WINDOWS OF THE SOUL.
Eyes Have Always Been Recognized
- the Mirrors of the Char
acter Beneath.

The most important Of all physical
faculties is sight. The eyes, the win
dow of the soul, are the chief avenue Of
communication between the inner ma
ture and the external world. Therefore.
they should be carefully guarded. How
ever trying other physical disadvantages
must be, such as premature wrinkles.
badness or loss Of teeth, yet, compared
with the great calamity of failing eye
sight, they are featherweighte In the
balance. Science can help US success
fully hide the loss Of our hair and
leeth, and, II powerless to hide the wrin-
kles, at any rate aids us to bear them
with philosophy. But the veriest sus-
picio nof falling eyesight is quite suf-
ficient to bring terror to the bravess
soul. Our vision Is as precious to us as
life itself. Our intellectual enjoyments,
our outlook on Gods beautiful world
nay, in most cases, our very bread and
butter-depend on the 'clearness OF our
eyesight. There is no possession more
coveted by women than pair of beau
tiful eyes. Yet the owner Of the ugliest
or most repelling eyes imaginable ia
more to be envied If she can lay claim to
better vision. The eyes which possess
clear sight, whatever their color may
be, are verify the windows of the soul.
What instructive confidence we place in
frank, sincere gaze! We feel that
those eyes which spell goodness, and
even holiness of life In every glance,
are the faithful mirrors Of the charac-
ter beneath. In the same way all the
great generals or leaders Of men have
possessed in a preeminent degree the
calm magnetism of eye, sure symbol OF
the iron will of their owner. Great or
ators have swayed vast audiences quite
as much by the fairy magnetism Of the
eye as by the golden harmony Of Ian
guage.-N. Y. Weekly.

SHE poKEs HIM UNDER THE EAR.


wards used in fencing are comprised in
it. Some of the guards used by boxers
and movements of the leg and foot prac-
ticed by opponents of French boxing are
introduced, as well as certain methods
peculiar to German swordsmen and pro-
fessors Of the rapier. Numerous tricks
are borrowed from the marvellous Jap
anese system known as "Ju, Jit Su, = or
weakness lgainst strength" against
which Fitzsimmons would be as help
less as a babe, and any delicate lady
who becomes proficient in the art can
rest assured that she is match for
at least one or two roughs so long as
she retains her presence of mind and
her umbrella!
The accompanying photograph, made
for the Kansas City Star, and for which
Nine. Vigny consented to pose, gives a
better idea of the system than any de-
scription could.
Miss Baden-Powell, the sister Of the
famous general, impressed by her BROTH
er's adage that "a smile and stout
stick will carry one through any diff
Guilty." has become proficient in self
defense with parasol and walking
cane.
The method of self-defense with an
umbrella or walking-stick does not take
long to acquire. After three months
tuition an average young girl would be
equal to almost any emergency. No
matter how we'll rough might box, he
would have no chance to get in a blow
and he would be powerless to protect
himself from terrible punishment in
the shape of thrusts or prods, and while
staggering from the effects of these he
would receive blows on the head and
face that would speedily dispose Of him.
Furthermore, the pupils are taught how
to trip an adversary up and throw him
with the handle of the umbrella, and
how to throw him, should he close
| after the manner Of the Japanese. A
combined knowledge of the laws OF
dynamics and anatomy can always de-
feat mere strength, and In street fight
where the Queensberry rules Of the ring
are not observed the skilled pugilist
| would be at the mercy Of the girl who
understands these arts and possesses
| the nerve to put them to practical &C
count.

Q-Is newspaper advertisement
OF as much value in selling goods as
an artistic show window? A
good show window is an ideal adver-
tisement, but the people have to go
and see it and they don't all do it.
The right kind of a newspaper adver-
tisement takes your show window
into the homes of the people.
Q-1s there any use in advertis-
ing in other ways than through news
papers? A-Many kinds OF adver-
tising are good if they are used to
supplement newspaper advertising;
no kind of advertising is worth con-
sidering which seeks to take its
place.
Q-When no immediate returns
can be traced, does that mean that
the advertisement is failure? A
No advertisement which has been
read by and has made any impres
sion on fair number of people is
failure. Seed time must be all the
time; harvest time will not fail.
Q-When dull day follows a Wig
orous advertising campaign, what
then? A.-When dull day comes
to merchant in spite OF vigorous
advertising it means that it would
have been calamitous day without
the advertising.
Q-Ifa a merchant stops advertis-
ing and finds that his business still
prosp ers, what does it mean? A
If a merchant stops advertising
and still prospers, what then?
You can stop eating-for a while;
you can recover from illness without
doctor-sometines, but doctors
and food are good things, just the
same.
Q-When a business is enjoying
a healthy, normal growth, is it wise
to try to force it through additional
newspaper advertising? All the
growth of your business entirely sat
ishes you, if every business day is as
good as it ought to be or might be,
then your advertising is probably
ample. Kingston IN. W Freeman.

THE EDITOR AND THE MERCHANT.

Sioux Falls Argus: Several of
the daily newspapers of the state,
and a considerable number of the
weeklies have been speaking up
in behalf of the big department
stores and catalog houses. Only
a few years ago, the newspapers
of the state were opposed to those
outside houses and refused to
print their advertising. This was
on the theory that their own mer-
chants were entitled to the trade
of the vicinity, and that a news
paper which is gettingits support
out Of a community should do
nothing to injure it.
But the newspapers which are
accepting advertising from the
catalog houses, and which advo-
cate the parcels post bill, are not
to be denounced too readily. They
complain that their local mer-
chants will not advertise while
the outsiders will, The editor
argues that he has as good a right
to do business proftably as the
merchant has. If then the local
merchant figures that he can get
all the trade he wants without
the use Of the local newspaper,
the editor argues that he surely is
following the lesson if he takes
what advertising is offered. The
net effect of this will be bad both
for the local merchant and for the
local editor, for the refusal of the
first to offer his bargains through
the local medium, and the accept
ance by the editor OF competitive
advertising from the department
stores outside, will very shortly
divert from the community much
money, and in turn hurt both.
Still the merchant cannot blame
the editor, tor the latter has as
good right to do a profitable busi-
ness as has the merchant.
This question has never arisen

merchants long ago learned the

where the percentage Of business

seek Our merchants know the
value of printers ink, their bar
ga,ns are offered to the public day

some of the merchants in the
towns referred to- would initiate
their Sioux Falls brethren, the
situation would improve both for
the editor and for the merchant,
and everybody IN the community
would be better off!

WHAT HICKS SAYS.

For the balance of this month
the Rev. Irl Hicks prognosticates
as follows:
A reactionary storm period is
central on the 14th, 18th and 10th,
calling for moderation of the cold
and return of cloudlness, falling
barometer and more rain and
snow. The conjunction of moon
with the sun, or new moon on the
18th will tend greatly to prolong
disturbed and threatening wealth
er quite into the regular storm
period following. Careful obser-
vatlous will prove that the new
moon periods are attended, as a
rule, by higher temperatures and
lower atmospheric pressure; hence
when the new moon intervenes at
the end of a storm period, rising
barometer and change to colder,
clearing weather are retarded and
prevailing storm conditions are
prolonged.
A regular storm period covers
the 18th to 23rd. The moon is in
apogee and on the celestial equa-
tor on the 10Th. and these facts,
especially at this central part of
the venus disturbance, call for a
prompt and decided development
of low barometer, rising tempera-
ture and winter storms on and
following the 10Th. On aud about
the 10Th even winter lightning
and thunder are probable, with
heavy wind and rain south
ward. But storms will turn to
snow and billiards. during the
last half OF the period-say from
the 10th to the 23rd and driving,
blizzardous cold wave will sweep
over most parts of the continent.
The 25th, 10th and 9th are
central days of a reactionary
storm period. On and touching
these days the cold will relax. the
barometer will fall, cloudiness
will gather in the west. and more
rain and snow will pass east.
wardly over most parts of the
country. Another change te
much colder will come in from
west and north behind these
storms, lasting up to the 3oth
and 31st. Under the combined
influence of the vulcan and mer.
curry periods, January will go ou1

to organlze in western extremes
