His Royal 'Ighness.

The scene was first-class carriage
on the Great Western Railway. The
date need not be mentioned There
were no ladies in the carriage. One of
the passengers took out his cigar-case,
and, giving look of inquiry, but not
making any remark, lit up, and vigor-
ously pulled away AS he progressed
toward the end of his cigar he noticed
n look of great irritation on the face of
his visa Wis. II am afraid. SIR" said
the smoker, hurriedly, that my cigar
annoys YOU" "It does, sir; it annoys
me excessively" 81 am sure | beg
your PARDON" said the gentleman, and
threw his cigar out of the window,
That's all very WE'LL" said his fellow
passenger, "but l mean to give you in
charge directly l get TO Bath. You
were perfectly aware that this is not a
smoking-carriage, and mean TO de-
fend the rights of passengers" II
am really very sorry, sir; but took it
for granted that there was no objcc-
tion." 81 made up my mind, SIR"
was the dogmatic reproach, "soon after
we left Shindon, that l would give you
in charge the first opportunity" Then
there was an awkward pause, and
presently the offender said Perhaps
you will take my card. l happen 10
hold public position, and should like
to avoid any disturbance" 81 don't
want your card, SIR" "But you had
better look at it." The aggrieved pas
senger looked at It contemptuously, but
it was the card of royal Duke! Things
now went on pleasantly; but before he
left the carriage the gentleman ex-
pressed a hope That his Royal Highncss
would not think that he had acted
wrongly. THAT is point we need
not discuss" said his Royal Highness.

Just as G. b. & @. train stopped
at Galesburg one day recently, and
everything was still for a moment, a
man sitting near the forward end of

in terrible anguish. Some of the pas
sengers went over TO him and found
him speechless. One of the men pull
ed out flask of brandy, and two
others prying open his teeth, forced
about half a pint of the liquor down

Reading the Eyes.

According to a fanciful American
phrenologist round-eyed persons see
much, live much in the senses, but
think less. Narrow-eyed persons, on
the other hand, see less, but think and
feel more intensely. 1t will be OBJ
served that the eyes of children are
open and round. Their whole life is
to receive impressions. 1t is only
when childhood is maturing toward
manhood and womanhood that
thought comes if it comes at all.
But what most leads to reflection ?
Experience. Our errors, our short
comings, our failures-these teach us
to think before we act, to consider
each step, to weigh every motive.
When, therefore, the upper eyelid-
for it is that which has the greatest
amount of mobility--droops over the
eye, it indicates not merely reflection,
but something painful to reflect about.
Hence the length or dropping Of the

upper eyelid betokens confession and
penitence.
The dropping of half of the eyelids
from the outer angle to the center in
dictates the disposition to confess ones
faults to parents or seniors, to "fath-
er confessor."
The dropping of half of the eyelids
from the inner angle to the center be-
tokens the disposition to repent and TO
"do works ment for repentance"
Closely allied to these signs are those
of prayerfulness and humility. The
former is indicated by the muscle
which turns the eye directly down
ward, as represented in the pictures of
the Madonna. Prayerfulness is usual
ly large in. connection with that of
penitence, the reason of which is that
between the faculties Of penitence and
humility there is the same close con-
nection as between confession and
prayer. One who has habitually
more prayer than humility has the eye
tnrned somewhat upward, part of the
iris is little covered by the upper
eyelid and so as to leave a slight space
between the iris and the lower lid.
The reverse is true Of one who has
more humility than prayer.
The faculty of truth-that is, the
love of it's indicated by the muscle
which surrounds the eye, causing folds
and wrinkles. Justice is indicated
by the muscle which causes the per-
pendicular wrinkles between the eye
brows. Fullness and wrinkles under
the eye, for which some persons are
remarkable, indicate love for mathe-
matical accuracy; and curving up
ward from the outer angle of the eye
and eyebrows indicate probity or per-
sonal truthfulness. There are three
degrees of the faculty of justice. The
first is kind of exactness, or strict
honesty in small money matters,
which some people would call close
ness, and is indicated by a singular
perpendicular wrinkle or line between
the eyebrows. The second is a dis
position to require justice in others,
and is indicated by two perpendicu-
lar lines or wrinkles, one on each side
of the center-a very common sign.
The third degree is conscientiousness,
or the disposition to apply the rule of
justice to ones self, and is indicated
by three or more wrinkles or lines, es-
pecially noticeable extending above
the eyebrow when the muscle is in ac-
ton. The love of commanders, in
masters and teachers, and in those
generally who are fond of exercising
authority. In those who are wanting
in the power to command and have
no desire for responsibility, this signal
is also absent. The faculty of COM
mand frequently acts with that part
of justice which reprimands or re-
quires others to do right, and both
together produce that frowning and
lowering brow which is so terrible to
evil doors or to those who love to be
approved rather than condemned
