In general, about three-quarters of the men of the outfit require a shave for muster, and they are perfectly well aware that if they show tp in line with unshorn countenances at muster they are Mable to receive a severe calling down at the hands of the comman !- ing officer, if, indeed, their neglect of their beards does not procure them a term in the guard house for slovenliness. A Flourishing Business. Therefore, on the night before muster, the men who need things to be done to their hair and beards assemble in force in the barber's little detached hut and proceed to make him wish he had died when he was quite young. The growling is perpetual and terrific. As cach man turns up the barber hands him a check with a number on it indicating his place in the “next” column, but these checks make mighty poor balm for the alleviation of the soldiers’ wrath whose individual Procrastination has contributed to the crush. At 11 o'clock, when the trumpeter sounds “taps,” and all iights in the post have to go out, there ts still a Jam of mad soldiers in the parber’s wickiup, waiting to be shaven or shorn. These, of course, have to be turned out to wait until morn- ing to have their heads or beards spruced up. By dint of terrific effort the barber generally contrives to attend to all of his patrons by the time first call for muster goes. But it oftens happens that he hasn't had time to shave himself by that same time, an, humorously enough, no soldier is more commonly jumped upon by both adjutant and commanding officer for ne- glecting his beard than the company bar- ber himself. The man-of-war barber goes through much the same ordeal on the day before muster on shipboard, the only difference in the two situations being that the ¥ man, having a great many more patrons to attend to than the army barber, in- variably fails to get his men fixed up in time, so that at every muster inspection a large number of them are severely jolted for showing up in line with k-old beards that give them a savage 4 mar- derous aspect. Such men, who were un- able to make the barber's chair oa the previous day, in reply to the skipper sharp question, “What do you mean, sir, by appearing at muster with that disgrace- ful growth of beard?” either state that their faces are sore from excessive shav- ing, or that they are growing full beard: If a man makes the latter assertion, if he has never had the remotest int tion of permitting the hair on his face to grow, he has got to stick to it and allow his beard to sprout at least for weeks, for commanding officers of take especial note of such matters, an if at the next inspection the tar should show up with a clean shaven countenance, he would certainly be dosed by his skipper in a manner not to his liking for previous untruthfulness, PIANOS AND ORGANS.

On the big ships carrying crews of 500 or 600 men there are always several barbers to care for the hair and beards of the men. In the old days there was a rate of ship's barber, the holder of which drew $30 a month from the government, in addition to the money he gollected from the men for his work. That rate was abolished several years ago, however, for it was y to per- ceive that the moncy the ip’s shaver drew from the government was purely un- necessary velvet. Nearly all of the man-of- war barbers of the present day are land: men or ordinary They are not given the rating badges of petty officers for the reason that their barbering work consymes so h of their time that they could not possibly serve as petty officers. On the smaller cruisers, carrying crews of something like 250 men, only one man [5 detailed for barbering work, and, althoug: by charging $1 a month per head he makes: a big pay day at the end of his thre cruise, he does not often have the job of serving more than a quarter of the ship's company.

This is distinct from the two ordinary systems of electric car traction—the individual and the loco- motive car equipment. The first of these is seen in the ordinary street service—in the trolley car—which rune itself only, and the second is seen on the Nantasket line, and elsewhere,where the locomotive pulls a number of trail cars. In the new system the motorman stands in a vestibule cf original construction, whith either com- pletely isolates him, or is thrown open for the entrance and exit of passengers, according to the conditions, and his con- trolling levers, which are of the simplest description, are under his hand, while the controlling mechanism occupies the unique position of a space inside the canopy, over his head, where an inspector can reach it_without entering the car.
