RACTICAL BIN TING ARTICULAR EOPLE RETTILY HINTED.

PRINTING is the ambassador of trade. It is sent out to acquaint your customers with your business. It goes where you cannot be; it tells the story you would have told had you been able to go in its stead; it is the means by which you hope to attract attention to your house: to interest the public and secure patronage, if at all possible. In order to achieve these results and secure adequeat returns for the money invested, it is vitally essential that your printed literature have qualities. Ordinary.'printing is forgetable prilling. Distinctive printing impresses itself upon the mind and brings results. 3he Courier (Printery, IBylBENlED Doane, Jasper. Indiana.

The Day and th Knipst. Lord Kelvin when a professor at Glasgow university was occasionally obscure and complex when the interest of a side issue led him off the beaten track. This was made the subject of an epigram which contrasted his methods with those of his assistant, Day, to his disadvantage. The occasion chosen was that of his return from having received his knighthood, and a student wrote upon the blackboard, "Work while it is yet Day, for the knight comcth when no man can work." Charged For It. Fanny Kemble, the celebrated actress of years ago, once spent the Bummer at a small country town in Maesachu6etts. While there she engaged a neighbor, a plain farmer, to drive her around. The farmer, desiring to entertain his guest, ex

patiated freely upon the state of the crops and to neighborhood gossip until Miss Kemblo remarked

somewhat testily, "Sir, I engaged you to drive for me, not to talk to me." The fanner said no more. When Miss Kemble was ready to leave town Ehe sent for the man and asked for her bill. Ono of the items therein she cnuld not understand and asked for an explanation. "That?" said tho farmer. "Oh, .at's 'Sass, i?5 I don't often take , but when I do I charge."

THE WAYS OF JAPAN.

You Are Never Sure ef Privacy, Evtn While Taking ß Bath. As one steps before the rido open doors of the reaction room

or into the couit or the kitchen, as;

the case may be, the host an

proaches and greets with n Tow bow,

followed by the hostess and usually

ono or more of tho maids, who, kneeling, bond to the floor. Tho ealutations are returned, a word is

exchanged perhaps about the rooms or tho meal that is to bo prepared,

and the guest seats himself on tho 1 i m i

low porcn or piatiorm that sur

rounds tho onlranccs and removes his shoes or sandals, leaving thera on tho ground. If one wears the Japanese cloth shoo and straw sandal, as I did some of the time, the feet are always washed in a wooden basin of water brought by a maid, who comes clattering around tho outside of the house on wooden clogs to bring it and sets it down before ono on the ground. A little towel is brought, too, unless one, as usual, has this most useful of articles about his person. Then tho guest steps in, in stocking feet or barefoot, and, preceded by a servant, passes through tho open rooms, often between a double line of all the people of tho house,

who are bowing to the floor. lie

enters the room allotted to him nnd there seats himself cross legged on a cushion on the matted floor before a tiny charcoal fire in a brazier and rests at least pretends to rest if he is a foreigner until disregard for ceremony gets the better of him and he adopts an easier position. Presently comes a demure or smiling little maid, with rosy cheeks and fancifully colored Eilk kimono, who kneels outside and slides open the

paper door, enters, kneels- and closes it, brings tea thing3 to tho

center of the room and, kneeling,

pours out a wee cup of tea to tho

guest or each of the guests. This done, she bends her forehead to the floor and patters out, opening and

closing the door, as before. If the guest is an honored one some dainty, such as bean jelly or cakes or

ru uuul'ii roiieu in pins anu

green powder, is brought with tho

tea. Tkn tho guest steps out to

the porch to wash, and as he dries

his face he looks at the little cul-!

turcd garden or off to the distant

valley or forest or mouutnin or soa.

Returning to his room, he is

most of the time alone until the

coming of the meal or, if it chances to be afternoon or evenine. until

the announcement comes that "the

bath 'is ready.'' One is never entirely alone. Access to the room is al

ways free on sever.il ide?, and ho.it, visitor or servant nun comp in at

any time. Une bevornc. used to

this and learns to like it in most

ways, lucre is nothing hidden. It makes life simple and informal and more natural. We found it a dis

advantage sornelimci when we had

oo many visitors whose curiosity

got the better of them-, but wo al

ways took it in good part, finding it amusing rather than annoying. Robert Van Vleck Andereon ii

Real Causo of Baldness. Coming in from East Liberty or a train were two men who annnr

ently were old acquaintances and who met in a jovial mood. Both men were quite gray, but each had a luxuriant head of hair. Near then pat a stout party with a shining dome that was almost destitute of hirsute covering. The two friends exchanged facetious remarks about eihered locks, then indulged in some pleasantries

about the "thinning of the thatch," ! with casual references to doorknobs i and billiard balls, much to tho

amusement of tho passengers, but

to the evident discomfiture of the baldheadcd man. The talk finally developed into an argument on the cause of baldness, and after considerable jocularity the pair turned to tho pearly pated stranger, and one said:
