Have you not met the girl who draws
her face into all sorts of understandable
shapes and wrinkles when she talks? L
heard a girl one day last week telling or
the misfortune of a friend and the man
ner In which she contorted her face. made
me think she, too, was suffering just as
her friend did. Her grimaces fairly fas-
cinated me. and before l knew 1t I was
paying more attention to her facial ex-
pressions than to what she was telling me.
The girl who has learned the art of
controlling her features perfectly has,
without doubt. gained an advantage over
all the other women of her acquaintance
One may be described as beautiful or
ugly, commonplace or interesting, refined
or otherwise, by the way she uses her
features.
A perfectly calm countenance. without
any semblance of expression to brighten
1t, is apt to pail On people. There are any
number of this type, as well as the count
less number of women who glory in the
extremes of expression. There is a happy
medium between these two, which the
woman who hopes for success should dis
cover and cultivate.
One common error into which many
girls fall is that of opening he mouth
wide and raising the eyebrows. They do
this to express mild establishment or pleas
ure in most cases, but 1t does more than
that, which they do not reckon on. 1t
causes the forehead to wrinkle In a man.
ner that In time leaves permanent burrows
and mars the most attractive face. Far
more attractive Is the woman who smiles
with a slight parting of the lips, at the
time raising the eyebrows ever SO
little; besides she does not risk her beauty
near so much as the woman who screws
her face into all sorts of inimitable shapes.
Learn to keep the muscles of your face
control, and, most of all, do not
your mouth and gnaw your lips
until they are thick and swollen. Be
and don't express your pain or
your pleasure in ugly grimaces II you
would be pretty.

WHY WE SHAKE HANDS,.

The Prussian officer who held 1t his duty
to kill a mere soldier who offered to shake
hands with him had a complete case, from
the official Prussian point of view. Hand
shaking implies a certain degree OF
equality, and 1t Is not possible for a Prus-
sian officer to imagine any equal except
another Prussian officer. Clearly, any act
suggesting such a thing could not be ex-
plated by any punishment short of the
immediate death of the offender.
The custom of Handwriting dates back
to prehistoric times, a relic of those
savage days when strangers could not
meet without suspicion of murderous pur-
pose. Then all men went abroad with
weapons and shields, and when they met
would stand In pleasant converse, each
with his shield Upon his left arm and with
right hands clasped so that there would
be no chance for a sudden swing of the
knife or bludgeon. The right hand was
invariably used for the weapon, with the
result that we are a r~ight-handed race.
The reason for this lay undoubtedly In the
fact that the left arm was always en-
ployed in the important work of shielding
the heart. Among the common people of
the Aryan race the old pledge of amity
in yielding the right hand to be grasped
and held has since remained the chief
token of open friendship. In the Iliad the
returning chiefs were greeted with ex-
ended hands, Even at that remote day
the early significance of the hand-clasr
had been lost in the nobler meaning OF
civilized life. But 1t remains a salutatior
in which a greater or less degree OF
equality is claimed or conceded. 1t is
therefore, possible for a humble person tc
shake hands with the President of the
United States, but 1t is not permissible fol
him to do so with an officer of the Prus-
sian army.-Harper'S Weekly.
