to my room. They refuse to have any
thing TO do with one until he is in the

their tools and the operation is begun
in earnest. l wrenched my right arm
in trying to shake hands with two that
had struck a lead in the small of my
back and were calling to their compan-
ions to join in the harvest. If they had
had me down 1 firmly believe they
would have carried me away from the
building and would have abandoned
me in some out-ofthe-way place after
they had pumped me dry. An idea
prompted me to fall on the floor on my
back, and in carrying out the sugges-
ton l cOllided with a shoe that l had
left lying in the center of the room,
and the heel got me squarely in the

it was he. And then she screamed.
She was Mortified. What happened to
HMM an accident, or what? The
judge did not attempt to explain right
there, but took his wife by the arm
and escorted her toward the house. AS
they walked into the yard the young
daughter came running out of the
house. When she saw the smooth
faced man she paused to await an in
PRODUCTION. When the judge ran to
take her in his arms she drew away
from him and told him that he was not
her papa; that her father had pretty
whiskers. Finally the child was con-
WINGED, and then she broke into tears,
and it was weeks before she was recon
ciled to the new facial arrangements.
1T took me long while to live it
down. the judge said, telling the story
to some of his Rock Island friends,
but, tell you, no one is going to put
me in the old mems class until age gets
me there. The whiskers have gone
forever

tive to them as is the debUtante to her
hirsute adornment The children of
Mankato, all of whom are fond of the
judge, could recognize him for blocks
by his whiskers. At first the judges
family did not take kindly to his COW
ering his face with such a growth but
once the hairy frame became a fixture
they came to believe that the judge
was a better looking man with the
whiskers than without
One day the judge was riding on a
railroad train and he overheard two
passengers discussing old people. They
talked of about everybody in the coach,
and finally landed on the Mankato bar
rister. One asked the other how old
he supposed the judge was. The reply
was that he must be at least so. The
Judge Immediately walked to the mir
ror and looked himself over. The re-
mark preyed on his mind, for the fact
is that the judge has a long road to
travel before he reaches his three
score. He blamed it on the whiskers.
When he reached his destination he
headed for barber shop, and off came
the lilacs. The change was more pro-
nounced than he expected it to be, but
he satisfied himself that he had more
the appearance of youth than before.
The following Sunday he was due
home.
His home is a considerable distance
from the railroad station, and he took
a cab. AS he alighted from the con-
veyance in front OF his house he no
ticed two ladies walking towards him,
one of whom he recognized as his wife.
She and the other lady were returning
from church services. Mrs. Smith
waved a salute to the man she saw
leave the cab. When she did so his
back was turned towards her. AS he
faced in her direction, she stopped
short She had made a terrible mis-
take. The man was not her husband,
but some one VINO was going to an
other house. The cab moved away,
and the man stood waiting for the
coming of the two ladies.
Mrs. Smith was within few feet of
the judge before she convinced herself
