Writer Objects Strenuously to the
Tonsorlal Artist" With His Atro
cious Clothes and Talk.
Scarce a man living but at times
drifts Into dreaming and picturing
what he might do If he had wealth.
Many far too many! aspire to some
thing that may contribute to the sen
sational headlines. Here and there
Is one who merely inclines toward
tome modest benefaction. For our own
part, suddenly finding ourself rich, we
Bhould like to devote much of It to
eliminating the "tonsorlal artists"
from the field of barberdom; sepa
rating the tares from the wheat as It
were.
The average "tonsorlal artist" af
fects the most atrocious neckwear;
dons a millionaire's vest with a mill
wright's trousers, and puts popular
Ideas of garb all at points. He talks
glibly of scandal, horse races and hair
restorer and eventually drives many
a man to whiskers who Is perfectly
sane and normal otherwise. There
are too many of him!
On the other hand the old fashioned
"barber" knows his financial, mental
and artistic limitations. He seldom
feels better acquainted with you the
Becond time over than he did the first.
He assumes you know what you want
better than he does and rarely forces
his "extras." Mostly he Is a good
tradesman, cleanly and careful In his
work. One of his stripe puts greater
crimp In the safety razor business
than all the "artists" combined. Bless
him, there Is not enough of him!
Buffalo News.
Deserved Reward Came Late.
Writing of the celebration of the
one. hundredth birthday of Ambrolse
Thomas, which took place a short
time ago, Karl Delbitz says that the
career of the great French composer
furnishes another Instance of achieve
ment late In life. He was only seven
teen years old when he had mastered
the piano and the violin and was sent
by his father, also a musician, from
his home, In Metz, to the Paris Con
servatory, where he won many prizes
for his extraordinary work. "But he
was fifty-five years old before his
Mignon' was performed and at once
placed him In the same class with
the great performers," adds Delbitz.
"When It had been performed in Paris
1,000 times the president of the re
public. invested Thomas with the grand
cordon of the Legion of Honor. He
lived to be eighty-five years old and
enjoyed three decades of recognition."

Rev. Lyman Powell of Northampton
has a bright little son who is very
much frightened in thunderstorms,
says the Cosmopolitan. One day a
heavy shower came up when the lit
tle fellow had wandered away from
the house. His father, who was watch

toward home as the first drops felL
He looked terrified and his lips were
moving.
"What were you saying?" asked his
father.
"I was reminding God that I am a

Of the many curious customs which
mark Brittany as an especially inter

relating ,to marriage. At the close of

Flight of Seeds.
It is popularly believed that winged
seeds from trees travel to great dis
tances on the wind, but the investi
gations of a British scientist who has
spent much time at Singapore, indi
cate that winged seeds have a far
narrower range of flight than have
powder" seeds and plumed seeds. The
greatest distance . travelled by the
winged seeds of a forest tree observed
oy th'c authority was 100 yards. Under
the most favorable circumstances, he
calculates it would take this plant
just 100 years to spread 500 yards
anr' 1,500,000 years to spread from
the Malay Peninsula to the Philip
pines If a land connection existed.
Sclen'iflc American.
Adroit.
There was a man who used to tell
a fine story about a cannon. But, like
all story-tellers who play fair, he be
lieved in waiting for something to
turn up, in the conversation which
should give him a chance to spring his
yarn.
Unfortunately, most of the conver
sations in which he became involved
were perversely cruel to him. Noth
ing was said in them for several suc
cessive weeks. And this is what he
used to do, in his desperation, to get
around the difficulty:
"Boom Boom ! Boom ! ! ! roared
the cannon at Gettysburg. And, by
the way, speaking of cannon "
. Whereupon out came the story.
