onions. The trouble is that persons are
afraid TO eat them. because they make the

AN EXPENSIVE SHAVE,
what John Jacob Astor, Jr., Was Com
Pelled to Pay His Barhar.

"ha' Oohn Jacob Astor, Jr., Was Com
Pelled to Pay His Barber.
Young John Jacob Astor, Jr., perhaps
the richest youth in the United States.
IL would seem, from an incident that oc-
cured In barber-shop the other day.
lacks that closeness in money matters
that stood his grandfather in such good
stead when he began tile fortune that
the boy is now spending. The barber
that shaved Mr.. Astor is remarkable
in his weird appreciation Of ethics. He
would deal honestly with mon of ordi-
nary means, but he has an abnormal
socialistic idea that the millionaire is
legitimate prey for him. Therefore he
resolved to get very large price for
shaving young Mr.. Astor If he could
manage 1T. After finishing his work he
brushed Mr.. Astor's coat for him with
great care and held out his hand for the
Dill that the millionaire was extricat-
ing from fat roll. 1t is one of Mr..
Astors habits to pay for small items
out or one huge roll of bills. The bar
Der passed across the room to his cash
drawer and then, returning, handed to
Mr.. Astor two pieces Of silver. The rich
youth looked at the money and then at
the barber.
"Wh-wh-wh-y, what's this?" he said.
Change for the dollar you gave me,
Sir" responded the barber.
"But, cawnfoHnd it, I gave you a
twenty-dollar bill"
"Oh, no, sir" said the barber. "Onlv
a one: Look at my drawer If you like,
ana you'll see there is nothing larger
than a one there"
Several of young Astor's friends were
with him and so he did not care to dis
cuss such vulgar question as money.
He made up his mind that it was a dol
lar he had given up, and jammed his hat
down over his ears and went for a walk
on the avenue. The barber tells about
his getting $3.50 for shave.
"And I'd take hundred of that
young fellow If 1 could" says he.
A strange case, surely, of keen ton
sorial artistry and ingenious criminal
ity, and this sort Of thing is not uncom-
monin New York.-N. Y. Star.

Americas Valuable Mineral Springs.

DR.. Frank Bosworth, the eminent
throat specialist of New York, who is
now in Paris, thus discourses on Ameri-
can springs: "No country in the world
has more valuable mineral springs than
America. Their lack of recognition l
believe to be due simply to the fact that
their waters have not been SO thoroughly
tested as those of the European resorts;
still more, that medical men in charge
either have not or cannot enforce per-
feet system or regimen which regulates
cures well adapted to Americans. The
system of the foreign spas is largely
organized for well-fed, beef-eating Eng
lishmen or robust Germans. who, as a
result of sedentary habits or of overeat-
ing, have got their digestive apparatus
out of order, and for these three or
four weeks course of treatment at Carls.
bad, with its severe system, is~of i'm
mense benefit. If, on the other hand,
you object to this course an American
whose disorders are the result of over
work, and whose nervous system has
been severely taxed, the result is liable
to be disastrous, At most well.known
European resorts the physicians in at
tendance recognize these facts and avoid
their dangers. These facts should be
warning to the large number of travelling
Americans who are tempted to make a
trial of foreign waters without profes.
