was retold Of an order given to Russian
regiments to take some hills then in the
possession Of the enemy. The regiments
started with rush, and thrice the order
for retreat was given. But by some mis-
understanding one regiment failed to re-

Curious Freaks of Razers,

The finest grades OF razors are so deli
cate that even the famous Damascus
sword blades cannot equal them in tex
ture. 1t is not generally known that the
grain of Swedish razor is so sensitive
that its general direction is changed after
a short service. When you buy a fine
razor the grain runs from the upper end
of the outer point in diagonal direc.
tion toward the handle. Constant strap,
ping will twist the steel until the grain
appears to be straight up and down.
Subsequent use will drag the grain out
ward to the edge, so that after steady
use for several months the fibre of the
steel occupies position exactly the re.
verse of that which it did on the dav Of
purchase. The process also affects the
temper of the blade, and when the grain
sets from the lower outer point toward
the back, you have razor which cannot
be kept in condition, even by the most
conscientious barber. But here's an
other curious freak that will take place
in the same tool: Leave the razor alone
for month or two, and when you take
it up you will find that the grain has as
sumed its first position. The operation
can be repeated until the steel is worn
through to the back. k.-Aaaufacturers
