SHAVED At HOME.
A Suggestion That Ladies' Should shave
Their Husbands.

From the Louisville Courier-Journai
"Do you ever notice how clean shaw
en- that man is?" asked q young wO-
man pointing to a merchant well known
ON Main street the other day. When
she WIS answered in the affirmative the
young woman continued:
well, that shows what woman
can do. His wife shaves him. l sur
prise you? I would surprise you more
IL told you the names Of dozen more
well-known merchants who indulge
their whims and their wives desires in
this direction. 1t almost amounted to a
fad for time. and was at its height
last summer. A Louisville woman who
was visiting east saw some women
BARRIERS at work in New York, and as
she noted the ease and grace with which
the professionals removed the superflu-
Gus hirsute growth she concluded she
would try 1t when she returned home.
Her husband objected at first, but when
he was finally induced to subject him
self to the ordeal he congratulated him
self on the result. After that he would
not allow a regular barber to touch his
face. The fad spread, and I couldn't
tell you how many more followed suit"

WEST SIDE EVENTS.
I, Is Said That on Effort VIII 10 Made to
Establish o Branch Of American
Volunteers.

There will be exciting times in local
Salvation army circles In few weeks.
Major Watkins. of the American Vol
;nteers, Is coming here ana with ner
will come Miss Hannah Masland and
Miss Nellie Green, late leaders OF the
Scranton Salvation army corps. 1t Is
:.oised about that the two young women
will manage a local Volunteer corps,
which will be organized when Major
Watkins arrives. The nucleus for the
new corps is to be drawn from the
Scranton Salvation army. 1t is untrue
that the Tabernacle Congregational
church has been offered to Major Wat
kins. The meeting place has not been
decided upon. There are at present
\tout seventy-five members in the Sal
.atiOn army corps. OF these perhaps
1. half dozen have signitied their will
ing.ess to join the rival organization,
a prominent Scranton lawyer Is act
ing In this city as the representative
IF BallingtOn Booth. He 1t was, ac-
cording to ruinor, who weaned the
Misses Masland and Green from the
Salvation army and caused them TO
join the new movement.
In New Jersey. New York city ana
In Chicago, Ballington Booths infiu,
ence Is most felt. According to local.
Salvation army leaders the new move
ment Is successful only because OF the
attractive personality of the younger
Rooth and his wife. One of the officers
recently said: The Volunteer move
ment will hurt us in this city. 1t Will
stimulate the work in which we are at
present engaged in, but both orsaniza-
tions will suffer from financial wants.
We have hard work now to keep the
Price street barracks, and with the
two children at the table the food Will
hardly go around. This is where 1t Will
do ILL.,"

tional establishments We believe that such
will be the ease just SO far the reform elc-
nent i'm the board Is enabled To carry ont lis
PURPOSES For the present there seems. how
ever 10 exist the old disposition 10 keep the
schools rs nearly upon the plane which they
have 80 long occupied as is possible under the
operation Of the new law. 1t is incODccivablc
that men Of respectable character could de-
iberately resolve to keep the schools from be-
coming what they ought to he. and we are quite
willing 10 suppose that those members Of the
Board Of Education whose conduct seems to
suggest such n disposition do not fully compre-
bend the responsibilities with which they are
officially entrusted: and yet il is not altogether
easy TO credit them with good intentions just
now. when it appears probable that the Board
will soon appoint To the extremely responsible
office of Supervisor of Kindergarten instruction
n candidate who Is not known 10 possess any
special qualification for that place. and who is
known 10 have received In the course Of her
busy life no suitable training for It's work.
There is no personal prejudice against Mrs.
Williams among those who are earnestly Oppos-
ng her selection as Kindergarten Supervisor.
There was no prejudice against Superintendent
Jasper at the time when there was moi nm
reasonable hope that Or. Gilman might be So
cured. There is no question Of individuals III
matters affecting public education in the view
of the citizens who have taken intens" interest
in school reform. and who were instrumental
in procuring the passage of the excellent law
now in force. The question in their minds is
exclusively one of duty to the city. President
Gilman was preferred TO Mr. Jasper bccauS"
his record was guarantee Of hs pre-cmneni
qualifications for the office Of superintendent.
II there had been available Il man of higher
quality he would have been preferred 10 Dr.
Gilman. II is precisely the same in the matter
of the supcIvisOrship Of kindergarlenS. the
appointment Of Miss Merrill is nj present advo-
Gated because Of the abundant evidence that
Miss Merrills training has been such as to tit
her for the work. For this reason she is much
preferred to Mrs Williams, and for no other
reason If we knew that Il person better quail
fled than Miss Merrill could be obtained we
should consider II the imperative duty of the.
Board Of Education 10 secure her services.
This. as we understand it. is the principle of
action which Il minority of the Board of Edu
cation are resolved 10 follow N all times II Is
n satisfaction TO believe that before very long
the minority will become majority.
