Men who Scalp Themselves.

Eve still find men who have unlimit.
ed faith In the old fashioned idea of
giving their hair o strokes with the
brush night and morning." said the
old barber. "Some of them are not
content with the old fashioned hogs
bristle brush. They use a wire brush.
electric or otherwise. It's all u fake.
A brush drags out the hair by the roots
much more quickly than "A comb. A
man who wants to save his hair should
use the brush as little as possible. With
women 1t is different. They have thick.
long hair, and II 1t is not brushed
daily 1t is likely to fall out. Besides, ii
brush gives gloss TO the hair. and that's
what women like. But with a man a
healthy head of hair looks as well
without the gloss us with 1t. All that
is necessary for him is to keep the
scalp clean and use the comb He has
very little use for the brush."-New

A Criminal Pm ra disc.

Spain's criminal settlement in the
Zafarina islands is said to be quite n
paradise of convicts. Their liberty Is
restricted only so far that they must
not leave the islands and Il return
at night to prison unless they obtain
leave of absence for the night. At u
o'clock in the morning the convictS
leave the prison. Some do IA little
work, but the majority go straight to
the various wine shops and hosteiries,
where they pass the day drinking. sing
ing and occasionally breaking the
monotony of life with a little knitting,
for each respectable prisoner carries
his ''faca" (knifeJ day and night with
him. This idyllic state of things APP
pears less strange If one considers that
the prison warders-the ''capatares"-
are the liquor teller of the islands and
that II good deal of Illicit trading is
carried On in those places of resort,
