A continually wandering eye gives the impression of uncertainty If not absolute mental instability
 Teach children to focus atten- tIon and turn their eyes levetiy without the darting jump that pre- judices others.
 As rule children use their eyes very we'll hold them we'll, and have their clear direct expres.lon that gains confidence. It Is when they are older that the cye-expres- sion usually changes. It may come from nervousness, seif-corsciou- nesy. or worry.
 Ne one SO intrigues me as the youth--or the glrl--who seems 70 he master of his eyes. And noth- ing upsets me 50 much as to talk to an adult, or listen to him, rath- CT. while his eyes keep hopping about, unseeing at that, like q compass in storm.
 Staring Eyes
 Certainly n stare Is quits as dis- concerting A stare is the one thing that ruins good looks with out fall. A certain movie actrees, pick her out--would be the most beautiful girl on the screen except for n too-wide open stare. Yop have probably guessed the wscns one, I do not mean Dig eyes or quiet eyes.-1 mean fixed star Ing eycs--just what Is says.
 That for eyes. Now for hands. Many do not realize that there are people who disregard faces ai, together. They look at hands. | hnve several friends who do so. They could not tell you how man or woman was dressed. or the coi- or of their eyes or hair, but they | could draw n picture of the hands, , once seen. and tell you precisey how they were held ana uscu' " short, they read character instant ly by the kind of wrists and hanos people have.
 Restless Hands
 The restless hands, is an inu'cu- five of thought, attitude, or nerve disorder us the eye. ~ ,.,,
 Tho "poised" hand, and the lazy hand are both quiet, you say. now then can any ono tell the ditiss' | oncep IH tho owner n calm' seu- nosscscsed, purposcful person. or 's he Cor she) merely lazy?
 | These hand observers (and re' member they are mot clairvoyant hu, oven as you and l, and many in nulnber) can tell the difter- cnce. The indolent person lets his arms hang" from the shoui- dor. and his hands "drop" rom the wrists. The one with n hun- dred irons In the fire holds his arms as If in readiness. The hands bnve mn alert, though controlled look, as if merely biding their time.
 Effect on Behavior
 And so, young people. having their attention called to such facts may be able to cultivate n cont. | hence of eye and hand that VIII have neither m appearance or stu' pldity, lnxiness, nor instability.
 Strangely enough this con,rol will react favorably on behavior and manner, Just as pleasant IDS and a smile react on disposition. Physical gestures can make or break us, 1 believe that too many adolescents and children, too' never have this brought to their | attention at all. Wo shouldl be kind and te, them
 l fitting and made of peau do poo do.
