Character in Hair.

Lank hair, among the ancients, was
a sign of cowardice; auburn hair, or
light brown, evidence of great sus-
ceptibility to the tender passion, as
well as rare intelligence, industry and
peaceful dispositions; black hair was
not highly esteemed. the possessors Of
it being thought jealous and quarrel

aversion, a mark Of reprobation, even

Perhaps nc,a0ncert troupe ever play

recently that;ene belonging to Theo-

New Mexico. he and his company were
on special train, and as they pulled
out of Coolidge, their car was boarded
by a gang Of cowboys, who with
drawn ireYolyers demanded music OF

For moment all was commotion.

that a gattling gun had opened on
him.
Those who have seen Nh. Thomas
lead a orchestra and noticed how sprY
he was about getting there, can inn
agine how the words otithe cowboy
acted upon him. He looked from the
mild eye of the cowboy into the cold,
black, cheerless depths of his shooter,
and then, without stopping to argue
the point, grasped q a,ceupling- g-pin in
is,right hand and mounted the wood
box. In the meantime the other cow

cowboy what was eating him.. The,

to the gang to decide. and they came

gave orders for his horse. His work
man, misunderstanding him, himself
took the horse and rode rapidly to
town for a physician. The wounded
man went at once to neighbours and
asked for horse, recountihg his ad->
venture and insisting that he wanted
and must have medical aid at once
This neighbor made light of the mans
fears of hydrophobia and absolutely
refused to loan his horse. Fearful
mistake! Toelle was forced to remain,
! at home aud await the coming of the
physician. When that gentleman.
came, after much delay, he simply
cauterized the wounds of his patient,
and, though being informed fully as.
to the changed nature of the dog,s his,
strange freaks and actions, persistenly
assured Toelle and his family that
there was no cause to fear hydropho
A week passed away and the wounds
were rapidly healing, and at the end
of two weeks Toelle was as well as
ever and pursuing his labors as usual.

Chloe brought it and set it against

made a sudden plunge upon it with

Soldiers Pay in China.


The Chinese infantry soldier is paid
once a month, when he receives 81 taels of
silver. This sum, which is equal to about
10 sbillings of English money, is given to
him in scrap bullion; and during the
night preceding each pay day the pay
masters are husily engaged in weighing out
silver and making it up into neat little
packages for distribution. As soon as he
has obtained his share the soldier takes it
to the nearest shopkeeper or money
changer, who, in return for it, hands him
3, 500 copper cash, the aggregate weight of
which is quite as much as he can con-
veniently carry. Out of this the soldier
has to keep himself in food and clothing;
and the pay cannot, therefore be called
excessive.
A Chinaman, however, lives almost ex-
clusively upon rice, a months supply of
which costs a good deal less than / 1000
cash, and many private not only sup
ports a family upon the balance of his
earnings, but puts by few hundred cash

When picking oranges, instead of pull

"Turnips Is Feverish. J"

A Baltimore grocer bargained with a
farmer month ago for the delivery of
thirty bushels of turnips, but saw nothing
Of either until the other, day, when he in
quired of the farmer:
What about the turaips2"
Cant bring 'em in"
Whats the matter?"
"I reckon turnips is goin' to riz.
"Poohl What can happen to run the
price of turnips up?"
well, my son Reuben was over t'other
night and he says he read in his paper
that Russia is doing something or other,
and England has said something or other,
and that both want to fight about some
thing or other, and he thinks I'd better
hold on. Turnips is feverish, they is. and
a war or something or other would send
prices a-kiting.
