* ; The Barber's
■* . A Birmingham barber was cutting them
P r °f use ' oc^s ®f a ya'ung w
some pretensions to being
literary, atto occasionally poses before Ji
his friends as a great genius. S|
With a supercilious smile and words fl
that could be heard all over the room, gi
the young man inquired: “I say, bar- R
ber, what makes a man grow bald?” I'
The barber snapped his scissors once f
or twice and ran the comb through his I
beard. •’ I
“Well,” he answered slowly, “if a man I
has got lots of brains and is a deep
thinker he generally gets bald. That,
they say, leads to it every time.”
Several of the customers looked at the j
young man's luxuriant crop and smiled j
rather broadly. The young man, how- <
ever, did not exactly see the joke. So,
pretty soon, when the barber was run-....,
N ning his fingers over the curly locks,
, \. he tempted fate again.
X “I say,” he asked, ''do you think my
hair will come out and I’ll get bald?”
The man of the scissors paused re
flectively, and then, in a tone as if ha_,
was delivering a judicial decision, an- ■
nounced:
“No; I don’t think you stand in any
danger of getting bald.” '
’ Then the crowd laughed and the bar
ber looked surprised.— Tit-Bits.
DRAMATIC ART.
The Feather Duster, which “appears
to advantage” in Act 1., spoke first
“ This tendency toward novelizing the
drama by dramatizing the novel, I de
cry,” said she. ■
The Soda Siphon, who "brings down
the house” in Act 11., agreed with her.
“It futilizes our most strenuous efforts
to’uplift the Stage,” said he. ,
Both turned to the Slap-Stick who
“receives an ovation” in Act 111. The
trouble is,” he said, “that nowadays the
authors do not consult our idiosyncr -
sies and temperaments in writing tfii
plays, but expect us to merge our sple J
did identities in their feeble charact
izations.”

Removing Mildew Stains.
: This is the season when inlldeV
stains are most troublesome, but the'
can be easily conquered, even durini
1 the “murky” midsummer days. To |
remove mildew' from linen mix togethj
era tablespoonful of soft soap witji
enough powdered starch to make $
rather thick, a teaspoonful of salt an '
the juice of a lemon. Apply to tlihj
stain with a paint brush on both Sidell
of the linen and leave the stained arti’l
cles out on the grass a day and a '
-night, or until the spot is removed.
Repeat the process if necessary, but
one application will generally prove |
.su/iicient. After the stain has disap
peared have the article thoroughly
washed and dried.

Embroidered Centerpieces and Doilies,
The custom of serving breakfast and
luncheon on a polished table with the
embroidered centrepieces and doilies
taking the place of the usual cloth is
more in vogue to-day than ever be
fore.
Among the most highly appreciated
gifts to the housewife or bride con
templating housekeeping nothing riv
als the embroidered sets consisting of
centrepieces and doilies of various
shapes and sizes that are exchanged by
intimate friends. For this purpose
the favorite blossom of the recipient
is usually selected as the motif for
all of the principal pieces. ■
For dinner the edict has gone forth
that white embroidery alone should be
used, but there are many housewives
who refuse to give up the exquisite
colored embroidery that has been a
feature of table decoration for so
many years.—American Queen.
Modern China Monograms.
Much of the handsome china used
nowadays is marked with the mono
gram or crest of the owner. It is a
distinctive mark that differentiates
the china from all other ware, and the
lettering is an ornament in itself. It
i is usually the more simple china that
it ornamented in this way, and an at
tempt is being made always to put the
lettering upon the side or wing of a
viatt, US lilt- A nv. . *
prevent wear. Old-time china was I
e frequently marked in the centre of the j
date, and the marking was worn away j
’ jy the knife and fork.
. In some instances entire sets of chins
i. or different courses are marked, am
each piece of a dish—the cover,
: the dish itself, and, if a soup tureen,
1 the piece upon which it rests. The let
j ters for the marking are always the in-
I itials of the mistress of the house and
, are put on in script in preference to
the block letters. The lettering is usu
ally in gold, but occasionally one let
“ ter will be put in in color and the oth
ers in gold.—New York Tinies.
