FOR REALISM.
Robert Louis Stevenson's Injunction to
a Small Nephew at Play.

Robert Louis Stevenson's Injunction &C
Small Nephew at Play.
A story about Robert Louis Steven
son not generally known, according &c
the New York Sun. is told by Mrs
Stevenson's grandson. Austin Strong.
When Mr.. Strong was little chap
Mr.. Stevenson liked to sit propped uI
in bed to watch him at play in the
mex, room. And often it happened
that The bigger boy of the two would
make suggestions for the make be-
lieve games and insist that they be car:
RED out too.
One day Austin had. arranged some
chairs in a row, playing that they
were ships. and he. standing on the
front, was the captain. For q lonG
time he proudly walked the deck OF
his vessel, encountered pirates and
weathered all kinds Of storms until be
selt the floor positively heave under
his feet
MI. Stevenson looked on in perfect
silence, but complete absorption. nc
doubt playing the whole thing much
the harder of the two. Finally Austin
got tired Of his vessel. climbed of his
chair and began walking across the
room to some object which had at
tracted his interest.
This was too much for his uncle
Still deep in the game, Mr.. Stevenson
rose in his sickbed and shouted ex
citedly at the recalcitram sea captain:

False Hair.

False hair was first regularly worn
In England by Queen Elizabeth, who
had upward Of fifty wigs Of different
kinds for her private use. After her
death a few women adopted the
French fashion Of wearing wigs, but it
was not until the restoration that
wigs, or, more correctly speaking, peri
wigs, came to be extensively worn by
the sterner sex These were intro
duced In the court Of Louis XIV,
where natural head Of hair was not
considered sufficiently luxuriant FOL
the artificial tastes Of the times. The
term ''periwig'' is a corruption OF the
French perruque. Wigs were original
" adopted not as remedy for bald,
ness, but in the interest Of personal
cleanliness. The laws Of ancient Egypt
compelled all males to shave the head
and beard. This explains why turbans
were not worn by the Egyptians, the
bushy artificial hair being regarded as
sufficient protection against the heal
Of the sun. The Romans, on the con
uary, wore wigs because they were
naturally bald.-St. Louis Republic.

Won In Spite Of His Lawyer.

a once we'll known attorney used to
tell a good story on himself. He had
been retained to defend counterfeiter
and advised him to plead guilty. His
client did so, and as there was in the
mind Of the court a fixed idea that If a
prisoner pleads guilty he does so be-
cause be has no attorney the Judge
asked him why he made that plea.
Because my lawyer told me to-"
Ibid he give you any reason for 1t 2
'Yes. He told me I would have no
show before this Judge"
The court fared up and ordered q
plea Of not guilty to be entered, and
the counterfeiter was acquitted.

CHINA TO KEEP oLO CUSTOM.
Officials Refuse to Countenance the
Spread Of Western Ideas.

Shanghai correspondent Of Ger.
man paper writes: The custom
of arranging matrimonial contracts
through agents or matchmakers has
been practiced in China for ages. The
business receives support from all
classes, for although the high-caste
men in some instance select their
first wives themselves the additional
wives are all secured through the
agents.
This being so, It was only natural
that recently distributed proclama-
ton, written by an unknown person
urging the women to rebel against the
old established custom should have
created more than a little excitement
The officials ordered he immediate
destruction Of the handblls on which
the revolutionary scrccd was printed
and the arrest Of those Who took part
In their distribution.
THE empress dowagcr directs that
further efforts in that direction should
be punished severely, aud We know
what that means. She said that from
what she had heard the French mar
riages were for the most part happy
and that these were usually arranged
by the parents

CLOSING LAWS TO Be ENFORCED.

As result of the action of Charles
Olson, proprietor of the Virginia Buffet
on North Eighth street, in allowing two
young men and young lady of the city
to remain in the wine room, run in con
nection with his saloon, until after four
O'Clock last Sunday morning, the move
ment that has been agitated here for
some time looking TO the closing up of
wine rooms run in connection with sa-
looms, and for an earlier closing hour for
the 'dispensaries of liquid joy has re
ceived added force.
The three young people who were par
ties to the incident mentioned reside in
the city. On last Saturday evening
they went out together and after spend
ing some time about the streets entered
the wine room of the saloon mentioned
at about 1870 o'clock. Shortly after
four in the morning they left the place
and were intercepted by members of lAe
police force at the door. The boys were
arrested and taken to Jail and the young
lady was sent to her home. While this
is the latest and most fragrant incident
of this kind that has occurred it is re-
ported not to be- by any means, the only
incident of this character occurring with
in the city, which has become known.
Mayor Groffman and others of the
citys officials have taken the matter up
and are causing a thorough investiga-
ton to be made. 1t is probable that the
information gained will be placed before
the council at its meeting next Monday
evening and it is reported that an effort
will be made to have Olsons license re-
voked. 1t is time that the wine rooms
run in connection with saloons in the
city be closed and the opportunity is
present now. 1t is hoped it will be act
ed on.

MORE WORK FOR THE LAWYER.
Legal Light Explains Why He Had
Doubled His Fee.

Five years ago certain man made
a will. Last week he made another
one. The same lawyer drew up both
documents. For writing the second
will the lawyer charged twice as
much as for writing the first one.
why this difference?" asked tho
client Have you attained such promi-
nence in rhe legal profession in the
las. five years that you are justified in
doubling your fees?'
Not at all" said the lawyer. There
was twice as much work on this will
as on your OLD one. You see, at that
time you were a married man and
your will was short, for with the eX-
ception of a few minor bequests every
thing was left to your wife. Changes
in your domestic relations have made
another viii necessary. You are now
a bachelor or a bachelors equivalent,
childless widower. 1t is much hard
er to write a will for man of that
type than for a married man. The
man with family usually gives away
everything he possesses in three or
four clauses, but the bachelor divides
his property among so many relatives,
friends and dependents and consumes
so much time in doing it that the
lawyer is justified III charging him
double the usual fee"
