We always suspected that Carman was
contributing his share to the insurgents
for he traded where others could not

several rich towns and found a market
for their goods-but not without good
profit to 'Carman & CO.. One day Car

The thumb confesses the man; no man
Is clever enough to deceive his thumb
For all time, it has ben divided into three
parts typifying the three qualities that
master the world-will, logic and love.
The first or nail phalange signifies will;
the second, logic; the third, which is the
boundary of the Mount of Venus, love-
when the thumb is unequally developed
and the first phalange is extremely long,
1t is neither love nor logic that governs
the individual, but merely sheer will. If
the middle phalange be much longer than
the first, reason predominates, yet the
man may not have the power to win him
self to do that which his reason dictates
When the third phalange is long and the
thumb is short, man is revealed as the
slave of the senses. guided neither by will
nor reason. If the thumb be supple
Jointed the individual is easy-going spend
thrift, careless of time, money energy,
opportunity, and all things. If it be firm
jointed he is cautious, watchful, keen,
diplomatic, tireless in planning, confident
and sure of success, self-poised and self
controlling.
Souvarof, celebrated for the strength
of his Will; Danton, that magnanimous
soul, who took upon him the disgrace of
crime to save his country; Calico, Soc
rates, Newton, LeibnitZ, Saint Simon,
Fourier, Owen-those profound reasoners,
those bold innovators-had infallibly very
small thumbs. Voltaire, the man of the
world, whose heart was subject to his
brain, had enormous thumbs.
The intimate psychic connection between
the mind and the thumb, revealed by
science in a thousand phases, makes it
folly to deny that the thumb is the Their
mometer of character, and the barometer
of mental health.

GERMANS BEHAVED CALAMITY.
The Berlin Newspapers Loud in
Their Praise.

Berlin, April 29.-The latest China spe-
cials to arrive here show that the Ger
man troops behaved with the greatest
gallantry during the engagement with
the forces under Gen. Liu, storming the
stronghold of the enemy. even after dark
ness and in spite of the huge rocks rolled
down upon them.
The Chinese artillery, although firing
splendid guns made in 1898 at the ar
senal in Han Yang aimed badly. The
Germans demolished the Notifications
near the gates of the great wall They
suffered intensely from the heat. The
French received instructions from Paris
with marching towards the province of
Shan ST, but they held Ku Kwan, which
they have since left, destroying the field
telegraph and thus cutting off German
communication.
The German press is loud in praise of
the bravery of the Germans. The opn-
ion is generally expressed that Gen Lius
conduct was either due to the duplicity
of the Chinese court or to a state of
anarchy which augurs i'll for the future.
Under such conditions" says the Ma
tional Zeitung. German victories like
these, all over larger numbers than have
hitherto been encountered during the
wh9le war--the Germans fighting one to
fcur-have the GREATEST significance"

WOMAN On HORSEBACK.
The Reason why She Can't Do the
CIOthes-Pin style.

From the New York Journal.
Some women in Boston, and some wo-
men in England, have recently taken to
riding horseback astride.
Strange things that are limited to Bos-
ton and to England may be ignored by
friends of humanity.
But when the strange doings spread to
Brooklyn, the home of sedateness, beau
ty and common sense, the friend of wo-
man must interfere and tell what he
knows.
Lovely women you may as we'll make
up your minds that you will never ride
astride. The best way for you to ride is
on a side saddle, as you have always
done.
y We shall try to find proper phraseoGogy
to explain this matter 70 you.
Go to any public museum and look at
the statue of some Greek Venus, for In
stance, the Venus known as the Venus
Accroupie."
After studying the Venus, study the
statue of a young man.
You will discover. to tell the plain truth
bluntly that women have round legs and
men have fiat legs.
A man thus holds the side OF a horse
firmly and secures a good seat riding
astride.
1t is difficult, if not impossible. for
She sits there straddle-wise with very
slight grip on the horse. If he stops sud-
denly. or misbehaves she goes over his
head and hurts herself.
The side saddle was invented to make
up for this deficiency. The pommei gives
a firm seat to woman, at least as firm as
that of a man.
She should, if possible, have two sad
dies, one arranged for riding on the left
6 81 III
on the right side.
These two saddles she should use alter
nately TO avoid twisting the spine.
This is especially important to young
girls, whose spines are easily affected.
No Venus was ever intended to ride
horseback as men ride.
If any woman succeeds in riding strad-
die fashion really well it will simply prove
that she is no Venus and that she is not
manufactured according to the beautiful
classical model.
We presume that this plain statement
of facts will check woman's mania for
riding unna turally in clothes-pin fashion
Women may as well know first as last
that there are some things that they can
not do.
They can't ride straddie-wise because
their legs are too round.
They can't throw a stone at hen sue
cessfully because their shoulders are con-
structed in a way that lets them carry
a baby without fatigue and makes it i'm
possible for them to swing the arm freely
OF course, no woman ought to want 10
throw a stone at a hen, since both are
mothers, or may be, but that is a moral
question and has nothing to do with
beauty.
No woman could be a very good runner
or jumper.
This is due to the way in which her
knees are made. and that particular for
nation in it's turn is part of the intelli-
gent plan connected with functions of
maternity.
Women, you would despise men if they
tried to do everything that is done by
their interiors, the monkeys.
A monkey compared to a man is hide
Gus. He can do things that a man can't
do-for instance, he can hang from
limb by one foot.
A man is hideous compared to a wo-
man and can do things which woman
can't do.
We beseech women to give up their fool
-ish imitation of men.
