THIS Can 30 Done by Electricity, Though
the Work L. Expensive
The hair of man is gradually disaP
rea@Ing before the march OF civilian
ton Nature, who is an economical
dame, has gradually removed the hair
from the top of the head where it is no
longer useful Still, kindly inten-
toned, a decorative fringe is left for
ornament Man himself would have
gladly compounded with nature, and
bartered some of the growth of his face
for a few more handfuls of hair on his
head Nature, however, knew the
value of shaving as discipline and re.
fused to interfere. Now, it appears,
man sees the way to esta ablish per-
manently clean face for himself Nc
more early rising for a matutinal shave
nor dallying in barber shops awaiting
turn. The method is simple but ex-
pensive. It is done with the electric
needle-at cost of about three dollars
a hair, a decline from the first rates
The operation takes time. Owing to
the strain on the operators eyes, the
removal can be done only in patches
unless relay of physicians be pro-
vided. The operation is painless, as
the ground has been prepared By CO.
caine. With the later improvements in
electric lights and magnifying mirrors
the time may come that a man will
eradicate the BRAN bles of his face as
easily as farmer mows down a hedge
row. A Roman youth used to receive
his toga virills the day Of his first
shave. The occasion was fete. Cor.
nelia, Lesbia, Flavia and the rest had
been hem-stitchipg and feather-stitch-
ing his toga in secret moments for
weeks before. In the new day the oc-
casion will doubtless be the the same.
The girls, having saved their pocket
money, will have ready an electric
needle, ivory mounted, or in repousss
silver, with monogram, when the
youths first growth is sufficiently
sighted for removal. Thus far it is
easy to predict an aristocracy of smooth
faces. Even at wholesale rates the ef-
facement of the beard is bound for
long time to be beyond the reach of the
multitude. This of itself is certain to
make smooth faces fashionab ble.-N. Y.

production of popular sentimental

At q Dutch Window.

You impatiently scale six or seven
square inches of ice from the window
of the room, which looks upon the
street, and seek diversion in the outer
scenes The houses of trim red and
yellow brick, with their staircase ga.
bles, cloalled precisely In nice whits
snow. upon which the pallid gold OF
the January sunlight shines mildly,
are pretty enough to behold. Quite
likely, too as you peer forth, you meet
the eyes of a chubby, sympathetic
Dutch maiden or full-blown citizeness
in her room opposite.
The lady, you perceive, has retreat
rs snug and congenial as can be. The
tall forms of sub-tropical plants flank
her at the window-unfailing indica
tions that the temperature of her room
is very agreeable. She has also subtle
arrangement of mirrors outside the
window, SO that sitting by the double
panes she can see a great deal of what
happens in the street both ways.
No wonder the dear soul is able tc
meet your gaze with an expression OF
serene self-satisfaction that is never
unbecomingi and which in your situa
tion enhances to you such beauty as
she may possess.-All the Year Round.

for the use of the early Solons of the

over and covered in; but there it is and

Erin,s Loss or Cain.

Much of the old joyousness of the
Irish has vanished. The old stories and
legends are rarely told now; politics
and trade absorb all the conversation.
Tho narrative of bygone glories and
Borows, of st. Patrick and Brian, of
the great O'Neil and of the Geraldines,
and 1898 and the famine, have given
place to United Ireland, The Nation and
the vulgarities of Mick McQuadc.
The crossroads are deserted where
formerly in the long summer evenings
the boys and girls gathered TO dance to
the fiddler's never firing music. You
may still see the girls milking the COWS
in the crofts, morning and night, but
you hear no more the plaintive ballad
and "come-all-ye" to make the dhrimin
dhu let her milk down easily. To the
nonpolitician it seems as if this were
duo to the all pervading political faint.
1t appears to him the plan of campaign
has banished the "good people, p" the
rise and fall of the butter market put
the milking song out of tune, and dis
content made the heart too heavy for
the heels to be light.
To the less sentimental observer the
signs are of brighter omen.
IL the people have less of the old care
less gayety, they are grown steadier. If
they are discontented, it is not mere
grumbling shiftlessness; they want
something higher than they have, and
that, with the power of saving money,
is what brings men and nations to the
top of the tree. Westminster Review.
