Clues to Character
They Shy at Praise.
BY J. o. ABERNETHY.

Personal cleanliness, both Of body
and mind, are among the character
istics Of modest person. They are
careful of dress, sensitive, and avoid
attention of the opposite sex. Modesty
is that inclination to assume less than
ones due and to concede more than
is the due of others. An excess OF
Alodesty is evidenced by extreme
bashfulness and often abject humility.
Lack of this trait is manifest by bold
ness, arrogance, overconfidence and
vulgarity.
Predominance of the brain and nerv-
our system give high cast of thought.
Fine, clear skin, thin glossy hair be-
long to highly sensitive nervous
system. These people are high
strung" they have high ideals, and
abhor coarseness in human beings as
well as in everything else.
In addition to these manifestations
of modesty in the hair and skin, you
will find that the upper lip furnishes
an excellent clue to this trait of char
acter. If there be a well defined groove
in the middle of the upper lip from
the nose to the red membrane region,
you will know that here modesty is
one of the outstanding characteristics
of the person who wears it. You will
embarrass this type if you praise him.

THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Sunday, May Is.

Astrologers read tomorrow as an
unimportant day in planetary direc-
ton, when it is wise to rest and to
make the most of opportunity for
reflection.
Churches should benefit under this
sway, which encourages meditation
and serious planning for the future.
This is an auspicious sway for out
door recreations and should be bene-
fetal to aged persons.
Under this rule of the stars there
should be a disposition to be kindly
and tolerant. 1t is promising for do
mestic harmony.
Farmers and gardeners should bene-
fit. Both flowers and fruit should be
abundant this year, in which there
will be unusual rainfall.
Educators should benefit. for there
is to be a great demand for all who
have trained minds and are able to
impart knowledge.
Astrologers prophesy that a new
problem involving phase of Asiatic
immigration is to be presented to
the United States
New York and Washington are to
receive many foreign visitors in the
next few weeks.
Persons whose birth date it is have
the augury of a year in which they
perform all duties with special care
and win, as a reward, many pieces
of good fortune.
Children born on that day prob
ably will be extremely industrious and
able to succeed by means of hard
work.

SPRINCTIME
BY ID. G. PEATTIE,
Frostweed.

This month and this alone the
frostweed blooms, big golden blooms
at first. followed later by curious little
clustered flowers. 1t is nearly
unique in this region, as our represent
ative of the glorious rock-rose family
that runs such a riot over the dry
fields of Spain and North Africa
The flowers are ephemeral, alas, open
but once on some bright day, then
casting their petals forever. Strange
is the whole plant, so hoary in all
its vegetative parts.
But it is not now alone that the
frostweed takes the eye, When nights
are clear and a snap is in the air.
next November, the frostweed, it's
seedpods empty then, will come once
more into its own, in a strange,
deathly beauty. Then from its stems,
through the cracks in the thin bark,
will shoot forth long crystals of ice
that curl and furl and take on fan
tastic forms. like the pulled candy
effects of the confectioners. The
little mint plant, called dittany. so
common on our hills, does the same
thing, and even one of the garden
salvias is known to make frost.curls.
but none more remarkably than our
lovely frostweed.

HOW 1T STARTED
BY JEAN NEWTON.
Round Peg in Square Hole.

This expression, so commonly used
to describe ''misfit,' whether with
reference to a person whose efforts
are wasted in the wrong direction, or
one who Is in an unsuitable environ
ment, had it's origin in the imagina-
ton of Sydney Smith, the famous
English preacher and humorist of
early nineteenth century days.
1t was in a lecture which he de-
livered at the Royal Institution at the
height of his career that he is quoted
as saying:
IF you choose to present the vari.
Gus parts of life by holes upon
table of different shapes, some circu-
lar, some square and some oblong,
and the persons acting these parts by
bits of wood of similar shape, we shall
generally find that the triangular per-
son has the square hole, the oblong
is used as misfit for the triangular
and the square person has squeezed
himself into the round hole
The idea struck a popular note and
the expression. "a round peg in a
square hole used wherever English
is spoken, has long outlived it's author.

Mecca, the holy city of the Moham-
medans, is chiefly noted for it's con-
nection with the Arabian prophet.
Mohammed was born within the city's
gates. In itself the city is uninter-
esting. but is important because of
the pilgrimages made every year by
followers of the Faithful" The
great mosque contains the Kaaba, and
it is the object of the pilgrim journey
to the city. Between 900 and
10000 persons take part in the an
