Chin.

A pointed or round chin indicates congo
NAL love. A person with such a chin will
have a beat ideal, and will not be easily
satisfied with commonplace men or women.
The extended chin indicates a great desire
to be loved-a hunger and thirst for affection.
When very large in woman, she may over
step the bounds of Ell luette and make love
to one thai pleases her. a.",
A narrow, square chin indicates a desire to
love, and is more common among women.
The broad, square chin indicates ardent
love, with great steadiness and ~permanence
OF affection. -@1
The retreating chin is indicative OF the
want of attachment, and but little ardor in
love. ..a Ht'- Ea 'H9.
The chin, in its length and breadth, indi-
Gates self-control, self-will, resolution, decis-
ion, etc.
Carnivorous animals have their upper jaw
projecting, while all those of the gramnivor-
Gus nature have the lower jaw projecting.
In men with a projecting jaw will be found
very large destructiveness, and a love Of
animal food; and when the lower jaw pro.
jects, then the love for vegetable food.

abomnable hay rack, where : horse has to
roach up and pull the hay. down. 6lling his
mane, forstop, and, the worst Of all, his eyes
with hay seed, chat or whatever may be
! mixed with tho provender. These traps are
met with nearly everywhere throughout the
land. These throw the horse in the most
unnatural position for feeding, . the natural
position is to reach down and pull up, and
not reach up and pull down, as these hay
racks make him do. In reaching up to eat
1t exposes the foretop, face and eyes to seed,
chat and dirt, which OH getting on the head
once is liable to get into the eye at any time.
We will speak now Of the abuse that holse-
men resort to in controlling : horse. The
worst of all Is striking him over the head
with a leather strap, your fist, aclub or whip.
Shame on man that would dare to club
over the head the noble0t Of creation next to
man! But l am sorry to say that we find .
great many so-called good horsemen that take
delight in sitting on their wagon seat and
trying to see how close they can send the
point of the cracker to the horses ear, or
strike some particular spot on the back of the
head, neck or shoulders. But my word for
It, a man who will practice this comes to
grief sooner or later. Instinct tells the horse
to be careful of his head, and especially his
eyes, for when they are gone that ends his
seeing, as they can never be restored or new
ones put in, as we all know. Therefore,
never strike q horse about the head, but on
the other hand always be mild in handling
the head. The number of horses eyes hurt
by slipping the collar over the head would
surprise us all If known. A horses head,
with a good eye setting Out boldly on a square
face, is a hard thing to slip a collar over
without rubbing and bruising the eye. Next,
we have the stable to contend with, and it
produces more weak eyes than any other one
thing we know of. The gases arising from
the body are ruinous to the eye. Let a man
stand over a pile of warm decomposing
manure and see how quickly it affects the
eyes. But he never thinks about the horse
in his closely confined stall with no v~entilla-
ton either above or below 10 carry away this
poison. Set your stables up from the ground,
give ventilation underneath so as to copfine
this gas and compel it TO rise through the
cracks in the floor. Also put good v~entilla-
ton high above your horses heads, to cause
a current of air to carry off this poison as it
generates. Always give the horse plenty Of,
light, but not through a small hole /; make it
large 80 as not to condense the rays as they
come through a small opening. Never white
wash a stall, as white is very bad on the eyes.
Take a sheet of white paper and hold it be-
fore your ewes a short time and see its effects:
but You can turn your head and look away
from it, while the horse cannot, as he is tied
up with a white sheet all around him.
Never whitewash a stall, but always use blue,
as it will never hurt the eyes.-Dr. Cole, in
Ohio Farmer. 49, .r..

women's Growing INDEPENDENCE II Me-

..E.TH r.F % .r+# aaf.- .a
Perhaps it is because of the growing scarcity
of available men, perhaps it is because Of the
increasing independents of the fair sex
whatever the sreason, it is a fact patent to all
who frequent places Of amusement that
ladies venture abroad in tile evening without
male escorts far more frequently than they
did ten years ago, and it is greatly to the
credit of our cities that they can do 50 with
inpunity. A lady would hardly 60 out alone
Of an evening; but. if accompanied by an
other OF her sex, especially 1t one of the
pair be tolerably along in years-it is not
necessary to give exact tigures-both feel
comparatively safe. The result is that young
men are not quite so much of a necessity as
they once were, and are made to feel that
they are no longer Indispensable. Time was
when a young man, simply because he was a
man, was permitted to feel that he was a very
important creature; but, now that a male
escort can with propriety be dispensed with
on occasion, he has been made TO descend
from his high horse. He was wontt to impose
his cheap horse talk " and slang on his lady
friends, and was permitted to parade lis con-
ceit and ignorance, simply because he was q
necessary evil ; but times have changed all
that, and he now often binds that, unless he
can command respect by bis knowledge, his
character, Or his g-ntlemanly department,
his room lie considered more desirable than
bis company. Ali OF which is having anex-

CAPT. ROBERT Fl. BuRToN.-The couduc>
tor is the most prominent railroad official with
whom travellers generally are brought into
contact. He is an important parsonage, and
there are conductors, some as rough and un-
couth as the outside of che smut burr,
others as polite and affable as French dan
cling master. We have in our eye our mind 8
eye, conductor who belongs decidedly to
the latter class, and the other night coming
up from Baltimore, when the good >natured
face of Captain Burton shed his radiant
smile upon us, we moved up, and making
room for him learned something of his life,
his past life, as a railroad man. Capt. Robt.
II Burton, of Baltimore, aged 63. is the
Oldest conductor on the B. & o. K. r. He
commenced railroading in 1915 as brake
man, attending, we have no doubt, to his ar
duous duties of locking after the brakes,
lamps, stoves, bcll-rope. ventilators and
water coolers in perfectly satisfactory man.
ner. The Captain had charge of the train
engine and one car-that carried President
Folks message from Washington to Balti-
more in 1915. Thomas McKinly, now in
the timing business in Baltimore, was engi-
neer. The trip was made in one hour and
four minutes, including one stoppnge at
White Oak Bottom for water. The name of
the engine was "P. Gassis," and it had only
two driving wheels. Tho i. & o. road at
that time was. compared with itself now, but
a pigmy-its few miles of road has increased
to thousands, and its iron fingers have
stretched out year by year, opening up the
forests and bringing life and energy with its
progress. Thirty -four years of railroad life,
with it's constant hustle and STIR its push and
crush and rush continually without rest, will
either wear out most men turn them into
chronic old grumblers; but the years,
although they have silvered his hair and
traced crows feet on his face, seem to have
left to Captain Burton the best part of his
youth. May his hearty, happy tones, and
the warm grasp of his hand greet the travel
ers on the road for many years to come.
