A GIRLS NATURE.
Little Signs That, 1t Is Said, Reveal
Phases of Character.

Little Signs That, 1t Is Said, Reveal
Phases of Character.
Much Of girls nature is betrayed
by the little act of brushing a speck
off a mans coat. If she picks off the
thread or imaginary bit of lint very
carefully between the thumb and fore
finger it is an indisputabe sign that
she is woman of very practical and
executive character.
On the other hand, if girl should
brush the coat lapel Of her fiance very
softly and tenderly with the second
and third finger of her hand in her en-
deavor to remove an invisible speck it
is a sure sign that she is more senti-
mental than practical. The man who
marries her will live in a continual at
mosphere of romance and bad house
keeping.
There is still another type of girl
coat with a broad sweep of the hand
in which all the fingers and thumb
play a part. She is in all probability
an athletic girl who eXcels at tennis,
golf and the links and who will prove
a high spirited, strong minded Woman
after marriage.
Then, again, the girl who puts q
flower in a mans coat with her hand
held jauntily upturned from the wrist
and the flower held in the tips of her
fingers is sure to be something of a
coquette, while the maid who gives
you only the tips Of her fingers when
she greets you in the drawing room or
public street is probably an ambitious
girl.-Chicago Journal.

Arsenic and Corpulence.

A curious story is reported concern
ing barque which arrived recently in
port having in her cargo three hundred
casks Of arsenic. The crew slept very
near the large array of barrels contain
ing the drug, which gave off constantly
an indescribable odor. They soon all
noticed the same thing, and several of
the tars became aware that they were
becoming abnormally stout. One man
gained twenty-five pounds. The aggre.
gate extra weight put on by the en-
tire crew was little less than four hun.
dred pounds. This was attributed to
vapor generated by the action of the
sun On the cask and inhaled by the sea.

matte life in this era of widespread in
telligence, it seems absurd. And yet
the story has gone out from Paris that
the recall of Sir Edmund Monson, the
British ambassador, is due to the COM
mon belief that he has "the evil eye"
Strange stories and odd condolences
are cited as proof of the possession by
this experienced diplomat of that opti-
cal influence so much dreaded in the
middle ages.
Nine years ago Monson was sent to
Paris. Prior to that he had been in
Belgium. While he was there many
of the mlsfortunes of that royal fam
lily occurred. The Queens unhappi-
ness was well known Her eldest
daughter, Princess Stephanie, lost her
husband, Crown Prince Rudolph,
under tragic circumstances. Her sec
ond daughter, Louise, was locked up
In an insane asylum. From Austria,
Greece and other countries where
Monson has served come similar
stories through which the supersti-
ton is interviewer. In Paris his fel-
low diplomats have fought shy of
him and social campaigns have been
curtailed from fear of his alleged
malevolent optical influence Gen
eral Porter and he have been barely
able to observe diplomatic decorum.
Archbishop Lorenzelli, the Vatican
representative and one of the ablest
speakers in Europe, once broke down
under the steady gaze of the English
man. The Italian embassy are in a
continual state of perturbation when
he is around.
These stories are widely circulated.
The truth of the matter undoubtedly
is that there is that in Monson's per-
sonality and manner which causes
embarrassment and discomfort to
those in his presence. An overbearing
disposition would have the same eff
feet as the evil eye, so called. The
strangest thing about the whole affair
is that a fiction of the middle ages
could be successfully applied in this
day. There is no doubt that Paris be-
lieves in the ''evil eye" story.

Observers are struck with the CANA

their schoolboy sons, so that their mu-

prove a safeguard against many evils
in the future. This is essentially a
modern development and stands to the
credit of the fathers of the present
