GORDON IN THE WRONG PEW
Mississippi Senator's Experience Ii
Barber Shop.

Mississippi Senator's Experience IL
Barber Shop.
Colonel James Gordon, Mississippfs
new senator, has learned that there
are two barber shops In the senate
wing Of the capitol building at Wash
ington This information cost him
new silver dollar. The Mississippian
has long hair and a beard, and there
are times when 1t Is worth a dollar
to have a barber give him proper at
tention. In the main basement cor
ridor leading to the house wing there
is a large barber shop for the exclu-
sive use of senators. No charge is
made, for the BARRIERS are paid by the
government, being carried ON the rolls
as messengers or laborers. On the
floor below, in the subbasement, there
is a barber shop, patronized by capitol
employees, where the usual charges
are exacted for shaves, hair cuts, etc.
Senator Gordon went to the capitol
the other day looking for a barber
shop. He accosted a new policeman,
who was unaware of the fact that Mr..
Gordon was a senator. He directed
the senator to the shop used by the
employees. When Mr.. Gordon had
been properly trimmed up" he ten
dered the obsequious negro a silver
dollar. He thought he was in the
shop used by senators, and his dollar
was in the nature of a first call tip.
The barber offered him the change,
but with a courtly wave of his hand
Colonel Gordon indicated that he de-
sired nothing back.
Pm a SENATOR" he said.
els you al?" queried the startled
but doubtful barber.
Yes; may not look like a senator,
but l am one Just the same" replied
Colonel Gordon as he buttoned his
frOck coat and left the shop.
Later one of Senator GOrdon's
friends told him of his mistake The
senator said he had got what he went
after, and his friend added, yes, you
were in the right church, but the
wrong pew"

COMFORT FOR NEAR-oLD MAID

Woman at Her Best at Twenty eight,
Says a Chicago Matron.
Is an unmarried woman an "old
maid" at twenty-eight?
Decidedly not, according to Mrs.
Henry Jaffray of Chicago, who ad-
dressed the West Side Co-educational
club, 1858 Washington boulevard, the
other day.
"An unmarried woman of twenty
eight is an important factor in social
and business life" she said, land she
probably is better looking at that age
than at any other. At one period Of
orr civilization she might have been

GUINEA PIGS TO AID HEALTH.
Illinois Biological Laboratory viii Use
Animals In Milk Tests.


One room of the soon to be estab-

to be devoted to experiments on guinea
pigs to determine whether cows milk
contains tuberculosis bacilli. but it is
not probable the guinea pig industry
will begin at once, for the manufac-
ture OF hog cholera serum will have
right of way over the diagnosis of
milk.
But the ordinary and the guinea
pigs will receive injections when the
laboratory work gets in full swing,
