How to Judge a Woman.

without chart to reveal her where
abouts. All you have to do is to look
at her face.
There is a man who is giving drawing
room lectures upon faces. He reads the
character, not by the head or the hand,
but by the face.
You take face that is open" says
this lecturer, land you find a peculiarly
frank disposition. The girl who can
laugh and show her teeth, broadening
her mouth into wide smile, is a girl
who has an open spirit, one who would
not deceive you
The woman who, when she smiles
keeps her lips closed, is not the woman
whom you can trust. She 1nay not be
dangerous, but she is secretive. And,
though she may tell you the truth, she
will not tell you the whole truth.
But the open-mouthed girl may have
a quick temper, and she generally has
Her upper lip is short and her temper
IS no longer than the upper lip.
She gets angry in hurry, and it is
t1are-up with her Soon over, it may be,
but, for few minutes, the girl with the
short upper lip, the laughing mouth and
the white teeth, falls a victim to her
own temper.
1T is usually supposed that the girl
with the quick temper is the girl of
unfortunate disposition, the girl to be
avoided. But. as a rule, the quicker the
temper the sooner over; and the girl with
the spirited disposition is the one who is
the incest in the long run.
Affectlonate girls can always be told
by the mouth. The lips never stay to-
sether, but are always parted or ready
to part.
THE affectionate girl is the emotional
girl She always has her sympathies on
tap, and she can weep with you as read
lily as she can laugh. Her lips, which
he IN curve half parted, will reveal
all the emotions of her soul and at very
short notice.
THE round, soft-chinned girl is the
girl to choose for a wife. The woman
who has no chin at all, or at best a
slopng chin, is not the woman who
would make a good helpmate She
would have no self-control whatever, and
would fall victim to every temptation
that beset her pathway.
The weak-chinned woman is the
woman who becomes addicted to alcohol
ism, who takes to smoking and to the
minor vices for women. And it is the
Weak-cmnned woman who goes far be-
Fond her husbands income and cannot
resist doing so again and again
The weak-chinned woman is not
vicious, but just weak. There are a
great many estimabie women who have
no chin to speak of. but they are estim-
able only because they have never been
tempted to be otherwise.
Quite the opposite is the woman with
the PROMINENT chin. Here is the woman
VINO knows thing or two. and does not
hesitate to tell you so. She absolutely
rules the household roost
THE amable woman has a rounding
chin, just chin enough and no more than
enough. 1t may be a single chin. or it
may be double chin. But it's type is
unmistakable.
This desirable type of chin is curved,
and sometimes dimpled. 1t is rather
wide, far from pointed, and it gradually
broadens into full happy cheeks.
The beautiful type of chin may not
belong to the. beautiful type of face, for
pretty chin does not make a pretty
woman. But it is one of the straws
which show which way the wind is blow
ing.
THE eye reveals character, but unfor-
1unately not so clearly as the other fea-
lures, though the contrary is supposed
To be true.
people are too much influenced by the
color of the eye, which is, after all, no
guide, and they are too much influenced
by the size and the luster, whereas
neither is any indication whatever of
character.
Character is revealed in the eyes by
the expression. by the softness or by the
hardness, by the glow, by the appeal, by
The way of looking at you.
There are people who cannot look
you full in the eye, and these are the
people who are not frank. the people
whose strategy. whose duplicity, whose
methods and whose means are not the
best in the world
Dark eyes are supposed to belong to
the best type of soul. But this, also, is
q fallacy. Dark eyes are more eyDres-
sive than light eyes They are more
capable of showing the emotions, they
can say more than light eyes But they
do not denote any clearer, better char
acter.
Con the contrary, there are many peo-
pie who argue wholly in favor of the
Eght-eyed person, and say that blue eyes
are true eyes, and that black eyes and
brown eyes are full Of duplicity.
IF you are going TO read character by
the face do not forget 70 read the COM
plexon. The skin is a wonderful index
of the state of the body. and consequent
~ of the habits and disposition of the
body.
1.-THE skin of a dyspeptic is sallow.
The skin of Il morbid person. troubled
with the liver, is a greenish yellow, 60

who is lazy will be notified.
I'll temper affects the circulation of
the blood; it sends the quick rush to the
and makes the hands and head hot and
the feet cold.
Women are more affected by i'll tenn
per than they suppose, and a great many
colds are caused by bad circulation.
which in turn is caused by an attack Of
bad temper.
The skin that is perfectly clear and
pretty almost always belong to the good
natured woman, and a pair of bright.
pretty red cheeks are almost always the
property of the girl with 4 sunny dispo-
siton.
1T is said that an ill-tempered woman
cannot have nice complexion. Certain
~ her chances are much better if she
will govern her temper. guard her tongue,
and try in every possible way to remain
equally balanced through the trying
scenes of life.
