Physiognomists rely greatly upon the
expression and color OF the eye IN
reading character. Il is said that deep
blue eyes indicate a mind disposed
to cOquetry, but still bespeak a heart
capable Of pure, answering, ardent
love. Gray eyes signify dignity, intel
hgence. and large reasoning powers.
Greenish eyes belong TO a nature in
which viii be found. IN the majority
OF cases. jealousy. falsehOOd. scandal
and malice. Where the white is tinged
with yellow and streaked with red
dish veins. the eyes are the refectors
Of passion and hasty temper. Restless
eyes, that cannot look one steadily in
the face, denote a seheming and q
treacherous disposition. Quiet eyes sig
nifty self-command, competency. and
q modicum Of coneeit Black eyes tell
you Of slumbering passions and an
active disposition, sometimes marred

PsouIIaritios Of Art Of self-Defsnss
AmOaE JsPauese.
A recent attempt to introduce into
England q modified form Of Japanese
wrestling under the name Of ''bartit-
su" calls attention to the peculiarities'
q this cart Of self-defense" as It has
developed in Japan. Il Is asserted
that the Japanese hold this art Of
theirs On such reverence that II has
rarely been allowed TO be shown pub
Hcly IN their own land, much less
abroad. Wrestling has been q sport
IN japan for more years than can well
be counted. The japanese wrestler
belongs to a distinct class, and what
he does not know about wrestling in
an orthodox or even unorthodox way
can scarcely be worth the knowing.
Some Of the Japanese Wrestlers can
trace their sporting pedigree back for
more than three centuries. They are
an meat eaters, whereas the ordinary
Japanese consumes only rice and fish.
Conseguently-this fact Is dwelt upon
as one Of the strongest arguments
AGAINST Tegetarianism-they are all
big men. The champions OF Tokyo,
Kyoto and Osaka, when they meet in
annual tournaments, can scarcely
average less than six feet, whereas the
Jauanese people themselves are quite
four inches under the European stand
ard. Two hundred and eighty pounds
4 not an uncommon weight for a ia
panese wrestler, and the heaEier they
are the better chance they stand IN
