1 am quit aware that I am running
in to the face of tradition in commend
inff French barbers. The tradition is
false. That brilliant satirist and
roaster of grotesque lampooning-. Mark
Twain, has built up a reputation for
the French barber which he w ill never
be able to shake off, as far as the be
liefs of Americans are concerned.
r But the man is maiig-ned. nevertheless,
as any old resident of Paris can testify,
. -lint Mark Twain's sarcasm on the
barber of England Is well bestowed.
He has even understated the case. A
distinguished American novelist whom
I met in London told me that he was
plad that he had come to England for
two reasons. In the first place he bad
learned to bathe every morning, and
in the second he had acquired the art
of shaving himself.
"The first of these," he said, "keeps
me free from colds In the head, and by
the second I eseape the horrors of the
barber shop, and particularly of the
British barber."
It is considered in England rather a
common thing to go to a barber shop.
as all the toffs are shaved by their
valets, and the men who imitate them
shave themselves, so as not to reveal
the fact that they have no personal
servants. Tho few barbers that exist, ;
however, make up in crime for this:
paucity of number. They are brutal
to a point never attained even by the
most gallus and showy Southern negro
tentorial artist The familiarity of a
London barber is almost as bad as his
brutality. He pulls his customers
around, jerks, scrapes, saws and tor
tures them, with endless enthusiasm.
I have never been able to understand
why any man adopts the calling of a
barber in Germany, for the pay is ab
surdly small. I don't remember the
exact figures, but know that it never
failed to startle me when reckoning
day came. All over Germany they give
credit with a degree of truthfulness
. which the foreigner considers a beauti
ful tribute to the general honesty of
human nature, until he learns of the
great strictness, power and almost in
defatigable work of the German police.
"It is impossible for a debtor to get
across the border, and hence the truth
fulness.. The first barber I ever had in the
German empire was the picture of
Fritz Lietz, the pianist, except that he
was not gray. He charged about
twenty cents a week for coming to my
hotel and shaving me every morning,
and it was two weeks before I got over
being abashed in his presence. He had
a huge shock of blonde-hair, which
was combed back from a noble fore
head and cut off square across the neck
after the fashion of Abbe Listz, and he
v invariably wore a frock coat, buttoned

1 ou pour a little of the mixture into a
clean bowl, and wash the gloves in it
as you would wash anything with soap
and water. When the dirt is about re
moved, rinse the gloves in some clean
fluid. Usually one rinsing is enough,
but if the gloves are very much soiled
rinse a second time. If the gloves are
of a cheap kind, it is best to dry them
on the hand, but a fine glove, after
having been rubbed with a soft cloth
to smooth out the wrinkles, may be
hung on a line to dry like an ordinary
garment. The peparation is an excel
lent thing to have handy, not only for
rejuvenating gloves, but for removing
grease spots from clothing and carpet

FACTS ABOUT PAPER."
torn lnteroxttn Historical Notes
Coaa
rernlne; 1m Origin.
We have raked up the following facts
from a few mnstv tomes, which we
trust, will please numerous corres
pondents, and prove as interesting to
them as it has bten laborious rtr us to
unearth them. It Is not known when
paper was llrst made from linen rugs,
nor to whom we owe the invention.
Dr. Pvideaux is of the opinion that
linen paper was brought from the East,
because many of the Oriental manu
scripts are written upon it, Nahilon is
or the opinion that the Invention be
longs to the twelfth century. Une of
the earliest specimens of paper from
linen rags yet discovered is a docu
ment, with the seal preserved, bearing
date A. D. 1239, signed "by Adolphus,
Count of Schaumburg. Casirl, how
ever, asserts that there are in the Ls
curlal a number of manuscripts, both
upon cotton and lineu paper, which
were written prior to the thirteenta
century. The Invention was early In
troduced into England, for some acts
in existence of John Crauden, Prior
of Ely, made on linen paper, bear date
in the fourteenth year or the reign oi
King Edward H., A. l. 12;!!); and lin the
Cottonlan Library are said to bo several
writings on this kind of paper as early
as the year 1835. Some twenty years
ago Mr. Thomas Wright. In a note to
the London Athemrmn, wroto: "1 have
made a little discovery, which, 1 think,
will be considered curious in the his
tory of paper. 1 believe that the first
traces of the use of paper in Western
Europe are found toward the end of
the twelfth century and we have no
reason to suppose that it was in use in
England until the thirteenth or the
beginning of the fourteenth. It Is un
derstood to have boon brought west
ward from Italy, where it was in ue
earlier; and 1 believe that our word
paper a corruption, of course, of
papyrus is considered to have been
borrowed, with the article Itself, from
the French. I saw, years ago In Paris
I believe they belonged to the royal
collection (it was in the time of Louis
Phillippe) a few of the earliest docu
ments on paper known, belonging to
Western Europe, in th period 9ince
the Romans, which interested me much.
They consisted of receipts, or rather.
! bonds, for money borrowed from the
Jews in the time of Coeur de Lion,
given by chiefs who were starting for
his crusade, and, if I remember well,
the paper resembled much that of the
fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, except
that it was of a rather coarse textur. It
would seem as if, in the West, its use at
this early period was known principally
among the Jews. Now I am just pass
ing through the press an edition of a
glossary of Latin and English or, as
we are accustomed to call it, Anglo
Saxon words of. 1 think, not later than
the middle of the tenth century. We
may safely look upon it as the English
of the days of Athelstan: and in the part
of which I have just received the prool
1 find papvrus. paper. The word
paper does not occur in Dr. Ilos-
worth's, or any other Anglo-Saxon
dictionary, hut we have here evidence
that it was in use m our language at a
very early period and there cannot be
a doubt that we derive It from the An
glo-Saxon and have not taken it from
the French of the Middle Ages. But
this fact leads us to another, namely
that our Anglo-Saxon forefathers, t
have the word in an Anglo-Saxon form
in their own language, must have been
pretty well acquainted with paper it
self, and no doubt they found the
Roman paper in use on the island
when they came. It is a fact, indeed
which opens to us several others
equally new, in the social history ol
our Anfflo-Saxon forefathers. I need
hardly add that paper probably nevei
went entirely out of usa in Western
Europe after the Roman times, and a
little research might still throw soon
curious light upon its history during
the early Middle Ages. It certaiulj
was not supposed before that it might
be in use among the Anglo-Saxons."

DAMAGE BY MOISTURE.
The Sweating of liomU In Iron Ship the
Latest Peril ot the Hem.
Genuine sea damage, t. r., damage
by actual contact with sea water t
goods on loard ship, has largely de
creased since wood gave place to Iron
and steel in the building of ships, and
sail to steam. Iron does not offer the
opportunities which wrnxi does t
water to find Its way into the holds ol
vessels. The consequence is that per
ishable cargoes are m re safely carried
than they were so far as sea damage Is
concerned. But there is an internal
enemy to the soundness of cargo, as
well as the external salt water, in the
shape of eonden-ed moisture arising
from the goods themselves. And uti
fortunately the damages caused by this
peril seem to be on the increnso.
Sometimes when cargo is Improperly
shipped damp and shut up in the hold
of a vessel on a long voyage, it is to be
expected that the moisture will evapo
rate and damage other good on board.
In such a case, of course, both mer-
;hant and captain are to bla,me the
