Mr.. Nesbitt, the dramatic critic OF the
the London Times, made a curious state
ment the other evening. writes Eugene
Field. We were discussing American
humor and he said: American numor
has sort OF stoical gTimness when can
be traced directly think. TO the inter
marriage OF the whites with the aborlgin-
al Indians" Now, what sort OF 40 an
swer is one to make 70 an argument OF I'us
kind:
Nine special agents have been appointed
by the census bureau 10 collect the record
ed indebtedness of Kansas: one. OF the
number has declined TO serve, Ieavi
eight men TO visit and abstract the recoros
of the offices of the registers OF deeds ~

ton OF the required time Is demanded.
Philadelphia Record: Senator ingalls,
| lately made the sweeping assertion that
every man should shave himself. Inc
gentleman from Kansas fails to specify
| the particular reasons which have brought
him to such a frame of mind, but the H.
| ference Is fair that a gentleman so guatu-
ed IN his statements and so careful 10 Verl-
fy the facts TO which he gives utterance IN
the senate chamber and III public prlnt,
must be speaking from a personal expert

In point of fact, BARRIERS are OF two KINDS.
There is the free-handed operator OF the
rowdy west. who from the multiplicity OF
abattoirs in that section has been so ac-
customed 10 the sight Of blood that he
considers an operation rather tame ana
colorless without n show OF 1t: VINO
uses cleo substitutes for bears
grease and who daubs the e1sanSulned
visage of his patient with corn,
whisky mixture from bottle inscribed
| "Bay Rum" instead of using the more
extravaganza foreign article, on which
tariff duty would have to be paid, and the
use of which would compel him TO charge
10 cents for shave.
Again, there is the artistic barber OF the
cultured east, whose toilet goods are OF
the purest: whose voice. If conversation be
INDUCED i'll at all, is dulcet and most
finely modulated; whose keen blade rarely
nips a feature of the face, ana whose
prices, high as they might seem In Kansas,
afford him little more than competence,
with an occasional chance for recreation.
Mr. ingalls,, eschewing the abattoir sur
roundings of his thriving state, should
confue his patronage to this latter class
of BARRIERS He might then have small
occasion to shake his CORY locks at one OF
the most ancient and honorable calliDgs OF
which the history OF mankind makes NEIL
tiOn.
