Get your nner," pursued the prac-
tical Grace, ''You look almost starv-
ing, aud as for me, I'm ravenous.'
With a cheering nod she parted from
Mabelle, ana went TO her own quarters.
The tabls was spread, and Grace,
throwing ner hat and mantle, was
about t5r'1; the bell for dinner Gor In
Lawronca street that meal was usually
taken in he middle Of the day.. whcna

She ened it, and was reading it.

a ring-a strange, trembling, yet
loud, importunate ring at the front
door, beginning, as it were, timidly,
and then repeated loudly. So strange
a sound was it that Grace forgot the
"rayenous" hunger she had spoken OF,
forgot her letter, and stood SUI, her
head raised, listening.
Presently the front door was opened,
and Grace could hear nothing that
passed, only that the door closed again.
and some one came in. Thcn-it all
seemed like weird dream-the parlor
door was pushed open, and Mabelle
stood there looking like some unhappy
little ghost; she seemed TO have shrunk
away and become shorter, smaller,
thinner, during the five or six minutes
which had elapsed since Grace parted
from her. Her face was white,
her lips open, her eyes distended. her
whole aspect one Of horror unmiti-
gated.
Child, child, what is the matter?"
cried Grace, going to her and grasping
her arm, chilled by the look OF despair
in the young face.
Don't touch MEL said Mabelle. in a
hoarSe whisper, shrinking away from
her. Il am mot fit for you TO touch,
but You must know. Oh, she osght not
to have LEFT it all to me; indeed, she
ought not!'
In her quivering hands she held pa
per, which Grace, with an uncontrolla'
bic impulse TO know the worst, took
from her hand and read, to broken
accompaniment of scattered words ant

PacuIiarlt.es OF BaZ0r5 md the Effect
on Their N'r,

There it goes for the cond time

ber In a downtown ,Onsorial parlor, as
he held up n razor and looked at II in a
puzzled manner He stropped the
blade and again applied it TO the chin
of the soap-bedaubed man in his chair.
The facial contortions of the man, the
rasping sound and the look of disgust
on the barbers face plainly showed
that all was not right. He tried several
razors, but they would not work.
Then he borrowed razor from the
boss and succeeded in scraping some of
the hair from the face of the customer.
Judging from the remarks of the Gus
toner after the operation was per-
formed, he scraped something more
than hair. After the man left, the
barber went TO the boss and said:
THAT razor has gone back on me
again. He spoke as though all hope
had departed.
That's your own fault" coolly OBJ
served the boss. Didn't ] tell you to
put Il near the stove wbcn we locked
up last nightp You can't expect a
razor to stand by You if you neglect to
treat it right" -

a reporter besought the boz, to tell him
sometime about ralors
"Every barber has his pet razor" he
began. whenever beard comes in
that cant be touched by any OF the
regular working razors the barber takes
out h.s box and picks out his favorite
razor. The barber believes that that
particular razor will cut any beard, and
its previous performances makes this
belief reasonable Gradually he begins
10 respect that razor and to devote es-
pecial care to H. When il goes back on
him he is lost. lie almost believes that
the razor is thing OF life. Why, !
have seen BARRIERS accuse another OF
foodooing' their pet razor. "
What is the matter with this bar
ber's razor? l see he Is soaking II in
hot water" said the reporter. "
"Cold weather and undue exposure.
The edge Of q razor is very delicate
thing. Heat and cold affect it. Under
strong magnifying-glass the edge Of a
razor which has been exposed TO the
cold would seem like saw. Hot water
throws the little particles back into place
und makes the edge smooth. A sudden
change IN the weather always affects
