March previous. and I shall never forget how happy I was to read that J. Proctor Knott was our candidate for Congress in the Fourth district I was in the "bloody old Third" where the democratic candi- date was the very lion of democracy, Elijah Hise, Beck was nominated in the Ashland district. Of course we elected everything, but they stole one district and kept it.
 Knott was triumphantly elected. Since he died the other day I have read notices of him in numerous newspapers, some of 'em Kentucky papers and no one had his career right. He was elected to the F or tieth Congress. and reelected to the Forty-first Congress. He would have been continued in Congress had he been capable of shaking hands for vote. He was out for years. giving place to a man with a voice and stature. But Knott came back and could have con tined in Congress till the day of his death had he elected to do so. I strove with him to that end; but like Benton McMillin, he thought that the way to the United States Senate was through the executive mansion of his state, and he was elected governor in 1885, It was hts political undoing.

He slapped me on the back and said: You scamp, have you read that? It the grandest of ali state papers and the greatest demo- cratic stump speech ever made" And that Is true. That opinion of "Old Lige" Hise ought to be a text book in every school. No lawyer can afford 10 be ig

 But I would love to say something about the man. A long lime ago when was a travelling newspaper man in Louisville I was member of the Patch Work club, that met at old Joe Alex ander's tavern, and never had it's like between earth and sky. I'll bet it was the only hotel in the world that would have tolerated us Chaucer lived to. soon. We sat in the chairs, while the guests stood up and around.

Her eyes in heaven
 Would through the airy region stream so
 bright,
 That birds would sing and think it were
 not night"
 But while this is true, poetically, divide the face, and you will find that while one eye may remind you of heaven, the other eye, in the same face, may bring thoughts of the other place. This is one reason why in any rogue's gallery you may see two profiles, besides the full face, of the same criminals; one picture of the right side, another of the left.
 Take the mouth as another illustration. The ideal mouth forms a Cupid's bow. the arms of which extend equally toward the right and left. But as a matter of fact all mouths do not. Many are one-sided and have larger lips on one side than on the other. Some mouths, also, on one side of the face trace a downward line, while on the other side they extend up- ward. The depression at the ends of the lips frequently are dissimlar.
 The nose is supposed to describe straight line in the middle of the face, but the noses of five people out of every 15 defect to the right or to the left You may not have observed it, but having read this paper observe carefully the noses of the people you meet. and you will be astonshed at the number of them that seem to be set wrong. The thin nose, be- longing to a person of delicate physical structure, is more apt to be awry than others. This feature makes a vast differ ence in the appearance of the sides of the face. AS an indicator of character phys iognomists give great value to the nose. It is said that Napoleon chose the mem bers of the Old Guard because of the big ness of their noses. By the way, does the reader recall Laurence Sterne's tale of the man with the big nose? It is one of the funniest productions in Tristram

 It was confidently asserted that the Lords would insist on defying the lib- erals, even to the forcin gof the crea- ton of 500 radical peers. Lord Rose would have greatly preferred this method. reductio ad absurdum of re- form. But he also confesses that prac- tical jokes are kittle cattle, and may need dehorning in the interest of their perpetrators With 300 radical peers added imm mediately to the Upper House what extremes, what monstrosities of legislation might not be rushed through in the life of the present parliament? Is it not better to stay grilling in the frying pan than to leap into so very hot a fire?
 From my London paper I am able to

make the following quotation, credited to a conservative organ, none other in deed than the Daily Telegraph Car ried, and without divisionl That such should have been the lot of the second reading of Bill which, as Lord Rose bery said, and Lord Lansdowne and his phalanx of Unionist Peers believed is meant to efface and degrade the House of Lords, would have been declared impossible and preposterous year or two ago. But during the last few weeks 1t has been seen to be inevitable, and the unpalatable idea, It first rejected with 1oathing, has been slowly and re- luctantly accepted" In the same paper Is this from Matthew Arnold, applic- able after more than 30 years: Tt is the old story of the incapacity of aris- tocraces for ideas-the secret of their want of success in modern epochs."
 Slowly and relunctanty," therefore the aristocracy of England, immune to ideas marches past there in the Vest minister arena, chanting their "Morituri Salutamus." In its way this Is epoch making, a sad and melancholy exhibi- ton, the absorption of Runnymede and Hastings, Agincourt and Greasy, in a mere beanfield, thus expensively fertil- ized to grow the popular eugenics of today

The result I shal give here after. I want first to make several state ments which the reader can test for him self, or, perhaps, he has already done so
 It Is an unusual thing to find a face that appears to have the same lines of expression on the right that it has on the left side. Any observant photographer will tell you the same thing. A few fa- miiar faces, perhaps. are the same on both sides. Washington's, Gladstone's, Lees, the present Pope's' and the late Queen Victoria, are cases in point. There are, doubtless, many others; but as rule with men there is a marked differ ence between the right and left sides of the face. Two remarkable illustrations are found in the faces of MT Lincoln and General Grant. All are familiar with

A WOMAN'S FACE-By Dr. w. E. Evars

money matters, especially if his nose is thin He will not be true to a trust. Being a woman, I should pronounce her treacherous and unsafe as a friend. She can die with a secret locked up in her heart, but can, also, for slight cause, dis close that secret. The lines of the mouth tend downward. Her temperament, there fore, is cold and calculating She knows nothing of the highest forms of love. or give-and-tal<e love she is ignorant. She will love as long as her will dominates another, but difference of opinion, of judgment, or conduct held by another will turn her quality of love into harsn- ness and into the sulks. Her chin dom mates her face. She loves authority and exercises it severely upon underlings. If she were man and a married man at that, she would make life miserable for the woman. All that the wife did must be as he demanded He would be a ty- rant.
 The right eye Is penetrative, the left eye is full of cunning. The combination is most happy. She will lay plans that seem not at all related to her purposes she will then, when her aims are ready, proceed surely to her designs. Nothing is too sacred to be crushed, if it shall stand in the way of her desires. The eyes are not of the same angle, the left being much higher than the right. The left is the side of affection. But here the affections are misplaced. There is one dominating love that mars the character. In men 1t often stands for undue love of money or for an illicit love; and in wom- en for ambitious ends at any cost.
 There is a sneer-lne making from the lobe of the nose. This is often seen in narrow-minded people. It is d sign of egotism. It means that one has but a poor opinion of anyone who dares to think as he does not. Ne always thinks others insncere. because he himself Is not true It is sign of self-assertion, van

K TTsTUR EDD1TUR; The glorius 4th M of July has cum and gone. The ! A returns frum the back counties air not all in yet, but, so far we have evvery reesun to beleeve that the ussuai list of casualties will equal if not exceed all previus records, proving that our grate commonwealth is not falling be- hind enny in trew patryotism. and that this grate Nashiona hollyday was sele- brated in dew and ancient form, as be- fitting libberty luving and feerless pee pull.
 On the 4th of July, 1776, our forefathers gathured themselves togethur in libberty hall phladelphur, and cracked few ap- propriate jokes and the Bell of Libberty and passed a set of ressolusionS, now known as the declarason of independ- ance, hurling defiance as Monarchies in genneral, and tho British Monarchy in pertickuler, which as defiances go, cer- tainly was a classy dockumint, and had the immediate effect of causing the Brit tisn Lion to Quail. This brought on wah: buddy relentless wah,- and. our forefa- thers being rite handy with squirril rifles, they proceeded to ''show up the trained soldiers of the British Empire, and George Washington becum at one and the same time the Fathur of his Country, and the Execusioner of England's cor rupt rule ovver sovverain and free peepul (Jo Cannun) and the sratest Re- public the world has evver known was born-and turned ovver to the trusts. Still we air not happy.
 Evver sents that time on each recur- ring 4th of July, we gathur ourselves to- gethur and Prize up Cane and for weeks aftur we air engaged in gathuring up the remains. Unless we do so our patryotism would get stale and wain, and we would drift into indiffurence, and perhapes a cruel King would cum ane rain over us. who would not let us vote
