tionSip which their boards grow by
shaving. That is absurd. II you will
take q microscope and examine the
face Of a bnby a week old you will see
that the cheeks and chin are covered
with very fine, soft hairs, invisible to
the naked eye. The direction inswhich
they turn will be changed. II
the child is n male those hairs will
constitute the beard when it grows to.
be a a If it is of the other sex
they will make the down which the
poets praise. Frequently.men come to
nue. and express desire to have the
shape Of their boards altered by change
ing tho direction in which the hairs
grow. To all these say only:
1.Messienrs, what you ask cannot
be. All the curling irons and razors
In the world are powerless against the
decree of nature. Moreover, it would
be foolish for you to make such .
change even though it were possible.
Nature is a good artist, and II her
ideas are followed the result is always
good. A little training here or there
may be beneficial, but the general
plan of nature should be followed and
not opposed. Be thankful messieurs,
that You have boards, and do not try
to ruin them.' So, too, I tell those
with straight boards who wish to
make them curly aud those with cur
~ boards who wish to have them
straight. 1t is possible to curl straight
hair and also to straighten curly hair.

This state Of affairs is not due to any
desire on the part Of the latter to ''covet
their neighbours goods, Is due to the
exigencies of politics and population.
Despite Darwines theory that only the

is increasing SO rapidly that it must find
sonc new outlet for it's energies and soma
new spot on which to settle and to live.
The United States has thriven and grown
under this influx and is already beginning
to feel FESTIVE at the prospects of an ex-
cessive population. Canada with its In
temperate climate and barren wastes does
not offer sufficient inducements to the
emigrant, while Central and South Amer
lea, although blessed with marvellous
soil and vegetation and untold mineral
wealth, are yet cursed with numberless
political advcnturers and the almost
semi-weekly revolutions they fomcnt.
Asia is out OF the question, being the
most thlckly populated portion OF the
globe, and Australia has ceased to be
attractive from thcimmigrational point OF
view. There remains but Africa and the
FESTIVE eyes of the disconnected and over.
burdened European nations are turned
upon the Ethiopia of old, while some OF
the stronger powers have already bought,
begged and "acquircd" territory. Nature
outdid herself when she made Africa, and

for spoils has begun.

Wigs for Young Men.

"There are more bald-headed young
men in leading Washington social cir
cles," said the supplier of hirsute de-
ticiencies to the Boston Herald scribe,
"than people would think. But that
is Because very little of it is revealed
to the curious glance. You see, most
of the young men grow bald immedi-
ately above the forehead, which leaves
a triangular space, or on the center of
the head. The first place is very easily
concealed by a patch which looks as
natural MS the real thing. These
patches are readily adjusted and may
be brushed in any style. They are
rather expensive, though; that is, If a
man desires something which will
completely battle the attempts of the
suspicious at detection, aud cost all
the way from 800 to $3.50, according to
size and finish.
II could name twenty young men
who sport these patches and whose
hair is universally admired by the fair
sex but, of course. | wouldn't. Con-
corning the particular spot on the top
of the head in which the hair is espe-
cially heeting, any number of men
whose ages range between 25 and 40
are so decorated. They do not come
so high as the iirst-named prices, but
arc just as easily adjusted and present
the same impenetrable finish. There
are not many of the complete wigs
sold like there were fifteen or twenty
years ago. In fact, it is hard TO get a
wig which does not give itself away
and this is worse than thin hair and
badness. What is the color mostly in
vogue concerning wigs' Why. I guess
dark brown is the most popular. Most
men have that color of hair. Black
haired and extremely light-haired men
seldom become bald at an early age;
when they do it is generally on the
center OF the head.

STORY OF THE JONAH MINE.
Sailed and Put on the Market for "Un.
loading" It Paid Big Returns.

Charles +. Dantord, of Boise City,
Idaho, is at the Sherman house, says
the Chicago Nems.
Il used to be a miner away down in
the southwest corner of Idaho," said
Mr.. Danford.
"We had a big mining camp down
there between Topaz and Squaw creek.
And it was as tough a camp as you'd
wish to meet in a days walk. There
were two great partners in the camp,
known simply rs Bill and Joe. You
never saw two such close friends-tlley
ate, drank, slept, shot and worked to-
gether. Joe and Bill had a claim about
a mile from camp. OF all the fellows
in the camp they had the worst luck.
Their mine scarcely paid their whisky
bill, to say nothing of their losses at
poker. The poor boys were notorious
for their bad luck. Finally they con-
cluded our camp was a Donah' for
them and that they would sell out and
leave. Of course, they couldn't sell
such q dead mine in our region, SO
they decided that Bill should travel to
parts where it had never been heard
of and endcavor to unload the mine,
while Joe should stay and continue
work. Before Bill departed they be-
tween them fixed up a lot of the most
monstrous and seductive lies eve
dreamed of.
"Bill sailed forth, armed to the
teeth, rs it were, to snare the unwary,
and his glowing description of their
mine very nearly landed a purchaser a

about a week after Bill had left, he
struck it rich. He rushed to the tele-

message to Bill:

Our lies are all true. joe"

sequences when applied to military SER

names, and then drill or not, pretty much

NJ. de Contouly is n Frenchman and
perhaps his dislike of Germans leads him
to speculate in imaginary possibilities.
Personally, l am inclined to think that
the outlines l have traced on the accom-
panying. map are likely to become the
boundaries of the European-African states
of the future. Africa has a brilliant
future before it, as tho soil, from an
agricultural, as we'll as from a minero-
logical point of view, is rich beyond tho

Sure Radiance for Rats.

The best way to get rid of rats and
mice is not te poison them, but to
make them thoroughly tired of the 10
cnlity and so induce them TO leave.
They are generally too smart to eat
poison. even when it is prepared for
their benefit in the most seductive
fashion, but they are not so particular
about tartar emctic. When Il little of
this is mixed with my fayorite food
they will eat as greedily as though the
physic were not there, but in two or
three hours there will be the most dis
couraged lot of rats about the place
that anybody aver saw. The tartar
will not kill them; it only makes them
deadly sick. Sometimes they will
crawl out and walk about like a SEN
sick man. so i'll that they do not seem
toGare what becomes of them. Butt

theme for conjecture and forecast. While
d%isclaiming any ability as n prophet,
can speak knowingly of Africa, having
spent three years travelling through the
land OF gold, diamonds and negroes. TO
properly understand the subject it will
not be amiss to consider the topograph-
ical peculiarities of the country for Il mo-
ment. Africa is the result of gigantic
volcanic eruption, an assertion that is
fully borne out by the formation of the
soil. That the Sahara desert was once u
portion of the ocean, every school child
knows. Subterranean forces elevated the
bottom of this sen and pushed the waters
back beyond what is now The western
coast line. The entire southern end of
the continent is Of volcanic origin, the

rivers and mountains, play grea: parts in
the division of n continent and to q GER
tain extent this applies to Africa. Before
specializing on the Africa of tomorrow it
will be necessary to speak of the Africa
of today, and it can be said in all truth
fitness that there is no portion OF our
globe that is more interesting from any
and all points of view.
The Africa of the present day is con-
trolled by five of the European nations:
Great Britain, France, Germany, Portu-
gal and Belgium. The four ~3arbary

scattered possessions ranging from Portu-
guese East Africa to Angola. Germany,
which will eventually be an important
factor in the territorial game OF chess,
has possessions on the east coast, around
Zanzibar and on the west coast in Da-

the latter count, yis claimed by the Brit

a lions oar. His wife, the mother of
those twenty eight children, was less

about 100 pounds. Standing side by
side, her head scarcely reached his
vest pocket. They were both indus
trious, and when their children got
old enough to talk they were put to
work. There was no loating or indo-
lence tolerated on tho Knight planta-
ton. Everyone had to rise with the
dawn of day. There were eighteen
boys and ten girls. The males inner

the females their mothers diminutive

terror. He would steal from his neigh

prison at Butler the rats attacked him
one night and he died from the effects
of their bites. Later on Lon became

eighteen boys is either in the peniten-
tiary or is wanted there. Six years
ago Mrs. Knight died. Four months
later old man Knight married a widow

the church all at the same time, shortly
after their mothers second marriage.

Knight last summer and killed her.
