Like Father Like Son.

Four-year-old Clyde was precocious
ngster-very talkative and a close
observer. He and his father were
strolling through the meadows one
morning when Clyde observed for the
first time some tadpoles in a pond. He
waded in and cried out, "Oh, father,
what are they?''
''Tadpoles, son." the father replied.
please, father, let's take them all
home with us, then come back and
find the mamma and papa, and we'll
have the whole family in our pond at
home"
The father explained how impossible
this would be, and as they walked on
few steps large, ugly frog hoped
across their path. Clyde's father said:
look, son. Perhaps there is the pa

Clyde was very thoughtful. He look

at himself and exclaimed:

Clouds and the Weather.

When two weather prophets disa-
gree does it argue error or incompe-
tence in either? No, says the author
Of "Storms and Storm Signals" in
Yachting. The data upon which they
base their predictions do not always
bear one Interpretation. Thus:
Because the clouds indicate weather
In different manner according to. the
geographical location Of the observer,
and also because they are in them
selves but byproducts Of the weather
and are not causes, weather predic-
tons from clouds at sea should be tax
en- with plenty of reservation of judg-
ment. To say, for instance, that at q
'red sky at night sailors delight is
very tuneful and possibly truthful
where knowledge Is conspicuous by its
absence, but red sky at night may
mean almost anything from a surplus
Of moisture in the air, meaning prob
ably rains, to volcanic eruption 1000
miles away which has sent great
clouds of dust into the air, causing the
red color by reflection and refraction
e the light rays.

The EYES,.

"Long, almond shaped eyes, with
thick and creamy lids covering half
the pupil and with a forehead that is
full above the brows-there you have
the eye Of the man of genius" The
speakers own eyes answered that de-
scription strikingly, but he was far
from being Il man of genius, being, in
fact, magazine editor.
"Protruding eyes," he went on,
''show mental and bodily weakness.
Eyes close together denote cunning.
Those far apart denote liberality. Thin
lashes without any upward curve to
them and thin brows poorly marked
are signs Of melancholy and indeci-
sion. The eyes of voluptuary move
slowly under heavy lids. Those of a
miser are small, deep sunken and blue,
set in bony and perpendicular fore
head. The most beautiful eyes-large,
brilliant and clear, gsancing and fash
ing with rapid motion-the most
beautiful eyes denote elegance Of taste,
gayety, some selfishness and great
interest in the opposite sex."-New

In this sentence Senator La Toilette
sums up this analysis of the new tar

1ette's Weekly Magazine. The "pro-
gressive' senator from Wisconsin de-
clares that ''the kind of revision de-
manded, promised, accepted, voted for
and decreed at the polls has not been
even partly complied WITH" that the
duties on articles of general use have
been treated to "sleight of hand re-
duction'' that will permit the charg-
ing Of exorbitant prices and that the
American people will judge the tariff
law by it's effect upon the bills which
the consumer pays.
