ceiving less than five cents for shaving, and only Il cents for haircuts, the barber cannot be expected to have much for the adornmeit of his shop.
 Furthermore, MT Holder explains that American-made barber supplies are very high, and with the small profit in the business barbers must use largely sup plies made in Germany.
 The chairs in use, of wood with small wooden arms and cane seats," Mr. Holder writes, -"are like ordinary chairs, except that they have a small head rest; they cannot, of course, be raised or lowered and no foot rest is provided These, as well as the brushes, raZors, toilet articles, etc, are made in Germany, though occa- sionally English brushes and French ra-

Genius and Cats

1 After so long a time certain letters
 written to Jane Welsh Carlyle have been published to show that occasional l tempestuous scenes in the Carlyle
 household owed their origin to a Per
 sian cat, which was a fayorite of old
 Sartor Resartus. says the Washington | Post
 This will be rich picl,ings in the lodes
 of Carlyliana, which have given much
 good ore in the past. Owing to a dearth of letters, of a possible decrease
 in creative historical imagination, the
 output has fallen off appreciably l It is by no means certain, however, that the cat was the root of offending. About the only creature that could live on passable terms with a genius Is d I cat unless that ever loyal and trustful animal, the dog, be considered more noble exception. One genius in fam fly is usually more than enough, as the private records of marital discord go
 far to prove For those who care for
 such matters, it will be recalled that the elder Lytton is said to have passed the plates to his wife at the breakfast table, and that she was no amateur at skillfully returning them in the same manner-that is to say, by the aerial route. Mrs. Charles Dickens confded
 to the world that doubtless it must have geniuses, but that 1t was hard to
 have to live with them. And much more from other veracious sources to
 the same end
 The inner lives of the Carlyles have been much discussed The letters of Jane Welsh bear every evidence of hay ing been written to her future husband, and at the same time written at poster ity. Which Is neither objectionable nor immoral, since they made good reading and hurt no one particularly. She was a peculiarly charming woman from the larger view, and must have known 1t; most of 'em do. Undoubtedly she weighed a personal preference for the brilliant but cratic, young minister, Irving, against the greater promise of the coming sage of Chelsea. She made her choice. And it seams reasonably certain, whatever her own impetuous moods that she paid the price. If she at times tipped the balance of uncon ventional vivacity, it may be accepted as a suitable foil to an overtendency on the part of her husband to hunt trou- ble. There are people living now who might never have had to think If Thomas has been a quiet domestic man, interested in his wife's gown as much as he was in England's corn laws and other like frivolities
 A word of caution, however, is due l those who are about ready to become unhappy because the Carlyles were | Genius has its privileges as well as it's penalties. Before the average grumpy husband kicks the cat. it's up to him l

zors and toilet articles are seen in the best shops.
 With the almost universal adoption of the safety razor German barbers soon found that their receipts were greatly re- duced; and in order to pay expenses they were compelled to cater to women as well as to men and to do shampooing and hairdressing for the former. Nearly all shops are now equipped to do this work and depend upon it for large part of their business. As hot water is rarely found in buildings in Cologne, barbers in stall a special apparatus for shampoong. It consists of a tank heated by gas, spir- it's or electricity, from which hot water runs by gravity, and a basin which can be emptied."

 O securing fund of S1,000,0O to be used as an inducement for locating in Birmingham the Methodist univer- sity. This university is ultimately to have a value of at least s5,00O,00O and it is the intention of Chairman Paschal G. Shook of the central committee, and his co-workers to secure the money needed in whirlwind fashion. The To- eating commission of the church meets in Birmingham on July b to make its decision and Birmingham wants to have in hand all it has to offer
 It has been pointed out many times that the coming of such a university to Birmingham would mean more than any one thing possibly could. Today the pastors of Birmingham will tell their congregations of the good that would result from the university. The securing of it is not denominational affair. The Methodist church, of course, will have control of the institution, but the school itself will be conducted along nonsectarian lines. and it is to the community's interest to secure it.
 The campaign for funds is to be city wide. There are 12 districts and each district has several teams, which will work every day. It Is not believed the canyassing committees will meet with many refusals to contribute towards the school for 1t will be money well invested
