IDE OF A TALK.
A windy November erenluft cIomm! in
Oark and iliaingl, Ihreatenlnn vrlbl
treat Ii.t in tho nlglit. The tea thlnge
(rut away early, wo gathered around the
lire, eah of n In chosen cogy comer,
for a Ioiik. iinlet evening, liatenlnR to
tho wind ami the nrf, half looking for
o ehipwrerked crew to come tone, when
brink foof.teim sounded nntaido ami our
, friend Robtnaun Crnaog bonnded In,
t loatlicr Jnrli.'t mid rbilitng boots dripping
with rain and wilt aprny, hie choeka
glowing nnd hi.1 black f ei snapping
I with fun.
W'c nil started up with the aauio quick
I question of what wan the matter, fancy
ing all sort of mishap to hie lighthouse
or hia dory to ncconnt for his appear
ance in tho storm and darkness from the
farther ride of the alwayg rough chan
nel. Dut he seated himself serenely near
the door, merely saying by way of an
swer . "well, how's things over your
way? Thank you, ranrnt, I won't come
no nearer the fire; I'll set rl' down hero
with my boots, so's not to mus yep (loar
up none " hanging his sleek wet for
cap on nil knee to drip and to dry,
"That plaguy dory of mine, she leaks
like thunder. Dunno how she'll stand
it, laj-ing to your wharf in this way c'
! the wind, while I set. But I guess she
won't damage none but what I ran git
acrost iu her. 'Tntn't -only a couple
o' miles anyway.'1
His shaggy black hair dried in n
tangle as ho talked, smoothed down
from time to time by a hand, sent aloft
when not fldgellng with his buttons, or
tho chair, or his cap,
"I dunno how my man Friday'll get
along while I'm gone. He's kinder scat
o' that leetle tower o' mine, an don't he
hate wuss'n pison bavin me gonef Dy
thunder! But ef he ain't old ernuf ter
stay alone nights awhile I'll tell him he'd
better be gettiu him another job. Lord
he's forty-one, an me goin on twenty -fivel
An I ain't scat. Oh, he's n big fool!
It's his watcli till 12 tonight, anyway,
an he can make the old gal go well
enough if he's a mind to an don't go ter
dickerin with the machinery."
There was a shade of anxiety in his
tonei he rose and tiptoed heavily to the
window, peering out to catch a gljinpse
ot his faraway light.
"There she goes," he said. "Sho's all
right. Hod, ten; white, five; oh.Igneea
the old boy knows what bo's about, but
he'a such nn old fool, really, he don't
Know naif me time wmcu siae nn bread a
buttered."
Sitting down ugniu he stretched one
leg out, while he dragged up from tho
depth, of his trousers pocket a letter
wrapped tu newspiiper.
"I como over to seo if I could Imrry a
postage stamp," he said; then suddenly
laughed aloud at his thoughts.'
"Jim's so sent I didn't say n darned
word how Iwascommollaftcrsnpper.
jest set him wafchin dishes, and that
takes all the mind he's got, nn I enuck
out au let the dory fly; an when she
struck the water ho come a-bustin out
the door on decks thinks I'd foil over
board, ye knowj nnd I sing9 out, pullin
out from the tower, an tho wind a blow
in I says, 'Goodby, Jim,' says J,- 'I'm
goin ter leavo yer now;' an my Lord! ho
stomped int' the entry and slammed
the door to. Choking mad, he was. My
Lord I guess he hain't got over a-cussln
yetl Allns says when 1 dosomcthin out
o' common, says ho, 'Deuced tomfool
ery,' says he;" and Crusoe buffeted his
cap in a tumult of boyish glee,
"When I git back hell be awful glad,
but he ain't n-goin ter let on, mind; he
thinks I hain't got but half an eye, any
how, an ain't never up to his tricks.
But I kuow him, sir inarm, likeabook!
He'll let me haul Ihe old dory up single
handed an think he's takin his spite out
that wny, buVgood Lord! I kin run all
'round him, a. far as tricks goes, Why,
it don't take more mind than I've got In
my collar button to git 'roun ole Friday.
Don't mean no reel harm, nor I don't
never reely hurt him, but he is sich an
old fool I like fe) hector him some. Ef
it blows a hat a puff o' wind he's sent er
the lower tumbltn down,
"That night it blowed so its two
weeks come noxt Monday I tell yer the
old gal shook, an that a n fack. But, my
gracious! she's as tight as tho hair on
yer head, au don't scare me none. But
when we was to supper, an the seas was
a-bangin an a-bustin on ber, and tbe
dishes a-rattlin, I jest hit the table leg a
clip an euyg solemn ter Jim, I says, 'Jim,
we re a goner! an ne up au down a-pray-
in. 'Oh, what'U we dof says be. An I
says, 'Jim,' says I, 'mebbe she'll full to
landward,' I says, an by gosht wasn't
he mad wheu he ketohed on!
"I ben wtuhtn today. Did yer see my
wa.hin out Washed and ironed same
day. See my slilrtf Ain't it clean?
Can't I wash good?" he asked brightly,
standing up and throwing open his
jacket, beating hi breast, as if we, too,
might come forward If we would and
gmite upon big man!) shirt front.
A lino deep red snrged up in his
weather Ufoloii cheeks In pride of per
formauce. ' ' We git dane terrible quick,
we do. Shovo the table up loughide the
stove au let her go. Hain't got but one
flatiron, go I drive her awhile, an then
Jim, when she's hot agin. But don't
Jim make a kick, though! My Lord!
oyg big u good enough, ef he folds em,
an setg on 'em awhile, bot I don't want
no nun roun me that don't iron big
oloes good, an I keep him ut tt, an while
he's javwtn I jest keep to leewaru an My
quiet.
"I'm a terrible good washer an irouer

"When I came to this country," said a

from old Ireland. My first home was
with friends in Cambridge. In one ot
my walks, before I had been here a
week, I camo across a queer, old fash
ioned house that interested me immense
ly. I described it to my friends, and
learned that it was the home ot the poet
Liongteiiow. i nat increased my inter
est. "The next day 1 went again to the
queer bouse and stood gawkily looking
at tt nnd nt an old gentleman sitting in
the yard. I stared so long that the old
gentleman noticed it, and coming to the
icnce asueti me what I was looking at
I told him that I wanted to seo the man
who lived there, because I hal read his
works In the schools of Ireland,
"The old gentleman asked me what 1
knew about Longfellow's writings, and
I told him I knew enough about one
poem to repeat every word of it.
"When be heard that he asked me to
come into the house and recite the poem
to him. I went in and repeated 'Tho Vil
lage Blacksmith' without making a mis-
take. That pleased my listener, aud put
ting on his bat he asked mo to walk with I
him. He said that I should have some-

"He stopped under n big tree and said:
'This is the tree under which that poein
you recited was written, Tho village
smithy was uuder this tree,'
"Then Ihe aged poet marched tip'and
with Ids own hand broke oil a branch of
that famous tree and gave it to me."

The Ilia Tree, of New Zealand.
To bring homo to the mind tho stu
pendous sizo of tho colonial oak, as iho
kauri pine of New Zealand has been
called, it must lie compared with the
largest trees in these islands. Iu Eng
land there are several elms 70 feet high
and 80 feet in girth; oaks 80 feet high
and with trunk. 40 feet Iu girth; and in
Scotland there is au ifch 00 feet high and
lit teet m girtu. But theso are regarded
as extraordinary nnd grow In solitary
grandeur.
The averago girth of trees in Britain is
not more than 13 feet, nor the average
height above CO feet. But in New Zea
land there nre miles of kauris whose av
erage height is not less thon 100 feet,
and whoso girth is not less than 30 feet
or 40 feet. Tho largest knurl yet dlscov
ered was 70 feet in girth, nnd the trunk
was 200 feet high, London Ololie.

BALDNESS HEREDITARY.
So Ray. a. Hairdresser 111 a Learned PI.,
eouri. nn th Subject.
"About bald head.,, now," said a hair
dresser who professed to know nil about
hirsute deficiency and its causes, "they
are as much due to heredity as are
rod heads, black heads, curly heads
or heads that are not curly. And
why are men so commonly liald and
women liald so uncommonly? There
are doctors and men of science who
point to that fact to strengthen their
well known high hat theory of bald
ness. They affect to believe, and In
sist ou their belief, that the high silk
hat and the hard felt hat are responsible
for most of the baldheaded men, the un
yielding pressure of such headgear con
stricting tho blood vessels which nour
ish tho hair bulbs, and thus destroying
their vital properties, the result being
death .of the roots and unavoidable
capillary scantiness. Women, say theso
scientific spes ulalors, do not injure the
vitals of their hair by such means, and
thn3 aro rareiy chronically liald.
..jiaylw they nre right, but I d
don't be-
ljcve it.
Everybody knows that man,
aa the head of the family, has to go to
tho front and stay there in the capacity
of tho breadwinner. The strain of life
comes the most severe on the man in
that respect, lie it is who suffers tho
anxieties nnd battles against the disap
pointments' of busineos, speaking of life
In general. What makes meu prema
turely old? Jtut theso anxieties and
struggles. If prematurely old, why uot
prematurely bald, which la a natural ac
companiment of untimely age? Woman
lias less brain stress. Her sympathies
with the man in his struggle may bo
great, and usually ate, but they do not
make the demands on her organization
that tell wi severely ou the system of the
man.
"I account for much baldness among
men by this theory ot nervous exhaus
tion, but then what will explain Its prev
alence among men whose circumstances
do not require them either to indulge in
business anxieties or undergo business
disappotntmenta? Thus wo see the cosy
going man about town, not yet in his
prime as to years, with na haunting
thought of tomorrow, yet a. bald as his .
grandfather wo at aeveuty We gee tho !
pampered child of fortune, son of o mil
lionaire father, who toils not, neither
doth he spin. et Elijah, whom the bad
boys mocked, t the same time the the
bears came out of the wilderness and
dined upon them, was not arrayed in
less hair tlian one of these. Some might
explain this by tho sweeping charge of
dissipation, but it will not do. I have
among my patrons yontli of this kind
who are models of sobiiaty, propriety
and simple Uving, and yet they are m
bald as doorknobs,
"Heredity Is the only explanation that
an be made 'of tills mysterious depar
ture of the lutir in early life, although
Professor Egtou, an English scientific
person who has made investigation on
the guliject a specialty for years, does not
believe it. anu stoutly declare that tbe
orruee of baldness is no nearer dlarovery
than'lt wag ft hundred years ago.
"But whether I am right or wrong In
my tbaorM I know t um right In this, recent years as beyond qtujgtiou. But
sail that is vrhgti a man is ouoe bold be even this is very doubtful. For our
bj always bald, unless hi hair ha fallen I selves, wc should hare no difficulty the
