Regarding a "4,Iosc" Shave.

"What makes my face so dry and
dusty?" asked man in one Of the
chairs at the Iotel barber shop.
"You shave toe Close replied the
barber. "You get down under the
skin and irritate it."
"Well, I have to shave close. I
don't want to bother with shaving
every day, SO [ get shave every
other day, and then get o good, close
one.'
'There's no need OF that," replied
the barber. "lhere isn't so much diff.
ference between q single goiny.over
and very close shave. After the
razor has been over your face once you
can still feel 6ne stubble. BY a sec.
ond or third scraping you can get the
face feeling perfectly smooth, but in
three hours time the beard has grown
out to where it was after the first 60
UNCOVER. What I mean is that you
save only about three hours by getting
what we call 'Fclose" shave, aud for
man who shaves every other day,
that isn't much Of On advantage. Be-
sides, it lrritates the face ana is liable
to make the skin hard and scaly. A
man who shaves himself simply goes
over his face once, but in barber
shop the customer thinks he is not
getting the worth Of his money unless
the barber scrapes for about ten min.
utes to get rid of that extra three
hours growth OF beard" -Chicago
Tribune.

The jackrabbit, long regarded
by the farmers of the great San
Joaquin valley in California as
a pest, may yet be esteemed FOR
his fur. The hatters of the East
are discovering that this particular
kind of fur is excellently adapted to
the manufacture Of felt of the best
quality, and in the near future we may
see big shipments of the skins to the
hat-making centres unless in the mean
time we have the sagacity to utilize
the product at our doors and engage
in the manufacture Of felt on our own
account.

Some facts of M instructive nature
relating to the stone industry are fur
nished by Mr.. Day in the annual re-
port of the United States geological
survey. 1t appears from this that GER
tain Of the Southern states arc grad
ually coming into prominence as ex-
tensive producers of stone, and also
that the sorts Of stone quarricd have
been modified of late years. An in
stance in point is to be found in Ala
bama, which in 1895, furnished more
thnn $3.50, 900 worth OF stone, mostly
limestone, although some sandstone is
worked there. A similar illustration
is presented by Connecticut, which
once divided tho sandstone Weld
with New Jersey, but produced last
year very little more sandstone than
Massachusetts, while New Jersey
showed only one-third as much as
Connecticut and little more than Kan
sas or Michigan; and Pennsylvania,
unknown few years ago as supplying
sandstone, recorded product in 1895
about equal to Connecticut and New
Jersey combined and more than auv
other state except Ohio. In granite
production Massachusetts keeps the
first place, with Maine not far off,
while Vermont is rapidly overtaking
Maine, and Rhode Island keeps up the
output from its splendid quurries in
and about Westerly to nearly $1,000
600 worth a year. New Hampshire
comes fifth on the list, with about
half rs much. In marble Vermont rs
usual, leads all tho other states, its
output being about doublc that of
Georgia, which is second in amount;
Teunsssee is third

Welcoming me in my dreams;
And those blissful memories haunt no
When with disappoin.y ut crossed,
And my tolls ana troubles !unt mo
With the joys that lost!

Germany pays foreign countries
about 81, 100000 year for fruit. The
recent move against American apples
may have been toward reducing ex-
penses and not because the deadly ba.
cillus was present in them.

Often when | think OF AL those
Scenes my heart with sadness llls.
And regretful I recall those
Happy days among the hills;
inspirations fair unnambered
Smiled upon those hills seren e.
Many dream Of pleasure siumbered
In those peaceful valleys green.
What ara fame and proud position
When the heart is i'll at case?
Where the good Of high ambition
When compared to such as these?
Ever I recall in vain tn ose
Rambles by the laughing rills,
And in my dreams l live again those
Happy days among the hills!
