beard repels us, and we thank fortune
that our own lady friends and kin are
not heavily bearded as this one. Any
woman afflicted with large growth OF
beard can find lucrative position as q
monstrosity in a dime museum. but
will find herself tabooed by her friends,
and especially her gentleman friends,
If she does.
Living skeletons, fat men and fat
women, midgets, dwarfs, and giants,
wild men from Borneo, and other un-
fortunate people, are the stock in trade
of dime museums. This stock In trade
never varies. 1t is always in fashion.
Those who visit dime museum for
the first time are struck by the plebe-
ian aspect of the people who throng
its galleries and its chamber of hor-
rors, and they may probably be struck
by the man who runs the electric bat
terry to try the machine. A placard Is
tackled up on the wall with the follow
ing eqUivocating remark printed there
on: Electricity free. Only ten cents.

Instantly my gloomy feelings were
driven away by the sun of JOY and
blessed the weather, the cabmen who
had stayed at home and in fact every
thing that had helped me to thus Sc

When / had formerly travelled be-
tween Clifton and Englewood L
thought that those four miles were the
longest ever heard of. but that night
it seemed as if we fairly flew along the
road, for we reached Englewood in
what seemed very short time. left
Ethel at her fathers door, and as L
kissed her good night said, Darling,
L won't go to California for several
months and then it will be on my
wedding trip"
The next dayII changed all my plans
and settled down in Englewood, and in
few months Ethel and l were mar
ried and took wedding trip to Cali
fornia. We often talk about our past
live and i tell her how near she came
to wrecking mine by her coquetry.
She always tells me how sorry she is,
but declares that she always loved me
and only leased me so in the hope
that would speak out and ask for her
hand, so she could say "yes."
Anyway | shall never forget the
night rode with Ethel from Clifton to
Englewood, and whenever L see cab

People who visit dime museums
should ask no questions and they will
hear no lies. If you see anything there
that battles your keen intellect and
causes n heavy sensation, as though
YOU had great weight on your mind,
go TO the manager and ask for an ex-
PLANTATION, and do not question the
freaks. When inspecting the hor-
rors OF the Inquisi,ion, which
is done up so artistically, aud
painfully lifelike, In wax, do not
let your emotions overcome you.
Remember that you paid your dime
expressly to see these horrors, and you
should appear as if YOU were enjoying
Yourself. 1t Is not considered good
form in Bridgeport, the swell" and
smell district of Chicago, TO evince any
emotion, either of pleasure or pain, at
the dark side of life in museum.
When you have wearied of the curl

10 pack my trunk and leave that place
the next day forever. AS l thought
Ethel was a coquette, L determined
she should not see me again, so L took
late train from the city and intended
leaving Englewood in the morning.
1t was terrible night. The rain
was coming down in torrents, the
thunder was roaring, and the sharp
flashes of lightning made the few pas
sengers in the car draw their heads
away from the window. 1t was the
kind of a night that would give man
the blues" If he had not the pleasure
of looking forward TO n comfortable fire
and cosy room awaiting him at home.
AS L had no anticipations of such a
Joy, but was looking forward to say
ing farewell to the familiar scenes of
my life, on the next day, my feelings
were decidedly morose. The train
sped on and / thought how happy l
could be if Ethel Linton were not heart
less. Then / thought of the misery of
being separated from the only woman
/ had ever loved, and, as my mind lin
gered on the subject, 1 clenched my
fingers until the nails were driven deep
into the palms of my hands.
At last we reached Clifton, and
alighted. Hurrying along the plat
form. to escape the rain, L reached a
cab, the only one standing there. l
engaged it, and jumped in. The long
train moved off into the darkness of
the night, and was just congratulate
ing myself on the fact that there were
no other passengers for Englewood,
who would disturb my gloomy thoughts
on my way there, when a trim, neat
figure came along the station platform.
1t was female, and mentally cursed
my luck in being compelled to ride
those four miles with a woman, and
most likely being compelled to con-
verse with her, when l wanted to be
alone with my thoughts. The driver
waited for her, and when she came up
said, I'm sorry, Miss, but this cab is
the only one here, and if you want to
get to Englewood you'll have to put up
