WHILE HE WAS WORKING.
the Barber RECALLED HE Victim with
an Illustrative Instance of
Ignorance.

The barber tucked a towel under a
customers chin and then cleared his
throat, relates the Philadelphia Press
a victim-I mean a customer of mine,' %
ae began, told me a story the other day
which illustrates to my mind, at least,
that some men really don't know the diff
;erence between patent medicine and
Schuylkin water. It was this way:
This customer of mine had friend
who had great deal of trouble with his
hair. It was all the time falling out. He
asked all his friends what he could get
TO keep it in. Most of them suggested
that he get a basket, but finally one OF
them told him of a patent medicine.
$50 the man whose hair was bothering
him got bottle of the medicine and dis
covered that it was a dark brown sticky
stuff that he was to rub on his hair five
times a day. He tried it the first day,
and it appeared to do good, but the sec.
ond day some one got there first, and
emptying the bottle of medicine, filed it
up with sarsaparilla. And all day long
that poor man rubbed the soft drink on
his hair and never noticed the difference.
But he did notice, though, that,there was
an unusually. large number of flies swarm
ing about his head. Bay rum?"

The guns were loaded with blank cart
ridges, and no harm was done; but the
detachment happened to be on the same
side of the sham fight as the company
which had fred at it.
The commanding officer came riding up.

Clubs Should BE Formed.

Mrs. Cora G. Lewis, of Kinsley, read
a paper before the state board Of agri-
culture on 1.-THE Social Center Of the
Country Neighborhood," which was a
plea for the country club and better
and more pleasant surroundings for
the country schoolhouse. She pointed
out the lack of social and literary ad-
vantages that are to be found in many
country localities. She urged that
clubs be formed in all OF the country
neighborhoods, and that the men and
women and children attend them
