Acting_on_impulse, the charmingly dressed American took the basket, went from door to door along the street, and sold to the astonished housewives every piece in the basket, laying the money in the grateful Hungarian’s lap! “Oh, it may have helped the woman a little, but think what a wonderful time I had doing it!” she exclaimed afterward.

A great deal of character can be told from the ears if one is the least bit clever. Not very much has been written on this subject. As a general rule large ears belong to coarse na- tures and thick cars to brutal ones. Small ears indicato refinement, long ears an intelectual nature, pointed ears a whimsical one. What is known as “good blood” or good family can ! be told better by the ears than by | other feature, for the shape of jthe ears will go down unmodified | through many generations of a fam- jily. There is the famous Bourbon car, so well known that it got many a_descendant of that royal family in | trouble after the French Revolution. Whatever you can do to your other features, you can't change the shape of your ears. But if they're ugly you can cover them up, which is a great comfort; and if they do not lie flat You can train them into position by wearing earcaps at night, or by hav- ing a simple and inexpensive opera- tion performed. Many cases of apparent deafness are due to nothing but badly cared for ears.
