Character in Hair.

Did you ever know woman's character
can be read by her hair? Palmistry having
gone out of date among fashionable people the
uuveiling Of the disposition may be done by
close examination Of any lady'sIlocks.
If her hair shows much care, being glossy,
well kept and every pin in its place, you may
rely upon it she is a lady, born and bred,
whether her own Or the def fingers of maid
arranged it.
Gloss only comes from constant attention,
and the woman of innate refinement is the
one who fingers over her toilet, reve:s in bath.
and adores shampo-s.. Therefore sign num-
ber one reads truthfully. Coarse hair shows
humble birth. Brown hair, as a rule, if of
the peculiarly fl: e character that makes it ap
pear very thin, will indicate good disposi-
ton. Hair that splits in the end is a repre-
sentation Of the owners tendency to quarrel
and have chickering's and differences on all oc-
casiohs. Black, glossy hair shows trcachely y;
blonde, fluffy hair, weakness and vanity, and
red hair, temper, but truthftlness. The sort
OF hair known as drab, the kld 50 hard to
match and awtully highpriced when one wants
false bang, reads thus-highly sensitive and
touching. Either dye your locks or expect to
be read OF all men, for though hands some
times lie, hair never does.

Long and Short Lives.

According to the figures Of great life in
surance company, commercial travellers and
agents live longer than men in any other
kind of business, notwI thstandidg the hazards
which attend transportation by rail and water
Next to them come dentists, teachers and pro-
fessors, including music teachers. hatters,
cergymeu and missionaries. Next come
bankers and capitalists, who seem to live just
trihe longer than butchers and marketmen.
Lawyers and jewellers follow, and they are
succeeded on the list by merchants, peddlers,
milkmen> and pawn brokers. Then come
gardeners, laborers, civil engineers and can
vassers, book eepers aud bank cashiers, artists
and architects. Newspaper men come next,
with the printers, physicians, and gentlemen
who are not engaged in active employment.
Then follow the apothecarles and photogra.
piers, and after them in order bakers, cigar
makers, real estate agents, army officers and
soldiers, liquor dealers, marine and naval Off
GERS. Shortest lived of all seem to be the auc
tioneer>, boarding house keepers, BARRIERS and
drivers.

A Trick of the Eye.

BY cutting three strips of white pa
per of the same length exactly, with one
of them half as wide as the others, one
of the neatest tricks of optical illusion
can be produced. If those of the same
width are laid crosswise, the narrow
strip placed in the center, it will in
variably seem as if the broad strips
were considerably shorter than the mar
row one. The illusion is enhanced
by laying the pieces Of paper on black
surface. BY placing the three
strips in the form of an inverted an
and using the narrow strip for the di'
agonal line, the latter in turn will ap-
pear much shorter than the other two
To an Impractical eye the illusion will
seem very remarkable indeed when it
is demonstrated that all the strips are
of the same length.

Popularity of Music

"The reason why music is so much more
popular than art" remarked Mr.. g Cannon
who is at the Lindell, sis not very hard to de
scribe, although it is question which has
been argued at great length. The reason real
ly is that music rests, while art more or less
fatigues. In other words you hear and enjoy
music without an effort, whereas the tired
man seldom exerts himself sufficiently to take
in and appreciate the beauties of nature or
the achievements Of art. No one who went
through the war fails 10 appreciate this. On
long march it was practically impossible to
make any progress without band, and there
is no case on record Of the loveliness of scenery
acting as an incentive to exertion. can re-
member marching through some of the loveli-
est country ever seen, and feeling like drop
ping at every step until the band struck up,
when, as if by magic, all fatigue seemed TO
disappear, and marching became pleasure
rather than labor. 1t would be very hard
to popularze ait as much as music, but it is
only by remembering the restful idea that any
actual progress can be made in that direc-
tion.'

awoke - the morning. just before we
went to bed Uncle Joe came in from Il visit
to the barn and said:
sally, think saw man dodge around
the corncrib as came past
La me! But what would any one be
dodging around our corncrib for?" she re-
piled.
Dunno

calfy?"
II didn't think to sniff
That's what I'd have thought of the

find out for certain?"
''Waal, guess it's nuthin to worry
about, !" replied Uncle Joe as he reached for
the bootjack.
OF course it amt, unless it's pesky
skunk sneakin around to git up another
awful smell. Come boys-time for bed!'
The window of our bedroom, or one of it's
three windows, looked out on the back
yard, and just below it was the roof of the
summer kitchen. Jim and l sat by the
window for half an hour to watch for the
strange thing uncle had seen, but as mat
ter of fact the night was SO dark we could
hardly see the ground below u.s. In those
days no farmer locked Il door nor fastened
window. 1t struck us that Uncle Joe felt
certain he had seen man, and that he
