SHE HAD RED HAIR.



Misresd Telegram.
They were TALKING about the red headed
girl and white horse fad at the Kimball
House the other night, when somebody
told good one on Sam Hardwick. whom
everybody knows as general passenger
agent of the Georgia Pacific.
Sam was with party of Birmingham
friends not long ago-gay young society
people they were, and all well known to
everybody in the Magic City when
somebody started the white horse story.
One young lady in the party had ideal
Titan hair, and the joke was, Of course,
at her expense. There were white
horses everywhere. Every little station
brought another white horse to add to
the fair ones discomfort, and CORE
spondingly to the happiness of the man
who persisted in pointing them out. 1t
was a white horse day. Glimpses of
them met the gaze of the party every
where, until the victim of all began to
think that every horse and every mule
in Alabama was of that, to her, detestible
color.
A bright idea struck Sam-hit him
hard, in fact.
Now, I'll bet $780," he said to the
white horse man of the party, that
there won't be white horse at the depot
in Admission when we get there.
The bet was promptly taken, and the
coming to Admission was eagerly looked
forward TO.
In few minutes Hardwick looked at
his watch, and, murmuring something
about wanting TO see the engineer"
went forward
A minute later the train stopped at
little station. So intent was the party
upon looking at some white mules in the
distance that they didn't notice the
brakeman, who hurried into the tele-
graph Office and hurried out again. Had
they seen the message he bore they
would have read:
"To Blank, Agent, Admission: Ten dol
lars to you if you have no white horses
or mules at depot when train arrives.
But they didn't see it.
Sam went back to the party chuckling
to himself and admiring his own clever
ness. It was but few minutes when
the conductor called "Anniston /" The
young ladies looked out and laughed.
Sans face wore benign smile as he
pushed one of the men aside, and press
ing his face to the pane, he saw
White horses everywhere ! In all that
concourse Of drays and hacks every mule
and every horse was white. A tap ON
the shoulder aroused him.
Mr.. Hardwick, I'm sorry y"-it was the
agent who spoke-"Pm sorry, but
could only get 19-"
Sam jerked the telegram from his
hand, but for minute was speechless.
Then without word he handed a roll
of bills to the man with whom he had
bet.
The telegraph operator had made the
"no" read "20. Atlanta Constitution.

The cause Of persons whose nerves are
excited by protracted and excessive use
of stimulants seeing the shapes of ami.
mails passing before them is not due
wholly to the imagination, says a writer
in the New York Times. In fact the
fancy only operates to induce belief
that what is seen is alive and hideous.
The eyebal is covered by network Of
veins, ordinarily 50 small that they do
not intrude themselves visibly in the
path Of the light that enters the sight,
but In the course of some diseases these
veins are frequently congested and
swollen to such size as to become visible,
and when this happens the effect gener.
ally is to appear as if there were an OBJ
ject OF considerable size at distance
from the eye.
OF course this vein is generally long,
thin, and sinuous like serpent, and the
figure seen is frequently startlingly like
a snake That they seem to live is due
10 the fact that they are often not in per-
feet line with the direct front of sight.
They are either to the side, up or down
from the focus; therefore, when dis
covered, the victim naturally turns his
eyes toward the effect, and the effect, of
course, moves away. The eye follows,
and thus continuous and realistic mo-
ton is got. Now, il the eye be returned
to the front again quickly it will see
another snake, which If watched will
glide away in the same manner. The
writer Of this is afflicted by. malarial dis
ease, and after his eyes are thus congested
many strange shapes and clouds pass
within his vision, which, if he were in a
state Of nervous collapse, might easily be
all that are seen by those suffering from
delirium tremens.
