Clues to Character
Eyes Submit to Affection.
BY J. o. ABERNETHY.

From the expression of the eye we
learn much of ones emotional nature
Persons possessing large, full eyes are
more emotional than the .small-eyed
Individual, more affectionate. and
more active; they receive sensations
more wildly and lose them as readily
as they receive them.
Lus.xers, full eyes In women, while
undoubtedly beautiful, winsome and ap-
parently affecticnate. are not deeply
soulful They submit to affection and
often court it, but give little in re.
turn.
If those who have large or bullying
eyes become criminals, it is because
Of their thoughtlesshess, recklessness
and lack OF appreciation of conse.
quences rather than the desire to be
, mean.
Large, bullying eyes and prominence
at the root of the nose, with large,
thin, projecting ears, indicate good
memory This type can glaAce cas-.
ually over literature and retain in
detail that which they have read.
Things heard they also remember, and,
therefore, in a short time they acquire
much knowledge.
Eyes that appear habitually wide
, slight appreciation Of consequences.
They act without celebrating and
often rue it, too. This type will not
attain great heights In any sphere OF

of thread of equal length coming
from each V-shaped notch. Gather
all the loose ends of thread together
and wind them firmly about the piece
of cardboard left by the, notches at
the opposite end of the cardboard.
Draw the, strands of thread tight, Sc
that there is no danger of them slip
ping from any notches. These are
the warp threads for the weaving.
Rules for Weaving.
String as many beads on length
of the linen thread as there are
spaces between the warp strands.
Run the needle under the warp and
fit beads into spaces. Bring the needle
UP over the last thread of the warp
and run it back through each bead
hole until it comes out at the side
where the weaving started. Draw the
knot end of the thread out far enough
for the knot to be broken off and the
end threaded. Run it back through
two or three of the beads and tie it
around warp strand. in hard knot
that will not slip. Cut off the end of
thread close to the knot, and the be-
ginning of the work is secure. Con-
unue to weave the beads as described.
Easy Patterns.
Designs for the weaving should be
very simple at first. For instance,
have each bead alternate with one of
a contrasting shade. Start each row
with a color different from that just
above 1t. Use two colors of beads and
you have tiny check design. BY
stringing two beads of color along
one row and two of the same color
along the next before alternating the
order of colors in the weaving, a
larger check pattern will result.
Designs for Weaving.
When the weaving method has been
acquired try more complicated designs.
Follow any bead work design that is
narrow enough for the chain. Or in
crease the number of notches in the
top of the frame" to suit the require
ments OF the design. Very attractive
chains that work up quickly are made
by alternating woven motifs with
plain bead strfnging: When q motif
has been finished in the weaving, un-
wind the threads at the other end of
frame, and string each with any pre-
ferred color of beads already used.
Have all chains alike. The same num-
Der of beads must be strung on each
thread to insure evenness. Wind the
strands again about the end notches
and make another woven motif. The
length of strung chain may be what
ever you like. The woven motifs must
come at regular intervals.
Methods of Work.
AS the chain grows in length It
will be necessary to take 1t from the
frame occasionally. Wind the COM
Mo fod inf a nd q
1t close to the under part of the frame.
Slip the strands of the warp back
into notches and continue as at first.
A motif may start chain or length
of strung beads. Finish off the ends
of the chain with clasps or make one
long endless chain by joining warp
threads neatly,

occasion for travel or for doing any

are liable to feel grouchy and dissatis
fed, not alone with others, but with
yourself. The influences are liable to
engender spirit of captiousness and
criticism quite foreign to your nature.
Do or say nothing impulsively. In the
evening the atmosphere will have
cleared and this will be a good time
for family or social gatherings.
Children born tomorrow are destined,
according to the signs, to enjoy excel

but always" Tho one danger against
which to guard will be overconfidence
In their own strength, and discretion
must be inculcated in their minds, so
that in a physical sense they do not
bite Off more than they can chew"
In disposition they will be boisterous,
but never unkind; always up to
pranks, but never vicious. They will
possess not only physical but mental
courage and will fear nothing They
will have strong minds and a justaa
probation of proportions; not much
addicted to study, but fond of every

difficult one and you are emotional to
the nth degree and at times tempeS-

In your presence, as no one knows
which way the cat will jump. You
can, II you only so desire, make your.
self very charming. On the other
hand. you do, without the slightest
provocation. make yourself very OBJ

human volcano, not always in a state
of eruption, but liable to become so
without warning or advice.
You are ambitious for social and
intellectual betterment. read with
avidity, converse f1uently and evince
great interest in club and social life.
You like to lead, but as consistency is
essential to good leadership. you never
succeed in gaining many followers.

help you to control your impulsive
vagaries.

Fuchsias.
BY ID. c. PEATTIE.

Fuchsias.
I find that most peoples taste in
flowers begins with a love for the
gay garden flowers and gradually
broadens to include the less combed
and orderly beauty of the wildlings.
I began with the wild flowers and it
took while to work around to
gaudier blossoms. Fuchsias especially
proved an acquired taste, but 1 GER
tainly have acquired it now. OF all
the wonder flowers of this old earth,
fuchsias are certainly the most like
birds Of paradise, so daring in their
blending of shades that nearly clash,
rose purple and cherry, madden and
crimson. Any one could tell that
they come from the tropics, by OBJ
serving their splendid colors and their
shrinking 'sensitiveness to frost. Here,
as in California, one never sees
fuchsias outside Of pots and window
boxes, set out for brief season. But
even the famous fuchsia gardens of
San Francisco, where the plants
reached almost tree size, We're merely
being spared for a term by the frost
gods. A few years ago they were
smitten by a great cold wave and
have never quite recovered their old
time Splendor.

LONELINESS
BY FLORENCE DAVIES.

This is the vacation season.
Most Of us take trips. But how
stupid 1t would be to spend all our
time coming and going. and none OF
1t arriving, staying, resting or seeing
Yet that is just the way a good many
people live. They spend all their
time on the journey and forget what
they went for.
They are like woman who trav.
eled from coast to coast on her vaca.
ton and didn't take the time to go
down the Grand Canyon.
Stupid" YOU say. You may not
pass that way again, why come all
this way and miss the prize?"
But good many Of us live like that
all of the time; we let life slip by and
miss it's rewards.
1t Is as if we deliberately planted
SO many trees that we might not see
the woods. A stupid thing to do.
What can one do about it? Has
life no loneliness, that we have no de-
sire to set apart time for its contem-
plation and enjoyment? Surely 1t
has. 1t must have rhyme, variety,
stress, storm, peace.
We know it has the loneliness of
| moments, persons, pursuits, because
sometimes, rarely, we experience
them. But how shall we capture this
loneliness more often? How shall we
keep the trees from shutting out the
sight of the woods. from being so
dense that we cannot walk in the cool
shadows of the leafy branches. the
business of daily living from crowding
out the enjoyment of life itself?
That is too much for one person to
answer. But there is no harm in
throwing out the thought for you to
ponder.
The answer cannot be wholly in
terms of wealth enough to insure
leisure. For some very wealthy, idle
people miss all the loneliness. and
some very poor busy people catch
many fieetfng moments of true hap
piness and beauty, and have many
satisfying rewards.
Perhaps it is a matter of finding out
that loneliness is important

Seal and he was eager to learn more,
and everything he learned seemed
strange. That was just because he
never had seen a lobster before he
couldn't possibly know what it was
like down on the bottom of the ocean.
He had found out that Big Claw used
those legs of his for crawling about
on the bottom. 1t occurred to him
now that all the crabs he had seen
and they seemed to him as If they
must be sort of second cousins to a

Can he swim at all?" Reddy was
bound to learn all he could about
Big Claw.
Certainly he can SWIM" replied
Barker. He swims backward. What
are you laughing att"
II was just wondering" replied
Reddy, IF he was to be in a race
which was to be walked for half the
distance and the remaining distance
to be finished by swimming. where he
would be when he finished. Can he
do anything else besides walk and

"He can dig" replied Barker.

Mona jerked away from Marie. who

about on them. The exquisite placid

was gone; her blue eyes were almost
malevolent.
why all this fuss about the girl,
anyway? 1 engaged her as a servant
and apparently she turned the heads
of both of you. Why are you defend

| back / can see that you've champion
ed her from the first. Perhaps, after
all, was wrong in thinking that she
| was scheming to get Barry. Perhaps
| the master OF the house appealed to
her as a better CATCH"
A wave Of cold disgust swept over
| Richard. his blue eyes narrowed to
| pin points.
Control yourself. Mona" he said
| harshly.
But Mona ignored him, her voice
had grown suddenly shrill.
Its bad enough to think that Barry
could make such a fool of himself
| over a pretty mental. but you who
| have always been so punctilious where
women are concerned
Barry interrupted, roughly. "Stop
| it, Mona, you're making q fool of
yourself by talking that way" His
blue eyes, so like his mothers save for
the marks. of dissipation around them,
met Mona's full, and even in that mo-
ment Of undisciplined rage where she
had allowed herself to say whatever
popped into her mind, Mona felt a
sudden stab Of regret. That look in
Barry's eyes, together with the words
he had spoken, was like a warning.
She felt as IL she had lost him for
ever, that from now on she would
forfeit his respect and he would side
with his father against her.
Richard interposed here.
Enough OF all this. Marie, IL you
have finished with Mrs. Kingsley, you
may CO."
AS the girl left the room, he turned
back to Mona. You've discharged
Leila?"

gagged her. 1t was my privilege to dis
charge her"
Richard shrugged his shoulders and
left the room. and a moment later,

but strangely enough for once her
self-possession had deserted her. She
felt lonely, and as she turned to tho
glass to scrutinize herself, IL struck
her like the lash Of whip that she
was not so fiawlessly beautiful as
usual. Was her beauty waning. the
thing that meant more to her than
anything else in life?
Mirror. mirror in my hand.
Am l the fairest in the land?
The old lines Of the famous fairy
tale struck across her memory, the
old story of Snow-white and the jeal-
Gus queen. She laughed bitterly.
How utterly absurd to think Of such
q thing at this time! Just as IL she
could possibly be jealous Of a girl
who had been her servant!

Bodied Hair.

History repeats itself. but not more
than fashion. For the style of Golf
fure that we call "bobbed" that is now
so popular with women is said to have
made its first appearance as a fashion
sequel of the French revolution, when
1t was initiated. not by women, but by
men.
After the terrors of the bloody cpl.
sode had subsidized it became fad with
young aristocrats to discard the elab.
crate coiffures and wigs of that long
haired day, and have their hair cut
short--to where the chicken got the
axe, and their friends had recently
felt the guillotine! The effect was the
modern bob The term by which it
was popularity described in those days,
however. was not "bobbed," but "a la
guillotine!'

1t is told of the fuchsias. how.
rightly I know not, that in 1893 an
English sailor found fuchsias in Peru
and brought some home for his
mothers bay window. There, in the
pale English sunlight, in full view of
passers-by, they attracted the attention
of James Lee, a nurseryman. He
bought them on the spot, struck all
the cuttings he could, and immediate
ly took London by storm with the
gay novelty, realizing $1,000 profit.

Making the Frames.
Heavy cardboard is needed for the
frames. Thick cardboard boxes can
be cut down and used. The card
board must be so heavy that it will
not bend easily. Cut as many notches
in one end of long, narrow strip of
cardboard as there are to be strands
in the bead chain. Make the notches
V shaped. Cut two deep and rather
large V-shaped notches from the op-
posite end of the strip of cardboard.
The frame is now complete.
