The Elood Cnrs for Badness.

In q letter received yesterday by Dr..
NJ MaTbury, residing at the corner of
Independence avenue and Locust street,
this city, is related an incident which is
indeed marvellous, and, coming directly
as it does, is beyond all doubt true. The
letter is from Mr. Frank Marbury, a
cousin of DIR. Marbury, who is just re.
covering from frightful experience in
the Johnstown flood. For seven long
hours he battled with the waters for his
life. Every hour seemed day, but at
last he was rescued several miles from
the place where the hotel had stood.
The strange part of the story is yet to
come. Mr.. Marbury is 80 years of age,
and for twelve years he has been entirely
bald, and the top of his head had become
quite popular with the flies as summer
resort. He had used the wonderful hair
restoratives people read about in the
hopes Of starting the hair, but all to no
purpose; it refused to grow. Two days
after the food he noticed a downy SUBJ
stance all over the hitherto bald head.
AS time passed the down became hair,
which grew remarkably fast, and now
has reached the length of one inch all
over his head.-Kansas City Times.

Vacations NTiSIIRed.

The Lancet declares that many sudden
deaths are caused each year by misuse Of
the vacation season, and also afirms that
the experience of most city physicians
shows that overstrain is often followed
by prolonged illness. We know wise
lawyer who never did anything the first
dav of his vacation, as little as possible
the second; took a short walk the third,
two short walks the fourth, and not
until the eighth day was ready to climb
a mountain. By this cautious course he
grew stronger to the end, and returned
home with vitality enough to work till
the next outing came around. One can
make great change in his habits with
out detriment if he takes long time to
do it, but only young persons can risk
sudden changes, and they sometimes fall
victims to the strain.

SHE LIKES ORIGINAL PRAYERS.
Child Actress Marguerite Fields OJe"t@A
To "NoM ! lay Me Down to Sleep"

Child Actress Marguerite Fields OAje"t"A
To "Now l Lay Me Down to Sleep"
Marguerite Fields is, without doubt,
the most remarkable child actress in the
country She is scarcely 8 years old and
has played with Mr.. Oliver Byron in
The Upper Hand" THE Inside Track"
and Across the Continent" and every
where she is the leading attraction and
gets more recalls than any one else on the
bill.
Her rendition of comic songs is her
strong point, and her childish treble is
clear enough to fill the largest hall
The little one is full Of originality and
is always doing things which are not on
the programme. Mr.. Byron says he
never knows when she is going to appear
OF what she is going to do.
Once in the farce called "Reuben
Glue" she was standing on q chair hold
ing up a lraf of bread at which she gazed,
exclaiming: 1.-The world is mine!"
Clara Morris agent was in one of the
boxes, and Mr.. Byron, seeing him, said
to the little girl: You may get down
now, Clara Morris"
Instantly the little one replied: I'm
not Clara Norris"
"Who are you them"
I'm Ruebcir Glue" she said, and then
she sang, when the Reubins Nest
Again" 1t is needless to say that the
house came down.
Marguerite has little dog of which
she is very fond. She carries it to the
theatre with her, and once she inter-
rupted q very tender breakfast table
scene between two lovers by marching
on the stage and setting tho dog down
among the dishes.
The little one is quick at repartee and
! says some very funny things, though in
her innocence she is sometimes rather
irrevcrent. Once while travelling on a
sleeping car she begged to sleep with
Mr.. Byron. 1t was late at night, after a
! long performance, but the little girl was,
to quote Mr.. Byrons words, las fresh as
a daisy"
Have you said your prayers, baby?''
asked Mr.. Byron.
No, but III say 'em now" she re-
piled, and turning over on her face she
maze IOcg pelluon, then putting her
arms round Mr.. Byron's neck, she said:
"Now you say your prayers"
Il have said them"
But didn't hear you"
We'll, l certainly said them"
Say them over again, then"
"Oh, no." said Mr.. Byron. "That
wouldn't do. God hasn't time to hear
! people say their prayers price"
well, say little one just for me,
I God won't mind that"
In order to satisfy her Mr.. Byron be
gan to repeat: "Now l lay me down tc
sleep" when to his surprise Marguerite
dropped her devout mood and ex.
claimed:
oh, that's q chestnut! Say me 6
prayer out of your head"
With all her brightness and despite
the fact that she is made so much Of, the
little girl is as natural as child should
be. She seems to be all unconscious thai
she excites applause.
On one occasion she said: II wish the
people would stop clapping their hands
wouldn't have to sing SO loud then t.
make them hcar."-New York Journal
