I sat by his bed. felt of his pulse without disturbing him and walt ed for him to awaken. After few minutes a junk dealers cart with dis cordant ringing bells turned into the street, and as their first tones reached us my patient opened his eyes.

No amount of washing of the hair will keep 1t clean if dirty brushes are used, yet persons otherwise fairly neat are careless in, this respect. A special ist says that hairbrushes should be washed once week and, if used on hair in which there is much dandruff, twice a week is not too often. The brushes should be washed in cold, not hot, water, to which cloudy ammonia has been added in the proportion of q scant tablespoonful to quart of wa ter. Care should be taken not to wet the backs of the brushes, and when washed and rinsed-a good way to rinse them properly is to use a shower spray on them-they should be put on edge in the air to dry.

"A Nine Daya, wonder.v

The memorable reign of Lady Jane Grey Is said to have given rise to the phrase, "A nine days wonder" Lady Jane was proclaimed queen of England July 10, 1858, four days after the death of Edward VI. After the lapse of a period of nine days. on July 19, she re linquished her title to the crown, thus terminating her reign in the short space of week and a half. A noted Eng fish historian says. Thus we come to the end of the diary of that short and troubled reign that from its length is said to have given rise to the now 1620) popular phrase. "A nine days wonder s0

A story about the late James c. Bat terson, president of the Travellers h. surance company of Hartford. Ex-Gov- ernor Waller of Connecticut wanted to obtain charter for new corporation which he represented, and the opposi- tion called MT. Patterson as their star witness. He was asked by his own side only two questions
 You have liKed in Hartford a great many years, MT. Batterson?"
 'sYes, sir" a
 "Are you in favor of granting this charter?"
 "No, sir.''
 Here his lawyers rested, leaving the rest to chance, knowing that MT. Bat terson could keep his end up in any yer bal battle with ex-Governor Waller. The latter began by asking:
 "Mr. Patterson, you have lived here many years?'
 "I have"
 "Well, sir" added Governor Waller ''it is my wish that you may live in Hartford many more years. That is all sir"
 Thus was MT. Batterson's opportuni ty to talk shelved. Governor Waller knew his man.-New York Times.
