How Two Ladies Tried to Come In
Contact With Hunchback.

How Two Ladies Tried to Come In
Contact With Hunchback
DO you see those two ladies yon-
der?" remarked a genial, hunchbacked
gentlemansin an elevated railroad car
recently. They have been trying
for the last ten minutes to get along
side Of me and touch my back. Some
women seem possessed with the idea
that to come in personal contact with
one deformed as I am means future
good luck for them. Igot on at One.
Hundred and Forty-ffth Street and
they came in at the station next be-
low that. The elder lady, probably
the younger ones mother, saw
vacant seat beside me and made for
it, although there were a dozen others
that she might have seated herself in.
The next thing | knew she was at
tempting to put her hand on the win
dow sill behind me, and got up and
moved to the other end OF the car.
This was the opportunity for
both OF them. The old lady
becloned. to the other to follow her.
and III be blessed II they didn't
change places as the train slowed up
at One Hundred and Twenty fifth
Street and take up their position
on either side of me. I saw the salts
fed look OF the younger one this
time, and she also made a pretext OF
arranging her hat, and then pulling
down the blind, but she evidently
didn't have quite enough assurance
to boldly place her hand on my pro-
truding back, whereupon the old lady
made a feint Of passing something be-
hind ME, and I again moved to the
other side OF the car. Had the car
been full would have been compelled
to endure the carressing which their
superstitious notions impelled them
to bestow on my back Funny crea-
lures, these woman! I was wishing
all the time that cross-eyed man
might come in while they were at
work on me. Between the two the
ladies would have had lively time,
with the chances largely in favor OF
his destroying all the prospective
prosperity they might ha.-" gotten
out OF me- New York Re, II l..

A PRETTY GIRLS PLAN. Z

To Be Rid of the Too Numerous and
Too Ardent Swain.
One Lewiston girl believes that
prayer meetings are not the place for
flirtations and pairing off. She has
known what it is to expect one or two
men waiting at the church door avery
Sunday night with the question
whether or no he may go home with
her. She has determined to rid her
self OF both, and probably has. She
went to the cake walk in Lyceum Hall
recently and during the evening both
asked permission to csc ort her home.
She said yes to both: They both
waited for her on the landing, and
when she came downstairs she smiled
and took one Of each young mans
arms.
At first they hesitated a little, but
then went down the last fight of
stairs at a jerky gait. At the foot OF
the stairs they both let go her arm and
walked up Lisbon strest, looking ugly
at each other. She entert aimed them
both with lively stories of the even
ing's entertainment Each thought
that the other would drop off at the
head ofthe street and he would 90 home
with the pretty girl; but no, they both
went on up Main street, wishing in.
their inmost hearts that they were
out Of it. What a fool the other fell
low was! Why didn't he leave?
In the mean time they went past
corner after corner where each thought
surely the other would say good night,
TOR had not the girl said he might go
home with her. So on they went
until the gate was reached, and with
a pretty thought about the effect OF
the moon on dried leaves in the gut
ter she asked them in They both said
it was late and looked nervous.

The Right ktnd--To Be Used With
Care--Seyeral Pairs Necessary.
One needs many pairs ofscissors, and
true economy consists in having a
pair for each sort of work. The cut
ting OF paper is very trying to sharp
ened steel, and a pair might be kept
for that purpose. Long slender shears
are handy for general use; buttonhole
scissors for trimming lamps in the
kitchen is necessary where there is no
gas: grape scissors. for the table are
not altogether new; scissors to cut
flowers in the country are a conven-
fence.
Few people carry pocket scissors of
the folding sort. Those that do new
er part with them. Convenient for
manicure use, to cut a clipping from a
paper at a moments notice, a string,
ETC., they answer almost any purpose
OF the pocket knife and are much
more. convenient to handle. Give a.
person accustomed to their use q knife
and the pocket scissors and he will
part with the former first. No cutting
blade should be put near the fire, as
it will then lose it's temper, which is
donated by it's turning blue Such q
knife or blade will never keep it's edge.

But 1t Gave a Fashionable Lady
Reason to Blush.
A very popular but blind Count
lives in Champs Elysees. Being witty
and musical his society is much sought
after. He left Paris three months ago,
and on his return called upon a fash
ionable marchioness, who was prepar-
ing to 60 to a fancy ball. She begged
to be excused, but as he had an i'm
portant message to deliver he was
shown in, and being, OF course blind,
he was asked to take a seat in her
boudoir. Gossip ensued, and during
all the time the Marchioness, assisted
by her maid, executed the mysteries
Of her toilet.
Being ready to descend to her car,
riage the Count stated that he had
been absent in London and had un-
dergone successful operation for cat
aract and could now see as we'll as the
Marchioness. The latter shrieked and
jumped into her carriage without even

Why the Hair Falls Out.

Dyspepsia is one OF the most COM
mon causes OF badness. Nature is a
great economizer and when the nutri-
ent elements furnished by the blood
are insufficient to properly support
the whole body she cuts off the supply
to parts the least vital, like the hair
and nails, that the heart, lungs and
other vital organs may be the better
nourished. In cases Of severe fevers
this economy is particularly notice
able.
A single hair is a sort OF history of
the physical condition of an individu-
al during the time it has been growing,
if one could read closely enough. Take
a hair from the beard or from the
head and scrutinize it and you will see
that it shows some attenuated places
indicating that at some period of it's
growth the blood supply was deficient
from overwork, anxiety or underfeed-
ing
The hair falls out when the strength
OF it's roots is insufficient to sustain
It's weight any longer, and anew hair
will take it's place unless the root is
diseased. For this reason each per-
son has q certain definite length Of
hair. When the hair begins to split
OF fall out massage OF the scalp is ex-
cellent.
Place the tips Of the fingers firrAly
upon the scalp, and then vlbrate or
move tho scalp while holding the pres
sure steadily. This will stimulate the
blood vessels underneath and bring
about better nourishment OF the hair.
A brush Of enevenly tufted bristles is
also excellent to use upon the scalp,
not the hair. National Barber.
