THE BARON S WIGS.
A Clever Little Arrangement by Whic
He Dec lived His Friends.

A Clever Little Arrangement by Which
He Dec c'iVed His Friends.
The Baron, who was a man of society, and
devoted TO his youth, discovered that li-
hair was growing gray aud somewhat thin
Could the Baron de X. consent 70 put on
those signs of agel Not at all But his hair
generally continued 10 decrease, and the
gray hair to increase in proportion 10 the
rest.
He thought the matter over until he W s
in danger OF losing what hair no had, and
last hit upon a happy thought He went h.
a wig.ma1er aud ordered no fewer than
eight wigs, all made OF the same hair, and
all closely resembling the color Of his own
just a little more youthful perhaps, and
certain. y more cOpious.
The wlg-maker was astonished at such an
order, aud still more asrouished when the
Baron dc X. ordered him 10 have the hairui
one wig left pretty long, for the prevailing
fashion; the hair of the next wig just a lit
tie shorter than that; and so on, BY very
gradual reduction, down 10 one which was
quite short
Then The Baron de Y. put on the wig with
the shortest hair for a week; next week I,
put on the one with the next longer head ol
hair; the third week, the third wig; anu
thus 10 the eight week; and then some one
was pretty sure b exciaim;
why, X. why dom you have your hair
cut}"
Then the Baron came out ia his shortos 81
haired wig, an resumed tho succession.
And nobody imagined tIal ne wore a wig d
all; for who ever knew the hair on a wig g.
grow.

Forty Determined AntI-Pepper-in-the.
sOupists Win a Great Victory.
The autocrat of the seaside resort IS no
the man with his millions, but the hote
cook. The clerk in the office may imagine
that he owns most of the earth, and the
head waiter may feel that he has a war
ranty dec of the remainder, but when yo,
come right down to facts the boss of IA
kitchen is the boss of the ranch. He is thC
unseen power behind the throne to which al
bow.
at our hotel the soup had Invariably been
seasoned so high with cayenne pepper thai
not one out of ten could more than taste IT,
says Il writer in the Detroit Free Press
The same was true of the deviled clans
One day made kick, and in five minutes
| had half dozen guests with me. We
interviewed the landlord and his reply was
~ have nothing to say about 1t. Yol
must go to the chief cook"
We sought an interview with that mag
nate. He was a colored man with the
dignity of Roman Senator. We made our
complaint, aud he replied
Il season dat soup an dem clans to suit
my taste"
"But IL doesn't suit ours"
"Can't help dat, sah.''
1--WE want less pepper"
Cant help dat"
do you refuse to make changel"
81 sartinly do, sab. lows nobody to tell
me what to do"
We returned to the verandah and went
into convention. Every minute added TO
our numerical strength, and in quarter or
an hour we numbered forty men. Then H.
was unanimously
''ResOlUed, That If the cook refuses to use
less pepper we seek some other hotel"
Delegates were appointed to wait on the
landlord, and he replied:
"Gentlemen, l am sorry, but dare not
interfere"
Forty rooms We're vacated, forty trunks
packed and then mine host wilted. He
called in the cook, and, though that iudivid-
ual attempted TO stand on his dignity. ne
had to wilt. BY this time the excltemenj
was intense, and had the forty gone they
would have been followed by hundred
more. "Less pepper" was the watch,
word all over the house, and it meant a
great deal TO the landlord We kicked, we
saw, we conquered, aud the next soup and
clans exactly suited the popuar taste. Tho
cook still the unseen power behind the
throne, but he has skipped a cog and no one
is afraid Of him any longer.

we have three equal factors iu inter
