A LITTLE STUDY IN TIPS.
Young Men Going Counting the Bar
ber's Best Customer.

Young Men Going Counting the Bar.
ber's Best Customer.
More from young men before they
are married than after" said the COM
municative barber, talking about tips.
"and most from young men who are
going counting This doesn't mean.
you understand, that single young
men are more generous with tips than
married men are, but simply that
they come in oftener when single and
so leave more money
"A young unmarried man who is go
ing counting goes to see his girl two
or three times week, or very likely
oftener, and of course he must always
go spick and span and clean shaven
Now very probably this young man
shayes himself and does this common
ly after he gets home at the end of
the day before he goes cut in the eve
ming.
"But now suppose he should be de-
tanned at the store or the office so
that he wouldn't have time to shave
at home before going out, for it
wouldn't do for him to be late where
he is going. He knows how his work
is running and whether he is going to
be detained at that or not, and if he
finds he is going to be. why then, he
sneaks out in the course of the dag
when things let up little, time
enough to run in to the BARRIERS an1
get shaved before he goes home. Or
for that matter it may be that he is
going out with mis- girl that evening
and SO wouldn't have tried to shave
after he got home even if he got there
at his regular time.
so the young man who commonly
would shave himself may. when he is
going counting, run in to the BARRIERS
to get shaved two or three times a
week, and of course he leaves tip
every time, but after he's married he
doesn't come in so often. Not that
he takes .sny>less care Of aimss,f then,
is less careful about his appearance.
but then he is going to his own home,
where it is permitted to him to shave
at such hour as may be NEST conven-
lent to him.
"Of course whether single or mar
ried a man can't cut his cwn hair
and so the man married still comes
in regularly to get his hair cut. but
not nearly so often as before to get
shaved, and so it is from the young
unmarried man, and this when he is
going counting, that we get the mos
tips. New York Sun

COMPANY L MUSTERED our.

Centreyille Especially. - Company
L. First Infantry, Maryland National
Guard, Centreville, was mustered out
at its armory in the Opera House,
pursuant to special orders from mill
tary headquarters. Col. Charles d.
Gather, commander of the First
Regiment, and Sergt. j.. G. Marshall,
quarter master supply inspector, ar
rived and all military paraphernalia
has been collected and packed pre-
paratory to being sent to Baltimore.
Company L was first organized in
the fall OF 1899 by Capt. John e.
Wilson and Lieuts. Joseph M. Paryis
and Walton G. Orrell. AT that time
considerable interest was manifested
in it, and thus it grew steadily for
several years. Within the last few
years, however, public interest has
ceased, and in consequence the COM
pany has dwindled from IS to
mere handful of men. The armory
at this place was one of the finest
on the Shore. First Lieut.. James
H. Middleton was commander Of the
company.

THE POPULARITY OF BACON.

I11E FOFUlAAhIl VI BAUM.
Prof. Snyder, of the Minnesota Sta
ton, gives the following reasons why
bacon has become. so sHopular and de-
sirabie. In reference to tests made
ut the station, he says it was cut
IN thin slices and baked or broiled
In the oven until crisp and brown.
All the fat which was cooked out
was saved and eaten with bread
and other foods which made up the
daily fare. On an average about
ninety-four per cent. of the protein
and ninety-six per cent. of the fat
Of the ration containing bacon were
digested, and about eighty-eight per
cent of the energy was available.
Calculated values for bacon alons
showed over ninety per cent. protein
and A and IS pound digestible fat,
which is about two-thirds as much as
is found in butter.
Lean bacon" says the professor,
gestible fat as other meats, making
1t at the same time, and even at
a higher price per pound, cheaper
food than other meats. Bacon fat
is easily digestible, and when COM
bined with other foods it appears to
exert favorable mechanical action
upon digestion"
AS the value Of bacon becomes
more generally appreciated those
breeds which will produce the great
est proportion of this meat when
compared with whole weight of car
cass will become more popular. It
will then be a common thing to find
Tamworths and Yorkshirses on ev-
cry farm. especially outside the
corn belt" The Durocs are not
far behind these in bacon production.
though in some localities they par
take of the characteristics of the lard
hogs. For the benefit of those who
still wish to be loyal to the old breeds
1T may be said that feeding so as to
develop bone and muscle, that is feed
ing plentifully of food containing
abundant protein. like the different
legumas, mixed wheat bran and
shorts, tankage, ETC., will tend
to develop a growthy animal
with long and deep body
that will make a fine qualify
of bacon. If this method of feeding
is carried on for a few years and a
wise selection of breeding animals
be made, it will not be difficult
matter to partly eliminate the char
acteristics of breed whose staple
diet has been corn, and in place Of
the lard hog we shall find the one
producing bacon.

LAKE TAHoE's ANTICS.
Mysterious Rise and Fall Of Body
Of Water on Crest OF Sieyras.

Mysterious Rise and Fall Of a Body
Of Water on Crest OF Sieyras.
Lake Tahoe, that mysterious jewel
on the crest of the Sierras, is again
attracting attention because of its
strange antics. John K. Tanner, who
has spent years on the borders of the
lake, and who owns timber land near
there, arrived in Reno recently with
the statement that the lake has fallen
nearly six feet within the month. Tan
ner is not able to give an explana-
ton for this stronge condition.
Il have spent ten years around Lake
Tahoe said Tanner recently, but
I have never seen it fall SO rapidly
or to such an extent as in the last
four weeks. Before Christmas tins
we first noticed the waters were re-
ceding. 1t was gradual at first, but
within the last week it seemed as If
the lake had found another outlet and
that it would empty itself. SO rapid
was the fall.
1.-TWO years ago, instead Of falling,
the lake, without any apparent cause.
began to rise, and at one time resi-
dents of Truckee were organizing to
prevent, if possible, the destruction
of their town in the event that the
dam at the msuth of the lake gave
way Just when the danger seemed
greatest the waters began to recede."
In places the lake bottom never has
been found The claim has often
been made that it has a subterranean
outlet which contracts and expands.
this condition being brought about by
volcanic action. The lake itself is
claimed by some scientists to be the
crater of an extinct volcano.
In the mythology of the Washoe
Indians it is related that the lake was
emptied by some great force, the wa
tiers falling upon the valleys on the
east side of the mountains and drown
ing many people. The matter has
been called to the attention of Pref.
Church. of the University of Nevada,
who may visit the lake to study the
phenomenon.-Reno correspo 'eace

POULTRY NOTES.

It is not always the fat hen that
becomes broody.
The scratching hen gives her chicks
much exercise.
Pullets Matched now will come in
for late summer layers.
Give the whole wheat to the hen
and soft feed to the chicks.
Drive the young under shelter
during sudden showers of rain.
Try a camphor bali for lice Place
one in each nest as you set the hen.
Whole corn, grit and fresh water
are the best fare for the sitting hen.
The fact that the hen is laying is
no sign that she wants to leave her
young.
Keep food constantly before the
sitting hen so she can help herself
at will.
Thirteen eggs in early spring and
fifteen during late spring and summer
are large enough sittings.
Whitewash the interior Of your
coops and sprinkle carbolated lime on
the floor. This disinfection drives
away lice.
A few raw eggs mixed with the food
about once a week will check any ten
dency to looseness of the bowels.
Covered runs are protection from
hawks, cats or dogs. They should be
moved to fresh plots of grass each
week
Brahmas and CocAins are good
hatchers, but their clumsiness breaks
a good many eggs and kills quite a
number of chicks.
Bowel trouble that carries on many
chicks when one or two weeks old
may be often corrected by taking
away their drinking water and CIV
ing scaled milk instead
Scatter the floor of the pen vito
straw cut in lengths not over an inch
so that the hen can teach her young
how to exercise for the grain.
