-LIFE: One Reason— And Others The illustration was reproduced from a photograph of two Star blades held to- gether by their own magnetic attraction. Magnetic quality adds to the life, the elasticity of a blade. Every Star blade is heavily magnetized. This is one of the reasons why they give such smcoth, clean, comfortable shaves. There are other reasons, Star blades are forged from the finest Shefheld steel, They are hollow ground and concaved—actually perfect blades of the old style, heavy pattern, made to fita safety frame. They are sold singly, not by the dozen, for one blade will shave for years instead of days. We have a booklet that tells more about these blades and the Star Safety Razor as a whole. Write for it.

Safety Razor One Omitted Detail Notwithstanding all the complaints about the carelessness of the ordina waiter and all the jokes about the n nificence of the head wanter, every one knows that the business of the “ knight of the napkin” is not an easy At any rate, in a story told by Seymour Hicks, of a New York restau- nt, one must be glad that the waiter sot his “innings.” ing in my usual corner « this restaurant, I heard a much-har. fer score heavily off a tiresome cus- tomer who was ordering oysters. The conversation that took place was the following—the wretched waiter turning to go and execute the order and being ach time: er, I want a dozen blue- ter, you'll see that “re not done too ch.” Oh, and waiter— Yes, sir.” Will you see that they put a squeeze of lemon in each shell “Yes, sir.” “Oh, and waiter, just the smallest amount of butter over them when you serve them.” “Yes, sir.” “And waiter “Yes, sir” “Don't forget the pepper and sal This last remark was too much for the poor knight of the napkin, Turn- ing back again, of his own frce will, he said: And, “Well?

A Hint to American Magnates A baseball “grand stand" which may he attached to high fences, and save the observer the price of admission to the park, is described, with illustration, in the July Popular ‘Mechanics Ma: It isan English device, and very constructed. HY stop thei Couldn't one get a few more “devices” from Eng- land or anywhere else? One for ab- stracting steaks from butcher shops would be a godsend to the economical housekeeper, or it might be possible to modify this one so that it could be at- tached to the rear of taxicabs and make it easy to save the price of a ride. Surely no more than a hint to the wide-awake American inventor is needed.
