1 vii8 bora with n heud of Uery red
hair. Ah a kid 1 remember people
looking at It as they would at a burn
ing barn, making all kinds of allusions
to my bnlr and countless Jokes, ninny
of them very poor and In bad taste
and nil obnoxious to mc
When 1 grew old enoucb to bnvo n
sweetheart I was obliged to go with
out one, all on account of tho growth
on my bead. I kept It cut vory short,
but without effect Jnst as soon as 1
camo In contact with man, woman tot
child I saw at onco that my hair was
against me. Ouo thing I would not do-
refused nil barbers who suggested
my permitting them to dyo It On en
tcrlng their shops I would say, "Halt
rut nn tvn Wlionovor nttnr hla tift.
tlce, a barber offered to gtvo my hair a
different color I glared at him and told
him that If ho repeated tho offer he
must fight 1 thrashed so many people
for rcfcrcnco to my blemish that I bo
camo an expert boxer.
Hoping that tho peoplo of tho west
wcro mora conslderato than thoso of
tho cast. I went to Denver. Tho first
saluto I received there was: "Hello,
carrot topi Y' goln' to not tho timber
on tho mountings aflro?" I had got
tired of thrashing peoplo nnd turned
away without a word'. I Bought em
ployment In a largo manufacturing
concern, on entering tho olllco my eyes
lighted on a gentleman sitting at a
desk who had red hair, for all the
world as red as mlno. Ho looked up,
and in an Instant bis gazo was fixed on
my top.
Ho aroso from his chair and, ad
vanclng to tho offlco rail, grasped my
hand in a vlsellko grip.
"My dear sir," ho said warmly and
with a respectful mien I hud never be
fore been favored with, "what can 1
do for you?"
"I'm decking employment"
"You shall havo it right hero. What
can you do?"
"Nothing. I must learn. But I'm
willing to work without pay till-1 do."
! "You'll not work without pay here.
Judging from your appearance, you
are well bred and educated. A man ol
your condition can't get on with less
than a hundred dollars a month. I'll
give you that and put you in our best
department Mr. Stamper!" ho called.
, Au cmployeo advanced, and I notlc
cd he, too, had a red head. Ho was
Instructed to put mo to work and on
tho payroll ht tho samo time. As 1
passed through tho works I noticed
lovcry man had a ired head, but none
'so red as mlno nnd tho manneer'a.
Ours was tho samo huo exactly.
, "You'll be shoved up ahead of ua
all," said the inah who bad taken me
in charge.
"Why so?" I asked.
"You'ro tho only man hero who baa
ns red hair as tho prcsldont'
Tho words proved true. I waa Jump'
cd from ono grado to another bo fast
that I barely had timo ,to learn the
dutlco In each. And every timo
Jumped my salary jumped too.
This was not all. Mr. Flynn, the
president and principal owner, asked
mc ono dny to como to bis houso to
dinner. I went, of course, nnd wna
Introduced to his family. Every one
of his children had red hair of various
shades. Ills oldest daughter, Emily
thad veritable Titian locks. For the
Ilrst time In my llfo I felt easy in
social company. For tho first timo not
a person about mo looked at my bead,
much less referred to it Miss Emily
Flynn was very gracious to mo and
was tho first young woman who bad
over thus treated mo bo. I wob happy
an a clam at high' tide. After dinner
she led mo into n scparato parlor, and
I spent tho hours thero chatting with
her. vThey wcro thus far tho bnpplest
hours r-of my llfo. I left her with
wildly beating heart
i To mako a long story short, Miss
Flynn encouraged mo nnd I encouraged
Mlsfs Flynn. Ono day sho told me I
might go to her father and ask for
her. I did bo and was accented for
ran-ln-law with great gusto. "Go back
to Em," bo said, "and toU her you
havo my hearty consent, and remalu
to dinner."
I Bpont tho afternoon with Emily
and d nod with tho family. Alter ain
nor Mr. Flynn said to me:
"You have shown wonderful re
strnlnt In not nsking why I havo wcl
corned you Into ray business and Into
my family. The time baa como for
mo to enlighten you.
"Years ago I camo to this country
from Ireland without a cent and
worked nt any Job I could get in
great city. Ono day I was. arrested
accused of stealing frpin a Jew. Ho
hnd told tho pollco that a red headed
Irishman had robbed him. I was stood
in lino with sovornl othor men, and
this Jow picked mo out as the man
who had robbed him. I was tried, and
tho evidence wns strong against mo,
I was about to be convicted when
'red headed man strolled in among tho
spectators. My attorney, following
'suggestion given by tho man's red
hair, called for him and placed him
bcshlo mo. Then ho sent for the .low
and when bo camo into court asked
him which of tho two had robbed him,
The Jow couldn't tell. Ho had simply
Identified me because tho man who
had robbed him had a red head. Tho
Jury acquitted mo at onco.
"'Uou mess rod iicnueu menr I ex
claimed. 'From this day thoy arc all
my bosom friends.'
"And It hns always been my wish
to bnvo a red headed son-in-law and
bo the progenitor of generations of
red beaded descendant."
A Buttered Book. ,
How tho Itev. Mi Johnston, a 8cot
tlsb minister and tho author of nu
merous books, succeeded In getting
one of his works reviewed by Alex
nndcr Russcl. tho distinguished editor
of tho Scotsman, Is told by tho wrltct
of "Famous Editors."
A member of Mr. Johnston's congre
gation was an old and valued servant
in Mr. ItUBsel's family. When tho
preacher published his new book ho
asked this member to bring it under
tho notice of her master, with tho ro
quest. to revlow it In tho columns of
tho Scotsman. Glad to bo of servlco
to her master, tho good woman lost
no timo in making her wish known to
tho celebrated editor and next morn
ing placed "Tho Gospel Itoll' bcsldo
his breakfast cup. .,
When nt breakfast Mr. xtusscl took
up tho book and remarked, with a
merry twinkle In hla eye, "Helen, this
is nn nwful dry roll which you havo
given mo this morning."
"PcrhapB it is, sir," tho Borvant
quickly replied, "but you can butter
it weel on both sides."
Next morning an excellent sovlow
appeared.
Conkllng and Thurman.
Senator Itoscoo Conkllng was onco
addressing tho sennto In an impassion'
cd manner and seemed to direct his
rcmnrks to Senntor Thurman. At
length the latter got irritated.
"Does tho senator from Now York,"
ho ronred, "expect mo to answer him
overy timo ho turns to mo?"
For a moment Mr. Conkllng hesitat
ed, and everybody expected a tcrrlllc
explosion. Then, with nn air of ex
qulslto courtesy, ho replied:
"Whon I spenk of the law I turn to
tho senator from Ohio as tho Mussul
man turns toward Mecca. I turn to
htm ns I do to tho English common
law as tho world's most copious foun
tain of human Jurisprudence."
The usually decorous Benato broko
Into a storm of applause, and the
Thurman oyo moistened a little. Tho
two statesmen wero the best of
friends nnd greatly 6nJoyed each oth

A Wetter If Not a Better Man.
A little man In the west of England
rushed to the river-lust summer, swear
ing loudly that ho would drown him
self. When ho had waded In to
the depth of his waist his wife, who
had followed him, seized him by tho
hair, and then, as a local editor de
scribed it, sho led him" back till he
reached a placo where tho water wns
about two feet deep, whero she pulled
him over backward and soused him
under and pulled his head up again.
"Drown yourself (down ho went).
leaving mo to father tho brats! (An
other plunge.) Get drunk (another
souse) and start for tho river! (An
other dip.) Better use tho water in

heart's content sho led him out a
wetter If not a better man and escort
ed blm Into the houso and closed the
door.
The Qordlan Knot.
Tho famous Gordlau knot was made
of leather taken from some part of
tho harness belonging to the chariot of
Gordlus, king of Phrygla. It secmn
that this lenot was so tied thnt tho
ends of the leather thong were not vis
ible, hence the difficulty In loosening
It. Mnny must havo tried to untie It,
for Its fame as a "sticker" at lust
reached the great oracle, which declnr
I'd thnt tho lucky experimenter should
bo rewarded by tho kingship of Per
sia. Alexander, trying his hand and
meeting with no better success than
the others, drew Ills sword and cut
Into the knot until ho found the ends
of it
Right to the Point.
When the lord chief Justlco visited

a hospltablo gentleman who hnd nn old
butler, who took tho privilege of speak
lug his mind freely. On one occasion
tho clarot did not quite meet the host's
approval, so he called the nnolent but
ler and Bald;
"I told you you wcro to put tho best
clnrpt on the tablo. Is this the best?"
"No, Rorr, It Is not tho best claret."
replied tho old fellow, "but It'a tho

"In Paris Mr. Whistler and nn Eng

" Mt'fl a good thing wo can't boo our

" 'Isn't It though?' said Mr. Whistler.
