MAMMOTH hInICS.
With Heads Full of Wisdom and
 Trunks Full of Tricks.

If asked the somewhat pointed and suggestive question, "Have you seen the elephant?" many would be com pelled to halting admit that, in one way or another, they had caught Festive glimpses of him, but none of them have seen the elephants unless they have visited the great animal Rnd arenic aggregation which is to be Fin our midst' on June IT, and seen his pachydermatous majesty of Afri- ean and Asiatic jungles in ponderous Plumbers to the best advantage, and Under the most surprising and enter 5aining conditions. How so? Why, because he will immensely, marvellous y and hflariously materialize, and the TWO most celebrated and most saga zcious separate herds of him, one of which is the original and only Adam Forepaugh herd, and the other that of Sells Brothers; both appearing simul- Eaneously, and each perfectly and sur prisingly Illustrating the methods and Surprisingly illustrating the methods bnd results of different schools of Training.

A WORD WITH THE GIRLS.
Learn to Do the Little Things That Give Enjoyment to Yourself
 and Others.

It is the girl who does things in this and to her own sex, which last counts a little, too, in the long run. You may not be able to do great things, to paint great pictures or to sing in grand opera, but you can learn to make bright little things for yourself and your friends and perhaps the light catchy" airs of the day so that your friends will enjoy them, and if you can't do anything else cultivate the art of talking brightly and of being sympathetic, says Good Housekeep- ing.
 Every girl can do one thing we'll if she will only take the trouble to find out what that thing is. The difficulty is that she often looks in the opposite direction; she wants to do something great and shoWy or nothing at all. But there are other talents within reach if she will only look, and these talents may be such a comfort to her in her dark hours that they will make life better and happier both for herself and those about her.
 How the world likes a cheerful, plucky girl who makes a brave fight and hides her skeleton in a closet in- stead of folding her hands and whfn- ing because things don't come her way the girl who puts her own griefs Rs much as possible aside and who takes wholesome interest in life-is the one who wins out every time.

THE SYRIAN BARBER BOWL.
A Novelty in Tonsorial Utensils That Is Popular with Some New
 Workers.

CT have quite a number of novelties from my country" said the Syrian bar Der in Washington street, relates the New York Times, "but keep them for my American customers. The Syrians want the latest Yankee notions. Of course, once in awhile an old mountain ger happens in who longs for the ancient customs, but he is only a bird of pas sage-a maker of laces or>a peddler of saddlebags-goin through the metrop- oils to some other city.
 '"The Syrian bowl seems tosplease New Workers most. A number of artists come to my shop just to have 1t used on them. Here 1t is. Quite ornate, isn'tit They're not all alike, but I keep this one because my customers admire the inlaid work on it, and while I'm shaving them enter tain them with the story of 1t or, the in dustries of the villagers who produce this kind of merchandise. The shape is the egg-basin. The semicircular brim fits the neck of the customer, and if he likes he can use silver wire clasps about the ears. Tn Syria the 1ather is made right In the bowl with the hand and applied by the hand to the face of the customer, but. New Workers won't have that, they like the brush dipped in. The native brush is unique, made of soft split grass, but only my people stand for it; the smooth, tender skin of Yankees can't stand it's harshness of fiber.
 My people like plenty of perfume put in the bowl, but perfumes and scented soaps make Anglo-Saxons mad. Weuse moistened, scented clay after shaving as sort of powder for the face. It is splendid for the skin and acts as a disin- fectant, but though import quite lot of it from the mountain country, have hard time to get rid of it among my for eign clients. Lately some ladies have been buying it to use in their cosmetics. They are finding outfits medicinal quali- ties, and they don't have the prejudice against it that the men seem to have. A society woman happened into my shop day or two ago and bought Syrian K barber bowl and an ear razor for shaw | ing the inside of the ear. These razors are fine things, and all the nobility use them at home. I showed her how to handle the blade and told her to be care- full and always employ the tiny ear-mir- TOT with it.
 "She thanked me, but replied: "Oh, dear me, wouldn't use that beautiful thing for any horrid purpose like that. want it for an ornament; sort of book leaf cutter"
 Made Soup of Congressman's Beans.
 Representative Mahon, of Pennsyl- vania, is laughing over letter just re- ceived from a nice old lady residing in his congressional district. He sent a package of beans secured from his quota at the agricultural department to this lady, thinking she would like to plant them in her garden.
 Tn replying, the lady addressed the Pennsylvanian, whose name was writ ten indistinctly on the frank, as "'Mr. Mackin." She said: Those were spIen- did beans you sent me. cooked them for dinner and they made the finest soup ever tasted. Thank you ever so much. ch."-Washingto Post.

 Al ern city, recently made a production of Romeo and 'Juliet'' for the benefit of a local institution. Besides being a riduculously crude presentation, the musical setting of the play was most incongruous. The leader of the local orchestra, whose purpose was to make his part of the programme T credit to himself, concluded that to do so he should use popular music, with which the townspeople were familiar. The consequence was that during the fa- nous balcony scene the band played "I'd Leave My Happy Home for You oo-oo," in the chorus of which the gall lery joined with whistle and voice. Later, during the scene where '"Ty- balt'' stabs ''Mercutio, the act was committed to the lively tune of Johnny, Get Your Gun.'' "Go Way Back an Sit Down" was the inciden- tai music that accompanied "Romeo's" killing of Paris" while the death scene in the tomb was hurried through to the strains of "A Hot Time in Old Town Tonight
