Evidently he knew that "the new year had arrived. Evidently, quite apparent, in fact, it might be easily imag ined that he had been celebrating the big event. But the cat knew nothing about the New Tear. Nor did it care. But It was happy and playful. And then the re morseful one went on to philosophize on the good sense of animals and the poor judgment of man. The cat that was feeling so good this morning is the pet of the hotel. It Is pure white. The telephone girls call the cat "LHHe White." Among the Japanese bell boys the pet is known as "Neko,V a Japanese name for cats. The clerks call the cat "Sunday," because several months' ago she strayed into the hotel lobby on a rest day, made friends- with every c-ne and has made her home there ever since; The cat romped about the place this morning and had the best time in its life. Tho had-had-a-good-tlmers looked at the cat with envy. "I'h-going to get out of here," said the one who had been envying the cat, "that little Innocent animal there makes me feel ashamed of myself." 'Then he strolled downheartedly out Into the street in the direction of a bar room. The cat continued to play. HONEST PORTLAND BARBER DASHES HOPES OF BALDHEADS Portland not only has the greatest lumber mills In the world, the largest flouring mills oft the Taciflc coast one of the finest fresh water harbors on the face of the globe and as pure drink ing water as can be found anywhere, but a barber who tells the truth. He frankly admits that he cannot cure baldness. This barber is Just 'like all other men of his trade. He asks his custom ers if they wast their hair cut or shave and when that task is completed he mentions something about a facial massage. And incidentally, before he is through with his man he wants to know if' a little tonic Is wanted on the hair. He doesn't even insinuate what the tonic might be good for. And Just to keep- his customers from going away mad this wonderful Portland barber suggests something about having one's fingers manicured, and In fact all the other tWmmlnps which go to make up the toilet of a man. But when it comes to baldness "it is LIBEL FRENCH BiF EUROPE JOR $40,000 Owners of Wrecked 'Annie v Comings Seek to Becover , for . Vessel's Loss.

Another distinct feature of the Portland barber, different from all others in the wold. is the fact that he himself has a luxuriant growth of. rUci brown hair. "Getting a little thin on top," he says to his customers now and then, barber fashion. , "Tea"," the customer usually replies, dot a cure?" And then it ia that the blow falls. "Baldness cannot be oured," quickly answers the frank barber, "I can't do anything for It Neither can any one else." Then tne customer goes out thinking, thinking.. It Is the hope of every own er of a bald pate that some day he will run across a retried v that will antunllv restore to his head the long; thick hairs of his boyhood days. Portland's frank, truthtelllng barber stands out in his class alon. There Is not another like him in the world.

Mandl couldn't find it, but after con siderable search in the barnyard Mrs. Mandle brought it forth, horns and all. "That ain't a deer, it's a goat," said the warden.' v - . . "That is so," said Mandl. Then it was all off. Mandl was the first to tell the Joke, which was not only on him, but his customers, who thought they bad been eating venison.
