1'J.AYS Ills LAST OAS!K.

'Ain't. There Some Simpler Uuuio'n You'd Kat.fier Play, Gentlenieu "Ain't there some simpler game'n this you'd rather play, gentlemen?" 1 heard the voice down in the center of the car and recognized tf, says a writer in the Detroit Free.Press. It was the old man I had seen several times in my travels in the cars and at the hotels. A roughly dressed, but tine looking, kindly faced old gentlemen, with bushy gray hair and plenty of good natured creases around the eyes. He was forever playing cards never for money, but always for the genuine love of playing, and he played with a hearty enthusiasm which always drew around him a number of interested and amused spectators.

I arose and went back to where he was playing now, with three other passengers, and sat on the arm of a seat to watch the game. "Seven, I'll give," the old gentleman said, as he looked at his hand. "Seven's good, eh? Save your clubs. Two cards, please. How many d' you draw, partner? Two? Oho! We'll get our seven then all right enough. Well, gentlemen, there's ace for high, now put on your pedros. Ah, had it, eh? Well, now give us the other one. No? Well, try 'em again then there he comes. Give us fourteen times." And as his partner marked down the score the old gentleman's eyes trembled and he said: "Ain't there some simpler game 'n this't you drather play, gentlemen?"

Hour after hour the men played the train stopped at stations, passengers got on and off, occasionally a player left the car, but anew man would take his place and go on with the game. I went back to my seat and adjusted myself for a nap.

The car was warm and permeated with the odor of oranges and peanuts. As we jolted and bounded along I sleepily listened to the hum of conversation, the rumble of the wheels, cracking of the hot stoves, and the occasional whistle of the locomotive Above all I could still hear the old veteran's remarks. "There's for low. Put down your pedro. Now take that if you can, and that, and that! Ain't they some simpler game 'n this't you drather play, gentlemen?"

Amid the confusion of sounds I dropped asleep. I had a horrible awakening. Screams, oaths, crashing of timbers, hissing of steam aud then^a sensation of falling and dizziness another crash, and I knew no more until I found myself lying on the ground with a number of others who had been extricated from the wreck.

I was dazed, but not bady hurt, and for a minute I law on my back trying, in a confused way, to realize what had happened. I heard groans and exclamations of pain around me, and then I heard tbe voice of the old gentleman. "Pass!" he said.

He was lying close to rae aud I sat up and looked at him. His fine old face was ashy white. He was terribly hurt and delirious, and he kept repeating the phrases he had used in playing. "Seven! No, hold" he quivered with pain, "hold on!" he said, "I won't" —another convulsion passed over him— "I won't bid!"

I took off my coat and placed it under his head. He writhed with pain. "Take thBt—if—you can," he said, "and that and that!" A parting wrench convulsed his old frame for a moment, then he became quiet, his hand dropped to the ground, a peaceful, painless look came over his face, and with his dying breath he said again: "Ain't there—some—simpler game—'n this 't you—drather play—gentlemen?'

BARTERING A TOWN.

A Community That Had Its Hnir Cut to Amuse tlie Foiuig Men. A stranger visiting Sylvania now would be amusingly impressed with the similarity in appearance of all its male inhabitants, and he would have been much more amused had he witnessed the process by means of which they all reached this state of common brotherhood.

It was so dull the first part of the week that even tbe honorable and timehonored "Sylvani agoscompany" began to show signs of falling into innocuous disuse, and ceased to furnish its members with the usual enlivening elixir of mirth. Of course something had to be done so a few of the members decided that they would shave up clean and have their hends clipped. Our barber, Mr. 11. R. Kemp, did the work up in rare and rapid style, and the boys were so well pleased with their new selves that they magnanimously resolved to do the town up likewise so out they etarted on a clipping expedition.

The first victim that walked into the hands of the spoilers was a young man with curly hair and quite a long beard, of which he was very proud. He kicked and swore, but it was no use. He was escorted upstairs, and in a few minutes, by virtue of his white head and shining face, was a member of the Mystic circle of the Slick. Then the fun commenced in real earnest. Young men, old men, and boys, just as they happened to come along, were gathered into the fold. Some submitted meekly to the inevitable, some pleaded piteou9ly or threatened prosecution, some protested and struggled violently, but the same fate awaited them all alike each came out with a slick face and a hairless head. When the "subject" became too obstreperous one of the committee took the clippers and mowed a furrow down the center of his head. This always had a _very| quieting effect, and the operation was then performed without any further trouble. One of our lawyers escaped several times by fast running, but finally came out and gracefully surrendered and he, too, now wears a white head. Another lawyer outran an official and managed to save his scalp for a while.

The only man in the town who did escape—if escape it can be called—was a young clerk who, when the canvassing committee was on the warpath, slipped upstairs and was quickly clipped, thus taking fate by the forelock, as it were.

Everybody is alike down here, and it is a rare sight to see a citizen with hair on his head. One man in this unique condition came into town yesterday, and from the way he was Btared. at and followed around one would have thought he was John L. Sullivan himself. Our barber was in the clique, and did all the work for nothing. Of course, he will not do anything mQr® inthe hair-cutting line for several months to come, but probably he didn't think of that, or was willing to submit to the sacrifice for the fun.—[Atlanta Constitution.

A gray beard on a man under 50 makes him look older than he is. The best dye to color brown or black is Buckingham's Dye for the Whiskers.
