CAR MAGlc.-The Erie (Pa.) Dis
patch tells an elephantine railroad story.
A westward bound express train was
suddenly stopped by the engineer in
answer to a stroke of the bell, to which
a rope was attached that ran through
the cars. On receiving the usual {" all
right from the conductor he proceeded,
but in a minute or two was again check
ed in the same manner. In answer to
the conductors query why he broke up,
the engineer said he was warned by the
bell, which the former declared he had
not rung. Some Angry and mutually
accusative phrases were indulged III for
time, and finally 4 watch was set in
each car to trap the supposed malicious
person who Kindred the progress of the
train. The check-string was pulled
finally got his anger up to the highest
pitch, and would not heed it. AS soon
as the train approached her destination,
however, the patent brakes Operated
by the back action Of the hell-rope) sud-
denl Y were let down and the train came
to a dead halt yet no culprit had been
discovered by the vigilant detectives.
A search was thereupon instituted in
the freight cars, and in one ofthem ba
by elephant, the property of an itinerant
proprietor, was found, which
had peen amusing itself by winding the
slack string around its trunk. This is
the first instance where trunk IN bag
gage car has been used for similar
purpose.

LARGE EYES. Large eyes have al
ways been admired, especially in wo-
men, and may be considered essential
to the highest order of beauty, in almost
every description of which, from Helen
Iof Troy, to any modern heroine, they
Hhold a prominent place. We read Of
g large spiritual eyes, and " ewes loving
large" and of" little, sparkling lady
3eyes," to which the epthets d" spiritual"
*and " loving" are never applied. An
4-Arab expresses his idea of the beauty of
a gazelle. This is the burden of his song.

large eyes give us the impression of be-
S1ng" wide awake, anil ready for action,
while small-eyed people have more gen

Temperament or habit of body.
DR.. Redfiel observes that persons
with large eyes have very lively emo
tons, think very rapidly, and speak
very fast, unless there be preponder-
ance OF the phlegmatic temperament.
or persons with small eyes the reverse
is true. The former are quick and spon
