COUNTESS BECOMES A NURSE
Has Earned Living as Cab Driver and
BARRIERS Assistant in Paris Be-
fore Trying New Effort.

Paris-Countess de la Gueriviere,
who in 1907 appeared as the first wom-
an cab driver in the streets of Paris,
has since then twice changed her PRO
fession.'
After a brief success as a ''cabby,"
the countess, who at one time was
very wealthy, but is now forced to
earn a living, became BARRIERS as
sistant. She then opened a BARRIERS
shop on her own account, but this ven
tire did not last long. A few months
ago the third change took place and
the countess became a nurse in a Par
is hospital for dogs, cats and birds.

His Vow Came to an Anti-climax.

A much bearded man rambled into
barber shop and submitted to a shave,
a haircut, a shampoo, SINCE. a mas
sage and everything else the barber
could think of, at the same time listen
ing with keenest enjoyment to the
tonsorialist's remarks about all things
on earth and in the waters under ihe,
earth. So long before that he had fnE,!
gotten the gentlemanis name and
what Office he was running for the old
man had vowed never to be shaved or
shorn until So-and-So was elected.
When he at last awoke to realization
that nobody cared if he never shaved
he concluded to shave just to show 'eIn
that he didn't care whether they cared
or not.-Kansas City Star.
