Some Mustache History.

What is the history of the mustache?
In Greece and Rome no mustaches
were worn without boards, but in the
conquering days Of the Roman empire
several half civilized races who had
come partially under the influence of
the Romans and who wished to be rid
of the name of barbara. or wearers of
boards, attempted to shave in imitation
Of their conquerors; but. as they had
7ery imperfect implements for the pur-
pose and as the upper lip is VIGOROUSLY
the hardest part of the face to shave in
the case Of any one poorly skilled in the
art. they were unable to make a clean
job of it and left a quantity of hair on
the upper lip.
This mark was characteristic Of sew
eral nations on the confines Of Roman
civilization. Of the Gauls in particular.
Of the Daciens and some others. The
Latin language has no word for mus
tache. This barbarous accident was
unworthy of the honor of a Roman
name.-Exchange.

The Dinner Hour.

1t is a curious fact that with almost
every generation the dinner hour has
undergone a change, the principal meal
of the day being eaten at different pc
RODS, from 10 O'Clock in the morning
until 10 o'clock at night. The author
Of The Pleasures of the Table, points
out that in England 400 or 500 years
ago people tool four meals-breakfast
at Z. dinner at 10. supper at 4 and liv-
cry at 8. In France In the thirteenth
century 8 in the morning was the din
ner hour: Henry VII. dined at IL. In
CromwelPs time l o'clock had come to
be the fashionable hour and in Addi-
sons day 2 o'clock, which gradually
was transformed into 4. Pope found
fault with Lady Suffolk for dining so
late as 4. Four and 5 continued to be the
popular dining hours ameng the aris-
tocracy until the second decade of the
nineteenth century, when dinner was
further postponed. from which period
1t has steadily continued to encroach
upon the evening.

One day a Brahman accidentally

Seeing no other way to get put of the

member amputated. Forthwith he went

The carpenter tried to dissuade the
devotee and urged that an application
Of some drops Of water from the sa-

persisted. He said that the finger was
Of no use to him any longer and that
be would not rest until it was severed.
Al a final ecourse b carpenter re-
solved to play his awkward customer a
trick. He told the Brahman to put his
finger on an anvil and to look to the
sky while the wound was inflicted.
The Brahman did SO. The carpenter
took up a Ratchet and gave the finger
a smart blow with the back of it. This
elected q cry Of pain from the pa

mouth to allay the agony. The carpen-

Rear Admiral Walker, head of the

rival from Colon on the Panama steam

eminent intended to keep the two open
ports in the canal zone in spite of pro-
tests which might be made by the Pan
anna government. He added that he did
not fear trouble over making Ancon, on
the Panama side of the isthmus, and
Cristobal, near Colon, free ports OF en-
try. The unfortunate part OF the al
fair" he said, sis that 1t has entered
local politics. OF course the outs have
to protest against what has been done
by the ms. I do not believe that the
establishment of the free ports will mean
that the Panama government will have TO
patrol both sides of the canal strip with
customs officials. l think an agreement
will be made with them so that we will
help them out. Goods brought into the
strip will not be allowed to enter Pan
anna territory" Rear Admiral Walker
said that the work of excavation was
proceeding twice as fast, with fewer men
and at half the cost under the French
company. Health conditions, he de-
clared, were excellent and the construc-
ton work was being systematized rapid
ly. He declared that statements which
have found their way into the press re-
lating to political excitement in Panama
were exaggerated. Everything at pres
ent was quiet and satisfactory to the
people Of Panama. he said.

jumping from the lower floors, but many
received severe burns. The financial loss

JAPS MAKE LIGHT OF LOSSES.
Tenacity and Numerical Superiority
Astounds the Russians.


A Russian correspondent Of the Asso-
ciated Press in graphic description OF
the fighting at Laoyang says: only the
Russian soldiers traditional splendid
qualities enabled them to support the
.errible conditions, of which the lack OF
sleep was the most unbearable. The
Japanese awaited themselves to the ut
most of rain and darkness and did not
cease fighting, their night attacks test
ing Russian endurance severely. Inc
Japanese suffered terribly, but made light
of their losses. They continually drafted
fresh reserves into the ranks to replace
the WORKOUT men. Indeed, the numerical
superiority of the japanese is astound-
ing and incompreehnsible, for after losing
enough men at Port Arthur and else
where to form perfect army their efec-
tive strength appears only TO increase
and they still are concentrating fresh
