growing less prehensile, his front
teeth are smaller, his lips are thinner

things should stop at the par
tial artificial division thus afforded;
there is every reason, on the contrary,
to believe my statement that some cum
ming exterior mechanism will presently
masticate and insalivate his dinner,
relieve his diminishing sallvary
glands and teeth, and at last altogeth-
er abolish them.

HOW THEY LOST THEIR HAIR.
The Three Drummers Were Good, but
No. 4 Was Their Peer.

GOOD,
No. 4 Was Their Peer.
By the chances of their employment
four drummerS, all old time friends,
met at the dinner table of the Dockery
hotel, in KirksvilIe, Mo, the other even
ing, says the Kansas City Star. After
cordial handshaking they sat down and
began discussing the markings of the
years. All Of them were becoming dis.
tinctly bald, but this was not the blight
ing work Of time. They were as sure Of
that as that the articles they sold were
superior to anything Of the sort on the
market. No l felt called upon to make
this clear. He said when lad he had
an unusually severe attack of the mea-
sizes, during which his hair had entirely
deserted his head. Later, however, it
gave an Indication Of coming back, and
he hoped soon to have full cover.
No. 2 said that while travelling in Cen
trail America many years ago he placed
a magnificent head of curly brown hair
at the mercy of a native barber to
shampoo and that soon after his hair
began dropping out. He thought the
heather had put some stuff in the bath
which destroyed the roots. No. 3's ac-
count was the most thrilling. His hair
had been burned off while assisting a
family to escape from Kansas prairie
fire. He had applied for a pension, but
the government, with its usual con-
servatism, had delayed the matter
pending investigation.
The three victims of youthful misfor-
tune paused meditatively a few mo-
ments, and then one looked up and adj
dressed No. 4:
'Now, Jim, it's up to you"
Jim was the baldest one Of the group.

READY FOR
HOT FIGHT
Tonight Will See Some
Good Bouts of
Boxing.

Tonight at the Opera House six
husky boxers will swap punches for
the edification of the local fight fans.
The welterweights, who are to pro-
vide the stellar bout, are in fine con-
dition for their battle and a hard fight
is looked for Huihui is conceded to
have a chance with Sullivan under
straight Queensberry rules and his
friends expect him TO reverse the pre-
vious decision.
There is much difference of opinion
regarding the respective merits Of Jack
McFadden and Young Nelson and the
two should put up a cyclonic scrap.
Both fully expect to win by the knock
out route this evening.
Abe Nelson and Kahaulelio will fight
six rounds to decide the local middle
weight championship. Kahaulelio is
the favorite but Nelson is a shifty
boxer and as strong as a ball and will
force Kahaulelio to set a lively pace
to retain his honors
Nelson and McFadden have to weigh
125 pounds at p. m. Sullivan and Hui
hui are required to make 145 pounds at
ringside.
1t is not known who the third party
in the ring will be but Fred. Kiley is
likely to act as master of ceremonies.
Larry Dee will chasten the gong. All
three goes should afford good sport
and everybody will get his moneys
worth.
Kahaulelio and Nelson go on first
and their place in the limelight will
then be taken by McFadden and Young
Nelson. The members of the press
have been looked after, for a wonder,
in the matter of seats, and everything
should go merry as marriage bell.
On form Sullivan should whip Hui
hui and will probably do SO, though the
lucky punch may once more upset
Young Nelson is in grand shape and
weighed 123 1-2 pounds yesterday. He
can give and take punch with the
