Where Beauty Crows.

The great beauties who take the
social prizes in marriages are almost
all bred in the lesser towns, where a
less conventional society gives women
snatch at freedom in girlhood.
You don't find them growing upwith
calisthenics, health lifts and mas
sage useto do theirexercise for them.
You all remember the painful story
OF q girl in city home, surrounded
by every care who was strangled in
the cords of her "health pull' one
evening. SCARCELY more pitiful is her
fate than that of girls brought up to
depend on lush substitutes for work
and exercise if they live. A sick,
an9mlc woman, unused, unable to
care for herself and all Others, is the
most pitiable, repugnant obec in
creation. You seldom find lasting
beauty who has not had semi-Greek
education of outdoor life and exer-
else behind it.
Take the beautiful Cummings, who
ran wild in their Irish country home
till their calculating mamma had
raked and scraped enough to take
them to Dublin and thence to Lon.
don. The Cummings were unlicensed
hoydens, but theirraces over the hills
gave them matchless compilations.
Later still, Mrs. Lnagtry took her
beauty course, rowing the Jersey
lanes with her brothers in soft, pure
sea air, living on peaches and coarse
bread, with just as little OF lessons as
sufficed to fit her for London draw
ing rooms.-Ladies' Home Journal.

Mental Capacity.

There are many interesting facts
which make one believe that the
greater the extent Of brain surface in
a man, or, to put it q little different
ly, the more the folds and deeper the
creases between them, the greater
are the mental powers. And just
here it becomes apparent that 70
judge of the extent of the entire brain
surface by the size of the head, or by
the extent of the superficial irregular
surface which is covered by the skull.
without any regard to the number of
folds of their depth, is to fall into an
absurd error Here we begin to see
how baseless the old phrcnology
~ is. A little brain with many deep
folds may really, when spread OUT,
have larger surface than a large
brain with few shallow folds; and a
so-called bump or elevation on the
apparent surface of the organ, If it
produces corresponding elevation
on the head, which it frequently fails
to do, will indicate nothing regard
ing the number of folds or the depth
of the creases which lie about it. So
that it may be stated without hesi-
tation that from the size or shape of
the head no conclusion whatever
can be made as to the extent of sur
face of the brain, and, consequently,
no conclusion can be reached regard
ing the mental capacity.

rally enough / had many unusual
and amusing experiences. The
schoolroom was che second floor Of
two story log building, the lower
floor being used for grocery store.
Every thing in the schoolroom was
of the most primitive kind. The
seats we're long pine benches. There
were no desks, no blackboards
and not an inch OF plastering in the
whole building. There was nothing
between the grocery store and the
schoolroom but loosely laid floor
of unseasoned pine that became
looser as il seasoned. IL was, un-
fortunately, full OF knot holes, and
whenever n customer came into the
store for a bar of SOAP or a pound OF
sugar. the school heard the entire
transaction, and as the merchant
was IA very loquacious man We often
heard some funny things.
The schoolroom water pail was
kept on a pine box at one end OF tho
room aud accidentally overturned
good many times that winter, and,
strangely enough, the boys sitting
near il could never tell just how these
accidents happened, but they always
occurred when there were more than

throw the school into paroxysms OF

light and his hair so straight that few
persons would dream that he had negro
blood in his veins. Jangston is also
lisht-comnlexioned. He parts his dark,
wavv hair in the middle, and might
easily be mistaken for Hermann, the
prestitligitateur. He secured a seat at
the side of Mr.. Cheatham, the colored
