YOUR NOSE.
" hat This Special Feature Tells of
Your Character.

\ nose thick and flat is an unfavor-
able feature with men as well as wOm-
en-, usually signifying that the charac-
ter is predominated by material in
stincts, while d turned-up nose with
wide nostrils betokens q vain DISPOSE
ton, says an exchange.
Especially wide nostrils are signs of
courage, strength and pride; small nos
trils Of weakness and timidity. Noses
large in every respect are usually
found among men, and when a woman
possesses a large nose it indicates tha'
she is masculine in character.
The nose. the form Of which has so
much to do with the beauty OF the face.
is amenable to culture, and we have il:
on the authority of a German physician
that it is beyond dispute that during
half an ordinary human life the nose
is capable of receiving more noble form.
The mental training of an individual
has a great deal to do with shaping the
nose.
The small. fiat nose, found among
women and called the sOuhrette nose.
when occurring with an otherwise
agreeable east of cOuntenance. indi-
Gates a gracious and cheerful naivete,
combined with considerable curiosity.
Such a nose is seldora found among
men, and when q man is unfortunate
enough to possess it he is characterized
by weak and deficient sagacity.

WHAT BECOMES OF METALSP
The Various Ways in Which Some of
Them Arc Used

The greater portion of the lead mined
is converted into white lead, red lead
and orange materials which are used as
pigments for paints. Much lead is
manufactured into sheet, some into bull
let's and other proiectiles, and the only
lead which comes back into the mar
ket in the form of scrap is that used for
lead pipes.
Zinc is largely used in galvanizing
steel or iron, in manufacturing bTass.
as a sheet zinc, and as oxide of zinc used
in paint. The only zinc available for
the new use is that used in making
brass. Next to scrap iron and steel,
scrap brass is found on the market.
Most of the worlds zinc product is
used in tin plates. Tin scrap is not
available and, though many efforts
have been made to utilize tin scrap, no
considerable amount of metal has been
obtained this way.
Next to iron and steel, copper is most
used in metallic form, only small por-
ton being used in the salts of copper
and blue vitriol. The great uses of COP
per are in the manufacturing of brass,
of which it forms two-thirds. in cleo
trical conductors, sheet roofing. cook
ing utensils and pipes.
just what becomes of the enormous
amount of metal mined every year is a
mystery, as a very small proportion IS
returned in the form of scrap material.

CANADIAN LAW.
Curious Provision Gives Convicted
Murderesa q New Trial.

A curious provision of Canadian law
empowers the minister of justice in the
cabinet of the Dominion government
to grant a new trial in criminal cases
where he entertains doubt as to the
justice of conviction. \ woman at
Clyuga, in the province of Ontario,
was saved from the gallows by the eX-
ercise of this authority the other day,
only few hours before the time fixed
for her execution. The prisoner, 4
Mrs. Sternaman, had been convicted of
having murdered her husband by poi
soning. The evidence laid before the
minister of justice, however, indicates
that the poison found in the body came
from a fluid used for embalming pur-
poses, and that information to this eff
feet had been given to the public prose-
cutor. The action of the minister is
generally commended, but the Cana
dian press criticises the prosecuting Of
ficers for suppressing such evidence
in behalf of the defendant, if they real
ly knew of its existence. The announce
ment of the minister's decision was re-
ceived at Cayuga with joyous demon
stration by large crowd of people.

A Young Mothers Way at n Dinner III
RemedyfnH an Oversight.

At small dinner given recently in
a western city the guest of honor was
q young married woman who is the
proud mother of two handsome boys,
both under five years of age. In their
education she endeavors TO follow

young mothers, and is very particular

During an early course in the dinner,
and in the middle of an animated con-
versation with her host, she suddenly
paused with a startled look and cried:
There, if did not forget those boys
againl Have you telephone in the
house, and may / use it?"
She was taken to the telephone by
her host, and the murmur of her voice
il earnest conversation hoated back
to the dining-room. After a short
pause she returned.

said. But, you see, l always have

A Self possessed Girl: THE best
dinner yarn that l ever heard" OBJ
served a woman at a Boston dinner
party recently, was the young man
who was much in love with certain
young woman but hadn't the courage
to tell her SO. One evening they were
dining out together, aud it SO happen
ed that hated rival took the girl in
to dinner. The rivals manner made
the bashful lover suspect that the RI
val intended to propose to the girl
that very evening. AS the dinner
progressed the lover became absolute
" sure of this, and spurred on by the
necessity he resolved to put his own
fortune to test and at once. Tearing
leaf from his note book he accord
ingIy scrubbed line or two, folded
it and gave it to the nearest servant
with a hand to the lady in blue
There was fortunately but one such
at the table, or matters might have
been complicated) The girl received
the note. opened it and read: viii
you be my wife, followed by his
name. He had forgotten to send the
pencil, however. But the girl was as
ready as the man was lacking, and
she turned to the servant and said
calmly: Just tell the gentleman
Yes.
