An Oregon Bear Story.

An Oregon hunter was engaged in
setting traps with only a knife in his
possession when his dogs discovered the
winter quarters of a bear, in big hol-
low tree. The bear was at home, and
was pretty much alive, as subsequent
events proved. AS bear pelts are quite
valuable, the hunter was anxious to Sc
cure this one, but was afraid that if he
went to camp, a mile and half distant.
Bruin would escape, so he dashed his
pocketxnife to the end of a stick and at
tempted to cut the animals throat. He
only succeeded in infiicting some painful
flesh wounds, which so enraged the brute
that it suddenly came out of it's hole. and
was almost upon him when one of his
dogs made a sudden onslaught on the
animals rear, which diverted it's atten
ton long enough to enable the hunter to
dodge behind a tree. and the dogs soon
made it so tropical for the bear that it
was glad to take refuge in a tree, where
they kept it until the gun was procured
from camp, when the animal was quick
ly DISPATCHED.

though in the case of less modest man
it surely would be. Mr.. Ford has re-
turned from his cruise in the Mediter
ranean brighter and better than ever Ill
his herculean way, says a New York
letter. He was decorated by the
Khedive with the Order of the Crescent
and Ibu, literary prize in Egypt. Mr.
Ford attributes his success as humorist
to the novel theory which he PROFOUND
ed in London a year ago, and which the
Prince of Wales laughed at so heartily.
This theory is based, upon the curious
fact, first noticed by Mr.. Ford, that
man has long believed himself alone in
being endowed with a sense of humor.
But latterly a sense of humor has been
detected in animals, and Mr.. Ford ar
CUES that as man is made in the image
of his maker, it follows that the Deity
must have sense of humor too. This
divine humor is, of course, Infinitely
more sublime than anything we poor
mortals have any conception of. Mr..
Ford explains the phenomenon of the
universe by contending that it is piece
of humor on the part of the Creator,
who made the earth and the moon and
the stars as sort of heavenly joke.
Hence the prevalence of the comic ele-
ment throughout the cosmos.

Useful Suggestions to Those Who Value
What is Invaluable.
Avoid tight-ftting hats and collars,
also close-ftting caps, unless these be
of some porous material. The two for
mer prevent due supply of blood to the
parts, hence the hair papillae are put,
as it were, on short commons all the time
the hats and collars are worn. The caps
engender caloric, which sets up irritation,
and ultimately that most stubborn form
of dandruff, namely, pityriasis ii. e.,
branny scales) Note that all the head
gear which is not porous should be venti-
lated at top and sides to allow free cur
rent Of air.
Never sit or stand with the top of
the headgear near a gas light and lamp
light The heat thrown out is apt to
paralyze the scalp tissues and dries up
the hair itself.
Don't wash the head oftener than once
a fortnight, when first rub in the yolk of
an egg, and thoroughly rinse out with
warm water, into which has been thrown
a pinch OF borax. Dry carefully and
apply a little pure olive oil.
Beware Of the common practice of
dipping the comb in water when arrang-
ing the hair. 1t promotes decomposi-
ton and rancidity of the natural oil,
and so leads to "rotting."
If the hair be naturally dry, apply a
little olive oil occasionally. If naturally
oily, occasionally wash away the excess
Of sebaceous secretion by means of a
lather of tepid water and soap bark
(quitlaya saponaria).
Salt water is most injurious to the
hair for which reason when sea bathing
wear an oil cap.
Always treat the scalp as if you loved
it. Take to heart DR.. Godfrey's dictum
that every touch affecting so delicate a
texture as the scalp should be soft and
soothing. every application bland and
mild" Don't use -bristled or wire
brushes. and in all cases brush gently.
Also, always brush out the hair before
attempting to comb it, and use the comb
as little rs possible.
Have the ends of the hair clipped once
month, if only to prevent them from
splitting. But don't close-crop.-Phila-
