HAIR TELLS CHARACTER.
Color of Hair Said to Indicate . Per-
 sons Temperament.

Many people believe that blonde, or light hair denotes affection and dark hair conStancy. A person without hair is not devoid of character; far from 1t. The disposition of the average bald headed man is to show such solicltude for the welfare of others, that he neg lects himself. A germ causes badness. Prof. Sa5ouraud. of Paris, France, in- nocculated a rabbit with Dandruff germs, causing it to become totally bald fin five weeks time. To rid the scalp of these dangerous germs 1t is necessary to apply Newbro's Herpicide.

What a Wh0pper.

A Mississippi man is respon-
sible for the following: CALI.
gators live a long time and it
takes them a long time to die.
Formerly, on the Tombigbee
River, there was for years a log
at a shallow landing, upon
which passengers were in the
habit of stepping in passing
from the steamer to the shore.
At last the "log" turned out to
be an alligator. His final dy ing
agonies occurred just as a half
a dozen passengers were walk
ing on him to the bank. He
heaved up, shook himself, and
threw several ladies into the
mud. One fat gentleman fell
upon his hands and knees and
the alligator spanked him so
hard that the man flew through
the air like a rocket and fell
back upon the deck of the steam
er. Imagine the surprise OF
those passengers! That alliga-
tor was twenty-four feet long
and he had been Eve years dy'

the alligator has thus acquired
a dainty mouthful he shuts his

You can never tell what kind
of a girl she is till you see her
handle herself in a hammock.
One of the most difficult
things for a woman to resist is
wondering how she would look
in d widows weeds.
When woman rides on a
railroad pass she always feels
she makes restitution to the
company by tipping the por-
ter.
The best investment a man
ever makes is the IS he lends
to chap who never pays it
back, but if he did would bor- =
row twenty.
There is hardly anything in
the world more clever than the
way a woman laughs at your
joke when it is the other fellow
that she thinks is witty.
Content is something you
think other people have when
they haven't.
Maybe Adam put up that
whole apple game just to get
discharged from his farmin G
job.
Any woman would be morti-
fed to death if she went swim
ming dressed the way she goes
to dinner.
It's terrible hard to convince
a woman that just because you
are saying nothing you are not
thinking ugly things against
her.
When a man spends the night
playing poker with the presi-
dent of his company his wife is
pretty sure he is explaining to
him all the reason he has shown
her why he could run the COM
pauy better.-New York Pr ess-

A Small Blaze.

A very exciting time occurred
at the home of J. W. Rouse last
Saturday afternoon ; Mr.. Rouse
had fourteen ton of coal stored
in his coal house for future use,
but didn't want to use until the
weather got a little cooler, but
the sun became so warm that
the coal became ignited in the
center of the pile and began to
burn very rapidly. He and
neighbors rolled up their
sleeves and made a scatter
ment, like you seldom see. A
large per cent of the coal had
to be thrown out before the fire
could be reached, but they sub
dued the flame in due time and
the next dreaded job is to get
the coal back into the house.
This will be a change of work
for the owner and his force af-
ter working hours should they
aspire to do it.-Bucklin Her
