HAIR AND Boards.
They HIVE Played Important Part.
In the World'S History,

IN AhC WIZ
In centuries past the human hair
played TN important part in all judicial
proceedings. Those that were permit
ted 10 wear beard and hair had rights
that could not be claimed by the shorn
and shaved. When men made oath
they touched their beard and hair, and
women placed the finger tips OF the
right hand on their tresses.
Servants We're obliged TO have their
hair cut. and if freedman went into
slavery he had TO diyest himself Of his
firsute ado,nments. An adult adopted
by foster parents was obliged to have
his beard shaved, and the shaving OF
beard aud hair was n punishment in
h!cted or criminals. The Jurisprudence
of our ancestors deNlr with punishment
by skin anu hair" for small odenses
and by neck and hand" for greater
crimes
There has always been more or less
superstition about hair. Great strength
was implied by it, and wizards and
witches knew Of connections or hair by
when they poisoned enemies. Cats
hair WAS especially named in the care-

A man who had been sick said he

When heard this statement 1 asked.
How many did YOU count" lie was

them. Not u man could tell the num-

in ail seriousness lhat woman has
one more rib than Il man, because man
lost one in the fashioning of woman.
And. Go you know, this belief is COM

1t is an anatomical fact that man has
twelve pairs OF ribs and woman the

TWO on each side, are the free" ribs.
and i'll all probability Eve was made OF
ono OF those. y man could manage TO
struggle through life without his free

AN EMBARRASSED PASTOR

Last evening the Rev. L. Judson
Westfan. pastor Of Bethany Baptist
Church, was a much embarrassed
pastor.
Forty OF his members gave the good
man and his wife a fruit surprise.
-Four Of the flock called on him early
10 keep him in and later the rest
came along each bearing a bundle
under her arm.
Al the proper time the bundles were
produced and proved to be a jar OF
home canned peaches or preserves.
The Bethany pastor is noted for his
fondness for peaches. and knowing this
several OF the good Gamers in the
church arranged this surprise.
Mr.. Westfall declared he was doubly
embarrassed. He could not with good
grace invite them to come again. nor
could his wife very well return the
jars lest It seem an invitation to re-
peat the surprise or refill the jars
The members. however. enjoyed
hugely the predicament of the pastor
and his wife and were delighted at
the pleasure they gave them.
