FACE TELLS TRUTH
Not lnfrequentIy Reveals Ones
Calling to Observer.
Characteristic Look Is Partly Devel-
oped by Nature of Work Which
Is Individuals Occupation.

1t seems to be pretty well agreed
among those In a position to speak
authoritatively that associated with
the various occupations in life there
is undoubtedly type Of face which
more or less betrays the calling Of its
owner.
Medical men, especially in hospital
practice, find acquaintance with these
types valuable. They may not be able,
with the shrewdness Of Sherlock
Holmes or of other acute persons, to
read a mans past, present and future
by glance at him In the street, but
they are able to gauge with consider
able accuracy how far the history Of
the case, as given by the patient, is a
truthful one, and how far it fits with
his probable occupation In life.
Calling must certainly have some in
fuence over the physiognomy Of the
cabman, the butler or the groom. Each
frequently possesses a type of face
which wears so characteristic an ex-
preston as to make 1t not difficult to
identify the vocation accompanying It..
We speak also of the legal face, the
musical face, the dramatic face and the
military face. This is merely a broad
classification, and the best authorities
disbelieve the claims of the keen OBJ
server that he can differentiate to a
finer degree.
There are tales of hospital physi-
clans who claim to be able to say from
a glance at the face that this or that
man is butcher, grocer, bank
clerk, lawyers clerk, a commercial
traveller, a stock broker, and so on
1t is thought that the fame Of these
medical men as rough and ready de-
tectives has been largely manufac-
tured for them by enthusiastic friends.
But that many medical men do possess
great insight into the occupations of
those who come before them is true.
The question is often debated wheth-
err physiognomy is growth Of voca-
ton or whether it shows that the vo-
cation chosen is in accordance with
the particular capacity and ability of
the person to whom 1t belongs. In
other words, If the lawyer does not
show the illegal face" the aspiring
minister the ecclesiastical face" the
medical student the "physicianly face"
the soldier the military face" the
question arises. Is that sign that
they have mistaken their calling?
Is the man who doesn't look a bit
like a doctor" likely to fail because
his physiognomic qualification Is want
ing? Or will he, whatever his original
features, gradually come to acquire
the type of the profession to which he
belongs?
The answer to the question is, of
course, that both theories are right. A
certain kind of face, the so-called
scientific face, is so often seen among
medical students as to prove that the
owner Of that cast Of countenance Is
likely to adopt medicine as career.
Conversely, whatever the original cast
OF features medical man may have
possessed, the anxious delicate and
absorbing work of medical practice
viii put a stamp upon them.

RECALL FATE OF FRANKLIN
Interesting Relics Recently Brought to
Vancouver From the Land
Where He Perished.

After being in the possession Of the
thrifty natives Of King Williams land
for three-quarters Of century, a
large number of interesting relics of
the Inflated Sir John Franklin polar
expedition have been brought from
the frozen north by Joe Bernard, who
Is here after four years stay along
the northernmost coast of the North
American continent, says Vancouver
(B- c. dispatch.
Though priceless from a collectors
point Of view, the utilitarian value of
the relics is negligible, and they were
obtained by Bernard for a piece of
lumber worth possibly 20 cents on the
coast.
s A few brass buttons among the
relics are believed to have belonged to
the distinguished leader, though there
is as yet no positive proof Of this.
Bernard also obtained number of
primitive scientific instruments used
by the northern tribes. These will be
sold to various museums and univer-
stiles for which the explorer has been
collecting chronological specimens and
data since 1910. He also brought a
collection Of furs worth approximate
ly $4,000.
Sir John Franklin, with 154 COM
panions, sailed into the Arctic in 1S45
to find the northwest passage, and
was never heard of again. After many
relief expeditions had failed, his fate
was ascertained in 1859, when bleached
skeletons were found on the trail to
Hudson bay.

WASHINGTON, Sept l0.-Labor as
well as the employer must uphold the
sanctity of cOntractural obligations.
Governmental stamp of authority was
placed upon this principle in a resolution
adopted by the United States Shipping
Board In disputes which have been in
progress with Longshoremen along the
gulf coast.

was seconded by I. V. O'Conner, the
labor member, after 1t had been intro
duced by Frederick /. Thompson

vessels OF the United States Shipping
Board, where and when members of
the L0ngshoremen's Union in violation
of their agreement now in effect refuse
TO load vessels of the United States Ship
ping Board"
The situation at New Orleans and Mo
bile arose after the board had insisted
that operators must live up to their wage
agreements made last October to run for
year. Longshoremen at New Orleans
refused to load cotton because Ii had
been handled by non union labor in the
warehouses and at Mobile the union men
refused to load lumber that had been
RATED from boOms by non-unfon labor.
