The Hairs of the Head.
Red-haired people are less subject to
baldness than others. A doctor ex
plains the matter thus: The hair of
the red-headed is relatively thick, one
red hair being almost as thick as five
or three brown hairs. With 30,000 red
hairs the scalp is well thatched, where
as with the same number of fair hairs
one is comparatively bald. It takes
nearly 160,000 fair and 105,000 brown
hairs to cover adequately an ordinary
head.

We are told that, in many directions,
It is the Impossible which is true. Per
haps the extravagance of the follow
ing story, told by the New York Times,
may help vouch for its accuracy:
A book club had engaged in the
study of "Hamlet." But two meetings
had taken place when one member
met another at an afternoon tea.
"Aren't you dying for the next meet
ing of the club?" she asked.
"I don't know. Why?"
"Why, because we're studying 'Ham
let' 1 Aren't you simply crazy to know
how It comes out?"
The Cause or It
"What's the cause of all this twaddle
about elevating the stage, I'd like to
know?"
"Want to get it above the level of the
women's hats, I suppose."
PYRAMIDS OF PAIN
Boils show the blood is in a riotous, feverish
condition, or that it has grown too weak and slug
gish to throw off the bodily impurities, which
then concentrate at some spot, and a carbuncle
or boil is the result. To one already enfeebled
by disease, boils seem to come with more frequency.
causing the intensest pain and greatest danger to the already weak and
debilitated sunerer. All skin eruptions, from the sometimes fatal car
buncle to the spiteful little cat-boil, are caused by bad blood, and the
only way to avoid or get permanently rid of them is to purify and
build up the deteriorated, polluted blood, and counteract the humors
and poisons ; and nothing will do this so quickly and thoroughly as
S. S. S. , which is the acknowledged king of blood, purifiers and great
est of all tonics. Where the blood has become impoverished and is
poor and thin, no medicine acts so promptly in building up and restor
ing its richness, purity and
6trength. The time to cure Alleg-heny, Pa., June 11, 1903.

Ijatest Electrical Novelty.
Down near Atlantic City, N, J-,
there has been In successful operation
for several months an experimental
trolley road minus the trolley. More
astonishment still there Is no third
rail or storage battery to be seen on
this unique bit of road. Without any
apparent means of obtaining the all
Important electric current, motor cars
will draw a 200,000-pound load on this
road. Of course, the secret of It all
lies in tbe application of a new sys
tem. Every sixteen feet a point of
connection Is established midway be-
jtween the rails where a metal button
1 projects above a box through which
i passes the powerful current carried
along wires In a subway. A person
might step on this button and one of
the rails at the same time and not
receive a shock, but, as the car passes
over, a powerful magnet underneath
attracts the button and In raising it
establishes the circuit which supplies
the motor with enough of the essential
fluid to propel the car along the six
teen feet of track to another point of
contact. The saving of expenses In
Installation and maintenance over
that of the old systems, the freedom
from overhead wires which so seri
ously Interfere with the fighting of
fires in the cities, and the immunity
from fatal shocks which It insures are
factors which will no doubt bring
about Its raoid adoDtlon.
Meant What It Said.
Mr. Leighton has none of the spirit
of a bargain-hunter, and Mrs. Leighton
decided that to have him accompany
her on one of her Monday expeditions
was more of a trial than a pleasure, In
spite of his capabilities as bundle-carrier.
"Edward, I wish you would look at
that golf vest and see if you don't
think it Is exactly, in every particular,
like the one we saw at Brown's. That
was only 3.75, and this is $4.25. I'm
sure I don't know what they mean by
calling these bargains," said Mrs.
Leighton.
"I can't see that It says they are
bargains cn that placard," said Mr.
Leighton, in an uncomfortably clear
tone. "It says, 'These goods are being
sold regardless of cost,' and probably
they are, my dear."
Fac About Japan.
Among the Japanese one divorce
takes place for every four marriages.
The Emperor of Japan Is the direct
descendant of tbe Emperor - Jimmu,
who ascended the throne 2,564 years
ago, making the dynasty older than
any other dynasty that exists or ever
did exist
The true name of Korea Is Choson,
meaning "Land of the Morning Calm."
It Is by this name that the country Is
designated in diplomatic papers at the
State Department In Washington.
Japanese soldiers are fed on rice,
salted fish, dried seaweed and pickled
plums a diet that Is almost univer
sal In Japan, except In the navy, where
rations of meat are served. Soldiers
are allowed meat when on campaigns,
but rarely eat it.

THE SCRAPPY LITTLE JAPPY.
When we first observed the yellow little
fellow from Japan,
With - his satins, flowers and silks we
grew acquainted.
We imagined him as standing in a gar
den with a fan,
Nigh a dainty paper mansion, nicely
painted.
But he offered no suggestion of a war
ship or a gun,
Or a deed of martial valor,' fiercely
crappy; " -v
Or the military neatness shown beneath
the rising sun
In the plucky little, lucky little Jappy.
When first upon the Yalu he destroyed
the poor Chinese, . -He
displayed for modern war a passion
ready.
He took to shells, torpedo boats and war
ships with the ease
Of a spunky little duckling in an eddy.
Later, when we stormed Pekin, the Jap
was first upon the grounds, -With
a dash that made the god of war
feel happy
You were sure a revelation to the mili
: tary nations,
Oh, "you fiery little, wiry little Jappy.
Lately, when he bearded Russia with de
mands to right a wrong,
We remarked, "Be careful; kid we
would advise,, sir,
That the bear is fierce and shaggy, that
the Czar is cruel and strong
Better look for something nearer to
your size, sir."
But the youngster, like a demon, clutch
ed the windpipe of the bear,
Till his mighty paws were paralyzed
and f rappe.
Now her battleships lie battered, and her
banners torn and tattered,
Bv the spunky little, chunky little
Jappy.

BIRD CAME TO COMFORT HER.
Strange Story Told by Jewish Woman
Mourning Her Husband'e Death.
Mrs. Abram D. Davis, of 436 Ash
land avenue, tells a strange story. Her
husband, who was' a prominent mer
chant, died ten days ago, and she, in
accordance with the customs of the
Jewish religion, retired to a mourning
chamber with her sister-in-law, Mrs.
H. Frledenberg, of Bradford Pa.
The period of religious mourning ex
pired at 9 o'clock yesterday morning,
and just at that hour a bird as large
as a sparrow and as black as night
flew out of the gas grate, which was
burning, and alighted at Mrs. Davis's J
feet Both women tried to scare the
bird away by waving their hands at
it but it stayed three minutes, hop
ped about on a table and finally van
ished through the front door. --Mrs.
.Davis, who .had been grief
stricken because of the death of her
husband, to whom she had been mar
ried thirty years, became cheerful at
once. She tells her friends that It bore
a message direct from God telling her
that she should be comforted and that
all would be well. An examination of
the chimney showed that the bird must
have come down the hot chimney
through a hole about an inch square.
Small blackbirds are foreign to these
parts, and cynical persons say it must
have been a sparrow with a coat of
soot But Mrs. Davis's story has crea
ted a stir in the fashionable district
where she lives. One of the persons
who saw the bird is a Mr. Bornstein,
of 121 West One Hundred and Four
teenth street New York, and he cor
roborates the story of Its strange
movements. Raobi Aaron of Temple
Beth Zion has heard the story. He
expressed delight at Mrs. Davis's com

Divorce Difficult in Canada.
In Canada there are but two things
which can dissolve marriage death
and infidelity. An applicant for di
vorce must act under the provisions of
a law marked at every step by the
most rigorous limitations. If a man
or a woman for the requirements are
the same wishes to secure a divorce,
a formal notice, giving the names' of
applicant and accused with the
ground for accusation, must be insert
ed for six months in two newspapers
published in the town or city where
the applicant resided at the time of
separation. No court of law has any
thing to do in granting divorce.' To ob
tain divorce the applicant must go to
the Dominion. Parliament The di
