The Old Stone Mil.

There is one thing in Newport that
the blizzard could not stir-the old
stone mill. The fact seems to be that
this old Naseman relic grows more
solid, stoid and fixed the longer it is
exposed to the elements. Assail 1t eve,
so fu.sously, from the north. from the
south, from the east or from the west,
tho storms Of years make no impression
|1on 1T except mayhap to press its ever.
lasting foundations firmer in their bed.
Generations of Newporters come and
go, but the old stone mill goes on for
ever. Drenching rains cannot soften its
sides, heaving frosts cannot stir its
arches. freezing SHOWS cannot split it,
parts. It is indestructible.
s. IF mutilation or destruction comes
to the old mill, it will come not from
the elements, but. from the same icono.

The Grief of Parting.

The man leaned right into the rail-
way carriage. There was positive an
guish in his drawn face. The lady In
side was very pretty and beautifully
dressed. Her softnesses of complexion
and hair, of lace and flmy material,
triumphed in the searching glare Of the
electric light, which showed the rich
luxury of every detail Of her costume.
She smiled with q pretty, regretfql
tenderness as she replied lightly to his
earnest works. He looked at her as If
he could never look long enough, as II
her face held for him, the Whole mean.
ing Of life. As the train began to move;
his fingers fell passionately on the un-
gloved hand resting ON the window
ledge; then instinctively he sprang
back. raised his hat. and I caught IN
full light q glimpse Of bis white face.
Directly the train steamed out of the
station the lady rose, carefully rolled up
her veil. and, quite Indifferent TO my
presence, proceeded before the mirror In
the carriage to dust her face with a
dainty pocket handkerchief, and to ap-
ply to forehead and nose the minutest
layer of powder with a tiny puff. She
patted and arranged her curls, drawing
them with a hairpin into coquettish po-
sition and curve, and then, lowering her
veil, she sank into the seat with a.sigh
of satisfaction.

And He Hns Good Reason 70 After

'There is physician now stopping

Of one of the hotel barber shops, "who
has mortal dread of a razor in the
hands of another. It originated IN q re-
markable experience Some years ago
he was in town in Iowa and stepped
into a barber shop TO get shaved. All

wait. In few minutes one of the bar
bers called 'Nextl' and he was getting
up when a gentleman who had juss en-
tered addressed him. x...,

train, he said, and would Be vszy

told him to go ahead and resumed hie

into position when the barber picked
up razor and cut his throat from ear
to ear, killing him instantaneously.
I'm epite of stories to the contrary,
think that is the only case Of the kind
that ever happened in the United
States. The barber turned out to be In
sane, but the horror of the scene end
the almost miraculous character Of his
own escape made such an impression
on the mind Of the doctor that he has
never since allowed anybody to shave
him.
"Only this morning I trimmed his
hair, and in finishing the job started,
as is customary, to shape up the growth
Of his temples with the corner of my
razor. The moment he caught sight Of
the blade he turned pale as death.

ed. DO the best you can with the scis-
sors and let the rest gol He has known

cence was too much for him, and, really,

walk lay through the first block Of
West Fifty-seventh street, where I used
regularly to meet milkman delivering
milk. He would take from his wagon q
rack containing several bottles and go
from house to house, while his old gray
horse walked sedately on alone.

pair midway the block the man said to
his horse: .,...
''Go on, Jim, and turn at No. T."
