HOUSE BUILDING IN KOREA
Operations Always Begun by the Con-
struction of Most Ingenious
System Of Fiues.

When q Korean begins to build a
house he first lays down a system Of
fues where the floor is to be- These
fiues begin at a fireplace, usually
built in an outer shed or in a closed
alleyway connected with the house.
From the fireplace the fiues branch
out like the ribs of fan and end in
trench at the back of the floor space.
This trench, in turn, opens into a
chimney, usually built at some dis
lance from the house. When the flues
are completed the builder carefully
covers them over with flagstones; he
then cements the whole floor and COW
ers it with a sort of thick oiled paper
for which Korea is famous. The rest
of the house is then built round the
completed floor.
The heating system works in this
way: When it is time to cook the rice
for the morning meal the housewife
lights a little straw or brushwOOd in
the fireplace in the outer shed. While
the rice is cooking the heat from the
fireplace passes through the flues,
heating the stone flags of the floor
and diffusing pleasant warmth that
lasts unit it is time to prepare the
next meal. Two heatings a day gen
orally suffice to keep the floor warm.
On the floor the people sit by day and
sleep by night. The heavy oiled paper
that covers the floor prevents any
smoke from entering the room.

GIVE INSIGHT TO CHARACTER
Shape Of Eyebrows Reveal Vigor, In
sincerity, Lack Of Vitality, and
Many Other Things.

It is now conceded that the Greek
eyebrow is quite in accord with the
conception of mere physical beauty in
women. Like the rosebud mouth, it
does not indicate the highest order of
intelligence and the arch is expressive
always Of greater sensibility and great
er sense of character, says London
Tit-Bits.
Scant growth of the eyebrows invari-
ably denotes lack Of vitality; on the
contrary, heavy, thick eyebrows indi-
cate a strong constitution and great
physical endurance. They are not
beautiful on a woman's face, however
much they may signify either mental
or bodily vigor, and when they are not
only heavy, but droOp and meet at
the nose, they are sagreeable and are
said to accompany an insincere and
prying nature.
Romantic women usually have very
Well-defined arch in the center of the
eyebrow, while q sense of humOr is in
dicated in the arch nearer the nose.
Long, dropping eyebrows, lying wide
apart, indicate an amiable disposition.
Where the eyebrows are lighter in col
or than the hair, the indications are lack
Of vitality and great sensitiveness.
Family defined eyebrows placed high
above the nose are signs of Incidence
and weakness.
Very black eyebrows give the face an
intense and searching expressing:
when natural, they accompany a pas
slOnate temperament. Very light eye
brows rarely are seen on strongly intel
lectual faces, although the color of the
eyebrows is not accepted simply as de-
noting lack of intelligence; the form
gives the key to the faculties and their
direction. Red eyebrows denote great
fervor and ambition; brown, a medium
between red and black.
