The customer ia told first to wash her
hair and comb with it well dried. Bln*

A preparation that ia amber colored and
of the consistency of cream ia taken from
a jnr and rubbed thoroughly into the
hair, and where it was entirely Ju*tor-
leas before, it begins to assume n g!o.»s.
This is rubbed so thoroughly into the
scalp that rone of ttie hairs can fail to
haT# received a portion. Than vigorous
brushing is re«oru*d to, and ihu short
hair begins to leogtheu. It it were nn

inches long, and if Left.re it hid been
done up in w hat old fa liioned Southern

CHEAP ART INSTRUCTION.
It may interest some young artist
among your readers to learn that it does
not cost much to become a Raphael or a
Turner. Take this concise statement of
the work done at the art schools of the
National Acadomy of De*ign:
A season's matriculate card oosts a
nominal lea, »iu. ihe sessions extend
from tiie first Monday in October to the
middle of May. Applicants are required
to submit some •pecimena of their work
to the school commit re, which rxamiues
liu-,1 the is*t wrrk in ^rp.ember and
every Monday during the season.
'Ihe principles au l pra'tire of ait are
taugi.t chiefly through ilm study of
antique sculpture and the living model,
both nude and draped, by lectures upvn
anatomy, perspective, etc., and through

Judge Hammond bejd
the jurisdiction to pass on a decision of
either tbe circuit court or tho supreme
court.
Col Richardson contended that th#
■upreme court of the United States gave
biui just such jurisdiction; that if,
»Ur * mistaken apprehension of tho law
by Judge J^wiggart and tho supreme
court, tins man was illegally convicted,
and it could be shown that no such law
existed at all, then thia court had juris
diction to pass on whether or not thia
man was restrained of his liberty against
the law of the land. Judgn Hammond
was in doubt of tiie propriety of ad
mitting Judge Swiggart's charge, but
after a lengthy argument tiie charge was
read, me charge instructed that it tne
jury found that King had worked at his
ordinary occupation on Sunday, and thal
if tli* habitual doing so shocked tbe
moral sense of the community, he was
guilty of committing a common nui-
sanev; the question of disturbing other
people by noise, smell, or otherwise, tbe
question of religious belief, or the ob
