French Grapholoeist Says That 1t In
:. dicates the Writer'S Character.
A French graphologist has discovered
that character can be read from the
letter s't'' alone. He claims that the
vertical line represents the fatality of
life, and the horizontal bar the infu-
ence human will exercises upon this
fatality. 49,
In Tradition, he claims that the higher
part of the vertical line-tRat project
ing above the horizontal bar-has indi-
cations of the amount of ideality con-
tanned in the makeup Of the writer, and
that the inferior part Of this line CORE
spends to the practical and material
part of the mans character.
For instance, the optimist crosses his
is with a line that slopes upward from
the earth to the sky, as it were. The
poet often crosses his It's quite above
the vertical line; in other words, in the
sky. x :. ~ -
The pessimist crosses his It's with a
downward sloping stroke. The line,
which commences at the ideal portion
of the letter, descends little by little I'M
til it is lost among the sad realities of
earthly existence. 2
The practical man, it appears, always
steers a middle course, and crosses his

terial, but exactly midway between the

The story Of the ass who clothed him
self in a iol.'s skin in order to pass
himself off as the king of beasts is well
known, but the tale of the thief who
got inside a sheeb's skin to be better
able to carry on his nefarious trade
has yet to be toll, says the London
Telegraph. Early one morning two
policemen, who were on duty at the
slaughter houses of Paris, were aston
lshed to see a sheep eGdeavoring to
effect an entrance into the Enclosure
where creatures of its kind were dou-
bled when a mans hard protruded from
beneath the stolen fleece. Their Curl

Still observed by the watchful guard
ians of the law, this pla,yiarist of an
ancient fable proceeded tc, kill and cut
up his capture, and was IN the point
OF making off with his booty when he
found himself in turn the spoil of the
law and was quickly marched off to
the police station, where he gave his
name as Eugene Lassot. From his ac-
count he made a good living out of his
occupation by selling the meat to vari-
Gus butchers. For some time, at least,
it is to be hoped, that the animals at

Snowballs Rolled by the Wind.

Passengers on the Flint River divi-
sion Of the Flint & Pere Marquette rail
road who came to Flint, Mich, recently
reported observing a strange phenom-
enon in large, level feldssnot far from
the city, says the Chicago Tribune.
Hundreds of snowballs, some of them
of colossal size, have been rolled to-
gether, it is thought, by the action Of
the wind. The fields were covered with
them, and nature accomplished in one
night what it would takesa large force
Of boys several days to do. 10.
