Ah! yes, that In are one of the few women haya posed whs know® how to *ae the eyes." < The speaker iru » well-known Chi- Wp&rtograpfcer.aiid lbs person ad- areeeed was a charming ycrang woman *i*h marvelous black eyes an 1 a wealth "It will be a perfect picture, miss, fee said; "yot wiU like tt. Yon may fee aproof to-morrow." . • Then, as the young lady left the •tadio, the little artirt fell to thinking about eyee. It was an interesting and chat. It was learned that eyelashes soften the expression, ly in women. A marked ex- apl« of this was Adelaide Neilson. She seemed to have a double set of eye­ lashes, so heavy were they. Her great charm was the expression of her evvg. They were large and beaming. They had a soul in them, and -the heavy fashes poetized them. It was learned, *>0) that a full eyelid gives a softening expression, and that the surrounding muscles have a great deal to do with f ine expression of the eyes. But the Whole soul is expressed in the eye when • person is earnestly pleading. In %oman the eye is more delicately Shaped than in man; the eyelashes are longer and the eyebrows more delicately arched. A perfect eye in a woman should be full, almond-shaped, with long lashes, upper and lower, with a delicate eyebrow to suit the shape of the eye. In color blue is the more sen­ timental, but a small gray eye in a wo­ man will vary more in expression. Some men have women's eyes. The great Napoleon was one of them. He Sad the clear, cold, steel-gray eve that , showed the lightest and the darkest •hades of character. It is the flash of expression that makes the woman's eye lovable, the coquettish part of her na­ ture expressing itself in the eye. ^ There are eyes, also, which resemble those of animals--the lion, the eagle, the ferret. Gen. Logan's eye could be truthfully called a hawk's eye, it was so black and piercing, yet, withal, ft was a full, honest eye and one of deep feeUrg. The actor Montague's eye was Often compared to that of a gazelle. It lias soft and beautiful and full of soul. It is said that there are thirteen rules by which the character may be judged by the eyes. Those that are very large and are also of an extremely clear blue, almost transparent when seen in profile, indicate a ready and great capacity, ex­ treme sensibility, suspiciousness, an in­ clination to enjoyment and curious in­ quiry. Black, sparkling eyes, that are amall and under strong, black eye­ brows, denote penetration and often ctxncinp and artful simulation. A weak nature is denoted by eyes which, seen is profile, run almost parellel with the profile of the nose, and a small, pusillan­ imous character by eyes about which there are many very small long •Wrinkles. Eyes with long, sharp, hori­ zontal corners and thick-skinned lids covering half the pupil indicates a san­ guine nature and genius. Quick dis­ cernment, elegance and taste, instabil­ ity, pride, and a strong love for women are denoted by eyes which are large, open, clearly transparent and which sparkle with rapid motion under shapely delineated lids. A feeble constitution and a phlegmatic weakness of mind are 4onated by eyes with light, small eye­ brows and very long, concave lashes. Eyes that are never very round nor en­ tirely-open are those which hear while they see, enjoy and color their object like themselves, and are a medium of voluptuous and spiritual enjoyment. Proud, suspicious, harsh, and cold- hearted persons have deep-sunken, amall, sharply delineated, dull blue eyes, under a bony, perpendicular fore­ head. ^ Curious facts have been observed re­ garding the eyes as a feature in national physiognomy. The Italian's, eyes are small, the German's light-oblored and surrounded by many wrinkles, and the Englishmen's are strong, open, and steadfast. The Swiss have dull eyes; the Laplanders narrow eyes with the pupils of a yellow brown; the Tartars amall and sunken eyes; the Spaniards' are clear and well formed, and the Fin- landers have heavy lids and the iris of a deep yellow. The little photographer fished from an inner pockfct a diary which contained his judgment concerning the eyes of distinguished people who have faced his camera here and in New York. Fol­ lowing are some extracts: The eye of passion is the grand eye, and it is in delineation of passion that the actor possesses power. In this Booth is unexcelled. His great power is in his eyes and in their great inten­ sity. They are large, rigorous, nervous, subdued, yet full of power, flashing • . ..

"Beautiful! fits like a glov. Have you changed your dressmaker?'* "No. I bought this dress ready-made at a bargain." "Impossible! Why, then is posi­ tively iiot a wrinkle in it." "Yet it was mad. for a woman I have never seen. The moment I saw the dress on the form in the store, I said, 'that is my fit.' The measures were ex­ actly mine." / "But if it was made for some one else how did vou get it ?" " Bought it at a bargain, as I said be­ fore. You see it was this way. Mrs. had the dress made to order. She is just my size, you know. She paid $10 dawn for it, and before she took it her sister died and she put on black. So in order to sell the dress the pro­ prietors of the establishment gave me the goods at cost and made no charge for the making. Wasn't that a bar­ gain ?" "Yes, if you are pot superstitious about wearing a dress made for another woman." "Why should I be? It was her mis­ fortune, not mine, that prevented her from wearing it. I consider myself lucky to get it." The two ladies walked away.

The jxt is as follows; Editor, manager, and printer dial! State their full names and ages on mak­ ing. ̂ written application for authority to publish a journal. Applicants must not be less than 20 years of age, Japan­ ese subjects, and persons who have never been deprived of their civil rights. The editor cannot also be the manager of ti»e same newspaper, and each of them has to deposit as caution-money a sum . of between $350 and $1,000, unless the paper be exclusively devoted to science, art, or commerce. Every reply to an article in the paper must be inserted in extenso in the same type as the article which called it forth and at the head of the same column--always provided that, if the reply occupies twice as much space as the article, the manager is en­ titled to charge fear the excessive matter as an advertisement. There is to be no exception to this rule, except when the reply is of the character of an attack or if it is annonymous. No newspaper is to argue in support of a breach of law, even if the law is considered a bad one. No official document can be published, nor any allusion to it permitted, with­ out the authority of the department which it concerns. The Minister is to have the right to suspend, prohibit, or confiscate every newspaper the tone of which seems to be injurious to the pub­ lic peace or to the customs, however open those customs in them­ selves may be to criticism.

Itiis astonishing what a lot of chest­ nuts are knocked off the trees (after great men die) and labeled Beecher, Greeley, Lincoln, Josh Billings, etc. Beecher anecdotes are flying in all di­ rections. A Wall street man, who claims to have heard everything that Beecher said in public, relates the fol­ lowing story he heard Beecher tell about a New York drummer. The said drummer was detained in a small town in Western New York, and not being able to get out of the place until Monday thought he would attend a revival meet­ ing and see if he couldn't unload a few dollars' worth of goods on the deacons early Monday morning before the train pulled out. But the drummer was so well loaded up with rock and rye that when he reached.the church he could not tell for the life of him how many years it took to build the Pyramids of Egypt. He got into the revival meeting with his boots on, however, and took a seat in front of the altar/ It was a close, warm day. The rock and rye got in its fine work, and before the congregation had finished singing "On Jordan's Stormy Banks I Stand" the drummer was sound asleep and dreaming that he was Barnum's calliope engaged to make noise for the season. After the first sermon had been concluded the choir sang a hymn and the evangelist of the occasion followed the sermon with a a rousing exhortation, and then asked, "Will all of you who want to go to Heaven please rise?" - Every man, woman, and child in the congregation arose except the sleeping drummer. As the people sat down again the drummer awoke with a start, and before he had time to convince himself that he was not a calliope engaged to Barnum for the season the preacher shouted: "All of you who want to go to hell stand upl" Catching only the last two words "stand up" the drummer leaped to his feet and stood alone to the amazement of the people. Steadying himself against a high-backed pew he looked at the evangelist a moment and said: "Mr. Parson, I don't jist catch on ter what you're drivin' at, but you and I seem to be' in the minority on tliis vote. Guess we are beaten. "Come outside and I'll treat."--New York Telegram,. Two Sparrows for a Farthing1. "Young Freethinker" writes to say that "in many instances the words of the Bible are untrue as applied to our own times," and he says: "Take the passage, 'Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing?' I say they are not?" Oh, well, I agree with Young Freethinker that the passage quoted may not apply to this day and generation. But that is the fault of this generation; the Bible is alll right. It is only we who are all wrong. Two sparrows were sold for a farthing then, and I don't suppose, in­ spiration itself could foresee that, in the year 1884, in the United States of America, a race of would wring from a starving neighbor, $1.85 for _a spring chicken no bigger than a robin, or $2 for a squab three days out of the shell, and would make hutter out of dead cattle, and when their children asked for bread would give them a preparation of alum, and would eatch imported sardines off the coast of Maine, and would sell "bob veal" in the public markets, and would tnix split peas in the coffee and sand in the sugar. I suppose it was the intention to burn the old globe up before a gen­ eration arose that was capable of doing such things. Of course you can't make the Bible fit our day, my son. Omnip­ otence couldn't do that without mating a hopeless wreck of the Bible. Suppose you try that. Commence at the other end of the bridge, and by the time you get Wall street fitted to the Sermon on the Mount you will be gratified to see that you have landed the country safely on the old "two sparrows for a farth­ ing" basis.--Bob Burdette. Views m Hie 8at4eet1fc»tJta»rtljrlajto' oom witn riMM «r (Chicago Mews.) The decollete styles ft dress in vogte among Aaaerican women who possess evening tofletes and opportunity to dis­ play them, has been repeatedly cen­ sured as immodest. There's not the slightest question to be raised upon this point. No one gainsays the fact that the low-necked and no-sleeved bodice, as known to deniaens cf the United States, more frequently traverses the line of modesty than otherwise. But beyond this justifiable change, there's another that cannot but be ap­ parent to any woman of good taste,.who puts her faculties of observation ana re­ flection to work. The evening dress that consists mostly of an extended skirt and a broad expanse of unoovered neck and arms is not a pleasing specta­ cle. It is a deliberate manifestation of crude ideas. It tells conclusively the story that the woman who wears it comes of a race new to full-dvess re­ gime, It lets out to all the world that the wearer's mother didn't go to parties in low-necked gownB. The woman who remembers how mamma came to the nursery to kiss the children good-night .in a pretty toilet that half disclosed her neck and the glitter of the necklace upon her white throat, doesn't make the mistake of a too expansive uncovering of her bust. To do so unmistakably bespeaks the parvenu. No matter how beautiful the woman nor how lovely her neck and arms, their complete revelation is not effective. A lavish display of charms is more apt to be too fulsome for attraction. A glimpse of a snowy neck through a Y front, round arms, with a fall of lace or long gloves stretching far beyond the elbows to cover their nakedness, leaves a haunting suggestion of beauty in the mind of the beholder quite untinged by any notion of immodest exhibition. A sweet young creature with dimpled shoulders and wrists never looks more infahtile or lovable than in some filmy creation with some round baby waist, cut just as low as it ought to be and not a hair's breadth lower. A pompadour bodice for a mature woman of fine proportions may give her an air of having been used "to purple and'fine linen habiliments all her days. But in a gown, the bodice of which slips from narrow shoulder-straps deep down in front and behipd, she becomes gross and takes on a look significant of a tob-sudden release from the washtub. The perfect evening toilet could not be one with high, stuffy neck and close sleeves. But the most imperfect even­ ing gown is the one with the faint apol­ ogy for sleeves in the shape of nairow strapsand where the bodice stops in the middle of the bust line. The decollete waist, where even shoulder-straps are ignored, is unworthy of consideration as attire. It is not attire and it is absolutely inex­ cusable for any woman to assume that it is. Medicinal Value of Water. Dr. Titus Munson Coan makes the following remarks on the use of water Ordinary drinking water, if taken in large quantities, acts as a solvent and a diuretic, and also increases the perspira­ tion if the temperature of the air be high. Taken in the quantity of one or two quarts at a time, the diluent effect of water is often sufficient to eliminate an excess of alcohol from the blood, as after taking too much wine. Another effect of large draughts of water is to make the pulse slower, and to diminish slightly the stomal temperature of the bedy. Increase of weight has been claimed as a result of systematic water-drinking on retiring for the night. The latest researches do not bear out this con­ clusion. Water thus taken will prevent any actual loss of weight, but it is not shown that it will do anything more. With the addition of a moderate stimu lant, however, it has often a decidedly fattening effect. Swallowed as hot as it can be borne, pure water has lately come into vogue as an efficient remedy for dyspeptic and rheumatic ailments, and for reducing the obesity consequent upon idle habits and overeating. It is not yet shown that these facts are caused by the hot water. I have seen cases in which this treatment, conjoined with a diet almost exclusively composed of lean meat and stale bread, has been followed by great reduction of the invalid's weight, but the result seemed to me due to the withholding of superabundant food from the patient and not to any posi­ tive virtue in the hot water itseif. In dyspepsia the hot water treatment some­ times succeeds for the same reason. Nature, if given a chance, has a good deal to say in the cure of the ailments that result from misuse of the digestive organs. But this treatment has the double advantage of giving the dis­ turbed stomach comparative rest and of gently stimulating it to the digestive duties that it cannot wholly forego, un­ less the patient is to be sustained by faith alone.

Table linen does not need to be boiled every time it is washed, but it should be scalded, Ruffles and tucks require only half as much time to iron as puffings and del­ icate laces.

Table linen should be ironed single until quite dry, tlfen folded hy the thread or rolled upon a round stick as long as the cloth is wide. Re­ cent fruit stains are easily removed from linen. The Journal of Commerce says: "It is seldom necessary to do more than to hold the linen tightly stretched over the tub and pour boiling water through it. No soap should be used until the stain disappears. When linen is thus stained a very wise plan is to rub the stained spot as full as possi­ ble with common table salt. This will prevent its drying until it is washed. When hot water is poured through it will easily remove all vestige of the stains. If the linen has been long stained, and washing has not removed it, sprinkle it with water just to dampen it, and rub into the ptain on both sides, common yellow soap until it is thor­ oughly saturated, then lay on mixture of cold starch, very thick, and rub that well in, and expose to the sun and air. If a day or two of this exposure does not wholly remove the stain, repeat the process. "We have never known it to fafl."--Baltimore American.
