SHEARED HIS FLOWING LOCKS
British Statesman Recently the Victim
of New Barber and Hie Own
Abeentmindednese.
A few weeks ago the members of
t'l British house of commons gasped
with areazement when Premier As-
quith, whose hair has always been of
a dignified length, entered the cham-
ber bashfully from behind the speak-
er’s chuir and revealed that his locks
had been shorn Jas eloselv as those
of one of Oliver Cromwell’s "Round-
heads.”
At first it was thought that the
premier had adopted a new and more
fashionable method of ‘doing” his
h-ir, but it now* transpires that lie
did not willingly sacrifice his (low-
ing locks. He, as much as anyone
else, was greatly'perturbed when he
discovered his loss.
The catastrophe was due to two
causes—first the engagement of a
new barber, and the other the pre-
mier’s love of books. While the
wielder of the shears wai operating
Mr. Asquith was deeply . nmersed in
a book. He altogether failed to no-
tice the barber’s artistic efforts, and
the barber, proud of his work, per-
formed so well as to leave his victim
among the well "shaven and shorn.”

Doctor Asserts There Is Much Bene-
ficial Psychic Influence In
"8pruclng Up.”
Neatness, bathing and massage are
recommended to men past middle age
who would avoid manifestations of
decline. Dr. 1. u, Nascher of Bos-
ton writes in the New York Medical
Journal:
“The improvement in the general
appearance has a profound psychic
influence, not only directly through
the stimulation of the sense of pride
in appearance, but indirectly through
the flattering comments which it
arouses. This important measure is
generally neglected by men, yet aside
from .he beneficial psychic influence,
for aesthetic reasons alone the old
man "should endeavor to make him-
self appear as attractive as possible.
This does not mean that he should
resort to the artificial devices that
middle aged and elderly women em-
ploy to enhance their charms. It
does mean that the old man should
stimulate the surface circulation by
means of baths and massage, remove
wrinkles and folds by inunction with
animal fats, try to stimulate the
growth of hair on the head and re-
move- hair from abnormal situations
as the ears, use a cane and wear
braces to overcome the tendency to
stoop, employ harmless cosmetic
measures to improve his appearance,
and, above all, observe a sense of
neatness in dress. Instead of decry-
ing such a course as vanity it shouid
be encouraged as a laudable effort to
maintain a youthful spirit.”

You should, I believe* figure with

I will be ready to cry sales any time after
August 15, 1913
and I believe if you will look up my record
you will find that I am the man who can
get the high dollar for your property. I
cried more sales last year than all other
auctioneers in the county combined, which
goes to show that the people have confiden-
ce in my ability as an auctioneer. Every
man.for whom I cried a sale last year, so
far as I have been able to learn, was satis-
fied with my work. What more could you
ask? If you get the money for your stuff,
that is what you want.
