CHARACTER IN WOMEN'S HAlF Golden and Red-Headed Ones Cal Both Love and Hate Ardently, Says Writer. Have you a head of midbrow1 tresses? The majority of British girls ar brown haired-the coloring is typica of our temperament, and shows e happy blending of our traits, a write tn London Answers observes. The head generally rules the heart among women of this coloring, wh are blessed with a good supply of "el bow grease" and common sense. For vim and vivacity look to the curly-headed girl; her rippling locks are eloquent of vitality and energy more than any other kind of hair. This girl belongs to the "push and go" vari ety, and is not easily balked in hex determination, and would never lose an opportunity of promotion through shyness or fear. Next to her in energy comes the straight-haired, dark woman. She has not the vivacity of the woman with curls, but she has intensity, passion and determination beyond other wom en, and is able to influence others. - Impulsive, warm-hearted, yet a trnife capricious is the woman passessin ;, golden or red hair. She can both lovi and hate very ardently, but is not a' ways sincere in either. Very fair-haired damsels are apt tc be rather colorless by nature as wel as by coloring, but they make excel lent business women, and are usuall: cool and collected in an emergency. Refinement and gentleness is alway i-- indicated by fine hair; coarse, heav: hair generally denotes a strong con stitution and an obstinate disposition ANIMALS THAT NEVER EA' Many Mechanical Appliances Hav Been Given the Names of Birds and Beasts. Have you ever realized what a num ber of scientific appliances have bees named after animals? And can yol furnish an explanation? A mechanic puts his work upon a horse, or buck, and, he punches o bends it by a convenient bear. Hoist ing is done by a crab, a convenien eat is part of the outfit of a sho) crane, and a kit of tools is ever a hard. A crow helps to straighten work, jack to lift it; a mule pulley helps t drive machinery which a donkey en gine turns. A fish connects parts enm to end, shells are used all over, whil .a worm does quiet but powerful work Again, a cock shuts off the water a ram lifts it. A printing press has : fly, the first locomotives had a grass hopper valve motion, and butterfi valves are common. Zerring-bone gears are used by th best builders; turtles fit printing pres cylinders, and fly wheels are runnin all over the world. In drilling, even an old man is called into service, an doctors prevent faulty lathe work. Giant. and Dwarf Honey Bees. In some of the East Indian Island and on the mainland of Hindusta are to be found the smallest speciE of honey bees In the world. Thea dwarf honey collectors are known i entomologists as Apis fiores. .Thej honeycombs are no longer than child's hand and the cells are abot the size of a small pin head. Thi honey Is excellent, as Is the wax. Tb little creatures build the comb o the branch of a low tree, and as the have not to provide for winter the work all the year through, raisina broods like themselves. In the same land there Is a speciE of giant bees, Apis dorsata, as larg as5 a field cricket. These monsters< the bee world build honeycombs tha are from six to seven feet In lengtl four or more in width, and weig from 300 to 400 pounds each. * Disqualified by Wisdom. -The lawyer was examining him coi cerning his qualificatIons as a juro: "Have you ever served on a juryl :he asked. l"No, sir," answered the man.

During a summer's sojourn in her native home in Texas, Mrs. T. P. O'Connor, the talented wife of "Tay Pay," wrote a book on the traits and individal characteristics of various dogs that she has owned or known. While in New York. on the eve of her return to England, she was inter viewed by a representative of the New York Sun. to whom she told the fol lowing story of a dog owned by Bar rie, the famous novelist and dramatist. The dog was evidently the prototype of the Newfoundland in Barrie's "Lit tle White Bird." "Mr. Barrie told me this story," said Mrs. O'Connor. "He said that the dog had a craze for dolls. They would pass a shop, and the dog would see a doll displayed in the window and manifest a wish for one. When Mr. Barrie priced the dolls, the clerk would invariably ask how old was the child for whom it was intended. And because he was ashamed to say that the doll was for the dog, he would reply: 'Four years,' as that was the age of the Newfoundland. "One Sunday they went to church in the country. . The dog had been left outside. But he refused to be sep arated from his family. At the first opportunity he squeezed through the door, and Mr. Barrie beheld him march ing up tbc aisl'x as the congregation were -.aitlg for the service to begin. Wih a fascinated gaze lis owner watched him make his lumbering way to the pulpit stairs and then ascend them. He looked all round, turning his head this way and that, in search of his oaster. Then, to gain better vantage, he put his forepaws on the Bible desk and calmly stood there on his hind legs, surveying the assembled congregation. "Mr. Barrie did not wish to establish his responsibility for such behavior, and sat petrified lest the chancel door should open and the rector appear, who hated and was afraid of dogs. Miss Barrie, his sister, solved the dif ficulty by going up and gently leading 'Porthos' down."-Youth's Companion. PROPER DIET FOR LAZY MEN Physician Advocates Liberal Feeding to Keep Person of Sedentary Habits in Proper Condition. A proper diet for a person of seden tary habits whose bodily functions are inclined to sluggishness, as sug. 'gested by Dr. Tom A. Williams of Washington, is as follows: "A glass of hot water before ris ing; grapefruit or two oranges in the morning with abundance of cereal, milk, and whole wheat bread with sirup; an ample lunch about the mid die of the day, taken leisurely in pleasant surroundings, and a meal at night, preferably without meat, fish or eggs, taken in a leisurely fashion, also. One or two apples might be eaten just before retiring. One or two glasses of water during the morning and in the afternoon. "Good respiratory habits must be acquired. Ten minutes in the morn ing while dressing, spent in taking slow abdominal muscle exercises, w ith deep breathing, should begin the day. They should be repeated for two o: three minutes before luncheon, in the evening and before bed. A correct posture in a comfortable chair should be adopted at the desk, especial at. tention being given to prevent sagging of the abdominal muscles." Toadskins Cure Dropsy. Toads have always been looked up on as loathsome and even poisonous b: country people. From the skins, how ever, of toads, quacks in the middli ages used to make all sorts of medi cines to sell to their patients. The remarkable discovery has been made by Doctor Abel that the quacks were not so far wrong as many people thought. He made a study of a giant tropical toad found in the river Ama zon, and from its skin he extracteda remarkable substance which cure: dn psy. Of course it has long been a "grand mother's remedy" to cure dropsy by means of the skin of a toad, and 1 was to find out if there was an-, +rut] in the remedy that Doctor Abel hxgar experimenting. The same substanc< he found in this tropical species h< has also found in the common toad Soon doctors will prescribe,,perhaps boiled toad and caper sauce 'for drop sical patients.
