THE FOREHEAD.
What Its Size and Shape Are Said to
Indicate.

What Its Size and Shape Are Said to
Indicate.
A high forehead to be very good
should be we, developed about the
eyebrows.
Breadth of forehead is always favor
able. 1t is distinctly connected with
breadth of character.
A forehead that curves back reveals
q poetic temperament, fondness for
the arts and n talent for either music
or painting.
OF course a broad forehead may be
part Of weak face, and weak chin
and mouth will naturally give a truer
impression of character than even a
combination of a narrow forehead
with an otherwise strong face.
II there is quite a perceptible bulge
of the eyebrows. combined with high
forehead, the sign is of calm. cool,
deliberate thinker.
If with these eyebrows is ombined
a forehead that slopes gradually back,
a sensitive, poetic temperament is dis
closed. If, again, they are combined
with a short. narrow forehead, the
subject will be successful in business
and in everything connected with
worldly matters, but he will be in
capable of approaching to any extent
or of creating anything connected with
the arts.-New York American.

Gould has watched for them in squir-
rels that use their front paws to hold
nuts, cats that strike at insects In the

many other animals, but he is certain
no preference is given to the right side
over the left.
But in the lowest human savages all
over the world choice in greater ex-
pertness of one hand is clearly present
One cause for its development is in
primitive military customs. In all
tribes and countries since man used
implements of offense and defense the
left side. where the heart lies. has been
protected by the shield, and the left
hand was called the shield hand, while
the right hand was called the spear
hand.

Weishty Problems That Arc Puzziin9
Our English Cousins.

Weighty ProbIens That Are Puzziing
Our English Cousins.
A problem is put forward by a writer
in a contemporary which gives food
for thought. 1t is this: Suppose by
some combinat ton of circumstances you
We're faced by the alternative of wear
Which would be the better way out Of
ito wear a bowler or a tall hat? AS
the writer justly remarks, if you wear
bowler then the thing you have to
explain away is the coat. If you wear
a tall hat, you have only the boots to
account for. We should advise those
of our readers who find one morning
that all the wearing apparel in the
house had beer stolen during the night
with the exception of a frock coat,
waistcoat, trousers, shirt, collar, vest,
tie. pair Of brown boots and two hats
one tall. the other round-to cut the
Gordian knot by staying In bed. An
other of LIES dilemmas which may
face the traveller down the world s
dusty highway has to do with collars.
Suppose on arriving at house for a
week end and starting to dress for
dinner you find that your evening col
lars have got wetted by your sponge
or otherwise defaced. Should you wear
a clean double collar or a dirty ortho-
dox evening collar? In the former case
you will be natty, but a thing Of
loathing to all properly constituted
men. In the latter you will give the
impression that you cannot afford the
services of a laundry.-London Globe.

See if You Can UntansIe the Knots In
This Problem.
A young man named Enathlus de-
sired to learn eloquence and art Of
pleading, and he bargained with Pro-
tagoras, the ancient Greek sophist, for
instructions. agreeing to pay one half
of the fee down and the other half on
the first day he gained case. 1t took
the young man so long to learn that
his tutor came to the conclusion that
he was delaying his start in business
to avoid paying the other half of the
fee, so Protagoras sued him for the
money.
When the case came up for trial Pro-
tagoras said to the young man: You
act most absurdly, young man, be-
cause in either case you must pay me.
If the judges decide against you, you
must pay, and if they decide for you
you must pay, for you will then have
gained your case"
You are wrong" replied the young
man. Il will win either way. If the
judges are for me. / will not have to
pay, and If they are against me I will
not have to pay, for this last was the
very bargain between us-namely, If
did not win my case"
The judges considered the case mex
plicable, and as they could not see
their way to any decision they ad.
journed the case to a day that never
came for any of the principals. On
Protagoras' side it was a case of los
ing when he won and on the young
students side winning when he lost.

NAPOLEON'S HABITS.
The Great Warrior Was Fond of Per-
fume and Clean Linen.

fume and Clean Linen.
1t is pleasant to learn il one has Ma
poleon |. on the hero list that he had
tiers; that he was fastidiously clean tn
his person. according to an article in
French contemporary, and poured eau
de cologne into the water he washed
in, then sponged his head with per-
fume and finally poured the remainder
of the contents of the flask over his
neck and shoulders. He was also ex-
travagantly fond of clean linen and
during his campaigns had relays of it
sent to different places. In those days
it did not cost farm to have starched
things Numbered, for, in account with
a famous laundress in Paris, the en-
peror's linen for one wash amounted to
3S6 pieces and cost only a trife over
$50.
This strikes an American as very
reasonable, but his majesty never wore
any article but once. and. as he always
undressed himself without aid from
his valet, his garments were literally
cast to the four corners Of the room.
Napoleon's bill for eau de cologne,
however, exceeded the washerwoman's
by large majority. 1t is a relief to
learn that the Little Corporal was so
much a dude. Some Of his predecessors
in the Tuileries were not blessed with
such excellent habits if history is to be
relied upon.

A wealthy New York lawyer sat up
late one night writing letters he had
not been able to finish during the day.
1t was past midnight when he went out
to mail them, and when he returned
and was undressing he paused in dis
may, missing a check for large sum
received during the day and taken
home with him. In vain was the house
ransacked at that late hour. He went
to bed convinced that the lost check
must be in the house. An hour later
he fell into uneasy slumber and beheid
as with bis eyes of the flesh the pink
check curfed about an area railing four
or five doors from his own house.
So real was the dream that the trou-

Su-a To Be There.

An old Scotch farmer was lying on
what he thought was his deathbed He
began to give orders to his wife about
his funeral and the people to be invit-

dying, paid but little attention to his
requests, and this so enraged the farm
er that he rose on his elbow and cried
out:
What need i speak? There'n be
naething dune RIGHT unless I'm there

His wife. patting him on the shout,

The Dau Morland Painted.

OF the many stories Of the seemingly

dogs none is Iuoue interesting than the
one concerning the noble dog which
Morland afterward painted.
When William Phillips, bathing at
Portsmouth, ventured beyond his depth
and was drowning. two boatmen, in
stead of setting out to his rescue, bag
gled about reward from the bystand-

Phillips rescue. In the midst Of the
controversy Newfoundland dog
leaped into the water and brought the
exhausted bather to shore. Mr.. Phil

honor of his rescper.
