The favorite “beat” of the ghost ts usually the spot where he died. Hence, in order to keep him at least from the house, the Kaffirs carry a sick man out into the open air to die and the Maoris used to, remove the sick intosheds. If a Kaflir or a Maori died before he could be car- ried out the house was tabooed and deserted. There are traces in Greece, Rome and China of this custom of carrying d¥lug persons into the ‘open air. But in case the ghost should, despite of all precautions, make his way back from the grave, steps were taken to barricade the house agains' him. Thus, in some parts of Russia and East Prussia, an ‘axe or a lock is laldon thethreshold or a knife is hung over the door, and in Ger- many as soon as the coffin is carried out of the house all the doors and windows are shut, whereas, so long as the body is still in the house, the windows (and sometimes the doors) are leit coustantly open to allow the soul to escape. In some parts of England every bolt and lock In the house Is unfastened so that the Shost of the dying man may fly freely away. But if primitive man knew how to bully, be also knew how to outwit the ghost, Fi ample, a ghost can only find his way back to the house by the way by which he left it. This little weakness did not eseape the vigilance of our ancestors and they took thelr ‘meusurea accordingly. The coffin was carried out of the house, not by the door, but by a hole made in the wall, and this hole was carefully stopped up as Soon as the body had been -pamed through it. so that when the ghost strolied quietly back from the grave, he found to his surprise that there was no thoroughfare. The credit of this ingenious device is shared equally by Greenlanders, Hottentots, Bechuanas, Sam- oieds, Ojibways, Algonkins, ians, Hindoos, Tibetans, Siamese, Chinese and Fijians. These special Openings,’ or “doors ot the dead,” are still to be seen in a village near Amsterdam, and they were common in some towns of cen: tral Italy, as Perugia and Assisi. A trace of the same Custom survives in Thuringen, where it is thought that the ghost ofa man who has been hanged will return to a house f the body be ‘not taken out by the window Instead of the Joor. ‘The Siamese, not content with carrying the dead man out by a special opening, endeavor to make assurance doubly sure by hu him three times round the house at full s; & proceeding well calculated to bewilder thé izabet Ni What It Is Not, turns tw fletion. ™m, ‘Their Color, Signification of Character, Disposition, and Temperament. ‘From the San Francisco Argonant. The colors most common to the eyes are brown, gray, blue, hasel and black, or what we call black, for those eyes which appear to be black will generally be found to be of s deep’ yellowish brown when looked at very marrow- ly; 14m the distange only which makes them Spear biagk, because the deep yellow brown olor is in sueh strong contrast to of She eye that it appears black. eyes of hes lh Seer atipaby sacar yellow; lastly, there are eyes that are green.’ Very beaut some of the eyes Sf this color when they ‘st ayaded-—as is very often, sho case “with long ais ans es though beau ‘are ae oe Clear light bine eyes, with calm steadfast- ness in their glance, are’ Indicative of cheerful- ness of disposition, of a serene temper, and constant nature. These eyes are peculiar to the northern nations; one meets them among the Bwedes, and also sometimes among the Scotch. blue eyes we see among the rare blondes of the south—that is, in Italy and Spain—have among them eyes in which are some greenish tints; and such eyes, ti hb often called light blue, have none of the qualities of serexsty and constancy which belong tothe light blue eyes pf thenorth. Neither mnst the pleasant light blue eye with the honest glance be confounded with anothér sort of e: eof ‘@ pale blue, almost steel-colored hue, which -has a continually shifting sort of motion both of the eyelids an the fageted the eyes. People with such eyes ‘as these are to be avoided, as they are indicative ofa deceitful and selfish nature. Very dark blue exes, with something of the tint of the violet, show ower of affection and purity of mind, but not much inteliectuality. Blue eyes are more significant of tenderness and of a cer- fain yieldingness of pur than either brown, lack or eyes. Blue-eyed people are inconstant, t ike those of the hazel and yellow eyes, but they yield from affection. Gray eyes ofa somewhat greenish gray, with 48 Well as blue in them, and which are of ever-varying tints, like the sea,are those which denole most intellectuality, They are especially indicative of the impulsive, impres- sionable temperament—a mixture of the san- guine and the billous—which produces the po- etic and artistic natures. In England—where there are more varieties of tints in eyes thau in any otber country—the poets have almost al- Nays gray eyes. | A. blographer of Byron speaks of "his" “beautiful angeful y eyes.’ Shakespeare also had, we are tok G ied eyes; Coleridge, eyes of RA ate ‘ys ong the artists, too, eyes of this colorabound. Blaek eyes, or what are consfdered such, are indicative of passionate ardor in love. Brown eyes, when not of the yellowish tint, but pure russét brown, show an affectionate disposition; the darker the brown—that is, the more they verge on to that deepest of brown wnich in eyes we are in the habit of calling black—the more ardent and passionate is the power of affection. The brown eyes which do not appear black— that is, which are not dark enough to apy so—are the eyes of sweet, gentle, and unselfish natures, without the inconstancy ofthe light brown or yellow eyes—‘golden eyes,” as they were called by @ lady novelist, and which are very litle more to be trusted than the green eyes. Green eyes, although thelr praises are often sung in Spanish ballads, | show deceit and coquetry. @ sometimes see eyes which are a combination of yellow, ‘and blue, the latter color general; appearing in streaks over the whole surface of the iris, while the orange and yellow are set in flakes of unequal size around and at some little distance from the pupilof the eye. Eyesof this varlety of tints show intellect, or at any rate a certain origi- nulity ofcharaeter. No commonplace nature has this sort of eye. Hasty, irritable persons have frequently eyes of a brownish tint inclined wa nish hue. Although the purely green eye indicates deceit and coquetry, the propen- sity to greenish tints in. the eyes is a sign of wisdom and courage. Very choleric persons, if they have blue eyes, have also certain tints’ of green in them, and when under the influence of Anger a sudden red ligne appears in them, here are eyes which are remarkable for being of what might be said to be of no color. ‘The iris has only some shades of biue or pale gray, 80 feeble as to be almost white in some parts, and the shades of orange which Inter- Yene are so small that they can scarcely be dis- Unguished from gray or white, notwithstand- ing the contrast of colors. The black of the pupil is in these eyes too marked, because the color of the iris around it is not deep enough, so that in looking at them we seem to see only the pupil. These eyes are expressionless, for {helt glance 1s fixed and dead; they invariably belong to persons of the lymphathie tempera- ment, and they indicate a listless and feeble ciseeeision, incapable of enterprise, and a cold and indolently selfish nature. i When Making a € THE ARRANGEMENT OF CHAIRS A VERY IM- PORTANT MATTER—SOME SUGGESTIONS. From Good Housekeeping. ‘Where do people wish to sit down when they make a call?

Near to- gether, not at points, equally distant from a common center. Shall an affectionate family sitIndian fashion round the edges of their home, each in his own fixed place? The result is certain to be Indian silence and monotony. Put dowr in black and white such questions seem too frivolous for consideration, but in fact they arise daily in multitudes ‘of homes. Chairs being to sit in, it follows that the use for which the room is'intended Is the first ques- tion to be asked. The parlor, which, in most families, is the quiet corner where a guest may. spend an uninterrupted half hour during a social call, needs some easy chairs, lest the wearied visitor never comes again; but it needs still more, light chairs—and more than one— that can easily be move about.

The game was called promptly at 4 o'clock, and continued until the last spectntor had prepared to leave the grounds, The audience, though cordial, was comparatively orderly, and less than twenty ejections were made from the tented enclosure in which the display | occurred. Patrolman Fred Coffin was stationed on a stepladder at the corner pole of the canvas wall, from which he prevented many of the admiring spectators from firting with the fair angel who raked in files in the right field. ‘The fairies of the fleld were in fine form and fitted coyly over the lux- Uriantsward as blithe and chipper ass May- day butterfly. Miss Agnes Macfarlane, the ex- quisite and amiable change catcher of the nine, was suffering from indispesition, and was un- able to play. She gladly consented to apj in uniform, however, and distribute taste printed score cards among the audience at the Tate of five cents a distribution. The beauties ‘at the bat were attired in red hose and striped skirts, and their charming carriage and deport- ment on the ground captivated all eyes, The ‘audience was thoroughly representative, am umber bell inner, Col.

O'Rourke, and has missed the ball but twice this season. ' She sent a cow- slip-cutter to short rightcenter and tripped jauntily to first. While the pitcher was monkey- tng with @ reversible down-shoot twist she made a dandy sneak to second, and. stole home ‘on two fumbies by the left fielder, The Neenahs were badly rattled when they left the field. It was evident that they could not get on to the balls sent in by Miss Royalston, the expert and lady-like pitcher of the visitors, Miss Roy- alston formerly lived at Detroit, and learned the art irom a study of Shaw, the'wizard, She takes a graceful three-lap pirouettce on the left toe, and while the batsman is dazzled by the rapidity with which the stripes of her polonaise tly by, the ball comes out from somewhere, and the umpire calls a strike. She scorns to de- scend to the intentional intimidation practised by some of the “pacers” of the pitching arena Inst season, and relies solely on strategy and skill. ‘The most thrilling episode occurred in the seventeenth inning, when Miss Florence Me- Kusick, the Mercury-footed short stop of the female 'nine, chased’a base runner from first clear around the line, placing the ballon him when within two rods of the home plate. The audience for the time forgot everything in the exhilaration of its enthusiasm. Transported Spectators crowded into the dimond around young lady, and tenderly lifting her fair form upon the’ shoulders of two prominent members of the Corn Exchange, she was car- ried across the ground and back amid thunders of plaudits. Miss Agnes McDonohue, on first base, was very flip, aud whenever she gracetully leaned forward to piek upa dizzy grounder, was the cynosure of hundreds of admiring glances, Miss Clara Belle Corcoran, a grand niece of Larry Corcoran, the famous pitcher, held down the third bag.’ Miss Corcoran’s face bears. a striking similarity to Raphael's renowned water color of the Circassian beauty, formerly exhib- ited at Patsy Cardiff's place, ‘and the resem- blance was pointed out by nearly every one on the grounds. The only thing, that occurred to mar the serenity.of the day's pleasure Was a shocking flirtation between Mr. Chauncey Pul- sifer, the second baseman of the Neenahs, and Miss Gertrude Bagley, the brilliant brunette who covered lett field for the opposition. Mr. Pulsifer went to the excess on one occasion of remarking to Miss Bagley that she was a “lollab.” “Barring this there were no flagrant violations of the code of ethics that are worth speaking of.

Nothing looked easter than to imitate that swarthy Itallan, to stand up on the rear end of the gondola, and dip the oar in and out of the water, “You looked tired,” I said to the gondoller; “if you like you may rest awhile and I will row for ou.” * fad I offered to stand on my head and walk to Milan the man could not have looked more astonished, “You signore?” he exclaimed; “why, you couldn't even learn to stand up here under two months. “Pooh,” said I, “I have rowed boats on the Mississippi—from Memphis as far as Hopefleld.
