curls for Men Coming Into Fashion

From the New York Press
 Curled hair for men Is coming in again.
 q had two yalets here yesterday. said the old barber. teaching them the mys- tery of curling mans hair. They want ed only the wave. the most beautirui or all curis. But that will be followed py the long front curled love leck that you see in the pictures of the fashionable men of thirty years ago, I went ten years without having a man in my chair that wanted a curl, Six months ago one came Since then I have averaged one a week. I know it is coming,
 eDoes the young barber knew hew to set a curl? Not a bit of it. You must learn inc trade. You must work ever the wig on the block for months before you can do justice to the beauties of a right curl. We old fellows learned 1t, just the same as we learned to shape beard, A new generation of barbers must come m or the present ones must begin, after all these years, te learn their trade:
 seThe square jawed, smooth shapen, nat haired man is going out. The bearded, curled man. such as the fathers et this Eeperation were when young, are femi1g in.''

Milwaukee Sentinel.

From the Milwaukee Sentinel.
 Jason was about to embark on his cruise after the Golden Fleece.
 Are you in good training?" asked the reporter. who had been sent to the dock for an interview.
 Finer than silk" answered Jason, 1T never felt better in my life"
 And about the Fleece. What if you don't bring it back?"
 Well" answered Jason, as he lit "a cheroot and stepped aboard. 'I won't be any worse off than Lipton. anyhow
 So saying. he gave the signal to start. Pluto was having an argument with his watchdog. Cerberus.
 "I say you should not have let them pass" said he.
 And I maintain that I should." growl- ed Cerberus.
 What right" demanded Pluto. have you to contradict mel"
 You ought to know" said Cerberus, that three heads are better than one" Finding that he had lost the argument, Pluto satisfied himself with roasting Chicago university professor who had just arrived.

season spent at great exposition as
 beneficial as four years course at col lege. He spoke from personal experience, being a graduate of Yale and having been identified with the Pan-American Expo- tion at Buffalo in a capacity which ena- bled him to make a thorough study of the
 enterprise in all its branches
 There are today in New York and other
 cities of America and in Europe num-
 Der of men and women gaining place and fame in the fine arts, such as painting
 and sculpture, who acknowledge that the
 Columbian Exposition at Chicago gave them their first definite inspiration to-
 ward the artistic life. There ares poets
 and novelists teachers and lecturers, who ! received from that exposition such im- pressions of beauty and such deepening of knowledge as enabled them to find their proper life-work. Hundreds of thou sands of young men and women who are
 children ten years ago, and who were
 privileged to spend a number of days at the Chicago Wold's Fair now look back with gratitude for the permanent inn pressions received there, which have
 served to broaden their views and give them a moral and spiritual uplift that endows their lives with lasting bsne- fit.
 In manufacturers mining agriculture. the displays of both products and pro- 1 CeSSeS-InlDBS IldQe anu things ildhlIB-
 will be marvelously comprehensive. Ore finds it difficult to withhold the predic- ton that multitudes of boys and youths who visit this exposition will absorb im pressions which will be the primary in- f1uence toward shaping their careers. This lad form the backwoods of Arkansas will
 watch with curious interest the operation of shoe-making machinery. Twenty years hence he may be one of the great
 est captains of commerce in the manu- facture of shoes. That boy from ther- , prairie town of Illinois will be attracted
 by the mining in the great mining gulch,
 and the next generation may know him
 as an inventor of improved mechanism or processes for converting the crude ore in-
 to the metals of commerce. And this
 pallid urchin from one of the great cities,
 who, through his overwhelming curiosity
 to see things has been enabled to visit
 the exposition, may find in the agricul-
 tural exhibits something that will cause
 him to forsake the sordid narrowness of
 his city life and become happy and use-
 ful farmer.
 The argument is heard that expositions
 come too frequently. There are those
 who hold that America should not have
 attempted another universal exposition
 in the same generation that beheld the one at Chicago. But, it should be remem-
 bered that ten years have passed since that event, a new generation of children
 have grown up; millions who were too
 young ten years ago to receive material
 benefit from attendance at an exposition are now at an impressonable age, and are eager to see and learn.

WHAT HAPPENED ABOARD
 THE GALLANT HEAVE HO

The old soldier in the Seaman's boarding house finished his saucer of rice pudding and then smaeked his lips, says the Phil Delphia Record. T fit a battle with rice wunst, and got licked" he said. Didn't I ever tell ye about it? Back in '79 the thing happened. I wuz a foremast hand on the brig Heave Ho, bound for Ceylon to Frisco with full cargo of rice In the hold. sH-c
 ''All went well till we wuz seven days out. Then the Heave Ho sprung leak. It was small leak. and at first we thunk nothin of it; only we noticed arfter we had been working the pumps while that the durned thing didn't seem to fetch up no water. There wuz the water leekin' into the Heave Ho all right, but no soon- CT did it enter than it disappeared; the pumps couldn't get smell of it.

Now and then one hears the query, in relation to the great Worlds Fair which is being prepared for opening at St Louis Ut is worth while? This query comes from ,hose who. after viewing the rapidly growing spectacle, are possessed of the feeling that it Is great pity to build so nightly and so beautifully and then destroy. s
 ! You are creating here,' they say, "a colossal spectacle which will, shine re- fsplendently, dazlingly, bewilderingly, for a period and then fade again into noth- ingness Is It worth while to expend so much money and such stupendous ener- $ gies of art and industry upon thing which, for all the magnificence, must be torn down and oarted away so soon? Those who ask this question look
 merely at the material side of the ex- position, ignoring the deeper signifi- canoes of it. The man of keener spiritual vision dscerns weighty reasons to sup port the theory that the exposition is in- deed worth wh he sees in every one of it's multitude cf Features something which suggests that despite the leveling hand of the destroyer that needs must follow
 
 not die when it's minarets are shaken . down and it's temple broken into frag
 ments.
 Itis not an exaggration to say that mill lions of persons who visit this exposition E will carry away with them impressions ]. which will outlast even their own lives, and, having wrought beneficial effects upon themselves will be passed down to
 their posterity.
 Every exposition is educative; even the county fair has it's instructive side. I recall to mlnd a certain boy who, until his teath year, had not been beyond his small native villege. He attended the fair at the county seat and saw, for the a first time in his life, things collected for display He was amazed There opened 4pp Ito him wider view of life than he had known. For years thereafter he !, talked of the wonders of the county fair and when he became thrice as old and a man of celebrity in his state noted representative in congress, a brilliant orator, a profound scholar he was wont 10 sneak of that old-fashioned county fair as the influence that had awakened his hitherto sluggish being and given him new outlook upon life.
 E The Louisiana Purchase Exposition will be to county fair as a solar system to A feck of star-dust. If the homely little exhibition of farm products in the fenced enclosure at the county seat proves an awakening influence upon the mind of the country boy, what shall we say of an ex- position in which the minute detail or all industries all arts, all science is built up, item by item, into a word-embraclng composite of display, wherein use and beauty go hand and hand?
 The Worlds Fair whose gates will be thrown open the 3Oth day of next April is to be an all-inclusive exposition of what the world has done and Is doing
 and how it has done and Is doing it, A gentleman who recently visited the grounds remarl ed that he considered

absorbin' the water fastern we can pump it out. The rice is a-swellin'. If 1t keeps on a-swelln' it'll bust the ship
 "So then there began 8 battle betwixt us an the rice as to who was to get the water that leaked in. We pumped, l tell ye; we worked hard; but, hard as we worked, the rice worked harder-it col Jared more O the water than we did, an it kep' a-swellin' an a-swe1lin'. At the end O the second day the blanks an timbers began to groan. They WIZ bein' wrenched an twisted out O place by the swellin' O that bloomin' rice.
 "'We'n have to take to the boats men, the skipper sez at the end, an to the boats we took, leavin' the Heave Ho on starry night.
 "We didn't leave her none to soon She busted an hour after we wuz gone. With a great rendin sound she busted, an a white cloud of rice shot up into the moon- lit air. A strange sight 1t were, lads, an one seldom saw by mankind"

Why Take Them?

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
 MT. Kammerer has been quite success full in taking photographs under water"
 .For goodness. sake! Whats the use of that? Why not tie a stone to them. and let them sink themselves?"

The highest price paid for seat in the Stock Exchange during 1903 was sS20O0. and the lowest s6s, ,00O What the price will be during the new year will, of course, de- pend cn the volume of speculation. The outlook in that line at the present time is not very brilliant, but member of the exchange tells me that conditions are im- proving, and that good spring boom Is certain to come along.
