Many Honest Citizens
Have Criminal Faces
Hbtp you a crimiriHl face? Of courn*
yon Imven’t, you enlaltu Indlifnantly.
Yet thousands of absolutely respecta
ble, law-abldlne citizens have devel
oped, or jire developing criminal face*,
remarks London Answers.
How? Reeause, with defective eye-
slftht, they shirk wearing glasses. Mi
nus glasses, anyone with impaired
vision screws his or her eyes up and
peers. That's to get a focus; hut the
effect Is to create ttrr--appearance of
furtIverldss, and it depends on the
build of a face whether the furtive
ness increases to an appearance o ( f
craftiness and cunning. ,
Again, there are thousands of ipilt*^
sweet-tempered folk who look III te
pered. Vertical lines uni up tfielr,
forehead as the result of “xciVwinsr"
their eyes. 'J'hus is a “cro/4i" face
made.
It nuiy he argued thnt/what a man
Is In character, and not/w hat tie seems
to he facially, is wliat/eounts. Rut that
applies only to tli^* who know him.
When we meet A stranger our first

Thnt/fs not to say that plainness, or
even/ugliness, If not of the repellunt
type, v\ili my lye us give an adveise ver-
dlct, for charm of manner «.r speech
may frequently cancel these things.
But if the stranger looks at us fur
tively. just because lie ought to be
wearing glasses, and isn't, or, because
of the same omission, looks Ill-tem
pered, what then? We don't take to
him. Our judgment Is wrong, of course;
hut he has asked for it.
The very obvious moral Is If you
need glasses, get them and wear them.
I^n these days we cannot afford to han
dicap ourselves by letting our faces b*
our misfortune. What we look lik®
does really count.

Fish stories are important Items of

visit oyster coiiiniimifies and work the
old shell game. Well, the oysters have
made their beds let them lie In them.
And there are the limpets. They
prowl around at n'ght, but always In
the morning they manage to find their
own tints on the old home rock, and so
save their faces in the eyes of the com
munity. Ah, those sly, frollleking lim
