to mind. One was described 10 me by a
party TO it. droll French barber full of
anecdote, who used to operate upon my

stories; for while listened he talked, and
while he talked he cut. He had kept a shop
in a native country town, and thither used
frequently to go young demoiselle, closely
watched by her duenna. Her hair was
curled in papers which were letters to her
lover. The hair dresser took these out and laid
them aside, replacing them when necessary
with others which were letters from the for
hidden youth.
This curl-paper love-making went on for
months the end of it does not concern u.s.
The second expedient was witnessed in
Seville. At dark, young don stole beneath
q lofty window, unscrewed the handle of his
walking. stick, drew out length after length
of its tubular interior, and fitted the parts
like fishing-rod; he put a mouJh-piece at
each end, and raised one end to the envied
lattice. A head appeared and as long as the
spectators patience lasted be saw lips and
