Heavy-WeiRht Woman AyvheeE
A very fat woman, who was learning
to ride bicycle under the tutelage of a
very thin young man, succeeded in
cutting wide swath in the vicinity of
Broad and Federal streets recently,
After the woman had barely learned to
mount she wriggled out into Broad
street and succeeded in crashing into
a triplet wheel, sending the riders in a
heap among very nest of wheels. For
tunately no one was injured, but there
was blue air in abundance. The thin
man and policeman finally dragged
the woman and her bicycle to the side
walk, and she was about to laugh,
when her eyes rested on what remained
Of her wheel. The handlebars looked
like corkscrew, the lantern was as fiat
as pancake, and the wheels seemed to
he twisted in all directions. This, to-
gether with the remarks of few rude
youngsters, who suggested that she
could carry ice with it and keep cool,
only added to her ire, and she was fin
ally requested to move on, so that the
sidewalk could be cleared. She moved.

ana Some Facts CenesRning lt.
One does not naturally look to SCOT
land as q source Of supply of jokes and
pleasantries, but there has recently Ap-
pcared (and 1t is now going the rounds
of the press) what may perhaps--6e
described as Scotch joke. 1t 10 as
follows: Greater Glasgow is often
held up as modern municipality.
There is something in the claim. With
a population Of $4,000. it has only 494
doctors" Scotch physicians hold a
high rank in their profession; perh Ups
the fact should be considered as part
Of the joke that with population Of
s53. 900 Glasgow has only 494 doctors.
There are in the United States more
than 100000 doctors, and it has not
been observed by anybody that the
death rate is less in those localities
in which the number of physicians is
small than in those in which, as in New
York and in most important northern
cities, it is large. As q matter Of fact,
and as the official figures show, what
ever may be the case in Glasgow, there
are actually more physicians in pro-
portion to the total number Of inhab-
itants in Scotland than in any other
portion of the United Kingdom, the
number of physicians and surgeons in
Scotland being $50 per million inhab-
itants, to $50 in Ireland and $50 in Eng
land. Indeed, there are more physi-
clans in proportion to the population
in Scotland than in any other country
of Europe. In Italy and Russia there
are fewer than 900 doctors for each
million inhabitants; in France. Ger,
many, Spain, Holland aid Belgium,
there ore from 800 to 400*:. It is never
possible to compute with entire accu.
racy, however. the number of ply.

in some countries, surgeons are An

Fads Of the season,

Cloth skirts are much worn with
blouse waists of the same color, and
such costumes are effective in the ex-

Tucks may fairly be said to be the
trimming of the hour, for almost every
gown shows some, and many are
tucked from the throat to the hem of
the skirt.
The latest addition to the up-to-date
wardrobe is q skirt or costume of black

PASSING OF LORD FAvmrLEaov.


TAo AotheF Tried e De Brave when
the Golden Curls Fell.
The scene was in Ninth street bar
ber shop and the time was morning
earlier in the week. The ''tonsorial art
ist' nearest the door had just called out
''Next!" when there entered q very
pretty young woman leading by the
hand q four-year-old boy, with long,
golden ringlets. He was manly look
ing little fellow, and his hair was just
the shade of the young woman's, al
though she looked almost too young to
be his mother.
"Are you the man who cut this little
boys bangs last time?" she asked.
"Yes'm; want 'em cut again?"
mo, not this time. I want his hair
cut short all over. And won't you try
to cut each curl off separately, for I
want to send some of them out Of town
and one to his grandmother"
She had q pasteboard box in her hand
in which to take away the gold that was
more precious to her than any that has
come from Klondike. She said she
wanted the little boys hair cut. Itwas
probably the lads father who wanted
it; she had only acquiesced.
Several of the ebony-hued artists
gathered around to watch, while the
lad took his seat in big chair, as proud
as Punch, for he was to be a 'mother's
little Lordy Fauntleroy" no longer. He
smiled, but there was a suspicious
tremor about his mothers lips as she
took brush, and for the last time
curled his beautiful ringlets about her
slim and tapering finger.
Snip, snip! went the scissors, and one
by one the curls were carefully laid
away in the box. Before the last one
was gone the young mother was hud-
died up in the bootblack's chair crying
as II her heart would break. There was
no doubt now that she was the child's
mother. He was a baby no longer. It
was much more comfortable for the
child, and it was time it was done, and
all that, but just the same he would
never be mammals little baby again,
and she could not see the wealth of
falling gold for the tears in her eyes.
Not man in the place smiled, and
even the "Shine, mister" seemed to see
bit of pathos in the scene. The barber
over in the corner had to stop a mo-
mentwhile theman he was shaving wiped
sudden tear from his own eye. The
man, gray-haired and somewhat crusty,
was thinking of lock of gold tucked
away in the back of his desk in q busy
downtown Office, and his memory had
gone back to the time when he tucked
that strand beneath his blue soldiers
blouse and with musket on his shoulder
had started for the front.

Roses in masses were on the mantels,

in fact, the abundance of flowers was

when the dessert was brought in, said:
