Tho fire which occurred on Punchbowl on Thurs

some Cinnamon who had been visiting an old grave

1t is a pleasure to chronicle an instance OF the
utility and activity Of our much abused local troOpt

and who acknowledge their fault, cannot be made

over $50. The brooms are carefully stored AWAY
pending an opportunity to display their further
utility at the next fire.

Cutting the Hair.

1t may be that cutting and shaving
may for the time increase the action of
the growth, but it has no permanent
effect either upon the hair-bulb or the
hair-sac. and will not in any way add
to the life of the hair. Onthe contrary,
cutting and shaving will cause the hair
to grow longer for the time being, but
in the end will inevitably shorten its
term of life by exhausting the nutritive
action OF the hair-forming apparatus.
w hen the hairs are frequently cut, they
Will usually become eoarSer. often los

the hairs appear stunted in their growth

gray hairs crop up here and there. the

superstitious period of full moon). in
order to increase its length and luxuri-
ance as they bloom into wOmanhoOd and
manhood. This habit of cutting the hair
of children brings evil in place of GOOD.
and is also condemned by the distin-
guished worker in this Department.
Prof. Kaposi, of Vienna, who states that
it is well known that the hair of women
who possess luXuriant locks from the
time of girlhood never again attains its
original length after having once been
cut. PincuS has made the same Observa-
ton by frequent experiment. and he
adds that there is a general opinion that
frequent cutting of the hair increases its
length; but the effect is different from
that generally supposed. Thus, upon
one occasion he stated he cut off circles
of hair an inch in diameter on the heads
of healthy men, and from week to week
compared the intensity of growth of
the shorn place with the rest of the hair.
The result was surprising to this close
and careful observer, rs he found in
some cases the numbers were equal. but
generally the growth became slower af-
ter cutting, and he has never observed
an increase in rapidity. | might also
add that believe that many beardless
faces and bald heads in middle and adj
vancing age are often due to constant
cutting and shaving in early life. The
young girls and boys seen daily upon
our streets with their closely-cropped
heads and the young men with their
clean-shayen faces are year by year by
this fashion having their hair-forming
apparatus strained DR.. Shoemaker.

Life en- the Farm.

AS to its drudgery, whatever has been
the case in the past, where there were
stumps to be pulled and mortgages to
be lifted from almost every field; when
it was 4 long way to market, and the
buyer paid for produce in ''trade;"
when almost all implements were la
boriously hewn out at home OF clumsily
hammered out by the village black
smith-there is, happily, less drudgery
On the farm now, and less need of it
every year. Taking the year through,
the working hours of q man on a farm
are no longer than those of section
hand on the railway, or an artisan in
the shop, who has his own garden to
hoe before breakfast or after supper.
The busy lawyer and the doctor in
average practice work harder and long
er than the farmer. The grocer and
the editor and the book-keeper see less
of their children in their waking hours
than the farmer who sometimes envies
them their ''easy life 1t must be
conceded, of course, that the profits OF
farming are not so large on the average
as those which are realized by men who
are successful in mercantile life. But,
such as they are, they are surer-twenty
fold surer, at least. Large profits are
always contingent on large risks.

and once after. This seems heroic treat

the ground from under the terminating

it becomes stirring the soil rather than

A couple of young ranchmen were

few days ago, when they eSpied a
large cinnamon bear perched in the crotch

bear is dead bear, they determined to

One of them launched his lasSo and the
next moment had the satisfaction of

of course he had no mercy.
The contractors on one of the rail
roads down East. finding it impossible
to keep track of the Italian laborers by
their unpronounceable names. fell upon
the plan of numbering them. The num-
Der of each is painted in plain figures on
the seat of his pantaloons. Before be-
ginning work in the morning, at noon
and again at night the men are formed
in lire, and the foreman passes in the
rear of them and takes down each num-
Der, in orderto ascertain who is present,

beneficial in two ways-the men arc
easily organized, rs they are also kept
from sitting down too much for fear
of rubbing out the figures.

No Time to Talk to Gould.

At the International Depot says the
San Antonio Times, the five Pullman
cars containing Jay Gould and party
were left on the track near the regular
passenger train. Gould, it is said, step
ped from his car into the regular train,
and began poking all sorts of ridiculous
questions about the road to Conductor
Marshall, the Pullman conductor. Mar
shall did not know who Gould was, of
course, but answered him politely for
some little time. although he was very
busy. Finally, however, he said: Il
haven't got time to talk to you now, sir,
Is I have work TO do" and left Mr..
Gould to pursue his inquiries by him.
self. Marshall, it is said, was greatly
surprised later when he learned to whom
he had been talking.

A HAIRLESS Son.

Sylvester Mackson is the son of old
Tom Mackson, deceased, who was one
of the richest and closest men in Aus
tin. He was large landowner, and
never was known to sell foot of land.
After his death, Sylvester, who is very
fast, came into possession of the prop
erty, and the first thing he did was to
sell q fine lot on one of the principal
streets. A few days afterward, an old
friend of his father, Col. Dodson Van
Slycke, met Sylvester on the street, and
rebuked him for selling the old man.
land.
*'Why, the old man must have turned
in his grave, Sylvester, when you sold
that lot the other day" said Col. Van
Slycke.
Never mind" replied Sylvester,
who was a little tight, the old man
will come all right. I'm going to sell
another lot next week. and then he will
turn back again in his grave
1t is needless to add that the good
people of Austin refuse to recognize
Sylvester when they see him on the
street.-Ier0s SifJings.

A Moth or-in-T,aw.

A traveller saw a woman take man
by the collar, yank him up the steps in
to railroad car, jam him down into q
hot seat near the stove, pile up va
lise and two big brown baskets with
loose covers and long handles at his
feet, shove lady into his lap and
say:
Nov, sit there until [ help Mary
Jane on the car, and don't move till

When the woman reached the door
the traveller said to her:
SIS that man your husband?'
.'N-A-W-W!!n' roared the woman.
''He's my daughters husband, and she

A Tumbler Under the Hat,

Awriter on the inner life of the House
of Commons says: mo member likes to
be seen bringing in a glass of water at
some indefinite time before his speech.
Things may turn up so that he finds no
opportunity to speak and to be left with
supertiuous glass of water in such Cir
cumstanceS is little ludicrous. Still
to most speakers the refreshment is in
dispensable, and the usual course taken
is to depend upon the courtesy of gen.
tlemen sitting near you to 90 and bring
the water while you are on your legs.
If Mr.. Ashmead-Bartlett, brother-in-law
of the Baroness, is observed entering the
House with his hat carefully balanced
in his hand, the initiated we'll know
what is to the fore. He has got a tum-
bier Of water in his hat, and this he Sc
cretes under the bench before him when
he intends to speak. Sometimes, if the
Grafton is to be long, he repeats this
maneuver, and once disclosed the exist
ence of three several tumblers under
the bench before him. The other night
he threw himself on the charity of the
Irish members near whom he sat, and
one of them brought in a large tumbler
of liquid which, if it was simply water,
justified all the hard things Major Frank
Bolton, in his report, says as to the color
of our London water"
