NO MIRRORS IN BARBER SHOP

Speaking of the piny of Hamlet

They twitter and fidget, and get ex

the operator so nervous that he Is
sometimes prevented from turning out
what he considers a neat Job.
The Idea of mlrrorless surgery for
,(he mutilation of female heads seems
to have originated up Boston way.
When the bobbing crate first struck
New York barber shops were fitted up
for women with a special eye to ab\in>

TO MAR ST. MICHEL'S BEAUTY
8lltlng Up of the Bay Is Ovualng
Much Anxifty to the People
of Normandy.
The steady slltlngup of the Hay of
St. Michel Is a cause of much anx
iety to the good people of Normandy.
It threatens to spoil the beauty of the
famous Mont St. Michel's, which at
present Is linked to the mainland only
by an artificial causeway. Formerly
the Mont, whlc)i In the course of Hie
centuries has been by turns a I>ruld
Ical shrine, a Benedictine abbey, and
a state prison, and which, since Its
restoration by Violet-le-Duc, Is Jea
lously. preserved as an historical
monument, was as Inaccessible at
high tide, except by boat, as Its Corn
ish counterpart, St. Michael's Mount
still Is. But .the causeway enabled a
light railway to run to the very foot
of the Mont, nnd this causeway Is
stated by experts to ..be one of the
great causes of the silting up, which
It la predicted, will eventually make
the Mont just part of the ordinary
coastline.

Nevertheless, the novelty handbag Is
about the cutest thing to arrive this

with light from a tiny electric bulb,

Tangled Tongues.
Spoonerisms, like the poor, we have
always with us. Two new and rather
good ones came to our attention re
cently. The other day a Chicago wom
an, testifying against her husband in
her divorce uult, declared: "He loads,
me, his awful wife, a lawful ufe."
There was a loud titter In the <(ourt,
and blushing with embarrassmentshe
hastened to correct herself. N>
The other concerns a young woman
who was dining at a strange house?
On the table wps t^dish of boiled
onions, and ' whciV her hostess was
serving these and remarked that, of
course, she liked them, the young

"Oh, yes, Inderal; if there is one veg

Took a Long Journey.
Last fall an inhabitant of Osthelm,
Alsace, captured a swallow nesting
under the gable of the roof. He re
leased it with the following message
attached on parchment: "During the
summer of 1921 I lived with a farmer
at Ostheim. He would be glad to learn
where I have spent the winter when I
return." Tfca bird returned n^ently
to its Alsatian home, bearing the fol
lowing inscription : "I have been stay

the Island of Martinique, who salutes

Surprising.
