While there are several societies en-

auxiliary, the Woman s Relief corps.
The story Of the origin and history
of this body is interesting. During the
civil war many women of the north
and west united in what were known as
aid societies, for the purpose Of pro-
viding necessaries and comforts for the
men who were battling for the integ-
'rity Of the nation. While thousands
werc engaged in this work in their
homes, others risked health and life
by going into the military hospitals
and upon the battlefelds, to minister to
the sick, wounded your nIsa and md dying. . When

turned untitled for the battle of life
because of manned bodies and i'm

CHARACTER IN THE TONGUE.
Germany Has a New Way OF Sizing
Poodle Up.

From the Kansas City Journal.
Germany has taken up the rastime OF
reading character and telling fortunes by
the tongue. Somebody hae been making
study of the oreau OF speech and has dis
covered tina, it is fun of indications.
\ long tongue Is said to denote opcnless
of character, it suggests generosity and
free-handedness. It's possession makes
friends and enemies easily, but doesn't
save money.
When the tongue is long and thick tho
opcnness degencratcs into a tendency to
gossip and scandal. The future OF the
owner is bcset with troubles of his own
making. 1t also indicates tiightncss and
Inconsistency.
Short tongues indicate secrctivencss and
Discrimination Their owners make good
detectives and attorneys.
i The owner may acquire some money by
economy and guile but has not largeness
of spirit TO make Il great fortune. Very
thin pointed tongues are found in dinerent
people who do not succeed in life.
Short and broad ones craft
and f%alsehood: the person who has such
a tongue is compelled by 1t to deceive and
betray, whatever effort he may make to
keep straight.
The vibrant. quavering tongue denotes
the artistic temperament. Brilian car
mine hue is a sign OF long life. pale pink
Il denotes both weakness of charac-
ter and dclicacy of constitution.
"If It's all true" says a German news
paper. ut is lucky that it is only at the
doctor and not at our friends that We
stick out our tongues"
