eight weeks. They are both
excellent and covered with bees, especially
luring the forenoon, through the entire
season of bloom. The former continues
in bloom about four weeks, the secoi-d
some longer. Like borage, these seem less
affected by climatic conditions than most
plants, being thronged by bees even alter

On the rih Hawk."
A cui iously-constructcd hMlc iron Bl earner
now lies in the Christiana river, Delaware,
it iMiilt for the use of the Commission
of Fish and Fisheries, of which Professor
C-pencer K. Baird, of the Smithsonian Ins
titute, is the Director. It is called the Fish
Hawk, aud, unlike the uira lor wnicn n is
nampd. its obiects is not the destruction,
but the increased propagation of food tishes.
Upon the Fish Hawk is carried the wuoie
apparatus for propagating fish and the
machinery aud laboratory connected there
with. The steamer is of iron, but of quite
a novel construction, unlike any other vessel
that has ever been launched upon tne wa
ters of Delaware Bay. The hull is 14" feet
6 inches long, 27 feet in breadth and 10
feet 6 inches 'deep. The outside is covered
with yellow pine planking 3 inches thick,
caulked and coppered and giving to it the
appearance to a casual observer of a wooden
ship. Tbe purpose of this construction is
to enable the vessel to remain, if necessary,
in the warm w ater of the Gulf of Mexico
without the submerged part of the hull be
coming covered with barnacles, a difficulty
always encountered by iroc hulls la tropic
si w ficmi-troDical waters, and to prevent
which a great expenditure of ingenuity has
been made during the past nueen jean.,
with very unsalislactory results. The Fish
Hawk will thus have all the buoyancy,
8tnnrth and durability of an iron vessel.
with the clean bottom and freedom from
fouling that characterize a wooden one.
TW form of construction, indeed, seems.
to hopeful machinists, to be that ot tne
ship of the future. The vessel has a twin
screw, the object being to obtain the power
needed upoa the least possible dtaft of
water and also to am in momcuvnng uk:
Ship more easily than could be done
with a sincle nniellcr. Upon the main
deck forward are placed the quarters for
the crew, H-ing about such as are usually
provided for sailors and firemen ou merch
ant vessels. Aft of the machinery on the
main deck arc the cosy little staterooms of
the ofliccrs, as well as those intended for
the scientists of the commission, who direct
the interest ine and delicate worfc ot collect
ing the spawn and hatching and caring for
the young fish. On the second aecu is tne
nicely furnished lulioratory, supplied with
microscopes and ot her instruments needed in
the examination of specimen or otheT work
connected with the processes of propaga
tion. Evervthinir connected with this
ilenartnient is most excellent in construe
tion and arrangeme'nL Forward of the

wide, in which is arranged the hatching ap
paratus. This consists of a series of conical
tanks, placed vertically and suspended with
eonmass attachment "to insure a vertical
Dosition without regard to the rolling of
the shin when in roueh water. These
tanks are thirty inches deep, eighteen
inches in diameter at the top and three
inches at the bottom. They are supplied
with clean water through a pipe, and by
means of a steam pump kept constantly
going, the overflow being carried ovcrlioard
bv a suitable system of conductors. While
the spawn are in these tanks they are kept
slowly shaking all the time by apparatus
moved by a steam engine.
Suppose the fishing season. In the De-la-
ware for example, to have begun. The
Fish Hawk, with apparatus in order and
corps of experts on board, is anchored ad
jacent to where the fish are caught. By a
preconcerted arrangement with the fisher
men, when one of their numbers catches
two fish that are in fit condition, he hoists
a small flag, if it is in the day time, or a
lantern or sends up a small rocket, if it is
at night. At this signal one of the Fish
Hawk's boats, puts off, comes quickly to
where the fisherman is, an expert extracts
the spawn or milt, as the case may be, and
returns the fish to their owner, and with
them a card or ticket. This catillcs the
bearer, when he presents it at the office in
Washiunton. to a given sum of money,
generally, in the case of shad, to about fifty
cents. As the hshermen get their usu back,
this sum is almost clear gain, and it makes
them very zealous in supplying the com
mission boat with all the tish they find that
are suitable. These little bits of paste
board pass as "currency in the fish catch-
ins reuions. When the spawn are once in
the tanks the hatching begins and is kept up
until the young fish appear. This general
ly takes from three to four days according
to the temperature of the water in which the
fish are caught; the shortest time being
when the water is from 7 1 degree to
decree Fahrenheit. The average time is
eizhtr hours. It is said that fish taken in
water of 8 degrees are useless, the increase
in temperature of frotn four to eight eie-
srees being sufficient to destroy the prin
ciple of life in the eggs. When hatched
the young fish subsist upon a portion of the
egg which adheres to them and is ansoroea
slowly within a period of eight days. They
must !e sent to their intended destina
tion within this time as no successful
method of feeding them has yet been dis
covered. Thus, young shad hatched in the
Delaware and intended for the bacramento
must be placed, as soon as they are hatched,
on board an express train and sent through
to San Francisco with as little de'ay as pos
sible, in erda- that they may be placed in
the water again before the eight days have
expired. The commission intend soon to
begin the planting of codfish in the Dela
ware and adjacent rivers, llns, when ac
complished, will add much to the value
of the fishing grounds in these localities.
Nature has aided tbe Fish Commission
much in its efforts by implanting in the
food of fishes an instinct that causes them
to return at the spawning season to the
place where they were hatched. It is a
curious fact, too, that when eggs are thus
placed in the tanks on the commission's
vessel, a much larger percentage ot them
hatch han do of those deposited by the
fish in the natural way upon the river beds
and the bottom of the ocean, the attention
of other civilized nations has been attracted
by what the United States is doing.
Ihe German government has invited
an exhibition of all apparatus and all pro
cession of fish hatching to be made in 15er-
lin durinz May of the present year. It is
expected that models of the Fish Hawk
and her machinery of propagation will be
sent, an appropriation for this purpose hav
ing been requested from the present Con
gress.
Ire in the Tyrol.
For the first time in fifty years the whole
of the lakes of the Tyrol and the balz Kam-
menrut have been hard frozen. About
thirty first-rate skaters from Vienna made
an excursion to these lakes, and they say
that no summer trip to the most picturesque
scenery In Europe ever gave them half so
much pleasure as this wintry tour, imagine.
fer instance, the lake of dmunden one
sheet of dark green ice, resplendent in the
sun and surrounded by the misty moun
tains, among which rises the Traernstein,
that phenomenon of nature sbiwjng with
wonderful exactness a clear profile of King
Louis Philippe. Handsome villas on both
rides of the lake show what a favorite spot
it is in summer, and near the end, where a
steep rock rises out of the lake liearing
upon its summit a picturesque country
church, our skaters stopped and looked
into the deep clear waters below the ice.
There the basis of the rock could be
observed as it descended steeply for many
hundred feet, A herd of chamois one day
came almost upon tha ice, and were
startled to flight by the sudden appearance
of our skaters. A fete with races and illu
minations and strange old country games
was held in honor of the fiftieth anniversary
of the lakes being frozen over. The anni
versary was kept up everywhere, for the
great lakes Constance and Zurich and the
well protected lake, in th? heart of the
mountains had never Iroz'.n before sine?

they are not equally adapted to skating
purposes. Some are covered w ith snow and
oihers again hara tut a rough surface,
while a few of them froze whihj the water

dulatcd.

there are not sufficient data

due to sex, how much to oe-cupation, and
how much say to their boots aud other
