Tales by the Tips

The upper lip should be bow shaped.
while the lower should form the arc Of
a circle. and to be ideally beautiful the
lower Lip should show more red than
the upper. The lips should be only
moderately full.
Thick lips show q sensuous tempera-
ment; thin lips, exhibiting little or no
color, while indicating firmness and
will power, are also indicative of lack
Of amiability, and according to other
indications in the face, may show
meanness, If not avarice. Firmly
closed lips indicate determination; open
lips, weakness and vacillation. The
open mouth is a characteristic of
idiots, says Woman's Life.
The upper lip should have a slight
curve inward before its union with the
nose, for the straight lip idicates its
owner to be unamiable and unintelli-
gent. Much depends on the length OF
the upper lip The distance from 1t tc
the nose should be one e-half the breadth
Of the mouth. A short upper lip indi-

MATTER REFERRED TO ENGINEERS

The widening OF Tenth street be-
tween Market and West. again came
up for discussion at the regular meet
ing of the Street and Sewer Commits
sion this morning. The matter was
thoroughly gone over, and from present
indications something definite may be
done IN the near future.
Ii is the wish of the board 70 in
crease the width of the thoroughfare
to 20 feet, the same as Delaware ave-
nue.. although Mr.. Johnson thought
that by widening the street twenty
feet al lobstacles would be over
come. As Tenth street is now
forty-nine feet wide. the twenty feet
would only give Il a width of sixty
nine feet. whereas Delaware avenue is
seventy feet wide.
Mr.. Johnson seemed to think that
one foot would make but little differ
ence and not be noticed, but Mr.. Mel
win was of the opinion that il would
make a difference and favored making
the thoroughfare the same width as
Delaware avenue. Mr.. Carter was also
In favor Of the seventy foot width and
Mr.. Johnson later gave in 10 his col
leagues.
A motion was made by Mr.. Melvin
to refer the matter TO the city engineer
and Assistant City Solicitor Baldwin
Springer to draw up resolutions an,
prepare plans for the widening Of IN,

ton. with the provlso that the resolu
tions and plans would be drawn ul

morning.

matter be taken up with him by a com
mittee within q few days. Mr.. Davis said
ne felt confident that he could convince
the committee the bills were right, and as
he had been before the court ON several
occasions in regard TO the matter he
wanted Il settled.
Mr. Wnlitts did not think the commit.
tee should be too hasty, as the bills, un'
| m recently, had been IN the hands OF th,
comptroller. President Chandler alsr
thought the committee should take ia
time On looking into the matter. After
some further discussion Il was referred

In WOman's Realm
Summer Night
BY Alfred Tennyson.

BY Alfred Tennyson.
Now sleeps the crimson petal now the
white;
Nor waves the cypress In the palace
walk:
Nor winls the gold fin in the porphyry
font;
The freny wakens: waken thou with
me.
Now drops the milk-white peacock like
a ghost,
Ank like a ghost she glimmers on to
me.
Now lies the earth all Danae to the
stars,
And all thy heart lies open unto me.
Now slides the silent meteor on, and
leaves
A shining furrow, as thy thoughts in
me.
Now folds the lily all her sweetness
up.
And slips into the bosom of the lake:
So fold thyself, my dearest, thou, and
slip
Into my bosom and be lost in me
