CHARACTER IN THROAT.
Interesting De du ctiohs Made Recent
IL by . student of WOmankind
at It's Best.

Some one has lately been making
study of various threats, and has de-
duced some rather interesting, if some
what. obvious results bearing upon the
character of women. The woman with
the swan-like neck is said to be crea-
ture whose mentality, to use a rather
modern invention in words, dominates
her existence. Physically. delicate, the
long-necked woman is mentally very
much alert, but sensitive to an ex-
traordinary degree. She is timid and
suspicious, yet when her trust is be-
trayed bears her woe in silence with
out sign.
1t is no news to learn that the throat
that denotes obstinacy is short and
thick, and usually belongs to the girl
with athletic shoulders and not very
many inches in stature. Girls with
anatomical traits of this sort are eX-
tremely good natured, though they OBJ
tain their own way by persistence.
This is the type of woman whose
health is excellent, and whose outlook
upon life is eminently sensible. In 90
cases out of 100 she is the ruling spirit
of the home in which she abides, and is
never a lacking quantity when sound
advice and ready help are needed. She
is also noted for her executive ability,
and on this account does not mind
mounting platforms or organizing So
cieties that will help her sex step
forward on the road 10 complete eman-
cipation.
. All curves and white, satin-like soft
ness is the throat of the born enchan-
tress, upon which the head is set as eX-
.quisitely as was that of Helen of Troy.
Consciously or unconsciously the CO.
quette invariably. makes good use of
her beautiful and supple neck. Some
times she will hold it on one side, at
other times. her head will droop like a
Hover. Poets and artists speak not
without reason of the. perfect neck of
such a woman with enthusiasts; they
say it resembles around, white column,
and no other words describe its beauty
more correctly.
The neck of the conversationalist,
the woman of wit and also of anna bill
1ty, may be short or rather long, but is
almost always in harmony with the
shoulders and head.-Brooklyn Eagle.

Proper storage of silver.

To prevent silver from furnishing,
place few Jumps of camphor in the
box or drawer containing the silver
articles; this will neutralize to some
extent the gases which turn silver
dark. If silver is to be stored for some
length of time, it should be cleaned
thoroughly and placed in cotton fan
mel bags that can be closed tightly at
the top. Then these bags should be
wrapped in paraffine paper, or, still
better. in beeswax paper. To make the
latter tit cannot be bought) take ordi-
nary MANILA paper and lay it on a
smooth surface covered by. a white
cloth. Shave the beeswax thickly over
the paper and then pass hot iron over
the paper, when the wax will be melt
cd right into the paper.

WOMEN WILL GROW TALLER.
Prediction That the Girl of the Com
ing Years Will Be of Larger
Stature,

The petite woman has had her day
and if the prophets are to be be-.
lieved she will very soon be COM
PEELED to give way to her sister who
is ''divinely tall" According to an
eminent eastern physician 1.-The pres
ent century will witness striking
changes in the comparative physiques
of men and women. During the two
final decades of the nineteenth CEN
fury the average stature of the Amer
lean woman showed a gain of over
an inch. While it is absurd to think
of an indefinite continuance of this
progression, it is probable that with
in so years the six-footer feminine
will be a common sight in our city
streets, and the average masculine
stature will not exceed five feet eight
inches.
That the increase of woman's
height has been due to her enthusi-
astic adoption of outdoor sports can
not be doubted, but why mans stat
ure should dwindle. instead of in
creasing or remaining in statu quo.
is not so susceptible of explanation.
writes Robert Webster Jones, in the
Housekeeper. The suggestion that,
''with woman's growing prediction
for public life man has become of
shrinking disposition" must be re-
jected as trifiing with a serious sub
ject, for serious it is-to man. Equal
ly unworthy of consideration is the
theory that matrimonial expenses
keep a man Short" Whatever the
explanation timely warning should be
accorded man that he is shortly to
be Cooked down upon" Whether
high-heeled boots or other artificial
aids can be utilized advantageously
by the dethroned monarch to main
tain his dignity remains to be proved.
1t is the condition of looking up to
his wife that confronts man-not the
theory. And it is condition to
which many a hus band would take D
long time to get accustomed.

HORSES ATE SLEEPY GRASS.
Narcotic HerbaSe of the Sacrame nto
Mountains Produces StupOr
In the Animals.

Vernon Bailey, in writing to Science,
says that he has been told by a ranch
man in the Pecos valley of New Mexico
of a strange kind of grass found in the
Sacramento mountains which, from it's
peculiar effect on horses, is called
sleepy grass" and differing from the
locoes in merely putting horses into a
deep sleep without other symptoms of
poisoning. Some time afterward Mr..
Bailey was travelling in the Sacramento
mountains and writes thus of his ex-
periences: 1--WE had made camp one
evening in q beautiful park, bordered
with spruces and frs, and covered with
tall grass that, with its green base
leaves and ripe heads loaded with heavy
rye-like grain, offered a tempting feast
to our hungry animals. The moment
saddles and harness were off the horses
were eagerly feeding. A few minutes
later passing ranchman stopped his
team and called over to us: Look out
there! Your horses are getting sleepy
grass and added: If they get good
feed of that grass you will not get out
of here for a week. We were not pre-
pared to spend week in that locality,
but 1 was anxious to test the grass, so
let the horses feed for half hour,
then brought them up for their oats
and picketed them on some short grass
on the side hill, went out of reach of
the sleepy grass.
''The following morning just after
sunrise the cook called my attention
to the attitude of one of the team
horses, saying there was sure some
thing the matter with old joe The
horse was standing on the side hill,
asleep, his feet braced wide apart,
head high in air, both ears and under
lip dropped, a most ridiculous picture
of profound slumber. The other horses
apparently had not eaten as much of
the grass as old Joe,, for they were
merely doing in the morning eur, and
showed signs of life in an occasional
shake of the head or switch Of the
tail. At breakfaz. time the others

not wishing to be further dependent

The Bicycle In England.

Bicycling is said to be holding it,
own in England much better than in
this country, perhaps partly because
the roads are better and the dis
tanees smaller, and partly because
the English do not tire of a new
craze so quickly as Americans. It is
said that the demand for new wheels
last year was larger than in any pre-.
vious year since the height of the
boom.-Chicago Chronicle.

inent brick manufacturer of that city,
says: "When Doan's Kidney Pills were
first brought to my attention I was
suffering from a complication Of kid
ney troubles. Besides the bad back
which usually results from kidney com.
plants, had great deal of trouble
with the secretions, which were ex.
ceedingly variable, sometimes excessive
and at other times scanty. The color
was high, and passages were accom-
panied with scalding sensation.
Doan's Kidney Pills soon regulated the
kidney secretions, making their color
normal and banished the inflammation
which caused the scalding sensation.

made. In consequence she appealed the
case and will be prepared to make her
revelations, whatever they are, at the
next term of court.
Sir Francis Cook, who died two
years ago, was very old and rich. His
millions were left mostly to the chill
dren of his first wife, but Lady Cook
was amply provided for. 1t was a
source Of considerable establishment to
Sir Francis friends that he should
have married Tennessee Clafin. He
had reached the allotted threescore and
ten when that event occurred. Miss
Claflin, with her sister, Victoria Wood
hull, once candidate for the presidency
of the United States, had gone to Eng
land to promote the cause of woman
after a strenuous career in the United
States. They had brought on the
Beecher-Tilden trial through reveal
lions they made iii a paper published
in New York; they had preached rather
outspoken doctrines which resulted in
prosecution and caused them to spend
a night in Ludlow street Jail. New
York, and they had been conspicuous
in n dozen ways.
Scarcely had they landed in Lopdon
before Victoria married an aged mil
lionaire banker, John Biddulph Martin,
and Tennessee married the aged silk
merchant, Francis Cook. Banker Mar
tin soon died and left all his money to
his wife, but Mr.. Cook continued to live
long enough to gain his title, thanks to
the promptings of his wife, through
whose influence he gave large sums in
charity.
Since his death Lady Cook has given
away large sums for the relief of needy
women. Now, however, she seems to be
determined to make sensation, and
until her case is heard London will be
in the throes of expectancy awaiting
her revelations.
