CHARACTER IN FACE
READING or THE FEATURES NOW
AN txAcf science.
Temperament and Disposition Of In
dIvIduals Plainly Shown, 40
eordIno to Woman Who
Has Studied subject.

The face as map Of character and
disposition is the subject Of an elab-
crate study by an English woman.
She holds that the reading Of the fea-
lures can be reduced to an exact
science.
There is an elaborate classification
of eyes. Among the broad deduc-
tons is the dictum that dark eyes
invariably indicate a strong, passion
ate nature, while light blue ones show
calculating, cool and resolute cnar'
acter.
Light brown eyes are signs OF In
telligence, fancy, fickleness In love
and rapidly fluctuating tempera,
ment. A sure indication Of oratoricai
gift is projecting eyes and they also
betoken literary skill In the use OF
language.
A strongly developed nose Is a
mark of superior endowments' .The
owner Of big nose has more energy
than the owner Of small one.
The nostrils also have their sig
nificance. Large nostrils indicate
courage; little ones, cowardice, Long
narrow ones show activity and bodily
vigor. Broad nostrils opening toward
the side show a prediction for
horses.
Mouth and lips are full of sug-
gestiveness. The man with hang
ing underlip is apt to lack perse-
verance and concentration Of pur-
pose. The modest individuals lower
lip is habitually pressed close against
the upper lip at the center.
The chin and lower jawbone are
Important indices of character. True
love is evident in face In which the
jawbone broadens clear back to the
level of the wisdom teeth. This is
true. both of men and women.
The youth who seeks an amiable
spirit in his sweetheart must choose
girl with gently curving lower
llps and full and well rounded chin
her eyes must be soft and brown. II
he desires great constancy ne must
look carefully to the spread OF her
lower jaw. Economy is promised By a
jaw. Economy is promised BY a
widening of the nose just above the
wings of the nostrils.
On the other hand, the young WON
TN who desires an industrious hus'
band should choose man with long
upper lip. If she desires even good
temper in her spouse, she had best
choose one with round face and curly
hair.

How Rlrds Learn to sing.

Do young birds learn their songs BY
direct imitation Of their parents or Ia
the power Of song an innate quality!
Some observations made by W. H.
Hudson on q species Of tinaniou
(Rhynchotus rufescens) throw some
light on the question. This species
has peculiar and characteristic song
or call Of it's own, and according to
Mr.. Hudson's observations, 1t does not
require to learn it. A young bird was
taken from the nest when Just break
ing the shell and brought up In a
house where 1t could never have had
the chance Of hearing its parents. Yet
long before 1t was full grown 1t would
retire to a dark corner OF the room
and give its characteristic song In
great perfection. Here the song must
have been innate. The experiments
of Hon. DANES Darlington, in which
various species were reared under lin.
nets, and learned and sang the linnet
song instead Of their own, suggest, on
the other hand, that the young bird
learns by direct imitation.
