Passengers on the car leaving this
city one afternoon were treated to a
pretty eight at the rock cat below
Hgypt Brook on the Derby line when
three large deer raced ahead of the fast
running car for over 300 yards, leav
ing the tracks when the car got so
close that the tender touched the
hind legs of the last deer.
Motorman J. L. McGulre came upon
(the
deer suddenly as the car rounded
a sharp turn In the rock cut and
sounded his gong. The deer stood
still for a moment and McGuire put
on his brakes, as he was afraid that
he would strike them. He blew the
air whistle and the three were off in a
jiffy, jwiniflff awj jt the car.at Jgll

•peed. ScQulre then followed' while
the passengers aboard the car
crowded into the front end to watch
the deer. They ran gracefully to
gether, but could not get off the tracks
as there Is a very steep declivity on
the right hand side and the bank ran
op too steep on the left to permit them
to get oft the right of way.
Finally they came to a spot where
they could leave and one after the
other they jumped Into the under*
brush on the uphill side. The last
deer lingered so long by the side of
the track that the fender brushed its
heels as It leaped aside.
Two of the deer were fair sized
while the third was one of the largest
seen by the trolleymen In their experi
ence along that line. Deer are rather
common in the Beacon Falls section
of the run and they are frequently
seen by early morning trolley crews.
Harry Hogan, conductor of the car,
said that although he has seen many
deer on the trolley tracks in that
section, these seemed less afraid of
the car than any.—Waterbury Re

BROTHERS HORRID THINGS
Dinner for the Eminent German
Count Was Suceesful Until
They Spoiled |t,
The Jones girl bad been abroad and
had come home cultivated. The Jones
family bore it with a resigned pride
until they learned that the eminent
Baron Hofsunelgener, recently ar
rived in Harlem from the upper cir
cles of Berlin, was coming to dine.
"We've lived twenty-seven years
in Harlem and this hasn't happened
before," said Mrs. Jones. '1 feel as
though I didn't know Just where to
begin."
"Begin with the oysters," said
Jane, "as usual. Only father must
speak to the boys. I don't want the
baron to acquire a crass opinion of
American youth."
The night of the baron's dinner
came. Mrs. Jones appeared in old lace
and a nervous expression, Mr. Jones
onduly reminiscent of the time he
met Carl Schurz and the boys solemn
and slick in their tuxedos and silent
as graven Images. Evidently father
had spoken to the boys.
As for the baron, he was all plump
pinkness and appetite. During tha
oysters he made one remark. "Out!"
said he. During the soup he made
one remark: "Gut!" said he. Dur.
lng the fish he made one remark:
"Ach, Out!" During the roast he
repeated himself: "Ach, Out!" But
with the salad the eminent baron
varied his refrain. "Ach, gut, gut!"
said he.
Then the boys broke their silence.
In chorus they said: "Pass It to him
again."
"And what is the use of being
cultivated," said the Jones girl after
ward. "What is the use when you
have brothers T"—New Tork Evening

"No, my hair lsnt really thin, as hair
goes agreed the girl as she settled
herself In the hairdresser's chair and
helped tuck the white Mb around her
neck. "But It's so line! It grows won.
derfully for curly hair—you know,
they say curly hair Is never long—but
mine really Is surprisingly long, if only
It would stay In! You see, it comes
out dreadfully—I must have a wonder
fully healthy scalp, or I'm sure I'd be
bald at the rate It comes out, except
for the rapidity of its growth!
"All I want these treatments for is
to make It stop falling out! Do you
think they'll do the work? I want to
try one or two first, and If they seem
to do me good, then I'll take the wholej
course. So you see, you'd better glvei
me a particularly good treatment this
time.
"My hair oily? No, never! Yes, it
may seem slightly so Just now, for
I've been using a tonic that makes it
that way, but you ought to see it when
it's Just washed! It's so fluffy—it
looks as if I had oceans of It—that's
one consolation. I think it's better to
have fine hair and not have so much,
|but have It fluffy, than have coarse,'
straight hair that never looks decent,
idon't you? Oh, yours is straight, Isn't
It? But then yours isn't very coarse,!
jjs it? Most people haven't very fine
pair, have they? But then, I suppose
they have other redeeming features.
I "I hope this .tonic won't make my
jhair greasy—I can't bear that! If it
,does I'll nev«r come again! Don't you,
think you ought to rub it until it's dry?
I've heard that artificial dryers aren't
good for the talr. Well, we'll see by
the results. Of course, I don't expect
impossibilities from this first treafcj
jment but it ought to tell a little about
the final result
"Oh, is that little thing the same
you use for facial massage? I never
had a facial massage—Just run it over
my face, will you, so I can know how
It feels? Oh, isn't that delicious}'
Just run it across my forehead a few
itlmes, will you? You know, I'm get
ting wrinkles in my forehead! Did
(you ever hear of such a thing in a per
json of my age? I know I worry a
great deal, but that comes of having
buch a conscientious disposition! I'm
always assuming responsibilities that
'are really too heavy for my years! Of
course, you know I'm not bragging—I
truly don't think it's anything to brag
of ,do you—giving one's life to others
and using up one's vitality on little
things, when one should, I suppose,
keep all one's energies for one's own
affairs!
"But, then, there are always somq
who have to assume the burdens of
those who are selfish and who think
that they are to be kept for some big
work, without worry! My sister is
that way—she imagines that Just be
cause she teaches kindergarten she is
doing something important—'training
the future men and women,' she calls
it—and she's always studying for it,
and she absolutely hardly ever goes
out with me. She's awfully selfish
that way. But I have to forgive her,
for, of course, when she doesn't go I
have the use of her things—and, work
ing as she does, she can have so many
lovely things that I personally could
hardly afford.
"Oh, aren't you going to run that'
thing over my head any more? Why,
I thought that was the principal part
of the treatment—electricity—and I do
Just love it, it's so nice and Boothlng
I could go to sleep! Just do It a while
longer. I'm sure my hair needs it!
Oh, what If there are other appoint
ments? Can't they wait a while? I
had to! Remember, my whole course
depends upon this first treatment, so
you'd best make it thorough.
"Now, don't comb it fussy—I detest
fussily dressed hair. Just neat and
simple and pretty. Oh, mercy, not
like that! Why, that makes me look
Just like an old maid! I want it coil
ed and brought low in the back, in
three of those rolls, but not Just like
shop girls wear them—I want some
thing original. No, I hate puffs,
they're all out of style!
"I think I won't take the whole
course here, the assistants are too
Impertinent!. What's that? No, I do
not expect to have a scalp treatment
and a facial massage and my hair
dressed in the newest fashion, all for
fifty cents! I think I sh*U find some
one who is not so mercenary. Good
morning!"
House of the Dalai Lama.
The Dalai Lama's late temporary
residence at Kailmpong, the Bhutan
Durbar house, is now occupied by
Raja UJen Dorjee's sister, the Kazlni
Wangmola. The Lama's three rooms,
the audience chamber, sitting room
and bedroom, are Just as he left them.
Hundreds of butter lamps lie about
on tables and mantel Shelves and, the
windows being closed, the smqil of
rancid butter is sickening. A large
wine is Befog erected In the Lama's
bedroom. This room will thus be
come a kind of holy of holies In the
estimation of the northern Buddhists.
