Eaid Headed Sinners.

Bald headed men are becoming very pop ular, especially when they combine good nature with their badness. All men of fam fly should be bald, as it is much more easy to enjoy married life. A little oil rubbed on the bald spot, or & snyder artistically painted on it will be sufficient protection from the inquisitive fly. Badness can be acquired as other habits, in different ways, and also purchased at the family drug store, but generally in an adultelated form. Some acquire the art by sleeping in night caps, others by not; some get it by wearing their hats at camp-meeting, and others are snatch ed bald headed. An attentive wife also pro- notes the distinction, but sometimes only in spots, when hair restorer has to be resorted to to complete the process. We saw three bald headed men at a dance recently and they were enyied by all the benedicts, par ticularly by those who were to attentive to the pretty girls. Bald husbands can com init almost any discretion by hiding the broom. Our better three-sixths is trying new process on us and we may be seen, in our leisure moments, amusing the baby, and the hair is saved for pin cushion. Bald headed women are not fashionable or hand- some.-Pilberry Q. Scroggins.
 The present washout is probably more di- sasterous than any that has occurred on the Southern Pacific road. North of Los An geles miles of track are washed out and this side there are also several. The Company, with it's usual promptitude, has large force at work repairing the breaks, and the trains are running both directions from Yuma.
