Real Cause of Baldness. Coming in from. East Liberty od a train were twomen who apparently were old acquaintances and who" met in a jovial mood. Both men were quite pray, but each had a luxuriant head of hair. Xear then sat a rftout party with a shining dome that was almost destitute of hirsute covering. The two friends exchanged facetious remarks about sdlvercd locks, then indulged in some pleasantries about the "thinning of the thatch," with casual references to doorknobs and billiard balls, much to the amusement of the passengers, but to the evident discomfiture of the baldhcaded man. The talk finally developed into an argument on the cause of baldness, and after considerable jocularity the pair turned to the pearly pated 6tranger, and one said: "My friend and 1 have been discussing the cause of baldness, but we can't seem to agree. Would you

mind telling us what you regard as J the real cause of baldness: The stranger wheeled about, eyed his questioners fiercely and snorted: ''Brains!" Pittsburg Gazette. A Tabloid Fable.

The breeehloading cannon were among the earliest used. We find them on English and other ships as early as the last quarter of the fourteenth century, and therefore much before the time of the buccaneers. The cannon was a mere tube, bound with heavj iron rings, and was loaded by the insertion nf the "sonne chamber," an iron ps:n containing the charge, which f"l into and closed the breech, "".ac ere very clumsy afi.tira in npiirison with the undent l"-T'l'..i'Vr. b"' the principle vus i':c a:t.&. AN ENGLISH BUZZARD. It Took a Regiment of Soldiers to Clear the Roads In 1836. There vas a certain ITcrcules en gine trhich cut a noble figure in the Enclish blizzard of 383G. To appreciate the role played by he Hercules some idea must be given of the effect of the storm on other methods of travel, fourteen mail coaches were abandoned on as many roads. Another -was dug out of drifts five times between Exeter and London. Another was buried so deep that it took 300 men, principally eappers and miners, several hours to make a passage to the coach and rescue the mails and passengers, while near Chatham the sno;v lay to a depth of hirty or forty feet, the military be ing' turned out to the number of G00 to clear the wav. In London the drifts were ten feet deep, and hundreds of men and carts were employed hauling snow out to the fields in the suburb?. The msrkets were in a bad way. One day only four stall holders were able to reach a main market. Greens which a few days before the storm were being sold for threepence a bunch at market now fetched from tenpence to a shilling, turnips, carrots and celery becoming equally dear, while penny handful3 of para ley realized 43. Od., and the happy possessor of a bunch which he had previously purchased for ninepence realized for his prize no less a sum than 1 2b. 3d.. Amid all this confusion the oio neer railways covered themselves with glory by running trains almos without interruption. Ther was i deep cutting on one line where the snow had dnftcd badlv, and grea numbers of people turned out to ceo how the Hercules engine would get along. They imagined, of course that she would be ßtopped, but to their astonishment the engine dash ed right into the drift, "clearing her wav tliroueh ammrcntlv with out the sliglitcst difficulty, the snow at the same time flying over the top of the engine chimney like foam from the broken waves of a violent sea, and notwithstanding obstructions the train came down from Grcenhead (twenty miles) in one hour and a quarter." London Queen.

STRETCH YOURSELF. Do It the Firit Thing After You Wake In the Morning. A splendid thing for the body is stretching. When you first wake up in the morning, take a good, long stretch. Stretch the hands as far

out sidewavs as possible. Then; ßtretch them over the head as far as you can reach, and at the same time stretch the feet downward as far as you can. Raise the feet and stretch upward just as high as you can, and then lower the feet and legs very slowly. When you get out of bed, raise your arms over your head, and, ßtanding on tiptoe, mo how near you can reach the ceiling. Then walk about the rnoni while in this position. Stand on the right foot and stretch the ri;Jit arm forward and upward as high us you can, while at the same Ihn the left foot is raised from the lloor and stretched outward, and the left hand is stretched backward and downward. This is a fine exercise for the whole body and is especially good for the wai&t and hips, making them firm and strong. Standing on the left foot this exercise can be reversed. If you have been silting in the same position for a long time reading, studying, writing or sewing and the musct's have become tired and cramped, the best thing to do is to get up and stretch. Stretch the arms upward and outward and forward and backward. Lift the shoul ders as high as you can and drop hem. Expand the chest and breathe deeplv, or, sitting in the chair, stretch the hands upward, lift the feet from the floor and stretch hem forward as far as possible, any way so you give the muscles a ood, M.jorous stretch. When one is verv tired, there is nothing more restful than stretching the muscles and then relaxing. Exchange. Illuminating Gas. In the Philosophical Transactions of the lioval Societv of London for 739 is printed a letter, written in G91, in which the Rev. John Clavtor details a series of experiments he made in distilling coal in a reort, showing not onlv that he had observed the inflammable gase evolved, but that he had collected and stored them for some time in bladders. In 17S7 Lord Dundohald made gas from coal, with which he ighted the hall of Culross abbey. n 1.92 Kobert Murdoch began the experiments much resulted in tne establishment of coal gas as an illuminating agent. In 1797 he publicv showed the svstem he had ma tured, and in 1798, being employed in the factory oi lioulton cc Watt, Birmingham, he fitted up an apparatus for the manufacture of gas in that establishment, with which it was lighted. This was the first use of illuminating gas except by way of experiment. The Day and the Knight. Lord Kelvin when a professor al Glasgow university was occasionally obscure and complex when the in terest of a side issue led him off the beaten track. This was made the subject of an epigram which con trasted his methods w;:i thn:c of his assistant, Day, to his di.-udvan-tage. The occasion chosen was thai of his return from having received his knighthood, and a st ident wrot upon the blackboard, "Work whil it is vet Uav, for the knight coineth when no mail can work."
