'Englishmen don't want ti be shaved by American barbers." declared my oockney friend, in answer to my query as to the cause of the downfall of the American barber. "Besides, American methods don't go here. Englishmen want English barbers and English meth ods snd English prices.".. "Whv. then, do you hang out a sign advertising the only American barbers in England'" 1 asked. "Wants Their Koneyt "Well." he replied, sfter puixllng a few moments over the question. 'Tthe Strand is. a great atreet for Americans, and they like to patronize something that they think comes from their side of the water. And I." he added, with a wink, "want some of their money." Regarding the failure of the American barber in London I am Inclined to think that the real question hinges not so much on English or American barbers as It does on the question of English methods and prices. The same class shop that charges 15 cents for a shave In the United States charaes but 1 anil in many cases only 1 pence (4 cents) here. But and It is a big but where as, the original charge of 16 cents In the United States includes a hair brush, a face wash, a face lotion and various other frills. In London these are all extras and are charged as such. It Is of these "extras" that the unsuspecting American must beware. Cnarg Tor rushing.

Of course they don't mean so much to the native, for In the great majority of cases he knows how to avoM them, nut for the uninitiated American they make all te difference, and sometimes more, between the excessive cost of living In a city like New Tork and the so called economy of living in London.

That Diets Is willing to risk his life in his client's cause is regarded as significant of the Impres sion of Hau's innocence which the man most closely connected with him bears. The new witness in the case who volunteered to rive valuable testimony calculated to clear Hau Is an artist named Lenck. He waa a prisoner with Hau for a time in the Carlsruhe lockup, and it Is said that Hau confided freely in him. especially Just after Mrs. Hau's suicide. Xefnses to Talk.
