How Msn Choose wives.

Pearson, Of University College, Lon
don, yesterday, at the Royal Iustitu-
tion.
He maintained that man has an un-
conscious tendency to select wife Of
his own height, with eyes Of his own
color, proportionate span from fore.
iueer to fc1eGnger, forearm corre-
spending to his ewn, and coustitu-
sion Of like physical vigor.
These theories he expounded by
means CT tables aud diagrams. Among
every thousand men the color of the
eyes is divided as follows: Blue 363,
green 312. hazel l27, brown 94.
The eyes of women are generally
darker, only 2S6 of them in every
thousand having blue ones. If these
the result would be that they would
mate at the rate of 104 per 1000; but
he had discovered that the actual

number of marriages per LOCO Of blue
eyed persons was 140, or 36 above the
random average, thus proving that
the blue.eyed man and the blue-eyed
woman are unconsciously attracted to.

men with greenish gray or hazel eyes
tend to marry women With eyes Of
like color. The average height Of q
man he gave as from 81 to 6s inches,
iand that Of a'woman as 62 1.2 inches,
and he eontended that the average
tall man has tall wife, and the short
man short wife.
"One' could hardly imagine man
choosing wife by measuring her
from fore6nger to foreGnger,' said The
professor; yet his diagrams demon

One Of the valiant officers Of the
American navy is Rear Admiral
Robley D. Evans, still in the service.
Until recently he has been cruisipg in
Oriental waters.
Some years ago, st dinner given
him in New York by q few personal
friends, the Admiral, in telling how
he came go to sea, illustrated what
work will do for any ambitious boy.
He said:
Twas born In country, or Sec
tion of this country, where the people
were poor and their sons poorer.
Every boy worked, or was supposed to
work.
i was pretty small boy when I
ssook il into my head that it was not
healthy for me to work. I thought
chat to play oil the time would just
about suit me, aud one day I frankly
told my father so. / can we'll remem-
ber that at the moment he said moth
ing, but that evening after supper he
brought me to his knee and asked:
g You feel you oughtn't to work?'
i nodded my head. Then he went
on:
Well, I'm going to let you do
juat what you think is right in the
matter, but I only want 70 say this:
The 3nile aud poorhouses are generally
filled with people who wouldn't work
when they could. IL you want 60 be
Q misery-maker, go ahead; but think
it over before you etart in that d.
reetion.'
81 did think it over. When Twas

running errands, che words would
come into my head, 'misery-maker,' !

ST did go ahead. I worked hard at
all hours, trying to improve myself,
and when I decided that I would like
TO be sailor, and told my people SO,
the one Injunction I got was:
/" We'll, work.

worked I Ibeoame more skillful, and
being that, I commanded more respect
from my superiors. I learned to do
my duty under the law Of work, and
all my life ithas bess the no most help

Let me Cell you, gentlemen, that
where you find q boy who will work,
and whotdoes Eork, you will find one

cant allrisc 70 high Office, but we can
all rise to Che honorable level OF being
capable and intelligent workers for
Snraelyes and others. n n9
