Green in the eye IS thought toindicate
treachery,. but usually it indicates
power of fascination. Thackeray gave

was both treacherous and fascinating.
Brown neutralizes the bad effects Of
green in the eye, while detracting not
at all from it's fascination.
The white eye may be a. very beauti-
full eye or terrible eye. With .theyiris
trimmed With black, this eye has great
distinction. In a woman, when it's
startling effect is modified by beanti-

is wonderfully alluring. In man,
whose face is coarse or brutal, this eye
strikes one with horror. e!

often. by the general expression. The
eye itself has no expression, although
1t isconsideredlthe most expressive Of
all features. The. expression that Is
attributed to the, eye really resides In
the lids, the eyebrows anil the muscles
'ofi the adjacent part of. the'face. 1t is
to- this expression that the attention
of most people is directed, says the De-
troit Free Press. They see light COM
ing from the eye and vitalizingithe ex-
preston of the lids and muscles but
the real character Of the. eye they fail
to notice. There is a fascination in
the study of the color Of the eye, and it
is held that there. is no color ;recog-
nizsd that cannot be found in the eyes
of some human being. There are red
eyes, green eyes, golden eyes, violet
eyes, sapphire, baby blue, black, white,
yellow eyes, and eyes, besides, in
which these hints arr mixed. 7,.sj
Blue eyes are said to be the mos:
numerous, and of these there are many
varieties The most common kind is
that, which is really a mixture of dark
blue and grayish white. With this
kind Oft an eye sometimes the blue and
white are mixed irregularly, in (which
case the eye lacks brilliapce, though it
may he lustrous. Sometimes the body
of the iris is grayish white, with blue
radii extending from the pupil. This
marking. gives q peculiarly hard -.ex-
preston to the eye. In still another
'sub-variety the central part;of theiiris
is light blush gray, with q rim ofsdark
blue. Such an eye is often mistaken

Some night when the moon is at

go outdoors with hand mirror and
hold it SO that the moons image
will fall on it. Make the experiment.
preferably when't the moon isgwell up
in the heavens. Instead of seeing one
image, as you will expect, you will
see four. One of these images win
be very bright, but the other" three
will be dull, like unburnished silver.
They will be in straight line, one
of the dull images on one side of
the bright Image and two on Fthe
other side of it. Turn the mirror
slowly around and the images will
appear. to- revolve around "a common
center I'd The y explanation " this
queer little phenomenon may be
found in the fact that there arc. two
surfaces in a-mirror, one in front and
|. the. other lin the back, where Scthe

images is from the moon itself; the
others are what are known as sec

Gulf, is dead at the age of 10S years
and 7 months. He was the grandson
OF Louis Gogan, who fought under
Montcalm In the defense Of Quebec.
Louis ran away to the city before the
entry of the British troops. He and a
few of the wealthiest citizens loaded
a schooner with plate, jewelry and
money and set sail for France.
They carried enough yaluables 10
enable the party to live in luxury for
the rest of their lives. But for two
days the schooner faced head winds,
and on emerging into the Gulf of st.
Lawrence a. gale struck the craft,
swept her down the coast of New
Brunswick and ran her on a ledge
just outside OF Cocagne.
Bearing the Count d'Hautreve on his
back, Louis Gogan swan ashore at
Cocagne Point. He acted as a body
servant 10 the nobleman until the
Count died In 1863. Before his death
the Count told him about the great
riches which had gone down with the
schooner, particularly describing three
large boxes filled with gold coins.
This story was handed down in the
Gogan family from father to son, and
on the day Of the great equinoetial
gale, Sept. %, 1888, Maxim Gogan, who
was then "A years of age, went down
along the shore of the gulf and found
two of the lost boxes. He would
never tell how much they contained
but as he never did any work after
that date and drank costly French
wines and brandy for more than sixty
years, besides leaving a fortune at hii
death. the neighbors have inferred tina
