"The old doctor heard Johns story, for it
was told without any attempt to SHIELD him

"Jehn! for your mothers sake and the

from this shame, on one condition.: that is
that you pledge me your word that never

.'John Smith was more than ready to agree
to this wise condition. The money. was ad-
vanced him, and he once more took, up his
life work. s..s..

young man, high in his profession. He is still

Character in the Face.

Recently the Pioneer Club Of London de-
bated the question, ''What is the most reliable
system of character reading yet attained?"
young lady who is an authority and
member of the British chronological Asso-
citation, maintained with much force and
spirit that Phreno physiognomy was a
system scientific in its character, which If
properly studied must produce Invariably
exact results. Miss Oppenhiems stated that
most people of observation were fairly sue
cessful in reading the face, but whether
exact in their results or not, the fact that
this method of estimating character was
universal was in itself an evidence that there
was much truth in it. This lady, very
shrewdly said that the time for limiting the
estimate of character to the head was past.
Indeed, she maintained that it neyeraxisted.
for even those who protested to haiie3e most
in bumps were largely Influenced BY the ap-
pearance of the forehead, which is the largest
and most conspicuous part OF the face. Il
the forehead be studied, why not the eyes
which are an indication of the intelligence;
the nose, which shows the degree offndividual
energy and capacity; and the mouth, which is
the index of the affections? 500 Lex
said he was not prepared to combat Miss
Oppenhiem's theories. But he believed that
it would yet be demonstrated, when the man
with the ability appeared to make the investi-
cations and draw the proper differences, that
every part of the person, not only the physi-
ognomy, but the voice, gestures, and the
walk itself, would all be found to be clues to
the character. Physiognomy and palmistry,
he maintained, should go hand in hand. But
clearly the man was begging the question,
for 1t there be truth in his own suggestion,
the foot is quite as much an index of the
character as the hand, and as to the rubbish
that the lines on the palm of the left hand or
of the right, either, indicate character, or give
a clue to the past or future, only the weak
minded or credulous servant girls now be-
ieve. Doctor Densmore, Professor Hubert.
and Mrs. Visger, all interested in the study
of character manifestations, believed we were
about to enter on new and broader era of
investigation. II these estimable ladies and
gentlemen were thoroughly acquainted with
the literature of the interesting subject which
they assembled to discuss, they would know
that here in America, one man at least has
been working on these ling for the past
twenty-five years, and has formulated
system as to the physical manifestations of
character, which is scientific in all its
methods, and which, when given to the
world, will show that the phrenologists, the
palmists and physiognomists have been look
ing for truth, each in a special corner of very
large and very interesting and most fertile
and many-angled field, instead of taking the
whole field itself for investigation, and having
for their motto in the broadcast sense that
line of Pope, s'The proper study of mankind
is man."

means anything, that she will have nothing
more to do with men as members of an or
ganized community. Mrs. Besant's 'Light
OF the Word" comes not from Palestine, but
from India. The land that was the cradle of
the Aryanrace must be in, her opinion the
land from which gust come the spiritual
light for the guidance Of that race. Mrs.
Besant stoutly declares that she is no longer
an Engishwoman,b but a Hindoo Of the Aryan
type. In other words, she accepts the vedas
and rejects the bible, and regards our old
friends Madame Bavatzky and Col. Olcott
as the great modern apostles Of an old, true
creed.

help them in their work and treat them as
equals and not as slaves.
One Of the largest and most populous of
this group of islands is called Vate-pro-
nounced s'Vatey''-and this had the pleas
ure of visiting in 1898. The people were no
doubt very fierce and cruel to visitors a few
years ago, but that I think was because they
were afraid Of them. Now they are as gentle
and kind as those most amiable savages in
the world, the people >of the Navigator's
Islands, or Samoa" as we now call them.
For one week I lived with the people of
Yate, sleeping in their conical rooted huts,
and eating of their food, and living exactly as
they did themselves, and they seemed to like
me the better for it. The only English word
they know-it was originally a Spanish
words "dollar," and all money, whether
nickel or gold coin, is to them dollar.
Fish abound along the coasts of these
islands, and the pearl fisheries are valuable.
The shores are lined with rich shells, and
through every month in the year the slopes
ofsthe hills are covered with flowers. When
the children learned that I was fond of
shells and flowers, it delighted them beyond
measure, and We became friends at once
With them it was quantity rather than,
quality, and my little hut was soon packed
with gorgeous flowers and its earthen floor
strewn with the loveliest of shells.
While the New Hebrides men, to use the
expression of an American President, 'sare
now at peace with all the world and the rest,
of mankind yet they love to carry their long,
cruel spears, with tips of sharks teeth, and
their rurderous war clubs, and the boys use
miniature articles of the same character for
toys. Here, as all the world over, the girls are
very fond of dolls. and they carry them on
their backs. AS their mothers do their children.
On nearly all the islands of Polynesia
tattooing is a very common custom, that is,
making figures on the skin by means of col
oring matter introduced under it, but the
people of the New Hebrides Islands have
another form of what they consider decora-
ton. By means of sharp shells, they make
sears in various figures on the face, along
the arms and legs, and frequently across the
