Is an Excusable Fault.
Willie Winter is one of the wits OF
the New York press, says Marshall P.
Wilder in his new book. He is a very
salemn-l looking fellow. and have heard
that he confines his humorous exuber-
ance to the columns of the newspaper
on whose staff he has been valuable
contributor for a good many years, but
the only time | ever heard him speak
in public he was quite equal to the
occasion. 1t was dinner at which
General Sherman presided. My name
was on the list. but perhaps the Cen
eral had mislaid his glasses. for in
stead of calling for Wilder he named
Winter. Winter, who had seen the
list himself. arose and remarked grave
ly: Il had found myself almost en-
tirely forgotten here, but General
Sherman, who never yet disappointed
any expectations which were made oil
him. looked for me in the person of my
esteemed friend. Marshall Wilder.
was not in the least disappointed. 1t
reminded me of an old yarn about a
negro preacher who used to open a
Bible at random when he went into the
pulpit, and one day he stumbled on a
chapter which is the terror OF young
people who attempt to commit the
Bible to memory, and read as follows:
And unto Enoch was born Trad, and
Trad forgot Mehujael, and Mehuiael
forgot Methusael, and Methusael forgot
Lamech, and Lamech took unto him
two wives and forgot Jabal Now, my
beloved bruddern. dis text am meant
to show you firstly dat dem old patri-
archs dey was mighty forgitful. Never
mind about the rest.

Pretend to lie In style.
IL Is becoming fashionable for men
to shave theft boards and 90 aronnd
with smooth faces. This applies nar.
hcularly to The young men who hava

oehrds ana mnsiaches as long as tba
points OF their boards. 1t Is not con.
sidered the best Of form for tbasa
young men to be seen In a public bar.
Der shop. OF course TO have their
faces constantly smooth they must
shave themselves or get shaved some
where but there is beginning be a
prejudice against sitting In a line In a
public barbe shop, just as there bas
been for some time past against sitting
on the public bootblack stands at the
street corners. A man must have bis
shoes shined. unless he wears patent
leather or russell shoes, and even then
they need some looking after, but he
Is expected to have the work done
In some place where he will not be-
seen during the process.
This recent within against appearino
In the public barber shops will not
hurt the barber shops any more than
the prejudice against public bootblack
stands among the same class OF men
has seriously injured the business OF
the bootblacks. The class OF men who
pay attention to ali these things is not
80 large as to hurt the trade OF mora
than dozen places.
The theory OF 1t is that a man ia
shaved by his valet and that every
man who can afford to be sufficiently
good form to pay attention to all these
things has enough money or credit to
have valet; or, if he has not valet,
to make bluff at it. On the same
assumption that his man looks after his
clothes and shoes Is the other assump-
ton that his man also shaves him. No
fashionable young man would be seen
taking his clothes to his tailor's to be
pressed, and though most of them who
have the creases 10 their trousers fire.
quently renewed get the work done at
their tailor's they make a pretense Of
having it done by their man, and TO
the other duties of this man, in many
cases a supposititious being, is added
the care of his masters face.
This fashion OF the smooth shaver
face is said to have come from the
actors. just as actresses influence the
styles Of dress of women, actors have
been to less extent influencing the
apparel and appearance of certain
class of men. The way OF wearing the
hair which was prevalent year or
two ago was begun by actors. Almost
all actors have smooth faces, especially
almost all the actors who pose on the
stage and who attract audiences OF
women to admire them.
The fashion OF having a smooth face
is Just coming in, and it has not yet
been taken up to a great extent. A
man may sacrifice his beard. but If he
has bad mouth or face which would
be harsh in outline without the curves
OF his mustache to change it, he will
not abandon his present advantages
quickly. N. Y. Sun.

The effects of mental shock on the
mind in causing permanent bad health
of mind are easily inflicted in the pc
Rod of infancy, early life and school
life. of which let one il ustration suf-

was under my observation as con-

from sudden distrust lie had In his
childhood an innate ~read Of deep
water, and he had at the same time
tutor for whom he held the
warmest affection, coupled with the
most absolute trust and conf
dence. In thoughtless and
unhappy moment this tutor became
possessed with the idel that he would
break his pupils dread of deep water
by pitching him into a pool where
they were accustomed to battle to-
gether at the deepest part There
was no actual danger, for the depth
was really not great, the pool was calm,
the boy could swim little. and in an
instant the tutor, a strong and skilful
swimmer, was in the water himself
rendering succor aud support. The
lad was brought to shore safely
enough. but the mischief of the mind
was inflicted beyond repair. The sur
face of trust was obliterated, and a
fixed distrust in the mind OF the youth
was set up for ever. II a skilful physi-
ologist could have discovered the seal
of trust in that youth, and could have
destroyed it mechanically. he could not
have inflicted more severe injury
