SHAVING IN OLD TIMES

Shaving, in the olden days, was a.
lengthy operation, and English, barbess
devised various methods of amusing
their customers while awaiting their
turn. They generally provided some
musical instrument, such as, guitar or
either. In old pictures, the shaving
basin fitted into the chin.;: until recent
period BARRIERS were won't to, bleed pa
tent and even extract teeth. In London
the familiar BARRIERS pole, with its red
spiral coil of color, is a, Renaissance of
the staff the surgeon gave his customers
to grasp while he was being bled. The
tape or bandage was twisted round the
pole, which when not In use was placed
outside the door. This staff was by Or
der left outside surgeons door, as a
sign of his profession, and for conyen-
fence the painted pole was substituted
as sign, and the right to use it was ex-
tended to BARRIERS about the year 1890.

The Difference.

The male and female clerks in Wash
ington are thus contrasted: It is COM
mon enough to see male clerk saunter-.
ing through the corridors during Office
hours, alone and unattended, but fe-
male clerk never. They always are
found in pairs. When female clerk
wants to leave her desk and go out into
the corridors, similar desire is sure to
seize another female clerk, and they 60
out together. There has never been
case recorded where female clerk has
left her work during ofice-hours and APP
peared IN the corridors alone. There are
always two of them, generally with arms
twined affectionately, and, at the same
time, gracefully, about each other, slowly
pacing the corridors. This fact is sin
gular, and may be important. There
may be q scientific, perhaps psyche
logical, reason for thus phenomenon. It
can't be because of their social natures,
for when they leave the departments for
their homes this dual condition of affairs
no longer exists. They go along the
streets alone, but in the corridors Of the
department they are found in pairs.
This phenomenon is an interesting one,
and should be investigated, and no
doubt rich results would be obtained
and much light thrown on the vexed
problem of the female nature.

DR.. DELANEY says if you sleep on
your right side your dreams will be old
and faint remembrances the dreams
are apt to be childish and illogical; Sleep
ers on the right side also compose verses.
They send them to the newspapers next
day. Sleepers on the left side dream
intelligent dreams about recent events.
SO if man wants to dream what his
wife used to say to him and about him
before they were married he must sleep
on his right side; If he wants to dream
Of what she says to him now, he must
sleep on his left side. ss4.ss.

The word VENDETTA (vengeance>
originated, !, is said, in Corsica, where
the practice was formerly general, and
still prevails in remote parts OF the
island. The custom, one writer re-
marks griaaly, fonriskes among the
Bedouins. Traces of it are found some-
times among the Montenegrins, Alban-
ians, Druses and Circassians and, in
deed, it may be said that the custom
prevailed at one time or another among
every tribe and nation. Whenever a
person was murdered, the practice
among those holding to this custom was
to avenge the death; and that duty was
imposed upon the son, brother or near
est kiRsman, who forthwith sought pri-
vate vengeance upon him who shed the
blood of the relative. AS the admins
tration of justice became more and
more settled social institution, the GUS
tom disappeared, although Corsica still
clings to it in its most cruel form, and
on that island it plays most important
part In social life.

Tinkerinx over Tho Tariff.

2osTON, Aug. 25.-The tariff commission
was addressed by Ed. Latkins, OF Boston, on
the sugar importing interests. He favored a
reduction in the tariff on sugar because the
consumers would tfzus get it at reduced
price. The increase of consumption would
remove the temptation TO adulterate and
eventually induce Spain from comfy and
good feeling to reduce her duty on an article
exported from this cOuntry,and open her mar
kets TO American manufacturers. James
Thomas, president of the Standard Sugar
company, of Boston, endorsed the
views of the last speaker and said
his company asked for a law which
will not discriminate against the importation
of low priced sugar. D Townsend, OF the
Continental com pany, of Boston, advocated an
advalorem duty. The present law, he be-
ieved, discriminates in favor of certain classes,
notably those on the Pacific coast, as against
the East. This is partially due to,the Hawaiian
commission. Adjourned until tomorrow.
