MAN ABOUT TOWN.
Barbers do not work by rules altogether. Indeed, It may almost be said that every barber is a law unto himself. A good shave is a good shave, no matter how it was effected—whether it was begua on the right side or left and without reference to the particular manner in which the razor was manipulated. Similarly, a good hair cut is a good hair cut, regardless of whether the "clippers" were or were not used, and not taking into account the theory upon which the barber operated. "I know," remarked a local barber to the Man About Town, "that my methods are almost wholly my own. Of course I got certain instructions when I was a
but by and by experience wore them out of my mind, and now I do not recall any of them. I presume the same must be true of every good man in our business —if you will pardon the apparent egotism." "Do you generally find that men know what they want in the way of shaves and hair cuts "Well, some do and some don't. 1 should say one-fourth of the men have a clear idea about how they want to be shaved and the style of hair cut that suits them. It has been my experience that many men who are especially fastidious in regard to these matters have the least idea as to what really becomes them—I mean in the style of wearing the hair and beard. When a customer gets into my chair, I first give him an opportunity to tell me how he wants the job done. If he allows me to use my own judgment, I am pleased and try to turn him out looking as much like a gentleman as the raw material will permit." ...
Barbers ar^tlot noted for their unwillingness to talk, and it must be admitted that tliey often talk not only entertainingly but instructively. This one seemed to the M. A. T. to be in a very lucid state of miml and soul and so he listened.
"A
man in our business is something like a poet," he said. "Yes?" "That's what he is. A barber must have imagination and must use it. If he doesn't his success will not amount to much. He will never be known as anything but a scrub. All good barbers have imagination."
This was beginning to get interesting indeed. "Mow do you people use the faculty of imagination}'" said the M.-A. 'j'. "We use it in looking ahead to a completed job." was the reply. 'The moment a man tells me to 'use my own judgment' in cutting his hair or trimming his beard, 1 see that man in my mind's eye as he will look after 1 call 'next.' The way I shall cut It in hair will depend altogether on the shape of his head, the relative length and breadth of his face and his general appearance. You have no idea how a barber can transform a man's looks if you have not given special attention to the matter. Whether the transformation shall be in the direction of an improvement depends wholly upon the barber's imagination and upon his skill in the use of his tools. His judgment being bad, his taste poor and his hands clumsy, the customer will come out of the onleal looking like a freak and it will take nature some time to repair his apj»earanresufTleiently to make him recognizable to his friends. On the other hand, if the barlier is an artist »nti I claim a eraekerjaek in this business must be an artist if he has imagination, taste and skill, he will not handicap nature and leave damages for her to make good, but he will help her out-so greatly that the man will 1M a joy to himself and a gratifying surprise to his family.
Senator Yoorhees always thought a great •leal of the barbers that shaved him. He generally called one to his room during his latter days at the Terre Haute House and would talk uninterruptedly to the workman while he was Wing shaved. His conversation at those times was on all sorts of questions. He was fond of talking to anybody about political matters and it was his custom to entertain his barbers with wise predictions during campaigns. He kept well informed of the progress of the fight and his opinion as to the outcome often wavered from day to day. Probably on Monday it would to him that a certain state would go Democratic. On Tuesday he would hear something that

made him less certain and maybe by Wednesday he woald almost lose faith in the triumph of the party in that state.
The senator was always willing to give tips to the barbers for betting purposes. During the last campaign daring which Cleveland was a candidate for election to the presidency Mr. Voorhees was at the Terre Haute House. He was well enough then to come down into the shop to get shaved. His gouty foot bothered him somewhat, but he would elevate that on a stool or on the washstand and talk politics while the barber did the work. "I am going to tell you how to bet," said the senator one day to the men about him. "I am looking out for reliable indications and when I make up my mind on a safe thing I am going to tell you about it."
Not long after that Senator Voorhees came into the shop in great glee. "Well," he said, "I have got something good for you. I have every reason to believe that Illinois is certain for the Democratic ticket."
This was received without any demonstrations of confidence in the opinion. However, the senator went on: "I tell you it is as sure as anything can be that Illinois will go Democratic. Put your money up on the proposition."
When the senator left the shop the bar-' bers remarked that they did not intend to be taken in on any such "dead one."
But the returns indicated that the senator knew what he was talking about. Senator Voorhees was a great believer in the curative power of the artesian water in this city. He took baths with great regularity and claimed that he experienced much relief from them. He was hauled to and from the bath house in the cab of "Red Bill," whom the senator always addressed as "Willie." The Tall Sycamore would emerge from the Terre Haute House to where the hack was standing at the curb and remark, "Well, are you ready, Willie?" Willie was always ready and away they went for the bath. After the senator would return from these plunges In the artesian water he would seem greatly improved and would grow optimistic as to his condition. Once just before he left for Washington he called a barber to his room to shave him. The senator was in great pain and told the barber that he did not know whether he would live to get to Washington or not. He did live, however, and came back. When the same man went to shave him after his return the difference in the senators looks was so great that the barber says he was greatly shocked. The heavy, strong face had wasted away until it bore little resemblance to its former appearance.
Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

HOW TO FIND OUT
Fill a bottle or common water glass with urine and let it stand twenty-four hours a sediment or settling indicates a diseased condition of the kidneys. When urine stains linen it is positive evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the back, is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's SwampRoot, the great kidney remedy, fulfills every wish in relieving paiu in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passages. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urinate. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. Sold by druggists, price fifty cents and one dollar. For a sample bottle and pamphlet, both sent free by mail, mention The Mail and a send your full postoffice address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghampton, N. Y.
