soon revealed that II had three sep

How separate and distinct from
this uttering center the brain place

lady patient of mine, who was aston

could not read a word in anything.

thought something must be wrong
with her eyes, but she saw every

her speech carefully, and found that
she could hear every word addressed
to her and could talk remarkably
well. Her reading brain center. how
ever, had been destroyed In the

that place. and she forthwith became

1t is stated that during Mr.. Schue-
bels's recent trip to the east he was
in Washington on June 1, and was in
conference with Senator Bourne for
several hours.
1t was intended to keep the matter
secret for awhile, but the story
leaked out. 1t is said that Senator
Bourne told Schuebel there would be
no trouble over his appointment,
provided he got Senator Fulton's en-
|dorsement. Whether he has that or
not is not known, but II is known
that last Saturday, in company with
Judge Thomas A. Mcbride, Schuebel
went to Astoria and held a confer
ence with Senator Fulton.
1t is well known that w. c. Bris-
tol is scheduled to retire. Senator
Fulton is uncompromisingly hostile
steward him. There has been some
talk that Bourne would espouse
Bristol's cause, but these late events
seem to confute that assumption.
The appointment OF Schuebel is
one of several political moves that
are to be made by the new coalition
OF Bourne and Fulton. The fat Of

SHAVING ON TRAINS.
Not a Difficult Task, Says a Man whs
Has Tried 1t.

Not a Difficult Task, Says a Man Who
Has Tried II.
There was hurrah when some of
the railroads started barber shops on
their fast trains," said a travelling man.
1.-The newspapers said that at last trav-
elers could have the luxury of a shave
whenever necessary and that no longer
would we see unkempt men leaving the
trains at the end of a long run.
Nov, the barber shops on the fast
trains are undoubtedly a blessing to
men who are not able to shave them
selves, but for my part l consider them
far more dangerous than the simple
operation of shaving yourself, even
when going at the rate of sixty miles
an hour.
81 always shave myself, and do not
use safety razor, yet l would sooner
scrape my chin with an unprotected
blade while the train is going sixty or
seventy miles an hour than let a bar
Der on the same train lean over me
with sharp razor and perform the op-
Grafton.
1.-THE reason for this is that when one
razor moves with you If there should
be sudden jar or jolt. If you fall to-
ward the razor the razor falls away
from you, as your arm is naturally out
stretched to prevent you from striking
a wall
But suppose the barber is leaning
over you as you sit in chair and a
sudden lurching of the train throws
him against the chair. What chance
from the sharp blade coming In your
direction?
81 have shaved myself dozens Of
times on fast trains and slow trains,
and have never cut myself once. Yet
a number of my acquaintance who
have patronized the train barber shops
have been compelled to wear court
plaster during the remainder of the
trip.
up to a year OF so ago l never
shaved myself on a train, and l never
saw any one else doing it. Then per-
haps because of the advent of safety
razors it became a comparatively ia
miliar sight to see man shaving him
self in the smoking room of the Pull
man.
81 have had travelling men seeing me
shave for the first time express their
surprise that l did not cut myself
owing to the lurching of the train, and
when l have explained to them how
easily one can shave on a train they
have become instant converts to the
practice. Like all simple things one
does not realize how simple it is until
one has tried it.
Another thing, it is infinitely
smoother shaving when the train is GO
ing fast than when making only TWEEN
ty-f1ve or thirty miles an hour. The
curves and the jolts seem more severe
on a slow train. The steady motion of
swiftly moving train is more con-
ducive to security and comfort than
any slow train. "-Washington Post
