CHARACTER FROM THE EYE
Those Who VIII Take the Trouble to
Observe May Tell Much About
Their Associates.

Beware of the shifting. f~altering
eyes that always look away from you
Small eyes usually mean an alert
mind.
If they look straight at you. STEADY
and bright, like a squirrels. you may
expect the right sort of c!everness. a
quick tongue and a gift for rcpartee.
But if the small eyes are more dim
and do not look straight into yours,
you may look for the wrong KIND OF
cleverness, for little dishonesties and
equivocations, and for q business
sharpness that is willing to sacrifice
too much for q little money.
Large, tranquil" "cowlike'' eyes, on
the ether hand. are less responsive
than the alert, bright little beady eyes;
but, once stir them to their depths. aud
they will look infinitely more intense
and meaningful thar the moro i'm.
pulsive eyes.
Round, protruding eyes show an am
bilious nature and a love of action.
The longer eyes show more the TEN.
permanent of the dreamer.
The most beautiful eyes in the world
are very clear (that indicates good
health, and are set widely apart and
rather deep. That width of setting al.
ways gives a certain expression OF
sweet spirituality.

From the World outlook.
In the city, Curityba, badly perceived
is the want of good water, paved
streets and of culverts, by which some
times appear typhus fevers which.
however, fortunately never take larger
dimensions. In the last five years the
town rose extraordinary; it is illum-
mated by electric light, got a tram
railway which cars brings the city in
connection with the external suburbs,
and it got also a public garden through
which flows several times the rivulet
Belem.
The River Parana, is the most wa
terry in the state, and one of the most
extended in the world. 1t is navi-
gable until to this state for ships Of
great prcfoundness; it is also suf-
ficiently fshful.
Everybody who passes through his
state gets in ectasy at the contempla-
ton of it's green and peopled plains,
in their undulation. of it's dense woods
of pine trees, of it's abundant forest of
wood and precious plants, and finally,
its riches in the mineral and animal
regions. The vegetable reign is ex-
c~essively represented in %resinous, oily
n gummous plants, N the animal
reign is richly represented by all kinds
Of quadrupeds. birds. insects, snakes,
reptiles and fishes.
We can affirm Of Parana that it steps
forward in such a remarkable way that
it car be calculated for the most i'm.
portant state of this republic.

HIGH PRICES
GOOD CROPS
And Good Demand for All Farm
Products.

1t is no new experience for settlers
located IL a fertile country such as
Western Canada, where lands NAV ho
bought at very reasonable prices. to
harvest a crop that in one season pavs
the entire cost of their farm. Undouht-
eddy his was the experience of many
farmers during 1915, but one instance
may be quoted. A settler who came
to Canada from the United States
some ears ago decided to add to his
holdings by buying an adjoining quar-.
ter section near his home at Warner.
at $1,000 an acre, with terms spread
over a period Of years. He got the
land into a good state of cultivation
and last spring put the whole quarter
section IN wheat. When the crop was
threshed he found that it only took
half the wheat on the farm to paw the
whole purchase price Of it: in short
a single years crop paid the cost of
the land, paid all the expenses of or
GRAFTON and left him a handsome sur
plus as profit. This settler had some
adjoining land, and his whole wheat
crop for the season amounted to
over $4,000 bushels. He is now plan.
ming to obtain some sheep and invest
his profits in live stock which will as.
sure him a good living irrespective of
what the season may happen to be.
Canada's financial position is ex-
cellent. All speculation has been elm
mated, and trading is done on a cash
basis, with restricted credit.
Detailed figures of Canada's trade
for twelve months ending October 81
show how the war is forcing Canadian
trade into new channels. One of the
most extraordinary changes is in COM
merce with the United States. A
couple Of years ago Canada imported
from the United States two or three
hundred million dollars worth Of
goods more than she exported. The
balance of trade was all with the
United States. The balance is rapid
ly disappearing, and the present out
look is that by the end of this year
Canada will have exported to the
United States more than she has i'm
ported.
The figures for the past four years
are Illuminating. They are as fol.
lows:
Exports. Imports.
1912 .s145, 721,6 $50 $412,6 57, O22
1918 ........ 179, 050,7 442,341,S $40

1915 ........ 3l4.11S,774 346, 569, 1924
Four years ago, in 1912, the balance
Of trade in favor Of the United
States was no less than two hundred
and siXty-seven millions, and this
year, the balance is reduced to only
thirty-two millions. The figures are
extraordinary and reflect the changed
and new conditions in Canada. 1t
looks as if for the first time in nearly
half a century this year Canada will
sell more to the United States than
she will buy from the Americans

without wireless and often get in trouble
at points several miles from telephone

has to depend more upon moving about
on the lookout for vessels in trouble than
shc does upon her wireless.

by the Apache have been instructed to

more for aid should they get in trouble.
and he will get in touch with the Apache

SAYS U. S. HOLDS TITLE.
Clothing Of National Guardsmen
Does Not Belong to Them.

Judge Advocate General Crowder OF
the army has given an opinion that the
title to the clothing of enlisted men of
the National Guard on their muster out
of federal service is in the United
States.
an view of the fact that a soldier
of the National Guard or organized
militia says Gen. Crowder. upon
muster out of the federal service is not
finally discharged, but is merely re-
leased from federal National Guard. it
is the opinion of this office that the
title of the clothing continues to be in
the United States, and that no change
in the title results from the muster
out settlement by virtue of which the
soldier is rewarded for any economy
exercised in the use and care of the
clothing while in the service of the
United States. Under this view the
clothing issued to him continues avail
able for his use while member of the
National Guard or organized militia,
and settlement with the state can be
made on the basis of replacing the
clothing which was issued to the state
and was brought with the militia into
the federal service by the clothing in
the possession of the militia upon going
out of such service
