"Monday la always a alow day with
us," said the barber to a Philadelphia
Record man. T have never been able
to figure out Just why this should be.
but. the same condition exists In every
shop In town.. If barber wants to lay
off for - a y day, he ; generally , selects
Monday,' s and i If - the ,' dobs has an
emergency man, he always lays him off
on Monday. : : I dare say the business is
50 per cent, less than on any other day
in the week. This is all the more sur
prising, because it is tlsre-st impossible
to get a shave in Philadelphia on Sun
day, and a man's beard grows in spite of
the societies that close us up. I sup
pose a lot ot men . go out oi town over
Sunday, and others who stay at home
shave themselves. At any rate, busi
ness doesn't really begin until Tuesday
morning.

FUI ORCHARD TOYtt.
Which Attended Planting of
toft 'Ti Srings Ye Xa
dast f to.
One day some , years ago an euter-
prising resident of the village of Syra
cuse,. O., brought a Damson plum tree
home with him and planted It in his
front yard, says Country ' Life, v It
grew and thrived and In good time
bore fruit It was good fruit, and he
planted more along his garden fence
from sprouts that came up from the
first tree. They also soon bore fine
plum By this time his neighbors had
their attention attracted to his modest
plum orchard. ' They bought his sur
plus plums and begged sprouts from
about his trees, thus exemplifying the
spirit of the boys who desire to cast
their lines in productive pools. . It was
found that the locality was compara
tively . free from two . very annoying
plum pests blagk knot and insects-
and the great bend in the river seemed
to protect- the . fruit from late frostsT
so that two full crops every three years
might be expected with reasonable cer
tainty. The result was - that ' plum
growing spread from lot to lot and
from street to alley until the Industry
amounted almost to a erase. . The mar
kets grew and expanded, however, and
there never was any difficulty in dis
posing ; of . the : crops at good prices.
When other localities had crops Syra
cuse had to be content with the ruling
prices L 1b the general markets, but
when- other: places ; failed, -Syracuse

M0YA8HI UDO 13 POPULAR.
Japan Plant with Peculiar Hum
Pom mm. Combined Tlavor of
- Pineapple and Lettu.ee.
One of the products of Japanese
farms which may become popular and
its cultivation profitable among the na
tions of the west, says Bpoklovers Maga
zine, is moyashl udo, a remarkable salad
plants which is crisper than celery, pos
sesses the combined flavor of pineapple
and young lettuce," is devoid of fibers
and comes into outdoor maturity in mid
winter. It Is predicted by American sci
entlflc agriculturists who have been in
Japan and noted the flavor, popularity
and growing habits of the udo plant,
that it is destined to become as famous
and as important a table delicacy in Eu
rope and America as asparagus or celery.
The udo-plant has been grown in the
United States purely as a rare orna-:
mental, as it was not supposed to be edi
ble." Now that it is known to possess a
value which promises to give it an hon-.
orable place with asparagus and simi
lar dishes; its cultivation by; American
truck farmers may, prove decidely prof
itable. " It Is to be remembered that what
gives the udo distinctive value is that it
matures in the winter time. When
served udo salad is as white as snow.
and luscious as silk. "
WOMEN AS TAX DODGERS.
Xil-waahee - Oommlssioner Deelarea
That Ken Axe More Honest Be- ,
" garding Property Values.
Tax Commissioner Bruce h&a found an
honest man. . In fact, he claims that sev
eral of this species have found their
way into the offices of the tax assessors,
and his opinion of human nature, he de
clares in the Milwaukee Sentinel, has
risen several degrees.
"When I first began thlo work," said
Mr. Bruce, "I had a fixed idea that one-
half shirked its taxes and that the other
half had none to shirks My opinion has
been ehanged, however. - There have
been several cases as many as five or
eix-n which men have asked, yes,
begged,: the assessors to put them on
for the full value of their possessions.
They seem to take a certain pride In
their- honesty..- ; - ..
"Women are worse than men, when it
comes to concealing property. In many
cases tney even refuse to permit the as
sessor to go into the house. As a re
sult the assessor assesses them for more
than they could possibly be worth, and
thus usually brings. the husband to our
office with a sworn schedule, as well as
an apology for his wife's rudeness." .
1 60,000,000 f HORSESHOES
Enormous Vumber TJaed In the United -
States and Canada Annually
Bobber Shoes Have Wo Effeet.
"Two million kegs, containing 190,-
000,000 horseshoes, are used annually
In the United States and Canada, ap
proximately speaking,'' said S. I Mar
tin, of Boston,, who represents an iron
manufacturing; concern of the. east.
"That was about the number used last :
rear, and all the hue and cry about rub
jer, shoes and automobiles is raised In
the face of a constantly increasing sale
yt horseshoes. As a matter of fact, the
use of rubber horseshoes, which Is con-
flned almost altogether to the large cit
ies, is a help to manufacturers.' , The sale
of the old-fashioned shoes goes on in
;reasing. and in addition to that the
manufacturers have an opportunity to
make the steel portion -of rubber shoes.
all so called rubber shoes have a rim of
steel in them, and it is usually of better
metal and gives the manufacturer a wid
er berth for profits than the old-fashioned
shoe." " ' ,
JEachlne Ead Votoe wrong.
: They have a story in London of an Ox
ford don who was induced to speak into
a phonograph. Some time later the ma
chine was set going again and he was
asked to-listen to his own voice. He
did bo, and after the sound had ceased
he said to the assembled company: 'It
is strange that this machine makes me
speek in bumptious and affected man
ner." - - -
