« r â-º WEAK HATS ALL THE TIltE. A Curioiu Cuittoui uf Some Pcr»Lin4 Not AttoniiaU with B^tldumia. From time to time I h*v;- aoticed theo- ries setting forth the chief caosee of bald- net>a, aach as kbnormkl heat from the head cover, and •• cocalriotion of the blood vea- aels of the bead by tight hats." Prof. T. Wesley Milla holds that "the principal root of thia trouble 13 in nervoaa atraia.' All these theoriea may have somethiut; to do with the loea of hair. Daring; seTeral years' reaidence in Hong Kon»{, in my pro feasional daties, I had to do with a goodly number of persons, representing a large variety of naiionalitiee, and in my gtady of these people I foand that many theories deduced from local experiencea at home were, in aome cases at least, hardly broad ecooi^h to oorer all facts found at lame ir; nature and bearing upon the speciSo points of investit^ation. Familiar with some of the popular theories as to the canse of baldness. 1 was surprised to find men who always wore a covering to their beads, and daring business hours and who always when out of doors wore a very tight bat, were never bald and pas sensed a wonderfully strong, thick head of hair. X refer to the Parsees (Persiansi. There is a sacred, religisua law among tliem that no man shall go with hia head uncovered. When the Mohammedana invaded Persia, the major uart of the native Peraiana who were not extermmated ded farther eait into India, found protection and a welcome home among the Hindoos, a people of castea, and in order that these strangers shoald always be identilied, also knowin, that their religion obliged them to wear a bead covering, a law was passed to compel all Parsees to wear a certain style of hat whenever exposed outside of their own private home. The hat prescribed is as tall as an American silk hat with no brini ; it truly might be called a '• stove-pipe." Thia hat ia worn inclining backward on the head from io to 40 degrees, and, in order to keep it on its place, the brim is made to cling very close to the head , bein^ so tight and so constantly worn that quite a deep depresaion is caused aubetantially around the head : it aeemed as if the skull might be involved, but, not having the opportunity of examining one, I was not able to folly determine. Whenever this hat is removed, a skull cap immediately takes its plaoe. In my professional daties these bats often had to be removed, and it appeared to me as a curious factâ€" if some of the popular theoriea were altogether true â€" that these people should never be bald. Therefore, I instituted a series of strict inquiries. Many of these gentlemen spoke English intelli gently, also French. German. Persian and their' local Hindoo dialect. Some of them kindly allowed an examination of their beads', and also assured me that they never knew one of their race that was bald. Popular Science Monthly. „. MAiainoNiAU A Brilliant Weiitllog la Scottish Upper Tendom. The great event of the season in the southeast of S<xiiland has been the mar- riage of Hiss Constance Kisbet Hamilton, the rich proprietress of Biel, Dirleton, Bel- haven and Pencaitland, East Lothian, to Mr. Henry T. Ogilvy, son of Sir John Ogilvy Bar(.,of Inverqohariiy.Forfarshire.

Bishop Dow- den oCiciated. Most of the guests left immediately afterwards, as the newly- married couple were not going on any extensive marriage tour, but intended passing the honeymoon at Biel. Though every tiling was thus gone about in the sen- sible manner which might have been expected of Alias Hamilton, her bridal dreaa might have excited the envy of ladies generally. She wore an extremely handsome dresa of the richest ivory white velvet brocade, with long train. The petti- coat was of ivory white satin, and was com- pletely covered with valuable antique Brus- sels laoe, which had been inherited from the late Lady Mary Nisbet Hamilton, the bride's mother. The bodice was fastened in front by live large diamond buttons or brooches, and had a high Tu£ and trim- ming of the same valuable lace. Her veil, which was of the same Brussels lace, was long, and was fastened back with large diamond stars ; and in her hair she wore a spray of white hawthorn (the Ogilvy badge), myrtle and white heather. She alao wore a ruby and diamond brooch, a triple horseshoe diamoad brooch and two diamond rings, the gifts of the bridegroom; a hawthorn spray in diamonds, the gift of the brother and sisters of the bridegroom . and in her hair a diacaond ornament, the gift of Sir John OgUvy. In addition she wore a tiara of &ve diamond stars, and a diamond necklace, with cross and earrings : and wore rings and bracelets of the same valuable stones from her family jewela. She carried a beautiful bouquet, composed ct white heather and myrtle. The mar- riage presents were very numerous and â-¼aloable. MB. KERBI'S STRAMGE DREAM, lu TTbicli Ha learns Partlcalan of His Mother's Deatb. There are man' who. while not believing in spiritualism, nave a strong and abidmg faitb In presentiments, especially when the belief is accually forced upon them by demcnatration. Sa;:h is Mr. Joseph Kerby, of Montreal, the representative of an Eng- liab mining syndicate. He ia of the old Kerby family of Brantford, it bemg his brotber James who built (he Kerby House in that city. Mr. Kerby was in Toronto a few days ago and m the course of conversation he tcld a remarkable story. In 1;03, when the American -wTir was at its height, tc went south from Chicago to look after some cotton business. At Nashville. Tenn.. he was captured by the Confederate forcta as a spy and thrown into prison. After a few months there he waa transferred to Libby Prison, and ior some onfence towards the oi^oer in command was placed in the black hole with a single companion. One night his comrade in miaery awoie and heard him sobbing, and waking him up. asked whv be was crying. He eaid he had dreamt that hia mother had die<i in Brantford. Canada, that night : and what particularly impressed him waa that she bad insisted upon dying upon a certain bed and in a certain room which she had never before used. Some weeks after this Mr. Kerby was released and several letters handed to him. Among them was black bordered one from h <me. Before opening it he told the ciEcers that he knew is wcold contain the annooncement of his mother's death. Relating his dream he opened the letter, which fully bore out the strange preaentiment, his mother hav- ing died the night in question. Mr. Kerby relcrned home : and before allowing any one to tell him the circumstances of bis mother's decease, he related graphically the death bed aoene, naming tb.^ae who were prtseui, inducing L^r. Reginald Hen- wocd. who still practices m Brantford. Tiie circumstances attending the death and those that he dreamt were alike in every particular. SAD DOMESTIC STORT. tVuiaaa Arrestcti for KUUdie b«r Husband â€"A Man la the Caae this Tlm«. An Ottawa despatch says : Another tragedy is reported from Vattawa. It ap- pears that a dispute took place between W. G. Gilmor, proprietor of the Union Hotel there, and his wife concemmg a young man, Joseph at. Denis, who, Mr. Gilmor averred, was too intimate with Mrs. Gil- mor. I he result of the row was that Mrs. Gilmor threw a ginger ale bottle at her hosband'a head, cutting him badly. Ha died shortly afterwards, and the doctors t;s::(y that the erfect of the blow was the cause of death. When Mrs. Gilmor was summoned during the night time to her dying h.'.rband's bedside t:t. Denis was in her room and escaped by the window. He teati£ed at the examination which followed into the sad azair at Pembroke that he had been intimate with Mrs. Gilmor for the past year and had access to her room at any time. Judge Deacon gave bim 24 hours to leave the town. Mrs. Gilmor has been arrested for manslaughter and lodged m Pembroke jail. Hough ou the Dudva. The other night, aaysthe New VorkSfar, three dudes, dressed in the height of fashion, whs were retomiag to their homes .n Brooklyn, amused tnemselves by over turning ash barrels. Their actions were watched by an odicer standing in the shade of a near-by tree. Aa they passed under the spreading branches of the tree the policeman came from hia ambnsh, and. stopping the trio, said : " This ia nice, gentlemanly conduct. No doubt to you it's rare fun. Now, if you want to avoid dis- grace and the loss of 310 each you mast come back with me and I'll show you what to do." " Oh, only a little joke, old man," ex- plained one of the dudes. But the officer was obdurate and made the fellows march back to overturned barrel No. I. " Now," said the policeman, " place the barrel in its proper position, gather the ashes and rubbish and place them in the barrel." " But surely you don't mean that," ex- claimed one of the missing liuks in horror. •• Do what I say, or I'll arrest yon," re- plied the oftioer. With great reluctance the three took their first lessod in garbrge gathering, and the same oi>eration had to be performed until the four barrels which they had up- set had been redUed. When this had been finished the oihoer allowed them to go home. A Good Kind of Face to Have. Memory of events. â€" This is shown by a wide, full forehead in the centre.

This facalty is very useful, if not indispensible, to a Judge in the exercise of the fanctiona of his olhce.
