AND FALLING HAIR

To allay itching and irritation Of the

c1al treatment is most effective, agree
able and economical. On retiring,

WHERE MESH BAGS ARE MADE
A Lon Established Industry Of the
RaIearic IsIands-Women Do
Work.

Barcelona.-The manufacture of sill.
yer and gold mesh bags and purses
is a long established industry peculiar
to the Balearic islands, and is cen
tered in the islands of Majorca and
Minorca.
Up to a few years ago the industry
was confined to small establishments
in the country towns, where women
were engaged in weaving the mesh at
wages ranging from eighteen to TWEEN
ty-seven cents a day, according to the
quantity Of mesh made. Keen COM
petition, however, has led to the cree
ton of factories, and the industry has
been considerably benefited. Former.
ly the gold and silver wire, as well
as the mountings, were mostly import
ed from France, but at present the
entire process of manufacture is car
ried on In the islands.
There are twelve factories of note
In the islands of Majorco and Minorca,
which not only supply nearly the home
demand but also export articles to
France and other European countries
and to some extent to America, Africa
and Asia. The annual value of the
output is officially estimated at $780,
900. The output consists Of over 200
different styles, silver bags and purses
selling at SO cents to $50, and the gold
articles at So to II cents a gram.
Owing to the prosperous state of the
industry the manufacture of related
articles, such as chains, etc, has been
attempted.

HOW MAUREL LEARNED TO ACT
Friend Of Great B~arrytone Told Him
Of His Shortening, to Very
Good Effect.

London.-The secret Of Chaliapine
1.-THE Russian singer who has been SO
successful in London) seems to be the
same as that Of Maurel, one of the
first Of the great modern operatio
barrytones.
Maurel began as a star singer in the
old style. One day when he was prac-
ticing in his hotel he received a visit
from a painter who lived in a stdio at
the top Of the hotel. The painter
came to say how much he had enjoyed
the singing Of the great barrytone,
Your voice enters my room like a
ray Of sunshine. l have bought a seat
for tomorrow to hear You in William
Tell"
Maurel did not see the painter again
for some time and when he met him
in the street some weeks afterward
he asked him If he had been to will
liam Tell" The painter seemed very
cold about 1t. He complained that
Maurel had not given the impression
Of the character Of the fearless hunt
err" Maurel took this to heart and
from that time studied the art of act
ing until it was said of him that he
was IAN artist who could act and paint
with his voice"
Verdi said of Maurel, after the first
performance Of "Otello," when he
sings his best he makes one forget he
is singing" 1t seems to be the same
with Chapiapine.

Utes when they sold their lands to

MANNED BY BUFFALO
Elephant Hunters Experience In
the Belgian Congo.
shoots Animal When II Appeared In
Range and Follows Quarry Into
Jungle Only to Be Set Upon
and Nearly Killed.

London.-A terrible experience with
a buffalo recently befell a well-known
elephant hunter in the Belgian Congo.
He was after elephants when the ami
NAL appeared within range, and, con-
trary to his usual custom, the hunter
fired. The shot took effect and the
buffalo disappeared into thee jungle,
The hunter, who is a dead-shot, and
expected to find his quarry dead, fol
lowed. Suddenly without the slight
est warning, the wounded beast
charged, believing with rage and pain,
from behind some bushes SO close at
hand that the hunter had no time to
raise his rifle and fire.
Throwing aside the rifle, he sprang
into the air and clutched at a branch
of a tree beneath which he was stand
Ing, and by drawing up his legs just
managed to escape the buffalo's horns.
But worse IA to come. The buffalo
turned and surveyed it's foe hanging
helplessly overhead and Immediately
bounded into the az, it's terrible horns
searching madly fe2 its victim.
The unfortunate l%4an could climb no
higher, for the tree was a small one,
and one of the hor4.s caught him on
the thigh, ripping it open like a knife.
Again and again the beast sprang at
the man, and again and again the re-
lentless horns tore at his thigh and
leg.
With wonderful strength and cour-
age the hunter bore about fifteen ag-
onizing moments of this torture, until
at last the bullet took effect and the
animal dropped dead on the ground

Caused Her Little Inconvenience

A New York letter tells of a west
ern girl unused to the insidious cock
tail, who was dining in a Broadway
lobster palace. The dinner apparently
was given in her honor. She gulped
down her cocktail manfully but with a
wry face. During the dinner her
hostess noticed that her cheeks were
flushed, that her eyes sparkled and
her face beamed. The hostess felt a
little concerned about her, but why, it
was hard to say, as she was not in
the chicken class. Perhaps it was be-
of the loudness of her laugh and
conversation. Anyway, the hostess
leaned across the table to whisper to
her, "Why, Kate, do you feel that
cocktail?" ooh, yes" was the west
erner's reply, with beaming face, 81

"All the trains are on time. Some

He stared for a moment at the
board, then at the old negro. Slow
ly his face relaxed into a broad grin.
The bulletin read:
