A characteristic thief's eye is one
whose lower lid is straight, while the
upper one is more OF less arched.
The straight lower lid is always no
ticeable, however, the effect being a
very cunning and foxlille expression,
Detectives usually have very notice
able eyes, keen and clear, although
one OF the very best thief takers that
the writer has ever known has big
brown eyes, as innocent in express
sion as are those of frank and hon
est schoolboy. This is his natural
expression, but when he becomes
interested in anything his lids close
and his gaze is as penetrating as that
of an eagle. --Pittsburg Press.

The Poison Of Eel.s blood.

If the conclusions drawn by late
experimenters are sound it would
seem that were an eel provided with
an apparatus to inject its own blood
into wound as the serpent injects
his venom, an eel in the mud would
be even more Objectionable than q
snake in the grass Professor, Masso,
the Italian scientist, in experiment
ing with the blood of cells has dis
covered by injecting it under the
skin of rabbits, frogs, mico, guinea
pigs, etc, that it is rank poison,
being similar IN action to the venom
of snakes of the viper kind.
The viper's bite, it is well known
causes death by paralyzing the actor
of the respiratory organs; death from
eel blood poison Is similar in nearly
every detail. Inregard to the cure Of
a person or animal injected with eel'i
blood Professor Masso says that stim
ulants usually given are wholly use
less, and that the only hope of cure
lies in tracheotomy and the artificia
pumping of air into the lungs. st

Iua,an. Who Won't Eat Rabbit.

Living almost wholly upon game
as they do, the Navajos cannot be
prevailed upon TO taste either fish OF
rabbit. / have known some very
ludicrous things to happen when
meanly mischievous Americans de-
luded Navajos into eating either OF
these forbidden dishes; and some
times there have been very serious
reatliations for the i'll hammered joke.
Rabbits are wonderfully numerous
In the Navajo country, being mo-
Tested only by feathered and -four
footed enemies; but the Indian who
would fight to tho death sooner than
touch delicious rabbit stew is greed

prairie dog. That whole region
Rbounds in dog towns, and they

A Great Discovery That slumbered.

In earlier times one of the greatest
discoveries of the age was made by a
man polishing amber, which was one
of the most highly priced of ancient
ornamental gems and found only
among the crown jewels of royalty
or in the caskets of princely rulers
and wealthy people dwelling in pal
aces. The man, it was said, felt a
mighty shock--a violent tremor
thrilled through his hand and arm
while he was rubbing the stone. He
may have exaggerated the account,
OF the authors of the. many versions
may have done so, but the facts were
there.
That man had struck the trail of
an electrical discovery. But for Gen.
turies this suggestive truth of slum-
bering power slept. No experiments
were tried-science was in u state of
repose. Experiments suggestive of
electric discoveries were tried, with
out attempts to further investigation.

what Electricians Must DO for Us.

If the electricians give us sunshine
at night they will have bestowed on
mortals godlike gift. We want,
however, something else from the
electricians, even more than that. 1t
is q something they have often tried
to give. but have never yet sue
ceeded in bestowing ON us-a practi-
cal electric motor. In the first place,
we want q motor which will super
sede horses for the traction of light
vehicles. Imagine the convenience
Of electric cabs and omnibuses AT
present, not only 5000, 900 inhabi-
tants have in London to be fed and
watered and provided with air and
light and room, but 800, 900 horses.
If these could be dispensed with, the
saving would be enormous.
Nor would the saving in keep be
the only convenience. Carriages and
carts without horses would take just
half the room now occupied. Elec-
trical traction would therefore put
an end to the congestion of traffic
which is so serious in many thorough
fares. Instead of a cab, we should
have q light armchair on wheels,
with a seat in front for the driver.
which would carry us in safety at
eight miles an hour. London Spec

When the electric light first came
into vogue great alarm was created
among the fair sex by the statement
that the new light was an active
agent in the creation of freckles.
Since then the world has grown
wiser, but still the Observation-Disclosures
Of the modern luminant in revealing
the actualities of feature and artifi-
cialities of complexion met with in
every ballroom has initiated great
Iy against its popularity. A promi-
nent New York society leader has
earned the gratitude of millions of
her sisters by the discovery that all
its Objectionable characteristics can
be removed by covering the incan-
descent lamp with pale yellow silk.
The effect on the complexion is
said to be creamy and facinating," ="
and it may be taken for granted that
henceforth the stanchest advocates
of the electric light will be found
among the sex that has found q new
way of causing it to render tribute
to their attractiveness. = Electricity.

Ancnt the. ease with which sem
tences are twisted and their mean
ing colored by stroke of the pencil,
am reminded of an oriental legend,
related to me recently at dinner
party by Mile. Azeez, the Syrian
lecturer. Mile. Azeez is an accom-
plished linguist and of course reads
and speaks Arabic with native
fluency. 'The Arabic language, ="
said she, IL quote her correctly from

some instances as many as seventy
different words to express the same
meaning, and then, too, the erasure
or addition of q dot will entirely re-
verse the meaning of a whole para
graph. There is a legend in Syria to
the effect that one of the kings min
isters once took q dislike to the
queen, and wrote a slanderous cpl
thet concerning her on the walls sur
rounding the palace.
1.-THE authorship was fixed upon
him, and the kings soldiery took him
into custody. His head was in dan
gcr. AS he was being conducted to
tie audience chamber the escort
passed the place where he had pub
lished the SANDER ON the queen. He
hurried and covertly erased a single
dot. When arraigned he declared
that it had been his intention to fiat
ter the queen, and begged his sover-
eign to send learned men that they
might read the inscription Alright.
This was done, and the wise men, in
stead of a calumny, found a poem
dedicated to the beauty and amiabil-
ity of her majesty."-New York

Two Lovers Of Rarities.

Foreign art journals contain an ac-
count of bargain made by a rich
Russian noble with an eminent
French artist. The rich man bought
picture which the painter had just
finished, and which was considered
his masterpiece, giving higher price
than was asked for it on condition
that the artist should mover make a
copy or retain a photograph or even
a study of it.
The Russian could not enjoy this
great work of art unless he knew
that no other human being could
share the pleasure except at his will.
It hangs in a chamber of his palace.
Oddly enough, the subject of the
picture which has excited this feel
ing is the Madonna and Child.
A companion story to this is that
of wealthy "self made American,
whose chief pleasure was for years
to accumulate autographs. His col
lection embraced letters from almost
every English author, the original
manuscripts of an essay by Ella, one
of Dickens novels and a lecture by
Thackeray. His delight in touching
and looking at these treasures was
keen. They were friends and com
panions to him.
One day he gathered them all up
and sent them to FREQ college for
poor boys.
'Itseemed criminal in me, he said,
Ito keep this great pleasure to my
self when thousands might be made
glad by it."-Youth's Companion.

An Eleven story 1iuiltng the Top 81
which Is Reached by Ladders
Totala, prccipitou5 n many places,
rises within the confines of the outer
city of Lhasa. in tho northwestern
quarter. 1t is heaped upin the most
fantastic style with halls and storied
temples and monster tombs; but, on
looking up from the foot of these
heights. the wholeserie seemed con
Joined into one.vast structure, sur
mounted by five gold plated rec
tangular domes of great size.
The chief erection is the P'o-dang
Marpo. OF Red palace" a building
carried up to the height of eleven
stories and which is assembled from
story to story by means of wooden
ladders with broad but difdcultste
This is the central edifice around
which the others climb and cluster.
The lower stories are built against
the sheer face of the ACTIVITY.
After passing up steep Path ave
nued by trees, you arrive at the prin'
cipal or eastern doorway of the whole
establishment. Here, first, is long
hall, up which you may ride on pony
back if you choose. The hall is gar.
nished on either hand by long rowe
of massive prayer cylinders, which,
placed Ike barrels on end on well
oiled pivots. can easily be made tc
revolve with touch as you pass
along.
Each barrel has within it, wound
compactly ON the iron axle passing
from top to bottom, innumerable
lengths of paper, on which has been
stamped many thousands of times
the well known formula, "Om Mani
Padme Hum" the special invocation
to the Bodhisattwa Cherraisi, and
therefore to the grand lama, who
visibly impersonates him. At the
end of the hall are broad stone steps,
which mount to a paved landing,
where stands an obelisk. You are
now again in the open air, and two
long flights of steps, hemmed in by
the outer walls of other buildings,
ascend up the face Of the hill to the
ground floor of the red palace.
Thence the ladder climbing com
mences. Five long ladders, one after
another, have to be scaled, passing
up through dark and mysterious
vaults--really vestibules to the neigh
boring buildings--some with weird
looking passages conducting who
shall know whither2 AT the top OF
the fifth ladder things seem brighter,
since now you enter the more hab
table portion Of the palace, compris
ing suites Of rooms, set above set.
On this floor, in an adjoining apart
ment, are the lower limbs of an ele
phantine image of Jhampa, the
Buddha-to-come. He is seated on q
platform in this room and his figure
is of such colossal proportions that il
passes up through the floors of the
two other stories above this one
Altogether the image is said to be
about seventy feet high. When you
have reached the third floor of the
upper portion of the palace you may
walk around and gaze upon the mon
ster head and shoulders Of this gilded
Buddha.
All orthodox visitors on their way
up perform solemn circumambula
ton around the legs, the body and
the shoulders respectively, once on
each of the three floors through
which the effigy has been reared. -
