It Is Jiair that is brushed every day with a clean, tol­ erably stiff brush. It is hair that Is no': burned, and whose very appearenoe does not suggest the sound of sizzling locks. It is hair that is not out off at thfr back of the neck nor at the ears. „ When the hair is brushed It should be parted, and each division should re­ ceive 100 good strokes from the crown dewn to the end. It should not be brushed fiercely or too quickly, for that ooly tears the hair out by the roots. An excellent preparation for promoting the growth of the hair is a mixture of bay rum and quinine, which should be rdS>bed into the scalp once or twice a week. How to Polish a Stove. "Women generally work twice a^ hard as necessary over blacking a stftve," said a lady, whom we found one day engaged in that unromantic occu* ptftion. She had on a pair of stout leather gloves and was applying the bhicking with the round part of an or­ dinary sho^ brush, which she said was lighter and therefore much more easily w!elded than the usual stove brusli. Tfte other side of the brush she used in polishing with light, even strokes, like ap expert bootblack. "I always keep soft p#per bags from the groceries tucked in ttfts box nailed up near the stove, and every day I slip two or three over my gtoved hand and give It a rub. The con­ sequence is that I need only apply pol- teb once a week." Another little tiling worth remembering in regard to stove cleaning is to wipe the dust from the st*>ve thoroughly before you aply any p<4ish.

How often in boyhood have I sat by the cheer­ ful kitchen fire and listened with wrapt attention and unfeigned admiration to his quavering voice as he rocked and sang to sleep my peevish baby sister, when even mother was unable to soothe her. The doctor was not called so because he was one, but because he believed he was. Some unappreciative grown peo­ ple and even a few of the ruder boys spoke of him as old Dave, but to us who better knew him he was always Doctor David. He was an old man. To us chil­ dren he seemed a very Methuselah. There was a tradition that at one time he had had a wife and children, but to any but the very oldest inhabitant of the village little credence was placed in the story. For more than a score of years he had been Bpoken of as old Dave or Doc­ tor David, according to the speaker. His home was a little hut on the bank of the river near the grist mill. Only a favored few of us were ever honored with a glimpse of the interior. I was his especial favorite--perhaps because my mother was always kind to him--and I have sat for hours at a time in the dark little cabin, my hands clasped across my knees, and watched him as he sat pa­ tiently making ax-helves or splint-brooms from sticks of ash. At such times I stealthily studied the mysteries of the black roof and sides of the cabin, not daring to ask him concerning the rifle, the shotgun, the ax, the assortment of knives, the skins, the roots and seeds and bunches of dried leaves which were hung In ghostly array in the gloom. Not even I was allowed within the mysterious room when he was concocting his medi­ cines. His "roots and yarbs" and his methods of converting them into salves and bitters were too sacred for even me to know anything about. 1 He never worked. That Is, unless the Your Height and Weight.

I was drifting slowly, but I carried gently along in the center of the the c-uCTeM ;juid that my velocity wouid increase with every moment. To my ears the roar of the fall and the awfiri rapids below sounded louder and more dreadful than they ever had before. I knew the course of the current perfectly, for I had stood on the bridge many times and watched the sawlogs in the spring carried gently along in the center of th# river, going ever faster and faster until as they ueared the dam the current coursed shoreward toward the left bank »"« «.»»w jMuti&eu uuwutraru, uiugiutf uie logs half their lengths in the a'r as they went over the watery precipice.I pictured myself going over the fatal fall, and then my tongue loosed and I added my cries to those of my terrified playmates, who until now had not had the presence of mind to run for help. In an incredibly short space of time the banks were lined with excited villagers, helpless to render any aid, but each shout­ ing useless directions to the others. I could see my mother running frantically along the the bank and then, sinking up­ on her knees in the snow, turn her white face to heaven. The terror of my situa­ tion had quieted my cries and I was try­ ing to decide whether it would be less painful to plunge Into the icy water and drown than to cling to the frail piece of ice and be dashed to pieces below the but«ven as I was dragged into the water by the rope I cast my eyes toward my preserver just in time to see him stand­ ing on his ice floe on the very verge of the fall, his cap held in one hand and the oth­ er raised above his wrinkled old face, which he had turned heavenward. As he plunged downward I fainted and IN DOCTOR DAVID'S CABIN. knew no more till I awoke in my own bed with mother bending over me.

Bow the Celebration of the Day Was Jfe tabllshed la America. So general is the celebration of Christ- m** 5n Amorloo •>>«.+ I* supposed that it was always commemo- •fated as a holiday. Not so, however. Among the French in the north and the Spaniards in the south Christmas time was a season of feasting and rejoicing; but among the early settlers of Virginia, who had not, indeed, much reason for rejoicing, Christmas was barely recog­ nized. The English settlers who estab­ lished themselves In New Bngland were stern rebels against the rule of King Christmas. Some few, indeed, wished to keep the first Xmaa--in 1020--a holiday, but their leaders would not gratify them. The leaders declared that any one might rest from work on Dec. 25 if he chose; but, they added, only those who worked could have anything to eat that day. And thus the first Christmas day at Plymouth was unobserved. A chronicler wrote: "Monday, the 25th day, we went I DOCTOR DAVID. /A uUtA.a m- • 'Vf " • r j •I In Three Sectiona.

More than our home was al­ ways open to him, and at more than our table did the old man always find a wel­ come. Shiftless and lazy all the villag­ ers pronounced him. Everybody knew he was incapable of doing any great wrong, and no one dreamed that lurking in his peaceful soul there was a drop of the heroic; but let me not anticipate my story. There had been a long spell of cold weather, and the river had frozen over so that there had been good skating!; above the milldam. But a few days be­ fore Christmas there came a thaw, with a great deal of rain, and we boys wen disconsolate, fearing there would be n< skating Christmas. For an eighth of at mile above the dam, where the current, was more swift, the ice broke and wentf_ down stream, tumbling over the twenty-*! foot dam and pounding itself to bits it^ the churning, rocky rapids below. But; higher up, just beyond the bend, the icd' seemed firm, and Christmas morning, despite threats and warnings, half a doz­ en of us boys smuggled our skates pas$ our mothers' wachful eyes and stole offf to the river. Soon we were enjoying thqf« Intoxication of smooth ice, new skates and crisp air. and not a thought of dan-;, ger was permitted to interfere with our sport. One of my skates became loose and I sat down to tighten the straps, not ob­ serving that 1 wa* but a few feet from the edge of the ice bordering on the open water. Suddenly' there was a cracking sound, a chorus of cries, and before I could get to my feet I saw that a great section of ice had cracked off, broken in­ to two pieces, and was floating down stream, the smaller piece bearing me With it. Instantly I realized my peril, very blood seemed to freeze in my dam. I had seen one woman go over that dam the summer before, and the memory of her poor bruised and battered body as it was drawn to the shore half a mile below haunted me for a month. The awful picture came before me again, and I had closed my eyes and was about to jump into the water, when I heard a shout so different from the medley of cries along the shore that I looked to my right, toward the bank across from that on which was my mother. From the right bank of the river, just In the rear of Doctor David's cabin, ex­ tended a log boom for several feet, then turning and running parallel with the shore nearly to the dam. Its purpose was the protection of the grist-mill race­ way from the sawlogs which came down in drives every spring. Running along this boom was Doctor David, with a riv- erman's sixteen-foot pike in his hands. Between me and the boom was the other piece of ice, the companion to the one on which I was floating to destruction. Striking his pike-hook Into the floe, the old man drew It toward him till he could leap upon It. Then, turning, he planted his pike against the boom and sent his piece of ice out into the stream with a powerful shove. Using the pike as a pad­ dle, he aoon came within reach of my floe. We were within a few rods of the dam now, where the water swirled toward the bank before going over the awful fall. on each recurring Christmas to hang a wreath of laurel and holly over the un­ pretentious stone beneath which my hero rests, and I have continued to so honor him since, though many times I have had to send my offering from a distance of thousands of miles.--A. M. Dickinson. Some Timely Resolutions. Everybody is supposed to swear off at the end of the year, that is mere or less. Everybody is also supposed to swear on again in due course of time. In other words, the good resolutions made at the death of the old are supposed to be broken shortly after the birth of the new. In order to make the way easy for those who propose to go into the business of resolving the following have been pre-^ pared by an editor in the East: Resolve: That you will lead an up­ right and noble life. As you will prompt­ ly break this resolution it will ease any qualms of conscience you may have at breaking any others. Resolve: That yon will speak nothing but good of your friends. In this way yon will be able to learn very shortly how very few friends you have. Resolve: That you will never drink again. Then for a couple of weeks you can tell your friends that you bave broke your good resolution merely to drink with them, and they will feel very, on shore, some to fell timber, some to rive and some to carry; so no man rested all that day." When some years later the Puritans established themselves in force around Boston they joined in the re­ bellion against King Christmas until it was the boast of New England that neither Christmas nor Easter was cele­ brated in one of its churches. Not until the reign of William of Orange did King Christmas obtain any recognition in New England.

Striking hia pike into my floe, he pushed with all his might, sending the pole out hand over hand its full length, and then putting all his strength into one mighty shove he dropped the pike, and the cake on which I was went shoreward until I was able to catch a noosed clothes-line which will- very happy. * • , Resolve: Not to marry.

The descrip­ tions of Cambridge life at the end of the last century which have been given us would not hit the mark now. In those days beer drinking and royster- Ing and dog fancying and horse riding occupied most of the time of the young lords, more angles being described on billiard tables than In the class-rooms. This sort of thing Is very much looked down upon nowadays, and the boys who make display of their wealth are by no means the most popular. When the young princes were sent to Cam­ bridge the Prince of Wales left positive instructions that their companion were to be absolutely selected from the Industry stood highest, and that under students whose morals, capacity and no circumstances should they associate with the fast set of young extravagant lords and rich men's sons, who some­ times boasted that they would not have to live by their learning.

I was told by several fellows that from $750 to $1,500 per annum was "icci ute euilie ejkpe-.iistfs u( « young man at Cambridge. That more that tliis sum was not only unnecessary but undesirable. On the ship coming over I met the sons of a rich Philadel­ phia iron master, just from an Ameri­ can college. The stories those young men told me of the extravagance of col­ lege students in the United States, if true, were enough to make us out of conceit with the higher schools of our own country. Compare the simple rooms of Cambridge students, and Cambridge professors^ too, for that matter, with some of the suites of our own college "swelldom." And yet what a procession of great men these little rooms with their narrow staircases, low doors and diamond-paned leaden window casements, have seen.
