A prominent lawyer, famous alike
for his wit and his bald head, strolled
Into the barber shop and took his ac
customed chair. '
"I think I'll have a haircut, Joe," he
remarked.
The barber looked at him, slapped
the beautiful pink and shiny dome of
his customer's skull with mock tender
nesti and gave a loud laugh.
"Why, man," Bald he, "you don't
need a haircut today. What you
want's a shine."

* /* elder brother lectually in his prime, and morally there was
for their display. These were not shown by mere
personal heroism, though his, as we have already
said, was of the highest order, but" In a thorough
equipment with all the resources of military skill
and science, In the quick perception of the adap
tation of means to ends, and in the cool discrimi
nation of a Judgment which became both prompt
er and steadier Instead of being ruffled or con
fused under the pressure of difficulty, or the
stimulus of danger.
"He was daring without rashness, and deliber
ate without hesitation. He never led his men
Into needless danger, but never shrank from any
risk when necessary, and had the eye of an eagle,
in discernment of the crisis, when risk was re
quired, As a leader he commanded the unques
tioning, unshrinking confidence of his followers,
and his presence on the field was an inspiration.
The skill to handle bodies of men was combined
with the magnetism that controls the wills of In
dividuals, two of the most essential requisites for
the command of the volunteer troops of which
American armies are comprised."
Soon after the close of the Black Hawk war.
a regiment of dragoons was formed and added to
the regular service. -Henry Dodge of lowa was
made the colonel of the new organization. Mr.
Davis was promoted to the position of first lieu
tenant of one of the companies, and still further
honored by being appointed Immediately there
after adjutant of the regiment—a choice that In
dicates better than anything else what manner of
man he waa.
When Mr. Davta was brought face to face with
the burning question of 1832-33, the problem of
state versus national loyalty, and the rumor that
the regnment to which he belonged would prob
ably be sent to Charleston, 8. C., In event of open
hostilities, his own words best set forth his posi
tion: 'Then, much as I valued my commission,
much as I desired to remain In the army, and dis
approving as much as I did the remedy resorted
to, that commission would have been torn to tat
ters before It would hsvo been used In civil wsr
with the atate of South Carolina."
Colonel Dodge, with a select company of hla
dragoons, was sent In 1834 to Port Gibson, on the
borders of Arkansas and the Indian Territory,
near Red river, Lieutenant Davta accompanying
the detachment The policy of the government
to collect the remnants of the many tribes of
Indians, both southern and northern, In this far
off portion of the country, had been developing
since the transfer of the Cherokees and Creeks
from western Georgia, upper Alabama and Mis
sissippi to that reservation, and tt Waa here that
the young lieutenant passed his laat years In the
United States army. There waa no longer need
of his being In service, he having served more
than the term of years required to repay the gov
ernment for his training at West Point. After a
year and a half at Port Gibson, he tendered his
resignation on June 30. 18SS, and aevered his con
nection with the army, whoae service he had cer
tainly loved. He had manifested decided capacity
for successful military command, and his talent
for management and for ready decision In emer
gencies had been clearly devedoped. Hla habits
had been temperate and self-restrained. with *
tendency to book* and tha scholarly life.
Than followed a new life tor a short time hi
Joseph, to
whom he was bound by the dearest ties of affec
tion, and arrangements were Bpeedily made by
which the younger brother and his bride should
come Into possession of a thousand acres adjoin
ing his own estate, where a house was built and
land cleared for the coming cotton season. The
husband and wife began life together resolutely.
Mr. Davis worked with his own hands, and di
rected personally and through his trusty foreman,
James PeJbberton, the labor of the fields. A
promising harvest was approaching, when, as Is
usual, the malarial season came on. Not being
acclimated, and to escape the added dangers of
living on freshly-cleared land he left the respon
sibility of the estate to his beloved brother. Jo
seph Davis, and moved down the river with hi*
wife to the home of a sister, Mrs. Luther Smith,
near Bayou Sara. In southeastern Louisiana. It
was not long before both fell aerloualy 111, and In
September, 1836, Mrs Davis died. In the ahadow
of his sorrow Mr. Davis slowly recovered from'
his severe illness and returned in mid-October to
the lonely plantation, only to leave It again in
search of health and obllrlcyi of affliction. Ha
visited New Orleans In tha early winter, whonco
he sailed to Havana and the Island of Cuba—(he
resort of the Invalid and grief-stricken of that
day.
In 1843 Mr. Davis became the candidate of the
Democratic party Tor a seat In the legislature of
the state of Mississippi. In February, 1845, Mr.
Davis married Miss Varlna Howell of Natchex,
the granddaugnter of Governor Howell of New
Jersey, and daughter of William B. Howell. In
the course of the same year he was elected»to
congress (as a representative from the state "s(
large"), and took his"seat in the house soon after
the opening of the first session of the Twenty
ninth congress; In December, 1845. *
Mr. Davis was a devoted disciple of John C.
Calhoun, and a statesman after the same order.
When the president, not congress, settled the
Texas embroglio by causing the American army,
under Gen. Zachary Taylof, to threaten the Mex
ican position on the Rio Grande and hostilities
followed as a matter of course, from the White
Hoiise the word came to congress early In April
that war .already existed, and called for troops.
Calhoun arose in his place In the senate and de
manded to know the authority of the executive
In usurping the rightful power* of congress. Mr.
Davis made a similar protest, at the same time, In
the house. The South Carolinian continued to
arraign the president's policy, but Mr. Davis,
despite his admiration for Mr. Calhoun, yielded
his support to war and deprecated all criticism of
Colonel Taylor and his men for their unnecessary
advance. It would appear that war was neces
sary for the annexation of Texas, and having
favored the war. Mr. Davis was selected to com
mand the first regiment enlisted tn the state of
Mississippi, called the Mississippi Rifles. Before
leaving his seat in congress, Mr. Davis had In
sisted that his regiment should be armed with
rifles. Later, when secretary of war, he Intro
duced into the regular artny the improved guns
he now used on the Mexican war. H* set ont tor.
toew Orleans, the rendesrons of his regiment,
early In June, 1841 After a short stay at "Briar
field." where he procured his trustworthy servant
aad horses, he continued Ms Journey, embarking
- -A . •
rarely to be found a more commanding character
In the country.
In March, 1857, Mr. Davta re-entered the senate.
This was during the admlntatratlon of Mr. Bu
chanan—during part of the time Mr. Davis was
seriously ill, and at the cloae of the aeaaion. 1868,
he made a visit to the New England states, be
ing received everywhere with the hlgheat marks
of courteay and popular esteem.
Mr. Davis, when aroused, was a master of ora
tory, of which he gave brilliant diaplaya In the
senate and on the hustings; Indeed, there we re
occasions when he arose to the majestic, and
caused the minds of his hearera to revert to simi
lar appeals of Rlenil and Demoathenea. In the
memorable debates In the aenate—lßsß-1861 —he
bore a conspicuous and commanding part. Hla
speeches of thia period exhibit anxloua premo
nition of the Impending rupture, "and when Mia
alaalppi, not as a matter of choice, but of neces
alty, resolved to aecede, and the aouthem sena
tors took formal leave of their colleagues, what
pen ahould depict their nnguish? Mr. Davla had
passed a sleepless night, due to the preaalng re
sponsibility of his course, aa well as to Illness.
Nevertheless he appeared In his accuatomed place.
The floor halls and galleries were thronged with
earnest spectators aa they had been only on
great occasions, when the voices of Webster and
Clay had resounded. Amid profound alienee Mr.
Davis aroae to bid hia adieu—the whole world
knew that It waa too late for aught else. He
spoke In simple chaate English, devoid of flowers
of rhetoric, but In auch sorrowful and convincing
manner that many a tear fell upon cheeka unac
customed to the molature of emotion. It was not
difficult for that generation to understand tM
principles which ac}uated him.
The convention 6f Mississippi, after ordaining
the withdrawal of the state from the Union, had
adopted an ordinance providing for the levy of a
force of 10.000 men and conferring the chief com
mand upon Mr.-. Davta, with the rank of major
general. This he accepted and hastened home
from-Washington to make arrangements tor rait
ing and organising the troops. It was Mi destiny
to enact a part yet more conaplcuoua than hither
to In the aaddest drama of modern history. -War,
the greatest of moderiP wan, the greatest in aosae
retopects "known In the history of the human
race." It lasted four years and a little over;
marked throughout by sanguinary conflict* with
heroic exploits on both sides, all of which have
been duly chronicled tn proper plaoe. When Mr.
Jefferson Davis, after a short Illness, died In N4w
Orleans Dec. 6, 1888, North and South. Bast and
West, recognised the fact that "a great soul had
passed away." He was borne to his temporary
tomb in Metalrle cemetery by the governors of
nine states, and during the winter folio wins the
legislatures of the South held formal memorial
sessions. -Never waa more universal homage ren
dered to a departed chleftnln. Four years later,
by request of the people of Richmond, Va., and
of the South generally, hla remains were removed
to Hollywood cemetery and given final sepulture.
In Richmond the people collected from all parts
of the country and listened to fond eulogies of
men who had known him boat ▲ fitting status
was erected to hla memory representing him la

Brooklyn, N. Y„ Oct. 9,1913. "I was
troubled with two or three pimplee
coming out on my chin. In a week or
so my whole faoe was covered with
them. Friends advised me to aae dif
ferent lotions and salves. I tried thesL
but they did me little good, if any. I
finally washed the pimples wi(n Ree
inol Soap and applied Eesinol Oint
ment before going to bed. In the morn
ing I found the swelling gone down,
and the inflammation gone from the
pimples. I tried this treatment for
about a week, and found that most of
the pimplee had disappeared. I kept
the treatment up for about a month,
and then my faoe was clear of all
pimplee. I have used Reslnol Soap
since aad find that the pimplee do not
come back." (Signed) Walter A.
