Small BOY

Ed Davis Slashed Willie Hirsch
With a Knife and Inflicted
Painful Injuries

The case of City VS.. Ed Davis
charged with assault and battery or
Willie Hirsch was heard in the police
court this morning. Judge Paul b
Johnson appeared for the prosecution
The Davis boy had no attorney.
From the statements made by the
different witnesses, it appears that
late Saturday afternoon young Davis
was playing box ball in the alley on
East Pine street, and that he told
Hirsch to get out of his way and very
soon they were mixed up in a figh,
when the manager put both of the
lads out of the house. Another fight
occurred, in which it appeared that
Davis was the aggressor. Davis hit
Hirsch with a board that he had
secured and finally Hirsch secured
the board, but it was not shown that
he used it, and he finally dropped it.
1t was stated that Davis secured his
knife and asked Hirsch if he was salts
fed. None of the witnesses could tell
what Hirsch's reply was, but they
went together again and Davis stab
bed the other boy three times in the
back inflicting slight wounds, as the
knife had a short blade.
Justice Davis fined the Davis boy
$40 and sentenced him to five days
in JAIL. @

HEARTS, NOT FACES.

The people who win their way into
the inmost recesses of others hearts
are not usually the most brilliant and
gifted. but those who have sympathy,
patience, self-forgetfulness, and thar
indefinable faculty of eliciting the bet
er naures of others. Most of us Know
of persons who have appealed to ms in
this way.
We have many friends who are more
beautiful and whose companionship we
enjoy better than that of the PLAIN
faced man or woman who never make
a witty or profound remark, but whose
makes up for every other deficiency.
And if it came to a time of real stress,
when we felt that we needed the sup
port of real friendship, we should
choose. above all, to go to this plain
faced man or woman certain that we
should find intelligent sympathy,
charita BILE construction of our position
and difficulties, and a readiness to
assist us beyond what we ought TO
take.
If YOU could look into human hearts,
Won would be surprised at the faces
thew enshine there. because beauty
of spirit is more than beauty of face
or form. and remarkable intellectual
Qualities are not. to be compared with
unaffected human goodness and SYM
pathy.

Unconscious Influence.

Allittle boy, who had been somewhat
spoiled at home, began to attend kim
dergarten school. After a few days his
mother noted with pleasure a change in
his manners, an increasing gentleness in
speech and behavior. She quietly re-
marked one day.:
Miss Brown has been teaching you
politeness, l see"
why, mother" said the child. "she
never says a word about politeness."
"She doesn't? I'm surprised
mo, she doesn't say a word. She
Just walks around. But we feel as polite
AS anything"
One of the most striking peculiarities
of personal influence is that it is often
unconscious. Not when you are trying
to make a good impression. to set
good example, to say a word that should
be said in the best way and to fit the
audience, are you most successful in ac-
complishing your purpose. The infiu-
ence that emanates from you when you
are simply going about your work with
out a thought beyond the task of the
hour, when you are off guard and are
merely showing your inner life by out
ward acts, as automatically as the heart
sends the blood to the head, hands and
feet, is the influence that helps or hurts
in your home, classroom or business Of

TREATMENT OF THE HAIR.

In washing the hair, avoid strong
soaps, alkalis such as soda and ammo
MIA hair tonics of which you are not
sure, and too much hot water. These
all dry up natural oil and make the hair
harsh, dry and given to falling.
Depend on regular brushing of the
hair rather than on tonics. Ten minutes
stiff brushing twice a day will do Won
ders for thinning hair.
Keep the hair absolutely clean. This
may be assisted by a dry shampoo, if a
wet one cannot be given frequently.
For dry shampoo powder the hair
and scalp well and brush until every
particle of powder is gone.
Hair should always be thoroughly
dried, as the mingling of water with
natural oil causes fermentation, which
means dandruff and falling locks.
Give the hair plenty Of light and air,
but do not expose it TO the hot rays of
the sun for long at time. 1t beaches
the hair and often blisters the scalp,
drying up the natural oil.
So long as the scalp moves freely over
the skull there is hope for the bald
head
Be particular not to use the brushes
and combs of another, and see that you
do not use your own when in an unSan-
itary condition. One reason for the
badness of men is due to their careless
ness in this respect.
Do not burn your hair, twist it into
torruous knots, strain it back from the
temples or wear it always in the same
coil.
