II has leaked out that one Of the PRINCIPAL

lady barber from San Francisco. She ia

OF the New Year. Her arrival was to have

10 bnrst forth on the vision OF Sunday
morning bald-heads like tho star OF the
orient; but the news OF her advent could
not be kept. Our reporter got hold OF it,
with the reserve that he would not give
away any OF the names. The good qHid-
nunc is very willing TO tell all he
can find out. He knows, too. how
modest and sensitive our bachelors
are, who always take the most remote seats
from the stage in San francisco when the
mold Of form" ia on exhibition. He
wants to put them on their guard that they
may not suffer too rude a shock to their
nervous systems. He apprehends that il
any one OF them should happen upon q
female barber suddenly and without warn
ing that he would run away in distress and
miss his chance to be- shaved. Our re-
porter also knows what q dread some OF our
reticent bald heads have Of being talked to
death. He felt it his duty to put them on
their guard against a person that is at once
a woman and Il barber. This timely hint,
he is sure, will keep him in their good
gracos, but whether they will not cultivate
sufficient courage in the meanwhile to 20
and take their chances for a shave, remains
to be seen. 1t may require some time to
get used to guch an innovation, but after
their diffidence has once been dispelled
they will not tremble any more. The fe.
male person who ia to make all this stir

where between IS and q years OF
age. She is tall and 1.-the, and has
a fresh, clear, rosy complexion, and very
largo blue eyes. Her hands are white,
soft and delicate, and her voice is like that
OF the tuneful Tyre. She has one trouble
about her, which as q faithful chronicler
OF events we cannot keep back and still be

be tolerated, however, by many Base
Rangers even if it last seven years or for
ever, for they have stood the same from
rude organs ever since they enjoyed the
luxury OF the first shave. They say that
Mademoiselle --, in the shop at tho
corner OF Market and Stockton streets,
had customers who never shaved before,
and those who always shaved, on account
OF her, shaved the more. They tumbled
over each other to get to her chair, and
when the lucky rustler got himself in posi-
ton and once stretched himself out to re-
ceive her manipulations all the rest glared
at him as il he was a burglar. Whom she

with her orbs turned meltingly
upon him. he feels something like an
electric battery under the skin, and hair
starts out from portions Of his barren
scalp where all previous "restorers" hGd
failed to move a sprout. When her arms
separate, inclosing his sconce and abe
grabs hold Of his off ear, drawing the
razor deity down his hardened cheek, he
feels as Milton felt when inspired to tell
OF paradise regained. It's bard on the
nerves. but it's nice. Next she hauls your
face towards her and leans forward, bring

The reporter hopes that this notice will
interfere with the matutinal snores OF
the Eureka bachelors and bald-hosds next
Sunday.
