TOLD BY THE EYE
"lndex of the SOUP Reveals True
Character.
To the Initiated, the Human Eye De-
notes the Workings Of the Con-
sclous and SubconscIous Mind,
as Nothing Else Can.

The eye has been called "the index
of the SOUL" and with much truth.
Yet how often is 1t consulted, and
how many of us have sufficient knowl-
edge to enable us to read it Alright? ?
In these days of unsOlved crime
mysteries, ability to read the charac,
ter more or less accurately from the
eyes is a possession worth having, as

Ing that human eyes, like those OF
animals, denote the working Of the
conscience and subconscious mind.
Perpetrators of recent murders, If

Eyes cannot be influenced In color
by the mind. Dark. flashing eyes can-
not be made blue, any more than the
alcoholic can show eyes like the abb
stainer. A patient consulting his doe
tor may not think his illness can be
diagnosed by his eyes, yet it is useless
for him to say he sleeps soundly when
his eyes show the contrary
Looking at the eyes Of people you

Lucky are women with blue eyes.
They are sweet tempered. If married,
they will prove amiability itself, and.
fond Of children. their sphere Is in
the house, or the finer work of the
drawing-room.
Gray eyes are ascribed to officers
Of rank, politicians. and judges. Gray
eyes are stern and commanding, show
ing forceful and dominant will, with
great powers Of persuasion.
IF the eyes be full and prominent,
with a CLASSY appearance, the opposite
is found; this type Is not reliable, can
not stand strain, Is never fOrceful,
perhaps good workman, but useless
as a master. The owner of such an
eye is usually an egotist, not liking
people who hold different views. With
out being inclined to crime he lacks
determination.
A little study soon defines the crimf>
nal eye, which will not look anybody

what is known as furtive glance;
when doing this, he calculates his
chances of success.
In ladies, gray eyes are not an as

class is Jealous before marriage; after,
she will ruin anybody who tries to
come between them. She delights In
children and dress. Dark eyes are not
stronger than other colors, as Is COM

The next study requires care to
judge, or mistakes will result. This Is
the small, black, beady eye, set deep
in the head, never seeming to be prop

The true hazel eye Is seldom seen.
This denotes, In both sexes, imagina-
