CURIOUS WAGERS.
Freak Bets Won and Lost by the
Conservative BritOn.

In the year 1857 a farmer laid wa
ger that he would eat two dozen pen
ny mutton pies and drink gallon OF
ale in half an hour, n feat which ne
easily performed well within the spec
fled limit. In about half an hour aft
erward he devoured a threepenny loar
and pound Of cheese and then attack
cd a leg of pork. A few years later
when the prince regent was enlivening
brighton with his vagaries' the notorl,
Gus Sir John Lade made his celeDrateu
wager that he would carry Lord Chol-
lnondeley on his back twice around inc
Steine. AS Sir John was short ana
his opponent tall, much curiosity was
aroused. and many spectators, lneiud-
ing ladies', came out to see, but We're
all baked Of the spectacle by the
knight declining to bear the nobleman
except In the minimum Of clothing de-
clarlng that there was nothing In inc
conditions calling upon him to carry
extra weight. OF quite another klnd'
saws the Queen, was the wagering by
a gentleman that he would STAND al
day upon London bridge with tray
full of new sovereigns, but be unable
to sell them at penny piece and'
like Sir John Lade, he won his wager
Fancy dress balls are still faVorlte

there is nothing new, for, to quote but
one instance. in 1906 a curious wager
was laid between two gentlemen us 10
who should assume the most singular
character. The winner paraded with
his coat and waistcoat decorated with
hank notes Of different values, row
of five guinea notes and melted purse
Of gold adorned his hat, while on his
hat appeared piece - paper with tne
words "Johp Bull" The loser would
certainly appear to have been more

Frugal With His Guests.

As man who has recently sent his
son through a university and who
knows what student standards of liv-
ing are at the present time, Luther
Latin Mills tells this story by way OF
contrast:
"When I was a student at the Uni
yersltv Of~Nlichigan In 1860 | was an
active member of the Psi Epsilon FRA
ternlty. Two Psi Us from Yale were
making tour of the colleges through
out the United States for the purpose
of inspecting the various chapters, and
the boys at Ann Arbor appointed me
committee of one to entertain them
while they were with us. was to DO
the honors for the local chapter and do
them in such a way as to make an i'm
preston on the visiting brothers.
ut was an honor and at the same
time quite a responsibility for me, for
l was one of the younger boys. When
the day came l met the Yale men at
the train. showed them around the
campus, introduced them to all our
fellows took them to one or our meet
ings and finally saw them safely off on
the train late at night.
THE boys were satisfied with the
way had entertained our visitors and
declared that 1 had reflected honor on
the chapter.
"That night I made an entry In my
cashbook of all my expenses for the
day. have that old cashbook at home
now, and that day entry reads:
"'To maple sugar for Yale guests,
'"-Chicago RecOrd-Herald.

The Dead of the Glacier.

Lady Florence DiXie's appeal to all
who may be visiting Zermatt this sum-
mer will intensity interest in the
chance that the Zmutt glacier may
give up the long lost body Of her broth
er, Lord Francis Douglas. Since the
rope broke on the return from the first
ascent Of the MatterhOrn, just forty
years ago, and Mr.. Whymper and two
guides helplessly saw the fall Of Lord
Francis, two English companions and
the third guide, no trace Of Lord Fran
els but one sleeve has ever been found,
though the other bodies were at once
recovered. The portion of the glacier
which may have entombed him, how
ever, will reach the valley this year.
Chamonix has twice witnessed such
late recoveries as that now hoped for.
The remains Of three guides over
whelmed by an avalanche on Mont
Blanc In 1920 reappeared four miles
lower In 1861, and those Of Captain
Arkwright, an avalanche victim Of
1866, were similarly found In 1897

THE CRADLE OF TEARS.

There Is q basket cradle within the
door of one of the great institutions OF
New York before which constantly
recurring tragedy is being enacted. IL

In white, but with such look OF coy

And this cradle is the most useful

wear after year ii is the recipient or
more small wayfaring souls than any
other cradle in the history of the race.
In it the real children of sorrow are
placed, and over it more tears are shed
than If it were an open grave.
1t Is the place where annually l,2OO
foundlings are placed-the silent wit

thousand mothers have stolen shame
facedly in and, after looking hOpelessIy
about, have laid their helpless OH

For thirty-hve years, winter ana
summer, in the bitterest cold and the
most sitting heat, it has seen them
come-the poor, the rich, the humble
the proud, the beautiful, the homely-
and one by one they have laid their
children down and brooded over them,
wondering whether it were possible for
human love to make so great sacrl-
fee and yet not die.
Still the tragedy repeats itself, and
year after year and day after day the
unlocked door is opened and dethroned
virtue enters-the victim Of Ignorance
and passion and affection-and child

THE DIFFICULT TASK.
Combing the Particular Mans Hair
Bothcrs the Rarber.

Combing the Particular MINIS hhfF
Bothcrs the BARBER.
'Do you know, one Of the most dill
cult things In this business" said the
barber as he ran the comb through tho
hafrbrush, as In the matter OF combing
n customers hair? 1t is rather Singh
lar fact that you will find few BARRIERS
who have succeeded In solving the
problem of combing customers hair
lust as he wants 1t, no matter how
long the man may have been patron
of his chair. OF course there are few
exceptions to this rule. There are q
few men In the world who do not care
whether their hair Is combed at Oil.
With this class Of men fof course
II doesn't make much difference how
the barber combs the hair. But at least
ninety out of every hundred men who
patronize barber shops are very partic-
ular about the way you comb their
hair unless you have inspired them
with an extraordinary confidence. I'm
less. In fact, they have a better opin-
lon of the baIber's Judgment than they
have Of their own the barber Will miss
the mark when he comes to put the
finishing touches on the hair. The rea-
son for this is not altogether a matter
of vanity. There are a great many
men whose looks are completely
altered by a change in the way the
hair Is combed. Take the man. for m
stance. who Is In the habit Of parting
his hair on the side, and part 1t In the
middle. OF the man who Is In the habit
of combing his hair down and parting
II on one side-suppose you roach or
pompadour the hair-can you not see
what changes would follow In the gen.
eral appearance Of the man? This fact
has much to do with making the comb
ing Of mans hair a matter OF much
difficulty, ard do not exaggerate when
I say It Is one Of the BARRIERS hardest
tasks. New Orleans Times-Democrat.
