The living face in its relation to the real character might be likened to an expert juggler manipulating the vari- ous articles of his mystic trade. Ex- cept in moments of revery or abstrac- tion the expression is constantly chan- glng; It scarcely remains the same for five consecutive seconds. It isa case of “Now you see me, and now you dont’t,” and it {s extremely difficult to deter- mine when you may be catching ‘a glimpse of the real character, and when the fleeting expression may be a misleading token, involuntary, per: haps, on the part of the individual, but cunningly calculated by nature to de celve the eye of the spectator. Hence the genuine ability to “read character” in facial expression is much rarer than is commonly supposed. It is not only a fine art but an intricate one. Most persons who fancy that they possess it in some degree are really proceeding upon a sort of blind instinct, which is likely to be deceived entirely by superficial indications. The accurate judges of men are ex- tremely scarce; their gift is one which should invariably lead them to suc- cess it they are blessed with half an opportunity. The appraisal of character by pho- tographic evidence may be as er- roneous as that which is based on the lving face, but at least the photo- graph gives opportunity for continu- ous study and shows none of those shifting moods which are sure to con- fuse the judgment. The camera catches its subject as he or she may appear at the given moment. It may be an inopportune moment, the camera may be a poor one, there may be a fault in the plate, or the photégrapher may lack skill, but something of the true soul and character of the subject is bound to appear on the surface and to stand revealed to all who see it. The truth may be somewhat quali- fied by the fact that the average per- son in front of the camera is invari- ably more or less self-consclous, but In general effect the dominant quali- ties are at least partially revealed, 80 that in almost any photographic por- trait one may see strength of char- acter, vanity, self-esteem, nobility, meanness, fussiness, unscrupulousness or what not, as the case may be. ‘When photographs are “reproduced” by half-tone process the essential facts of the physiognomy are sometimes ob- scured, especially in the hurried proc- esses of newspaper portraiture. Still, In all but the most atroclous examples of such art, these essential facts show through, even if it be with but a dim glow.—Providence Journal. Overstralning.

GRANDMOTHERS USED SAGE TEA To Darken the Hair and Restore Gray and Faded Hair to Its Natural Color It is easier to preserve the color of the hair than to restore it, al- though it is possible to do both. Our grandmothers understood the secret They made a “sage tea,” and their dark, glossy hair long after middls life was due to this fact. Our moth- ers have gray hairs before they are fifty, but they are beginning to ap- preciate the wisdom of our grand- mothers in using “sage tea” for.their hair and are fast following suit.

Referring ‘to his diary of June 23, 1908, Mr. Studley maid it was untrue| that, coming’ ‘home from Lady Glen-| ‘Coats’ ball, he violently - pulled his wite out of a cab and forced her onto her knees, so that she fell on the pavement. i What occurred was this: “Abouti ten minutes to 2, gt the ball, I wentj to my wife and said, ‘Cherub, are. you ready to go home?’ She said, ‘Oh, | let me stay a little’ ‘I said, ‘Very: well; I'll come back shortly’ About Ave minutes past 2 I asked her if she were ready, and she, with very bad grace, sald, ‘Yes” 1 sald, ‘I can't get up in the morning it I don’t go to bed.’ We got into & hansom, and du: ing the short distance to Sloan street she turned on me'in a temper and said, ‘You spoil all my fun, you brute,” and she let out at ‘me and smashed my hat down over’my face—all for nothing.”—London Dally News, Force of Habit Strong. At the informal gambol which was given by the Chicago members of the Lambs’ club recently, john Drew told of an actor who had the misfortune to fall oft a ferry boat at night. Of course there was great confusion on board. The searchlight was turned round and round in an effort to find the man. He came up for the third time just as the light struck him, and from force of -habit the actar raised himsel? and delivered a most eeremonious bow. Then the rescuers grabbed him.

What kind of a guarantee is on it? Does the manufacturer respect his own product with a real guarantee, or does he want you to:take the chance? What do parts cost you and how conveniently can you get them? How many cars of this make are in service and how many are giving satisfaction? Questions like these go deep into the heart of -the case, and if you put them rigorously upon any car you will find out with a certainty whether or not that car is worth its price.
