Hot Water.

The efficacy of hot water in shaw,
ing, says the Sun, is more fully ap-
preciated by the people of that re-
markably-advanced country, Japan,
than in the younger civilizations of
the West. Japanese BARRIERS shave
nearly all of the exposed surfaces of
a mans head. They shave the ears
the outside and inside of the nose.
the eyebrows and a portion of the
scalp. The victim sits on a very low
stool, while the barber perches on a
higher stool and takes his customers
head between his knees. Then he
seizes a very small razor, dipsit in
to hot water, and begins the work.
1t is no light performance to shave
n Japanese gentleman. No lather is
used, but q keen edge is kept con-
stantly on the razor by dipping it
into hot water once or twice during
the operation. Men who shave them
selves will find that hot water will
put a better edge on their razors
than any strop ever invented.

Chained For Fifty Years.

Jay Hill died few days ago at his
home, five miles above Trinity college,
this state, aged 20 years. He was
most remarkable character, says a
Charlotte, N. G., special to the Globe
Democrat. He was born an idiot,
but since infancy has possessed phy-
sical strength to a rare degree. and
was we'll formed in every particular,
with the exception OF his head, which
wasso extremely ill-shaped as to give
him more the appearance of a beast
than of man. When but child he
was often SO violent that it was nee
essary to chain him to the floor Not
withstanding this unnatural exist
ence, he grew and strengthened day by
day until his chain was not sufficient
to hold him, and two or three times
he broke loose and fed to the woods
During his brief liberty he was as
violent as tiger, and it was difficult
to recapture and return him to his
place eofconfinement. He was fasten-
ed with stronger bonds ard, with the
exception of few days, he remained
chained to the floor in the same room
for about fifty years. He had an in
satIate desire for tearing to pieces
anything that he could get, and at
times it was impossible to keep him
clothed. Flax was spun into coarse,
strong threads and woven into cloth.
which was doubled and quilted and
made intogarmentsf for him, but with
his teeth and talon-like fingers he
tore themi into threads. He has been
known to tear to pieces a solid stick
ofhickory wood with nothing but his
teeth and fingers. He ate as raven
ousl y as n lion, and could drink.
without the slightest pain, boiling
coffee.
On several occasions members OF
the family narrowly escaped beinc,
Killed by him. One evening q siste"
started to go out of doors. She
passed too near him and he sprang
at her with great force, knocked her
through the door into the yard, so
badly injuring her that it was not
thOughtpOssible for her to live. His
father provided for him before his
death, leaving property enough to
maintain a wretched life through all
these years. 1t was stipulated in the
will that he should not be taken to
an asylum, and that he should be
kept on the old homestead.

A Ginger Bread Barometer.

1t is nothing more or less than the
figure of a general made of ginger
bread which Clavette buvs every year
atthe Place du Trone. When he gets
Aeme he hangs1is purchase on a nail.
You know the effect of the atmos.
phere on ginger bread. The slightest
moisture renders it soft; in dry
weather, on the contrary, it grows
hard and tough. Every morning on
going out Clavette asks his servant:
"What does the general say?"
The man forthwith applies his
thumb to the figure and replies:
"The general feels fiappy about the
chest; you'd better take your umbrel-
la"
On the other hand, when the symp-
toms are "hard and unyielding" our
worthy colleague sallies forth in his
new hat.-Almanach de I Alelier.

Anothr Originai:~ 2Ckage Decision.
Judge John c. Sherwin, at Mason City,
Iowa, made sweeping decision in the orig
inal package injunction cases which have
been pending in his court, which is by far the
severest blow at prohibition tha state has
yet received. In his decision the Judge finds
that the beer in question was owned by It'll
zens of Minnesota, was shipped to taeir
agents in Mason City in quart bottles, placed
in cases, said bottles taken from cases and
shelved and sold by the bottle as called for;
that sales were made to minors and the per-
sons in the habit of becoming intoxicted, and
that the beer was Intoxicating and was drank
onthe premises. From the foregoing facts he
made the following conclusions of law: That
the DEFENDANTS as agents of importers could
occupy the building for the purpose of selling
the beer in original packages except minors
and habitual drunkards and that such use
would not constitute nuisance. though the
beer was drank on the premises by the pur-
chaser, and that the sales, although shipped
by the cases, were sales in original packages.
He granted temporary injunction restrain
ing defendants from selling to minors and
those in the habit of becoming intoxicated.
Some of the leading attorneys of this section
nre now advising the city council to impose q
license on original packages, they claiming
the same can be done and collected by Law.
