Clues to Character
BY ]. O. ABERNETHY.

II large.nosed woman values har.
mony in the married state she should
select a man with a small nose, be-
cause she will want to rule. A wife
with a large nose and thick upper
lip will have both the will and the
power to govern her husband.
Small, puny noses belong to insig-
nificant persons. Force of character
is lacking where there is a small, un-
developed nose. A we'll modelled nose
is the sign of virility, good digestion
and good breathing power. Without
a comparatively large nose there can
be little strength of character and de-
termination. Men with large and
arched noses are noted for courage
and power of endurance.
1t also is the domineering, acquisi-
tive and grasping type. 1t has the
faculty for striking a bargain as we'll
as a foe.
The noses of women are relatively
smaller than those of men. but they
correspond to their character and sex
and match the size Of their other fea-
lures. But If a woman has a large
nose, that is, compared with the rest
of her features, she evinces positive
ness of mind and will rule or ruin.

What Is a Standard Measure I

In the old city Sevres. rather than
in Paris, are kept the standard
weights and measures Of France.
Sevres has long been famous for its
perfect clocks, and Napoleon located

even temperatures are kept the vari-

Of steel and the bars of silver ana

presenting one centimeter is there.
A centimeter was originally defined
to mean just a certain fraction Of the

Miss Katharine R. Pike.

Most people meet the United States
Custom Service, or any other customs
for that matter, only at the ports of
entry and departure, and their i'm
pressions of it are those of mingled
evaporation and Illustration, as a
general rule. If they are clear as to
conscience about their declarations
exasperations is topmost, because of
lost time. II they are not. then their
feelings may be left to the imagina.
ton.
Once in very long while. it is pos.
sible to find some one who puts aside
the personal sense and considers the
customs service as the guardian of
the gates, the bringer.in of revenue to
the Government: group Of cynical
gentlemen who, from long and weary
experience with human nature, look
askance at every traveller, until he
shall have proven himself to be trust
worthy, but who in most instances,
are remarkably courteous and consid-
crate in spite of the abuse they re-
ceive.
There is another and more impor-
tant side to the service-an office here
in Washington, which regulates the
work of the men at the gates, in &C.
cordance with the laws established by
Congress. Disputed judgments are
brought here for settlement frequently
and the rates are determined here.
And in this Office the only woma n
who Is chief of section. one who is
reputed to know everything there is
to know about the service, Is Miss
Katharine r. Pike.
Miss Pike came to the customs Of
fee before any one else now on the

Windows deserve your serious con.

vide daylight and ventilation but they
also determine to a large degree the
selection and placement of furniture
and influence both interior and exte-
rior design. However. the chief func.
tions of windows are to provide US
with sunlight and fresh air, and we
can't emphasize their importance too
much.
Formerly, when you went out to
order window easements, you knew
that you were just goine TO order
plain wooden easements: now, how

of the tenderest leaves and sprinkle
them over vegetable salad as you
would parsley. Celery leaves can be
minced very fine and used not only
in salad but even over hot boiled po-
tatoes in place of parsley. The celery
leaves have a very delightful flavor.
Their vitamins are too precious to
deliberately throw away.
Families who balk at raw onions
may be made to take their share
"unbeknownst' by grating the onion
and mixing it with grated raw carrot,
or grated raw apple, or grated raw
beets, seasoning it with salt. or per-
haps little French dressing, and
serving it on lettuce. If they do not

The mineral salts and vitamins are
necessary to life. They are stored in
