Coming in from East Liberty or a train acre two men who appar ently were old acquaintances and who met in a jovial mood. Both men were quite gray, but each had a luxuriant head of hair. Xear then sat a stout party with a shin ing dome that was almost destitute of hirsute covering. The two friends exchanged face tious remarks about silvered loeks, then indulged in some pleasantries about the "thinning of the thatch," with casual references to doorknobs and billiard balls, much to the amusement of the passengers, but to the evident discomfiture of the bsldheaded man. The talk finally developed into an argument on the cause of baldness, and after considerable jocularitv the pair turned to the pearly pated stranger, and one said: "My friend and I have been dis cussing the cause of baldness, but we can't seem to agree. Would you mind telling as what you regard a the real cause of baldness?" The stranger wheeled about, eyed his questioners fiercely and snorted "Bra ins !" Pittsb arg Gazette. A DIAMOND STORY. The Way a Russian Princess Dispose of Her Jewels.

The man Baid he represented a friend, a wo man, who did not care to have her name disclosed. The American was firm. If he could not learn the owner's name he would not buy. The stranger said he would 6ee the woman and talk the matter over with bor. The next dav he came back and took Mr. Nissen to the woman's home. She lived in a handsome apartment in one of the most fash ionable quarters of the city. It turned out that ßhe was a Russian princess who, with her husband and her daughter, had been driven from Russia for having taken part in a nihilist movement. Of all their large property they had saved only their jewels. She opened a little safe and showed the Ameri can one of the finest collections of diamonds he had ever seen. They were worth $200,000 or $300,000. "We sell them a few at a time," them each year to give us a living. Perhaps you will wonder why ws don't sell them all and live on the interest of the money? But my husband has the gambler's spirit. The money would not last a year. Sc we part from them piecemeal. I estimate that there are enough of them to keep us twenty years, and I don't expect to live longer than that." One of tho-e diamonds forms the centerpieee of one of the most vab nable necklaces in New York. A few others are sent to this country shoe" at the onera there is never a a night when there are not some of the jewels of the exiled princess on view. New York Tribune.
