A youth with untouched face walked slowly past a barber shop, then back again, then passed and repassed, each time drawing nearer and nearer. Fi- nally, as though he had just reached a determination, he turned in and hand- ed his hat, coat and collar to the offi- clating “shine.” When it came his turn he got into the chair with an alr Or #8surance which was rather out of keeping with his haunted eyes. “Hair cut?”’ queried the barber. “Naw; shave,” sald the youth. “Just once over, and be kind o’ careful of the neck ‘whisker.” The barber put his hand over his face to hide a grin and went to his lather cup. He turned on the hot water and passed a wink down the line until ev- ery barber had his gaze that way. Then, with ponderous care, he lathered the face and coolly began shaving his customer with the back of: the razor. “Does she pull?” he asked after a bit. “A leetle raw,” sald the customer, with fine discrimination. “Got a wire edge, hasn't it? The barber replied by stropping his own hand violently, then resumed shaving with the back. of the razor. “How’s that? he sald. “Fine as silk,” said the customer, now grown veteran, “I tell you it's all in -the - stropping, Jack."—Baltimore News. Belf: Winding Watches. ‘“Watchmaking is no longer what it used to be,” sald a collector. “Where will you find today artists mdking and selling readily watches worth $2,500 aplece? Brequet was the greatest watechmaker the world has ever seen. He was a Bwiss, but he lived in France. The ~watch - collector who hasn’t a Brequet timeplece has a sad-- ly incomplete collectlon. Brequet ‘watches were the acme of beauty, of originality and of accuracy. One played a tune every hour, another had ‘on its dial little figures that danced, a third was a self winder. They were very -ingenious, those self winding watches. They worked on the pedom- | & eter principle.

A Queor Argument. It Is often urged that eloquence and affectation are inalienable, but I main- tain that the peculiar pronunclation of certaln words—if that constitutes af- fectation—is a ‘pardonable fault, of which many eminent orators are them- selves gullty. In vast cathedrals and large halls where the acoustic proper- tles are of an unusual order it s clear- ly ‘manifest that -some pronunciations are preferable to others, for gome words by the very composition of their syllables are not go'far reaching in their sound as others, 8o that if a ruse 1s adopted to galn the desired effect surely it 1s detrimental to no onme.— London' Academy. Putting 1 the Sting. Olara—I understand that' Mr. Feath- erley paid me a very pretty compli- ment today? ‘Ethel—Yes. - What was 1t?

Attracting Attention. “When ordering champagne some people are not satisfled with the pop of the cork.” “No7” “No; they think the waiter-ought to | also fire a pistol. "—Wushlngton Her- ald. .~ Read Letter Days. “Most people have red letter days once in a while,” observed the pretty girl sweetheart, as she put the pe- rused missive back' in. its envelope, “but every day Is a read letter day for me.”—Norristown Times. The events of fortune are unexpect- ed and therefore can never be guarded against by men.—Axionicus. F Station Derolicts. In every station one may find those who do not take ‘trains or meet them, nor attend those who do. Some come to the walting room only to wait—re- spectable - derelicts still hoping that something will turn up, and wrecks who have given up hope. It is a warm place in winter, the seats are comfortable, ‘and ‘thoughtless passen- gers often obligingly leave newspapers behind them. . It makes good waiting. There are so few other places to walt —80 cruelly few for women adrift, but not yet foundered. Sometimes, to de- celve that meddlesome busybody, tbe station detective, they carry in travel- ing bags and pretend to be pulled down with' their' burdens, emptied long since at the pawnshops.—Jesse Lynch Willlams in Century.

'Sagar, whose business it ‘was- to settle the matter about the banns, was at once cross examined. “Oh, yes, vicar,” said he, “I knowed right welll. I knowed parties.” “But why did you not tell me? I should have forbidden them.” “Well, vicar, it was just this way, do you see. One of the parties was eighty- four and t'other eighty-six. I says to myself: ‘Lord, it can’t-last long.
