Ringwalt Company GOLD DUST FOR THE HAIR (New York Cor. Kansas City Star) George Jay Gould's daughter Vivien and others of the younger set have adopted an old fashion for their more piquant dances- that of powdering their hair with gold dust. Hundreds of tiny spangles of the most vivid yellow are sprinkled over the coiffure, sometimes by means of a devic that distributes them evenly, but oftener in irregular handfuls, heightening the effect. The glitter that dust lends to headdresses is not only bewildering, but beautiful. Nor is restricted to women whose hair is goiden, brown or black.

Those whose heals are crowned with gray or white find the new whim becoming. Indeed, snowy locks powdered with gold are attractive in the extreme--a little startling, it may be, but illustrative of the fact that in this enightened age no woman really need grow old. A widower in town can board, but a widower in the country must get married. NEW BISHOP CONSECRATED Ann Arbor, Jan. 26-With all the splendor of' the Roman Catholic ritual, the Rev.

BRICKS Hurled Through Window Of Milersburg Law Office (Millersburg Republican) The windows of the law office of C. R. Cary, over the Schlegel shoe store, were broken by unknown parties throwing pieces of bricks through them about 12 o'clock Tuesday night. The crash and falling glass alarmed the operators at the M. W.

0. telephone office, a short distance away, and going to the window two men were seen running down street. Marshal Hoover and Mr. Cary were 1m- mediately notified and were on the scene in a few minutes. Ropes were placed about the entrance to the office and out into the street for several feet around, and word was sent to Dayton for bloodhounds.

There is every reason to believe that the perpetrators of the deed will be apprehended and there seems to be a very strong public sentiment here against such lawless operations.
