LANGUAGE OF THE EYEBROWS.
German Way Of Determining DISPOSE.
tions and Temperaments.

The eyebrows, declares q German
character reader. tell us far more
about the true inwardness Of our dis
positions and temperaments than all
the rest of the body. Study the eye
brow formation Of your friends and
you will find that where the indica-
tons are similar like personal char
acteristics will declare themselves,
says the New York World. Thus you
will discover that the highly arched
eyebrow denotes a sensitive tempera-
ment, although, contrary to the gener-
al opinion, they do not always adorn
persons of superior intelligence. Thin
eyebrows invariably show a lack of
vitality and those of the thick and
oushy variety indicate the existence
in their possessors of highly vital
lied temperament together with great
powers of bodily endurance In wom-
en- they. denote unusual powers of
bodily and mental stamina,
When the eyebrows meet, says our
German friend, you may be certain
that a sincere character is expressed,
though here 1t is interesting to re-
CALL iiiClueutdlly, IndL every character
reader since the days of Aristotle has
declared that such eyebrows indicate,
unquestionably, peevish disposition.
Long, dropping eyebrows, wide apart
on the forehead, indicate a joyous dis
position and general amiabiiity. If
the eyebrows are more light -colored
than the hair of the head, distinctly
weak vitality is denoted. Lightly
marked eyebrows, which lie high
above the nose, show a disposition
toward Incidence and d general weak
ness of character. Dark eyebrows,
which lend so strong and energetic an
expression to the whole face, are m
dicative OF patience.
Rarely will you find in persons Of
sharp intellect eyebrows of a light COL
or, although tire color does not ccUnt
so much as the shape. Red eyebrows
invariably indicate considerable ambi-
ton. The average eyebrow is a COM
bination Of black and red.

He Meant Well.

olate-and-egg when suddenly the glass
broke in his hands, and the ensuing
deluge made him look like a human

The Mortified customer leaned over

Not knowing exactly what to say, he
finally blurted out:
"Oh!-er-toO bad-did the glass

Dripping chocolate from head to
