A curious paper is contributed by
DIR. Louis Robinson to recent num-
Der of Blackwood's on the influence of
trades on faces. IL is pretty generally
agreed that association with horses
gives person horsey look but 1t
appears that circus riders and ring
masters are exempt from the general
rule, because with them the horses
are regarded as mere properties"
and their minds are occupied solely
with the achievement of certain fea.s to
the satisfaction of the public. DIR.
Robinson takes as types professional
musicians. priests, actors, actresses,
and blacksmiths. aud shows how their
pursuits induce strongly marked facial
expression. Even the style OF hair
which has become associated with
musicians is not altogether dependent
on fashion, but is evidence of trophic
changes resulting from mental habits.
The growth aud vitality of the hair
are profoundly influenced hy emo.
tions. DIR. Robinson goes on to dis
cuss the other classes mentioned III
the same strain, and he ends by saying
that the aim Of the paper is to aid
those who are endeavoring to plac,
physioguomy on IA sound basis. tn
task is diliicult one, because IN tho
course of the article he admits that

Scarcity OF Lahorars.

II is an almost universal practice OF
farmers to plant much larger area
of land than they can possibly attend
TO until harvest time, and then there
is desperate struggle TO save the
crop. This is not only true with all
crops like corn, potatoes, cotton and
other kinds requiring attention during
the growing season, but grain which
is left To- itself from the time of sowing
until it - harvested. Sowing more
than they can reap is one of those
habits into which farmers fall, per.
haps without knowing why, but it is
not confined to any country, race or
cline. News comes to Us from South
America that along the River Plate,
while the weather is fine, dry aud very
favorable for ripening corn, the
gathering is retarded Ivy the scarcity
of labor for handling the great crop.
The farmers planted much larger
acreage than they should have done,
and SO find themselves crippled 70:
