HUMOROUS THIEVES,
Many of the light-fingered gontry are a smart with their heads as they we' with their hands. A man must have a fund of natural kunior and peculiar philosophy almut him to pause in the midst of his burgling operations in order to write to the one where he robs.
Some limongo the house of a New Yorker was braken into during the night. On the following morning evidences were not want-. ing the the thief had had what would doubtless be called 'a good time,' A cash box had boon rifled of its contents and u fair cargo of plate was a vanished asset. In addition, three or four cigar ends were atrewn upon the floor and the liquor decai- tors were emptied. On the table was a penciled note, as follows Nearly poison- ed. If the coja ain't no bettor in the cigars, it's a poor cop.
A well-known Coney Island restaurat was ontered by thieves during the night. i They were evidently disappointed as re-i

Pro bono publico."
Some years ago. a. Chicago man was sur- prisud on receiving the following note :
'Dog Sir-I have just stolen your Sun'a overgent, and found in the pocketa a loaded, revolver and a care, from which I gather that your son tends to destroy himself this vory evening. As your address wa given on the can, it was possible to ward you in tim. Your son is now sitting in Fa restaurant. As I may be said to have earned the overcat and the silk hand- kerchief it contained by the apoitant scr vico I have rendered you, I trust I shall be Joft in undisturbed possession of those articles.*
WITH BAYARIAN found his son, who afterwards confessed

The man hurried to the restaurant and
that it bad bear his intention to blow out His brains.
Some of the fraternity wax poelic. A pontleman, whose house was successfully Burgled and robbed of almost everything valuable, found the following verse writton
BOHEMIAN HOPS.in pensil pinned above the mantel-piece:
Unsurpassed as a tonic for the ladies. Once tried by them they will agree with the remarks of our other lady friends and continue to patronize us. For the gentlemen it is a cooling and refreshing drink. All who have tried it stand by it. We only ask one trial and will then rest on our merits.

GROWTH OF THE BEARD.
A single hair, which can support a weight of 2 ounces, is so elastic that it may ba stretched to one-third of its entire length and then regain its fortier eize and condi tion. Dr. Finans has measured the.
growth
of hair by cutting off circles about aä atch mich in diameter from the heads of healthy men, and so comparing the growth of the patches with that of the rest of the hair. He found that the growth rate generally became slower after outting that in some cases the hair on the patches grew at the same rate as the rest, but that it never grew any faster. The ordinary length of the hair on the head ranges between 20 inches and about one and a quarter yards, the latter being considered "unusually long. It has been calculated that the hair of the beard grows at the rate of one line and a half-a wook this will give a length of six and oze-half inches, in the course of a year. For a man eighty years of age, uo luga than 27 foot of beard must have fallen before the edge of the razor.
