“You’ve got as much time, perhaps,
as I have. I haven’t any complaint to

I want to talk to. I bought an icebox
at yonr store a few days ago for $16.75.
I might have got it cheaper somewhere
else, but that isn’t the point. Having
bought it and paid for it, I had a right
to expect it to be delivered within a
reasonable time and in fair condition.
It didn’t come for fonr days, and when

“Say. yon. I employ men to hear
complaints of this kind”—

was scraped off the outside surface in

as if it had gone through a hard season

“If there’s anything wrong with it.”

“Stand a little farther away from

“If yon were here, sir. I should kick

Austrians are very methodical in

with their barbers. The Barbers' and

that only competent persons are ad

course, have a thorough knowledge of
the practical side of the subject, and
they are questioned as.to keeping razors,
brushes, etc., clean, and the general
idea of antiseptics rnnst be well under
stood by them. When the barbers ap
pear before the committee, they have
their razors dulled on a pine plank, and
they must then sharpen them and pro
ceed to shave a subject
These subjects are recruited from the
poor and from among those who are
fond of getting something for nothing.
If the apprentice performs his work to
the satisfaction of the judges, a certifi
cate is issued to him, and he must serve
as an-apprentiee for two years before'he
can open a shop of his own. Provision
is also made for women barbers who de
sire to carry on the business of their
husbands. To do this the women have
to be enrolled as apprentices for three
years, and they must exhibit a great
proficiency before they are allowed to
open an establishment of their own.
The barber business in Austria is not
particularly lucrative, as one can be

How Queen Bess Dined. '
The setting out of the dinner of
Queen Elizabeth was a ceremonious
function. First came a gentleman with
a rod. followed by a gentleman carrying
a tablecloth, which, after they had
knelt reverently three times, was spread
upon the table. Then came two others,
one with a rod. the other with a salt
cellar. a plate and bread. They knelt
three times, placed the things on the
table, knelt again and retired. Next
came a lady in waiting, followed by a
second. The first lady, dressed in white,
after kneeling three times, approached
the table and solemnly nibbed the
plates with the salt.
Then entered 24 yeomen of the guard,
clad in scarlet, and each carrying a dish
of gold. These dishes were placed upon
the table while the lady taster gave to
each of the gnards a taste from the dish
he had brought in. for fear of possible
poison These gnards were selected from
the tallest and stontest men in all Eng
land. At the close of this ceremony a
nnmber of nnmarried ladies appeared
and with great solemnity lifted- the
various dishes and carried them to the
qneen in her private apartments. The
queen dined and supped alone, with few
attendants, and it was seldom that any
one whs admitted at this time and then

The llama, that docile animal which
was the beast of burden in Pent in
prehistoric times and played the part
that was assigned to his cousin, the
camel. In Egypt and Arabia, is still
seen in large numbers in the mountain

warmer latitudes along the coast. He

A llama will carry 100 pounds and
no more, and if you add an ounce to
his load lie will lie down and wait un
til it is taken off. He kuows when lie
has enough, and there is no use in try
ing to argue with him. The native In
dians have learned this by the experi
ence of generations, and when a llama
lies down they immediately unstrap
and diminish his burdeu without mak
ing any fuss about it. Then, when he
is satisfied that lie lias been given no
more than his share, he climbs on to
his hoofs again and follows the moun

without murmuring or slipping or for

Man’s Million Years.
According to the conclusions of Mr.
A. H. Keane, a well known English
ethnologist, the first creatures that
could properly be called men appeared
on the earth in what geologists know
as the. pliocene period, somewhere
about a million years ago. The pre
cursor of man, Mr. Keane thinks, was
some such apelike creature as the
Pithecanthropus erectus. discovered by
Dr. Dubois iu Java a few years ago.
Four varieties of- men were developed;
Homo ethiopieus in Africa south of
the equator. Homo mongoficus iu cen
tral. Asia. Homo amerieanus iu the
new world and Homo caucasicus in
northern Africa. From these the exist
ing races are descended.
Deceptive Covers.
It is safest, iu Loudon secondhand
bookstalls at least, to look into a book
before buying it. A London bookseller
lias confessed in court that he and oth

appears that the plaintiff had found
on buying “Nicholas Nicklcby” and
“Oliver Twist’’ that there was never a
word about Nicholas and Oliver in
them.
