Clifford b. Hlldreth Is the proprietor
of a hotel at York Beach, Me-, few
miles from a promontory known as
Baldhead Cllff. The place Is wild and
picturesque, and is the mecca Of many
summer visitors.
Hidreth is called "CliGf" by all who
know him. His head has pushed
through his hair, and he has little
use for a comb. A few weeks ago a
party Of tourists stopped in front Of
his hotel, and, seeing Mrs. Hildreth on
the veranda, one of the men called out:
"Can you tell me where Baldhead
Cliff is?"
"He must be around the house some
where" said Mrs. Hildretb. III saw
him Just a few minutes ago" She was
not disconnected by the slangy title
tnat she believed the tourist had be-
slowed on her husband.

years, and who has recently died In
Sharon. Mimi, leaving not single
descendants that of Mrs. Iurehear%
Wakely. By her death the oldest wo.
man Of Minnesota has been removed
from the scene of her remarkable life
Mrs Wakeley was Ill years of age,
Despite the fact that she was married
three times and became the mother
of fourteen children, who all lived to
the age Of % years or more, and many
of whom married and became fathers
and mothers, yet all of Mrs. Wakeley's
husbands relatives died before she
did, and at her death she left not a
relative to survive her.
Three months before her birth, OH
July 8, 1903. her father, one Of the I'm
perial guards Of the person of the
Dauphin of France, was killed by the
Jacobin shoemaker, Antoine Simon, to
whom the young prince was given in
charge by the revolutlonists. Her
mother, who was English by birth,
died in giving birth to her only child,
and a distant English relative named
her Pureheart. Her fathers name
was Isadore Dumorureiz.
At the age of sixteen Pureheart
Dumoureiz was married to a captain
IN the English army, who, two years
later, was killed at the battle of Wat
erloo. The young widow, shortly after
her bereavement, came to the United
States with a party of emigrants, and
four years later married man named
Edward Gray, who enlisted in the
army and was the first American
soldier killed by the Mexicans, Aug.
10, 1S47, in the first attack on the City
of Mexico.
She then went to California with
a party of gold seekers in 1850, and
there, in 1860, married Oscar Wakeley,
a successful miner. Two years later
the Wakeleys removed from California
to Johnstown, Pa, where their num-
erous descendants lived, and where
forty-three members of the family, all
Of them except Mrs. Wakeley and one
son, were drowned in the food of
May, 1880.
With this son Mrs. Wakeley went to
Minnesota and bought large farm
near Luverne. Six years later she
and her son rented the farm and NOV
ed to Galveston, Tex, where the son
lost his life in the tidal wave that
overwhelmed that city. Mrs. Wakeley
escaped and went back to the Min
nesota farm, where she resided until
her death.

Woburn Abbey.

The Duchess of Bedford, who died
in 1859, was rather weakminded, and
unhappiIy her education did little to
disguise the defects which nature had
imposed upon her. Her great dread
was to have a visitor at Woburn abbey
who would ask her hard questions
about the foundation and history of
the abbey. So IL she had savant In
the party she always asked a man of
higher rank to meet him, so that she
might not be taken In to dinner by
the savant. Once, as bad luck would
have it, she got Lord Stanhope, the
historian, who, though he had to take
her in to dinner, was none the less a
savant. AS soon as he sat down to
dinner he began the dreaded inquiries
about the date of the abbey. The poor
duchess, much frustrated, said:
II have very poor head for these
historical things, but will tell you all
l know. The founder was crusader
who, finding himself in great danger
in battle, vowed that If he got home
to Europe safe he would do anything
the Pope told him. He got back safe
and went to Rome, and the Pope told
him to build a Cistercian abbey, and
he built Woburn abbey. That's all l
know"
Lord Stanhope said, THAT is exactly
what wanted, for If you can tell me
which Pope 1t was can approximate.

"Oh," said the duchess, II always
understood it was the Pope of Romer

HOW TO guy A HAIR sRuslA
Points 20 He Considered Before coalnR
the Transaction,

the Transaction.
The FIRST essential OF good hair
brush ls that the brlstles should really
be bristles, not limitations, and that
they should be OF a good kind. Rus.
stan bristles are the best; they are OBJ
tained from the back OF the wild boar,
Russian bristles are very stiff, taper.
ing In shape. about seven inches In
length. and either black or white,
These are the longest and stiffest Of
all: only the butt end IL used for hair
brushes, and the other end. known as
the flag" ia employed for making
painting and decorating brushes,
The dag tapers very thin. and ends
in several sprouts, 20 that It makes u
very soft and flexible brush. The butt
end OF the Russian bristle may be rec.
ognlxed by Its thickness, for no other
brlstle has so large diameter.
The next best variety is the Chi.
nese, and Is sent from Tientsin; Il Ia a
black brlstle. about Ave and a half
inches In length. and less stiff than the
Russian. It Is not 20 durable as this
latter but In other respects 1t Ia not
far behind.
German bristles vary In length and
quality; they are black, white, and
brown. and the length ranges from six
inches to mere stump OF an inch or
SO. The white are regarded as the best
of all these German varieties, and con.
sequently fetch the highest price.
American bristles are short, ranging
from two and a half TO three and a
half inches; they are soft and flexible,
and for that reason are not 80 well
adapted for the manufacture OF hair
brushes; however. they are cheap. and
are therefore largely used to mix with
the sitter kinds. This, by the way, Is
one Of the points to be noted when
buying-see II ali the bristles have the
same stiffness,
Yet'another variety Is that obtained
from the sea cow; these bristles are
hard and durable, and they are black
in color.
Imitation bristles in the shape of a.
bers are often used. TO detect the true
bristle from the imitation, and also to
ascertain the quality OF the real ar
ticle, run your finger down the cen.
ter of the brush; II the bristles spring
back quickly into the straight, up
right position, they are genuine, but
IL they return slowly 10 the original
position. II will be well to examine
them more closely, for this lack Of re-
silence, or springiness, is one Of the
signs by which you will recognize the
fiber.
See that the bristies are secured 10
the back of the brush by wire.--Pear-
sons Weekly.

When one reads the story OF man
who after pleading guilty 10 man-
slaughter Is sentenced to six months
Imprisonment. and of another who af-
ter pleading guilty TO the theft OF 30
cents is sentenced 10 three years penal
servltude, the first thought is that such
a pair of sentences as that could only
be possible in barbarous land where
injustice and malice masqueraded as
justice and right. Yet just such sem
tences in just such cases were given
In the criminal courts Of London one
day couple of weeks ago. And what
is more they exhibited discriminating
and intelligent administration of JUS
tice, far In advance of the courts Of our
forefathers. and In advance. indeed, Of
most of the courts of to-day. The muir
der in question was committed In a ut
Of passion by man of excellent repu-
tation, who had aimed rather to fright
en- than to injure the woman whose
life he took. The judge felt that the
crime had brought its own punishment,
anu that the criminal would be bet
ter rather than a worse member Of So
ciety In the future because OF the aw-
full lesson he had received. The theft
was committed by an able-bodied man
who made his living by "short-chang-
ing" shopgirls. He had been swim
dler and thief from his boyhood, and
repeated sentences, including pre-
vlous one to three years hard labor.
had not caused him to reform. He
was manlfestly beast OF prey, and
permanent menace to society. He was
put out Of harms way for as long
term as the law would permit. The
modern world is learning that 1t has
to deal with such a thing as profes-
sional crime, which must be punished
in a manner different from other kinds
of crime. It's knowledge is the result
Of a psychological development an In
creased insight into human conduct.
Future criminal codes are bound to
show the effects, and 1t is perhaps not
rash to say that, however fiourishing
crime as a trade is to-day, the time
will come when society Will no more
tolerate 1t than it would cannibalism
or the burning furnaces Of Baal.
