Had to Play the String Out.

A man seated himself in chair in an up town barber shop and ordered one plain shave without tonic. Look here, v he said, by way of amendment, "rve got an awfully tender face and want you to be very careful with it.
 The barber promised solemnly to re- turn it to him as whole as he found 1t, and then he proceeded to strap his razor finely. He lathered his particular GUS toner carefully, took his ear in his hand and with one swipe removed beard father and cuticle from hair to chin. The patient howled with pain, and sit ting bolt upright in the chair he eyed the barber responsibility,
 What in thunder are you trying to doY' he demanded angrily.
 "You see, my razor is too sharp, apologized the Chesterfieldian barber, 1t is so sharp that when it takes hold it will not let go, and am obliged to play the string out."-Exchange.

This is somewhat of a Aggression from the topic under discussion, but perhaps the reader will excuse its insertion. One thought naturally suggested the other.
 AS a class engineers are usually good natured, kind hearted, though bit rough; deep thinkers, due to their fixed habits of attention and long hours of enforced silence, and of good morals. An engineer who drinks cannot hope to hold his position long, for no master me chanic will tolerate confirmed tippling in subordinate whose duties are so re- sponsible as those of an engineer. He must be abstinent, prompt at his post of duty, and ever vigilant if he hopes to AhdAhshih hio pOoi1AOAl. HIS hahho Atay be black and his face grimy, but that his heart is all right was evidenced not long ago in railroad terminus on the Pacific coast when the engine, puffing and laboring from its dizzy ride over mountain passes and along dangerous precipices, was approached by a golden haired miss of six, who patted one of the huge driving wheels caressingly and lisping, You dear, big black thing, how l love you for bring ing my sweet mamma and papa home to 'Qe from across those horrid mountains, and you too," she exclaimed, lifting her pretty face to the black bearded engin- ger, who had been watching her from his cab Ire tear that sprang instantly to his eye was not an evidence of weak ness, but of warm, impassionate heart, and the fat! 1T of the little girl that oc- casioned this touch of human nature furtively re :hed for his handkerchief just as the engineer drew his grimy sleeve across bis sooty face.-Caicago Herald. r.

Death Of Miss Susie E. Sawyer.

This well known and lamented young
lady, died at her mothers home, in this
city, on the evening of October 9TH, 1892.
1t is another illustration of the old fact
the bright's st flowers fade earliest. She
was born October IL, 1869, and lived all
her life in this city. Disease, battling
both the skill and diagnosis OF physicians,
fastened its tentacles upon her delicate
frame, and after hopeless struggle Of
almost two years, she yielded to its rava-
ges, and took her flight beyond the stars.
In her last hours when asked what she
wanted, she said, Crest" Yes, she want
ed Crest" Pain had held her in his
pitiless grasp for months and even years,
and she longed for the rest, that "rest
that remaineth for the-people of God"
The funeral services were conducted
by Rev. l. B. Undertake, of New AL
bany, of the Baptist church, her former
pastor, under whose ministrations she
became member OF that church.
The News, in its daily work, records
