Notice TO Subscribers.

The lady who solicited subscribers
for the Weekly REGISTER last spring
reported verbally that some of thos g
who subscribed for six months asked
to have the paper discontinued at the
expiration of that time. She failed :,
however, to make out list of such
subscribers before going away, and
we are unable to comply with their
request without further notification
from them. We would therefore re-
quest that all subscribers who wish
their paper discontinued at the end
Of the lime for which they paid in ad-
vance, to drop us card when that

CARRIAGE OF THE MANILA GIRL.
Straight as the Wall of a House She
Holds Her Body.

The carriage and walk of the native
women of Manila are thus described
by a returning traveller:
"As a rule the women of all classes
are as straight as the wall of house,
if not straighter. A plumb line drop
ped from the nape Of the neck would,
in most instances, fall well behind the
heels. But the gait is a peculiar
swing which is quite noticeable. Some
charge this, as well as the straight
ness, to their habit of carrying all
burdens, from a cake of soap to a
house and lot, OF the top of the head.
That is probably the cause of the
erect bearing, but l think the peculiar
gait due to a certain swing of the
limbs required for keeping the shoes
on the feet. The local woman's
shoe consists usually of fiat sole
with a toe cap. Sometimes the cap
has room for all the toes; sometimes
not Often the sole is raised from the
ground by wooden heels and soles-
blocks like, but lower than those used
by the Japanese. Stockings are not
usually worn. Let my gentle reader
take a pair of her little slippers and
cut away from the soles all Of the
superstructure except a cap that will
just about cover her toes, and after
sticking her toes into them try TO
walk around her boudoir, and see
how many shoes she has on after the
trip. Try it again with the little
outward curving swing from the knee,
with a resultant side swing from the
hip. After few years Of practice the
slipper will stay on, and you will have
acquired the gait of the Filipino. There
is, perhaps, a certain grace in the
movement, and there is also good
deal of shutting and a general ap-
pearance Of being slipshod."

FACES INDICATE CHARACTER.
Various Types of Forehead and Eyes
and What They Show.

A head justly proportional to the
rest of the body shows steadiness and
force of character; too large, it gen.
orally indicates grossness and stupid
ity; too small, feebleness and inapti-
tude of mind. If not of constitution.
The physiognomy of forehead is seen
in the form of the frontal bone, its
height and proportion, regularity or
irregularity; this marks the dispo-
sition and measure of our faculties,
our fashion of thinking and feeling.
Pathognomy should be studied in the
covering skin, its color, wrinkles,
tension or relaxation; this gives a
clew to the passions, the actual state
of the spirit within, the use it has
made of its natural gifts. Foreheads,
seen in profile, are divided into three
classes; projecting above, fat on the
eyebrows; retreating from behind de-
veloped brows and perpendicular.
Broadly speaking, those with promi-
nent eye bones act promptly, on the
Judgment, perhaps passion, of the mo-
ment. Yet they err but rarely, for
their gifts of intuition and rapid de-
duction seldom fail to guide them
rightly. High foroheads, lacking some
part Of this quick spirit, pause, con-
slider and weigh the matter before
taking action. Less passionate, less
imaginative, less resourceful. they can
not afford 10 make mistakes. Short
foreheads. prominent brows belong to
the man Of action. High well-de-
veloped temples to the man of thought.
A perpendicular, fiat forehead, with
wrinkles skin stretched tightly across
it, may be briefly dismissed as the
forehead of the fool. Eye bones which
project so sharply as to cause the hair
OF the BIZ ows to brlstle outward show
immense acuteness and genius for in
trigue. Ii Hung Chang, the great
Chinese minister, and Prince Bis
marck are good examples Of this class

and our letters and papers are nearly
always received within a month Of
their date. 1t seems as if the states
had been brought several hundreds of
miles nearer, and we were not so far
from home. The service in the office
here is very prompt and satisfactory
The return of the volunteers has given
Mr.. Faillies new lot of men to breal,
in, but one or two of the old ones have
taken their discharges here and STAYED
on in the Office.
There was one long delay in for
warding mail from here last summer
that, perhaps, was not understood yery
clearly at home. 1t occurred in the
latter part of May and the first of June.
There was full month when no mail
was made up to leave this office be-
cause of the quarantine on ac-
count of the breaking out in that
city of the bubonic plague. All ships
leaving Hongkong were held up by the
Japanese at Nagasaki for nine days.
There were several transports lying
in the harbor here at the time and II
seemed as If some of them must be
made ready to send back very soon.
But one thing and another interfered
and none was sent. Each time when
Mr.. Vaillie would make up his mind to
send the mail by way of Hongkong and
let it be quarantined at Nagasaki, he
would get word that transport surely
would sail for home very soon, and of
course the transport would beat the
regular liner by several days. The
average time of transport from here
to San Francisco is from a week to ten
days shorter than by way of Hongkong
and the liner anyway, and so he held
on. In the end it was a month before
the transport sailed. Now there are
frequent transport sailings because the
volunteers are going home; but rather
than run the risk of being caught that
way a second time, Mr.. Vailie is send
ing mails by way of Hongkong when
ever it seems likely that he will gain
time by it. OF the amount of the
business done by the various Philip
pine branches, the report speaks for it.
self. During the eleven months to
June 30. seventy-three mails were sent
to the United States and eighty-six
mails received from the United
States: 1873 dispatches were made
to foreign ports mostly to Hongkong
and Singapore, and 1872 mails received
from foreign ports; $50 dispatches
were made to Philippine points and 1888
mails received, not including the
double daily exchange with the clerk
on the train.
At the Manila Office 1924 money
orders were issued for $42S, 361.52 and
1,734 money orders for S46,690.14 were
paid, The total number of registered
pieces handled was 69,5SS. In all,
1904 bags of mail were dispatched to
the United States. In these were
1870, 400 letters. The total number of
pieces dispatched was 2,59S,371; the to-
tai number received, 1928 Jos, making
the total number of pieces handled
5526,476. The revenues from all
sources were $62.923.71. It is not pos
sible to state just what the expenses
of the service have been. There has
been S23. 156.97 expended at Manila,

A forehead square on the temples and
retreating into the hair on either side
is retentive memory and excellent
judgment. Lord Kitchener of Khar-
toum has the typical forehead of a
leader of men. Short, compressed
with prominent eye bones and thick
straight brows, square and receding on
the temples. A man with this fore
head could not fail to judge character
or circumstance with quickness and ac-
curacy, TO store such observations in a
tenacious memory and to act upon his
conclusion with promptness and deci-
sion.
Eyes, mirrors of the soul, may, per-
haps, be considered more beautiful
and attractive than any other feature.
Dividing them into two great classes,
light and dark, it has been said that
the dark indicate power, the light,
delicacy, Black eyes, so called-for
they are really of so deep an orange
that they appear black contrasted
with the white surrounding them-are
tropical. Sometimes they seem dull
and Sluggish, but the forces they be-
token are only slumbering, so that any
chance spark may set them ablaze
With such eyes the intellect will be
powerful and the passions strong
Clear blue eyes belong to temperate
regions. Other intellectual indications
being equal, what they may lack in
power and passion they will make up
in subtlety and versatility. Hazel eyes
show steadiness and power of constant
affection; green, cat-like orbs, though
frequently fascinating. are dangerous,
Tor they are sign of coquetry and
deceit. The eyes of genius are said
TO be OF varying tints, like the sea,
sometimes blue, tinged with green or
orange, in certain lights or when af-
tected by emotion, deep and almost
dark. These are but few of the infinite
varieties in tint. 1t should never be
forgotten that eyes are more capable
OF misleading than any other feature.
Form and color may indicate much:
the glance, steady or soft, perhaps even
more. Widely expanded eyelids see
much without rejecting greatly beyond
the present moment. Eyelids half
closing over the eyes denote less
facility of impression, but clearer in
sight, more definite ideas, greater
readiness in action; they notice less.
but think and feel intensely. Deep
set eyes with wrinkles at the outer
corners show penetration and a sense
of humor. Eyes set near together, es-
pecially when there are wrinkles
across the nose, are a sign of cunning
and meanness in small things, money
matters and otherwise. Set wide apart
the character will be generous. If too
wide careless and extravagant. The
proper distance between the eyes Is the
length of one eye.-Public Opinion.

Finally they are numbered by ma
chine and sent over to the treasury,
where the notes are cut apart and
stamped with the treasury seal. Then
they are ready to go into circulation.
Paper money of small denominations
requires more careful execution than
is necessary in larger bills, inasmuch
as it must stand so much more wear
and tear, passing oftener from hand
to hand. The faces of notes are print
ed in black, because it does not blur
so easily as colors. Green is preferred
for the black, because it endures use
better than any other color. Half a
dozen years ago the treasury authori-
ties thought of issuing a series with
skyblue backs, but this idea was re-
jected finally.

SOUTH AFRICAN NAMES.
Timely Hints Regarding Their Correct
Pronunciation.

In following the movements of the
contending forces in south Africa the
war correspondents will be compelled
to use many words and phrases of the
local Afrikander patois, more especial
ly when referring to the features of the
landscape.
And first as to pronunciation: The
local language in use by the "boers,"
or Afrikanders, as they prefer 70 be
called, is not that of the Netherlands
of today but patois the body of which
is the low Dutch of two centuries ago,
upon which has been grated numerous
Spanish, Malayan, provincial French
and native African expressions.
The first thing that the American
reader should grasp in this connection
is the sound of the vowel "a'-this is
always long drawn out and sounded as
"ah;" in Afrikander, for instance, the
sound is almost represented by "Af-
rikaah- nder" and many of us spell the
word with two AS"
Then "uit" is one of the most puzz-
ling sounds to the Saxon tongue, but
becomes simple when you think of the
figure g. That in English Is the exact
sound OF "ut" in Afrikaansche. Uit-
lander therefore is precisely "8-lan-
der" and "spruit" Ga brook or small
river is correctly pronounced "spr-S,"
though people who have lived for years
in Africa will most of them get no
nearer to 1t than "sproot. Beers
land that word just means farmers"
and nothing else) always pronounce
it spr-8.
OF the consonants the letter "g" Is
the most characteristic and can only
be caught by lne Saxon mouth after
long practice. 1t is, with the Boer, a
very deep gutteral, of which some
faint notion may be gained when we
say that the proper name George" on
the tongue OF an old-fashioned "veldt"
Boer sounds exactly as II the speaker
were trying to clear his throat from
| tough bit of phlegm. When "g" Is
met as a terminal its sound may be ap-
pretended by the Saxon mind by
turning 1t into "kh" and that as pro-
nounced deep in the throat. All other
vowels are pronounced as in French,
but with greater broadness.
"Fontein," as Bloemfontein, the
"ein" Is pronounced ain" as IN
chain" Fontein, is a water-spring,
Spruit has been already mentioned.
But TO take the highland features first :
A "berg" is a mountain range; 1t is
seldom applied to an isolated hill.--N.
Y. World.
