"A young fellow has got to have consid-

said a tonsorial artist. Il went to learn the
trade, and had been in the shop about a
month, when l heard of a man who wanted
a barber who had had a years experience.
l applied and got the job. The first occu-
pant of my chair in my new place was Nh
elderly gentleman, who had a beard like
stubble. / didn't know how to strop a ra-
zor, bnt j made an attempt, and suppose in
doing so l took of what edge there was on
the blade. My customer WINGED a good
deal, but / got through with him finally,
and in reply TO a question by the boss he
said he was satisfied. The next occupant
of MY chair was a man whose face was nil
wrinkles. When he left the shop he was
holding onto his face. / overheard him
tell another customer to look out and not
get into my chair.
Things went along smoothly for several
days, when an accident happened. Two
men came into the shop. One was n
countryman, who said he had never been
shaved by a barber. His companion told
would never shave himself again. He con-

should never shave him again, and left for
a surgeon, who lived opposite.
We don't have 10 do things as they did

The Fourth Michigan rendezvoused at
Adrian in 1871, occupying the new college
buildings. The boys were not dead to this
world even while in training for the service
OF their country. A regimental drill was
quite a pageant in those days, and we had
many spectators, the camp grounds beirg
thronged like a fair on sunshiny days. The
soldier boys were pets, of course; every
body praising and eomplimenting us for
goi. ng, and expressing the belief that it
won ID not be for long.
An ong the %annoyances were a multi
plicit, Of peanut, apple, tobacco, and cigar
peddlers - mostly women and children
but there was one old ~saloon- keeper, who,
not satisfied with his city trade, also
peddled. General Martin 3. and others
decided to play a practical joke on him to
even up for his ay%aricious disposition. The
General secured for the occasion a dozen
or more volunteers, and We marched in
regular order up to the city until in front
of the saloon. Here, beer was ordered as a
commissary supply, and the demand agreed
to FOR the company.
Then followed filing in at the open door,
drinking, falling back, and countermarch-
ing outdoors, to again file in at the open
door. drink, ETC., until all in the company
had thus evoluied three times, each time
taking n cigar. Upon the successful COM

merchant by the proper order on the CON-
missary, signed with Il fictitious name, and
We marched away in all the pomp of sue
cessful war. This was our first charge, and
you see we captured the enemy. We never
knew whether the order ON the commissary
was honored or not. One thing certain, we
had a royal good laugh when we got back
to quarters at the success of our ruse.

pretty Stor, About Miss Telseas.

A pretty story. if one could believe it. is
told BY the Paris correspondent Sf II Vienna
patef. A short time ago a matinee ifittsicale
was given by the Duchess Lamotte, aud
among the guests was the charming bride
elect 0f President Cleveland, shen In Paris
completing her trosseau. The youfig lady
was the object Of many marks OF distinc-
ton, the high aristoctacy her,
and there was much talk OF her position.
One lady, the danghter-in-law OF the
Duchess de Pelsigny, condoled with Miss
Folsom because she would have no title as
the wife of a republican President. All
would be well. only you would haze no
title" she said: you will only be called
Mrs. Cleveland" But that name is only
for strangers" was the mnswa of the fair
American; "the President has for intimacy
conferred upon me ii very particular title.
Everybody looked up curiouslv. aud blush
ing deeply. Miss Folsom added; II calls
me-his darling. Can a wife desire u let-
ter title?" The hostess embraced her
amiable guest, temarking: "You are right,
and you appear to ME as if you would keep
the title to the end of your life. Pail

Till the Doctor Comes.

At Inverness last summer / saw from
a distance q little boy fall from the high
wall near the bridget being at the
other side of the rivera height OF
probably fifteen feet. A sturdy High.
lander marched around and shouldered
him. From the shrieks of the lad thus
roughly mounted, I felt sure a bone
was broken, and found out afterward ]
was right.
The accident put me in mind to say
here that We cannot be too careful in the
manner we lift or carry a person who
has received an injury of this kind.
Oh! fancy, if you can, the agony pro-
duced from, say, a fractured thigh rude
~ handled, the jagged end of the bone
perhaps thrust through the quivering
flesh.
Keep a wounded or injured person on
the level if possible; be very, very
gentle. The handiest of all stretchers
is a large shutter or door, with o mat
tress or pillows on it. Or o plaid or
blanket used as q hammock will do, or
a net Hammock itself if one be handy.
While M party is carrying home, or
to a chemists shop, the injured person,
some must be sent to procure sur
gical assistance.
The sooner surgical aid is got the
more chance of a speedy recovery will
the patient have.
Be careful not to give brandy in in
juries to the head. You might commit
q fatal error!
The best way to distinguish a frae.
ture from o di~slocation il to find out by
manipulation whether there is motion
in the injured part. In dislocation the
bone is immovably fixed.
Many dis!ocations can be treated sue

Just a word about street accidents.
Somehow or other, in such cases, n
Of the crowd usually turns out to be q
surgeon; but if not, let one be speedily

with oil the respect due to crowds in
the latter end of the nineteenth centu-
ry, to stand back and give the patient
air. On q summer night he may do
better. for a time, out Of doors than in
