THE "ChRiSTMAS FACE"
Type of CoantenAnoe seon In HOLIDAY
shopping Times.

The christmas face" has become
distinctive feature of modern life-as
much so Us the bicycle face" II makes
It's appearance annually few weeks
before the holidays. and gradually dis
appears toward spring. 1t can now be
seen on thousands of restless women
who wander anxiously up and down the
crowded streets, toiling from window
10 window, pushing their eager ways
into the dense knots of humanity and
staring with hungry eyes at the Christ
mas gifts displayed.
II is seen in the big stores where tho
chopper threads her weary way through
endless aisles and handles over the
huge piles OF Christmas offerings in
search OF something suitable"
1t takes weeks Of riding through
crowded streets TO acquire the "bicyclc
face" but the "Christmas face" usually
begins TO assume fixed lines after two
Gays shopping, and at the end OF a week
the earnest and energetic seeker after
bargains has developed a look of any-
ious. restless and painful expectancy
bordering on mild insanity.
The christmas face" is easily dis
tinguished. The eyes are never in re-
rose. They roll from side TO side and
take on haunted, hungry look as they
peer into the shop windows and lay
bare the innermost secrets OF bargain
counters. They rove over bewildering
acres Of fancy work and shrink with
bloodshot terror as they gaze into the
seas OF blue and green and yellow "art
works" displayed in the fake Christmas
stores. Often they light up with hope
ful tenderness as they rest lovingly upon
some rare hit of artistic beauty in met
al. oil. or fabric. but quickly darken
with despair when the price ticket is
displayed.
The mouth assumes a hardened cX-
preston. The lips are tightly drawn
into sour and sternly bitter curves at
the corners. The lines OF the cheeks are
sunken. and the brows are heavy with
doubt, and deeply corrugated. The
chin is pushed ont at an angle of about
90 degrees, and the entire countenance
betokens varying shades of sickening
anxiety, deferred hope and pathetic
martyrdom, all blended into a sort of
fixed and vacuous insanity.-Chicago

IN THE FAR WEST.
How Freighters Kept the wbisky's Weight
and Quality Unimpaired.

A. man at one Of the hotels the other
night told an interesting story of how
the freighters of the far west used to
supply themselves with whisky, says
the Louisville Courier-Journal. He
said that some years ago when all
freight was hauled in wagons, he hap
pened to make trip of several hun
dred miles with train Of wagons car
rying merchandise to remote stations
Nearly every wagon contained one or
more barrels Of whisky.
THE first night out | noticed" said
he, great activity around the whisky
barrels. The wagons each had
Ratchet and a gimlet. They would
knock up hoop. bore "A hole, draw all
the whisky they wanted, then put
about as much fine gravel in the barrel
Us they had drawn out whisky, drive a
plug in the hole and put the hoop back
in place.
II learned afterward that the bar.
rels were weighed and the whisky
tested before it was turned over to the
freighters. and that when il arrived at
its destination it was again weighed
and tested. The gravel supplied the
weight and bulk and the quantity re-
NAMED the same, and this is why IL
was used instead of water TO supply the
place OF what had been taken out"

PhRYoIAN CAP AND THE KNouT.
Means Taken by France to Keep Out
Russian Exiles.

The French republic, thanks to the
new alliance between the Phrygian cap
and the knout, has done its best to make
its soil insecure for those who fled from
the tyranny of czardom, says the North
American Review. Among Russian tx
lies living at Zurich, Geneva and Lau-
same spies have latterly been intro

JONES' SNAKE-KlLLiNo PIGS.
The Farmer Trained His Rasorbseks T.
Erterminats Serpents.


Talk about snakes said a resident
of Boston the other day, there are
more of 'em to the square acre in Flor
ida than in any other part of this glori-
Gus country. But as numerous as they
are they are not half as abundant as
they were few years ago, before any
organized effort was made TO annihi-
late the whole serpeutine breed.
at seems that a bright idea involving
the wholesale extinction of snakes en-
tered the mind of one William Jones,
who up to that time had been poor
farmer struggling to support a big fam
lily. Now he is one Of the solid men OF
the county, and he made all his money
by the successful execution of that
idea. He knew that the ordinary
razorback hog Of Florida was a great
natural enemy of snakes, and he set to
work to systematically train a whole
drove of hogs to hunt down and de-
stroy the reptiles. In a little while he
had his swine as thoroughly trained in
their part as setter dogs are drilled to
point quail. He first cleared his own
farm OF vast quantity OF big ones,
and then he began to hire out his hogs
to his neighbors who were snake-af-
fiicted. The fame of those razorbacks
spread all over the land and people
whose places were infested with rat
tlesnales and men who were clearing
up new land sent for Jones hogs.
This is no romance, for talked with
Jones himself and he told me all about
it, and exhibited his book of engage
ments, which also contained n record
of all the snakes slain for the last
twelve months | have every reason
to believe he was stating the facts, for
he gave me warm invitation to visit
his place and promises to give an ex-
hibition that would demonstrate the
skill of his snake-killers.
