Mans Hair Cut with lire.

There were men and women, small
boys and girls of all ages, from up
to 43 years, gazing down into the base
ment barber shop. whose front window
was just below. There middle aged
man, with raven black hair and pair
Of lustrous eyes, sat, all gowned and
silent, in the BARRIERS chair. But
what was the barber doing with his
little torch, lighted and flaming, pass
ing it to and fro over the customers
head That was what puzzled the
crowd. That was the thing that at
tracted hundred pairs of wondering
eyes and caused passers-by to stop and
crane their necks up over the should
ers of those who had reached the scene
just before them. A street blockade,
or possibly riot. might have resulted
II the barber had not soon finished his
mysterious task. The flame on the
end of the little torch was xtinguish-
cd, the customers hair properly oiled
and combed, and his check handed
to him as he rose from the chair with
that furtive, admiring glance into the
mirror which every man INDUCES upon
all similar occasions.
"Cutting the gentleman's hair with
fire ?" exclaimed the barber, as be saw
reporter before him. "Oh, no, that
is not what was doing. Twas giving
him an anti bald-headed SINCE. When
a mans hair begins to come out we
take a little wax taDer. light one end
of it and pass the fame over the ends
of the hair, as it is held away from
the scalp with the comb. BY thus
smuggling the ends of the hairs it is
supposed falling out may be prevented
though don't know how much truth
there is in it. Mebbe it don't do any
good at all, but the BARRIERS can stand
1t if the customers can. 1t takes a
half dollar to get SINCE like that.
New process? Oh, no; it's pretty near
as old as the barber business"

TWO FAMILIES LEFT.
High License in United States
Courts.


The Ohio liquor law has been sustained,
in an important sense, by the decision OF
the United States Circuit Court, judges
Walker and jackson concurring, which
refuses a restraining order asked by a
saloon keeper. In the decision the court
laws down some principles of wide appli-
cation. The Dow law, which imposes a
special and heavy tax upon liquor sell
ing. does not cofict, the court holds, with
the constitution OF the United States; 1t
does not deprive the complainant of
his property, but sis only police regu-
lation in the interest of public morals
and for the common good; and although IL
NAV IN some measure Affect the value of
his property or interfere with it's use in
PURPOSES for which IL was obtained, IL
does not thereby deprive him OF his prop
erty TO any greater extent than large
class Of Legislation, both State and ma
tioual, that has not been questioned In our
public laws" The fact that this applica-
ton was made to the United States rather
than to a State court warrants the infer
ence that the complainant did not expect
from state Interpretation OF the law q
more favorable decision.
but the wide division between this and
some other decisions In cases of similar
nature will attract attention. Prohibi-
ton has been In some Instances embar-
raised by decision IN Kansas and an
other in Iowa, tending TO the conclusion
that some compensation could be claimed
by brewers and distilleTs II their property
was rendered valueless by State enact
ment. Whether this position be sound or
not, II is instructive 10 have 1t judicially
distinguished from the legal import of a
high licenee law, which taxes, but does
not render the property necessarily OF no
value.

A Mexican War Romance.

READING, PA, Oct. ia strange
story was developed in County Register
Strunk's office TO day when Judith Pau
lev, lady 70 years old, set forth by Pc
tition that after forty years had elapsed
she discovered al last that her husband,
whom she bad incurred as dead during
all that time, was not dead, but that ne
had been living within fifty miles of her
all the time entIroly unknown to her.
Samuel W. Pauley and his wife, the
above named Judith, resided at Allentown
forty years ago. They had several chill
dren. When the Mexican war broke out
Pauley enlisted and was brave soldier.
Some one must have maliciously written
to him while he was absent that his wife
and babes had died, and when the Next
can campaign WAS over Pauley, dreading
to 90 back TO his old nome 10 find only the
graves of his dear ones, located at Wo-
melsdorf, small town fifty miles away,
where be lived until he died.
His wife continued living at Allentown.
and with her children concluded that hus-
band an d father had persisted in Mexico.
Hence it was that for forty years they
lived within fifty miles OF each other, each
thinking the other dead.
TWO FAMILIES LEFT.
Pauley, believing himself wid0wer,
married again and reared family of chill
dren. Recently he died, aged 70 years,
and his estate was worth over $4,000.
Letters of administration were granted to
Joseph Helsinger, who married daugh-
ter by the second NJ arriage. In the news
papers the original Mrs. Pauley, who had
never married again, read of the old MeXi-
can soldiers death and her curiosity was
aroused. She sent a man TO Womelsdorf
TO inquire into the matter, and to her
great surprise learned that it was her own
husband who had just died. she now
claims to be the legal widow and wants
what is hers Of her long absent husbands
estate.

The Mating Of Human Beings.

The mating of human beings is mat
ter beyond the science of man. AS near
as may be, God joins two sonls. The
causes Of selection are unknown, and we
have little hope Of their discovery. This
we do know: Whatever breeding to Sc
cure brains has SO far been had, has been
complete failure. Now and then there
has been line Of smart men-often a
family of smart people, but we believe
the union of poet with Philistine is
more apt to produce a remarkable issue
than the union Of two poets. What in
stinct makes the sad philosopher to wed
a merry, unthinking wife. may not be
inquired into. What instinct fills fat
man with love for lean wife, or a short
woman for tall husband-who can tell !?
WHY a tow headed woman should despise
beautiful blonde mustachio" is an
other hard question.
But as to the progress Of man: 1t is
certain that we cannot make any great
advance until we come to better knowl-
edge of the limitation of man. Already
business men are killing themselves, on
every side, because they overestimate
their powers Of recuperation. Undoubt-
edly nature is at work in every love af-
fair to restore disturbed balance. : Per-
haps life has largely to do with magnet
ism. The mere presence Of an object
tionable man is worse than are his words
or actions. If a man overwrought or
overlooking in the mind fall in love. be
not unlikely seeks flow Of magnetism
toward him that may restore his vitality.
It is almost certain that he will fly from
the absorptive soul that adores him for
his mental grandeur. He wants none OF
that for it saps him, and after safety
throws him away. How to raise William
Shakespeares aud Newtons and Darwins
and Ericssons is not to be known just
now. 1t is good philosophy which
speaks OF them as tho products OF an age.

for a supply of red sandstone! to- be used

signments of this new stone will arrive
about the middle Of next week. Stone
masous are being looked around for, and

There is a report that a change will
soon be made in the superintendency Of
