Eo long has the custom Of crimp-

Yes, very seriously. You see, human

this channel flows a current of oil Now,
If this is damned up it has the same ef-

Therefore, in ninety nine cases out of
one hundred where the mustaehe is
crimped it finally begins to fall out, much
to the grief OF its owner. Where there
is unusual vigor this result does not OBJ
tain, which accounts for the exceptions
named.
DO all your customers have their
mustaches curled?"
"Oh, no; its the middle aged and
young fellows who carry the style.
When man begins to wrinkle up and
his knee joints begin to rattle he cares
very little for those finer points in his
personal appearance.
do the dandy police officers like to
have a curl put into their whiskers?"
"Do they? Well, should think SO.

If it can not be said of any human
being that he does not think at all, it can
be said of very few that they think
deeply, truly. and earnestly. While
thought is privilege SO dear that none
would be willing to forego it, it is strange
that so many of US are content to par
take so sparingly of it. Most of us skim
over its waves without ever attempting
to sound its depths. We think about
mnny things, but seldom through any
thing. Yet the evils of this habit of
superficial thinking are serious, though
seldom brought into notice. One of
these is the arrogance and self sufficiency
which it frequently engenders. The old
proverb: A little learning is dangerous
thing, may be quite as pertinentiy APP
piled to thinking.
