(From the Milwaukee 8nn.]
Some writer lias given the following
description of “the first shave.”
“The first time in n barber’s shop is an
event of im()orUnoo in every yonng
man’s life. He will wait, in some oases,
threo weeks after determining to do it,
and on the eventful day he has been
knowu to sueak by the shop seventeen
times, summing up his oourage for this
trying ordeal. On entering the door he
feels that every one in the room knows
that this is his first appearance, and
that they are microscopically searching
for his board. The barber gives him a
hard look when notifying him that it is
uow his turn. But he is determined to
put on a stiff upper lip, as worldly
people say, and go through the oj>era-
tiou with the stoioism of a veteran. He
is remarkably sensitive to ridicule, and
not for tbo world would he have the
barber know that this was his first shave.
Bo he aits on the arm of the chair, in
stead of on the aoat, and in getting
down lies too far back. When told to
tiring up his head, he hastily does it,
and knocks over the stool in the opera
tion. This causes the blood to rush to
his face, and the embarrassment which
produces it is not at all modified by de
tecting the burlier exchanging significant
glances with the ojiorator at the noxt
chair. When the lather Ih being put
on, he cannot oontrol the working of his
imagination, and lie finds himself pos
sessed of an irresistible desire to smile
sheepishly. This pronencss to grin is
inexplicable, lint it is inseparable from
the first shave, and the victim is obliged
to resort to every facial artifice to over
come it, and then doesn't succeed,"
The above is true to nature, but it is
not nature enough. The writer should
have gone on to > tate how the yonng
fellow feels for about nix months hofore
he gets up courage to go to a barber
shop, and how he looks at that cater
pillar-looking, mouldy-oompleoted stuff
ou his upper lip. He sees the fuzz on
his lip before anybody else does, and ho
wonders that all the world is not ou to
it. He goes closer to his girl, ou the
way home from school, hoping she will
see it, and if she does, and speaks of it,
before he has called her attention to the
phenomenon, he is very happy, and
votes her one of the most discerning
women in the world, and he resolves to
make her his wife, if he lives. After his
girl has spoken of the hair on his lip,
the boy feels better, and when he goes
into the presence of grown people, he
expects they will at once stop all con
versation and call attention to his lip,
and when they go on talking aliout
something else, he feels hurt, and when
some one tells him to go to the door and
let the dog in, or bring in somo wood,
he feels crushed, and thinks suoh re
marks should be addressed to children,
and not to men who have hair on their
lips.
From the time a boy first notices the
dew on his upper lip, to the time the
moustache is unmistakable, whioh is
about a year and a half, he is miserable.
He does not go to a burlier at first, but
oonfides in liis father, If he has ene, and
the father finally gets out his razor and
shaves the boy’s upper lip, for a jeke,
partly because he was a boy once him
self. But during the operation the
father makes the boy feel small by tell
ing him that the razor is spoiled, the
edge all taken off, and finally paralyzes
the youth by showing him the lather in
whioh there is not a sign of a hair.
After this operation the boy rubs his
fingers on his lip and he oan feel the
'Card, and it is harsh, and pricks his fin
gers, and he wants to go right off and
rub that lip against the oheek of his
girl, to show her that the world move*.
Then he waits weary months for it tt
grow out again, and wonders how it is
that people reooguize him with his
moustache cut off. When it comes out
again he takes his father’s razor, while
the folks are to churoh and shaves him
self. HiH pareuts know what he has
done, when they come home by the
blood on the towel, and the court-plaster
at the corner of Ins mouth, where he has
gouged himself while trying to look
cross-eyed in a mirror, and shave him
self left-liandod. The noxt time the
beard comes out he calls up all his reso
lution and goos to a barber, and this is
where the above quoted remarks are
iiertinent to his cuse. But the writer
ibove has not told half of the annoyance
the barber gives the boy. The first
thing the barber does is to put a cloth
around the boy’s neck, and take down n
pair of shears. Though the boy’s hair
may be as short as pie crust, the barber
pretends he supposes the boy wants his
hair out, and the poor boy has to strag-
«»® with hie voice, and bring it away
ont of his throat, and say he wants to be
shaved. The barber lays down the
bean, domes up to the trembling boy,
i-n oat jji a chair, looks at him, and
oays, “Where?" That is. the trying
for the boy. He feels that he would
like to murder that barber, and be would
give all be has got if he could get out of
that shop, but he has to put his finger
on bis upper lip, and in a firm voice say,
“There F though he feels more like ory-
inf, Then the barber saya “Oh,” in a
tone of voice that sounds as (hough it
was all he eould do to keep from snort
ing right out laughing. In about two
■icoondi the barber has the boy shaved,
and says "next," and the boy gets out
of the chair in a profuse perspiration,
though it mgy be the ooldest day of
winter, and when he pays for the shave
Lie is proud to notkp that the barber
charges him tall prion. It would kill
him to have the barber charge half
rates. Then he goes out, and aa he
steps on the street and feels of his lip,
ne wonders why people do not notioo
that he oame out of the barber shop. In
time he becomes a regular customer of
the bar ber shop, and eventually raises
whiskers, but ha always hates the bar
ber that shaved him first, and treated
him so disdainfully, and always patron
izes a rival shop.
SMELTING IN MAUVE.
Where Smell, Mold In lloatna an* Nsw Yerk
Come From nnd What the Flihsrn,,
One of Maino’s midwinter industries
that outsiders hear little or nothing about
in that of smelting—not smelting iron,
Imt fishing for a little silvery sealed fish,
something akin to the shiner and perch,
h nd very palutable—in fact a metropoli
tan delicacy. One of the principal fish
ing grounds is at the head of Patten’s
Bay, hi the town of Hurry, Hnnoock
county. Here, about the mouth of a
little strenm, the smelta swarm from
November to February, and many peo
ple of the neighborhood find a lucrative
occupation in angling for them. There
are now fifty men fishing at Snrry, each
man occupying a little tent on the ioe.
In one aide of the tent is an opening,
direotly in front of which is a square hole
in the ioe. At the top of the opening or
door is hnng a pole, in horiaontal posi
tion, from which depend six lines about
a foot apart. The hooka are baited with
a part of a smelt’s belly, thrown in and
then the fisher sits him down and watches.
When a line is swayed to one aide or
otherwise agitated he quiokly pulls it in,
and with it a smeli When luek is " big ”
a Bingle fisher sometimes takes aa high
as 160 pounds a day; when it is poor,
thirty or forty pounds; and the average
is, say, fifty pounds a day. The fish are
laid on boards while limp and allowed to
freeze straight and stiff. They are then
(lacked in barrels and shipped to Boston
uud New York commission merchants.
The commission men sell the fish, take
ont their commission fee and the freight
charges and remit the balance to the
fisherman. The smelts oan be sold on
the ice, just ns they are caught, for five
cents a pound. Saturday a boy of fif
teen years oaught sixty ponnds of smelts
in a few hours and sold them on the spot
for $3.00. But only a few of the fishers,
those who are needieat and want money
immediately, sell at this rate, for by send
ing thorn to New York and Boston they
can realize eight to ten oente per pound.
The fishermon are sailors, farmers and
miscellaneous men-alongshore. They
often make good wages for two months.
One man made $100 in one month last
winter. A oonple of Bangor fisherB se
cured sixty pounds in four heurs one day
recently. The fishing begins at about
two hours flood, that is, two hours after
the tide begins to rise, and oontinnes till
high wnter. The fish first swim low, bnt
toward high water they oome within two
feet of the surface. Boon night fishing
will oommenoe; now all the operations
are conducted by day. After the first of
February the fish begin to go off into
deep water. Many smelts are also oaaght
in the Penobscot river for a distance of
several miles np and down near Ban
gor, but here they are taken with dip
nets, like tom-oods.
HIE LIME-KILN CLUB.
WOMAN’S INWMJBNCB AND OONNBC
THIN WITH l.tBBKTY AND POLITICS-
Those Little Birds.
Mr. Talmage, in his sermon recently,
illustrated some of his remarks with the
following picturesque anecdote: “1
have been told that the Cathedral of St.
Mark's stands in a square in the oentre
of the City of Venioe, and that when
the clock strikes 12 at noon, all the
birds from the city and the regions
around about the city fly to the Bqnare
ami settle down. It come about in this
wise: A large-hearted woman, passing
one noonday across the square, saw
some birds shivering in the cold, and
she scattered some crumbs of bread
among them, and so on from year to
year, until the day of her death. In
her will she bequeathed a certain
amount of money to keep up the some
practice; and now, at the first stroke of
the bell at noon, the birds begin to
come there, and when the clock has just
struck 12 the square is covered with
’hem.”
The prize op $6,000 offered by the
French Academy of Medicine for a cure
for diphtheria was demanded at their
last meeting by all sorts of people,
among whom were a glass maker, a ma-
hinist, an iron founder, a hotel keeper,
and a justice of the peace ; two women
applied for it, one a lawyer’s wife, and
the other the wife of a veterinary surgeon.
One man proposed that the diphtheritic
patient be beaten until ho expelled the
membrane, and another that he be ex
posed to scarlatina as a counter irritant.
There were several who wanted their ex
penses paid to Paris so that they might
?xplain their method of cure, and a large
number who refused to disclose the secret
U-foie receiving the $5,000. No one had
found the infallible remedy.

“1 hold heah a letter,” said the Presi
dent as the meeting opened, “axin’ dis
olub to report its obaervaahuns on de in-
flooenoe of de female sex on liberty,
pollytioks, art, progress and bixneas.
Brother Bebee, what do you know of the
in flooenoe of females on de matter of lib
erty ?”
Brother Bebee replied that ha had of
late years observed a disposition on the
part of the female sex to do as they
pleased, go where they pleased and carry
a bundle of liberty under each arm day
and night. One hundred years ago lib
erty waa a persimmon on the highest
limb of a tall tree. To-day it was a
pumpkin which anybody could roll along
the ground. Everybody breathed it, ate
it and walked arm-in-arm with it, and
the masses oould no more be deprived
of liberty than tiobtailed cows oould
take the first premium at the State
Fair.
“Brudder Pickles Smith, what do yon
know of the inflooenoe of de female sex
on pollytioks?" asked the President.
Brother Smith replied that he knew
of several wives in his neighborhood
who bossed their h ns band’s votes. He
eould slop reoall three or four oases
wherein women had exercised a power
ful influence after their husbands got
home from a convention.
“Brudder Penstock, has yon noticed
any pertiokler inflooenoe of de female
sex on de matter of art?” asked the
President
Brother Penstock had. Such a thing
as making an old, yellow, four-gallon jug
a thing of beanty and a parlor ornament
wonld never haw been thonght of bnt
for the gentler sex. A man would pass
an old tomato can in the back yard a
hundred times a day without a second
look. A woman would seize upon it at
the first opportunity and transform it
into a Grecian vase of exquisite beauty.
Twenty years ago an omnibus with a
landscape on the side would be followed
around the street by a crowd. To-day
a six-gallon crook, to be used ss an
umbrella-holder, with a view of the
Yosemite painted all around it in nine
different oolors, oould be drawn all over
the city on a handsled without exciting
remark. Art had become part of our
every day lives. A stout woman
oouldn’t even fall down on an ioy oorner
without displaying more or less genuine
talent for the artistio.
“Brudder Pullbaok, has you notioed
any partiokler inflooenoe of women on
de matter of progress ?" inquired
Brother Gardner.
Pullbaok thought he had. Women
had discovered most of the oomets, pro
jected the grandest bridges, engineered
the greatest tunnels and wrested the
most secrets from soienee. If it hadn’t
been for the progressive ideas of women,
stage ooaches would yet be running be
tween New York and Chicago.
Judge Oadaver waa asked what in
fluence women had on business, and he
drew a long breath and replied that if
it wasn’t for the female sex the business
of the world would drop one-half; one
dry goods store i> a city oould supply all
the men, but the women supported two
or three hundred of them. Women not
only maintained business, but estab
lished new manufactures. For instanoe
the decoration of female hosiery gave
employment to 6,000 persons the year
round. It waa all out of sight and utterly
useless, but it circulated millions of dol
lars. Pads, bustles, paints, oosmetio
and false hair were of no real service,
convenience or ornament, and yet
$60,000,000 and the labor of 200,000 peo
ple were the annual results. Woman
was straight business. When a wife
whose husband earns only $25 per week
can kqcp a carriage, wear $100 bracelets
and puton a $260 sealskin sacque.the man
who oontended that the female sex hoc
oo financial abilities had better hang up.

An unusual adventure which recently oc

a particularly malarial (lortiou of tue
swamp, a middle aged man suddenly came
into view, carrying a muzzle-loading shotgun:
and completely load ’d down with game of
tlie finest description. Natural curiosity,
aiide from the involuntary envy that in-
siinct.ively arose, prompted the wr.tcr to en*
bf into conversation with the man, with the
following reault:
"You’ve bad fine success, where did you
(et all that game/
"Right here, in the swamp.”
"It's pretty rough hunting in these parte,
eerociallv when a man goes up to his wai t
every other step.”
‘Yen, it’s not very pleasant, b it T am used
tc it and don't tnind it.”
"How long have you hunted hereabouts.”
"Why, bless you, I l ave lived here most of
my life and hunted up lo len years ago every
year.”
“How does it happen you omitted the last
ten years/”
“Because I was scaroely able to move,muoh

I had been tramping around all day in the

I didn’t mind It very much, bnt it kept
troubling me for a day or two, and 1 Could

know, I felt the mine kind of a pain in my
shoulder and 1 found it pained me to move
my arm. This thing kept going on and in

feeling and make myself think it was only a
little temporary trouble, 1 found tliut it did
not go. Shortly after t ills my joints began
to ache at the knees and I finally became to
bad that I had to remain in tho bouse most of
the time.”
"And did you trace all this to the fact that
you had hunted so much in this swamp/”
i "No, I didn’t know what to lay it to, but
I knew that I was in misery. My joints
swelled until it seemed as thouirn all the flesh
I had left was bunched at the joints; my
■fingers crooked in'every way, and aomo of
them beoama double-jointed. In faot. every

through my shoulders. Then again my blood
esemed to be boiling and my brain to he on

“Didn’t you try to | revent all this agony 1”

"Because 1 am completely well and as
