SOME GOOD SIGNS.
Index to the Character Of
People.

Teeth that are long and not narrow
denote large, liberal views, strong pas
sions, and heroic virtues. II they are
long and narrow, a weak character is
denoted. Long noses are cautious and
prudent; short ones impulsive; and
tip-tilted ones hopeful, impulsive and
joyous. Deep-colored eyes, with we'll
arched lids, both upper and lower, show
truthful and affectionate nature. An
eyebrow slightly curling at the outer
edge indicates jealous natuxe.
If the apex of the ear lies close to
the head the owner possesses a refined
nature. But if the top starts away
from the head at a well-defned angle
that person has an uneven disposition,
and is not to be relied upon. =.
If girls thumb lies fiat or droops
little, marital submission to the mas
ter mind is indicated. If the thumb has
a tendency to stand at right angles to
the hand, the damsel owning it is head
strong. ~. -.
A strong character has a strong,
erect thumb. Fingers which bend back
ward mean powerful determination.
If they are round, strength, both phys
ical and mental, is Indicated.

Nothing to Guard.

A sentry is still pacing up and down
certain portion of the Cherbourg
(France) docks. Some time ago an
old iron-clad, La Galisoniere, was
used as a target for the melinite
projectiles, and, after the expert
ments, was brought to the dock for
inspection. Orders were given that a
sentry should be stationed there to
keep the public out Of the ship. After
the inspection the ship was taken
away, but, as the orders for. the SEN
try were not countermanded, the post
is still kept up. u 5:= S.. z@,z

1900 several were brought into use
throughout Delaware, and in 1901, last
year, thirty-six refrigerated cars OF
cantaloupes were shipped from one sta
ton, Salisbury. At Olney, Va, eight
cars were used as an experiment.
This year the story will be different.
Already 227 refrigerated cars have been
used at one station for strawberries,
and all the iced cars that can be OBJ
tanned are being applied for the peach
season, and for the carriage of other
small fruit. Icing stations have been
established and fitted up for supply
ing hundreds of tons of ice, at Clayton
Salisbury (two factories) and Crisdeld.
Nearly 1000 refrigerated cars will be
used for cantaloupes alone if the crop
is as abundant as is now predicted.
1t has taken the fruit growers all these
years, since the invention of the re-
frigerated car, to discover that Della
ware and Maryland fruit, carefully
packed into these iced carriages,
reaches its destination, two and three
days later, i'll as good condition as
when shipped. 1t makes unlimited
distribution possible and forces a de-
mand for this refrigerated fruit al

CHEswoLD, June 24:-The cOntin-
uous raining last week at time when
the binders ought to have been NOV
ing in our wheat fields, was somewhat
alarming for our farmers, lest the
wheat might not rise from its fallen
condition, so as to be gathered. Heads
were together discussing the situation.
A bright Sunday and Monday however,
has brought encouragement. The
reaper is moving all about US, and the
loss sustained by down wheat will be
only slight Some think the yield is
going to be large, because they have
counted the large we'll filled heads.
Mr.. Alfred Madley, has sold his 20
acre farm and stock on the Leipsic

been the case in former years.
Blackberries have made their ap-
pearance, and owing to the good price
of strawberries but few of our farmers
have sold their patches. The season
promises larger crop of blackberries
than we had Of strawberries.

mined to esect a SO, 500 depot at Ches.

The railroad will bear 81, 900 of the

ance Of 81 900 or $1,000 to raise. This
they have set about doing, with the
prospects that the handsome new de-
pot will be centrally located, with
abundant grounds. This change will
also mean the introduction of the long
needed telegraphic facilities. With
