[ POINTLESS PENNINGS. A Woman's Eyes. Now please don't think the comment man is going to get sentimental for lie's not. lie would like to , talk about u dozen other things, hut 1 he ean't get over the influence of sime eyes he saw a little while ago. For instance he would lik"-?to talk ahout all the good things Fnion is getting thesM days; the mav S-'dll hose wagon, and the regular practice the tireman are having. This is a step forward for our town and : every good citizen ought to lend his hand and heart for the support of such things, and the streetsprinkler is just the thing; we hi ess thee, City Fathers, for this distribution of wetness, May its showers ever eool the undue ardor of Main street beneath the summer sun! And the new military Company is small yet, hut loud. This organization is what Fnion has long needed ; and the. people are with you, ('apt. Foster, so go it. These are intending thing*?hilt those eyes! And the farmers too?well they are far wiser than the writer, uvhen it comes to cotton. But. in another 1 column they see what llnvvfe Jordan and Smith have to wnr. i?. - viillHIlll cotton ami warehouses. ^ f The talkative townsman cr free the other day with hi-k tala iaht.ut Union's opera housP.' In spite of all remonstrances he persisted that the place ought to he I scoured out and painted over again: that then it would he a neat little place and a credit to Union. Hut we should never say anything against anything in our city now since we ' have that hose wagon, the street sprinkler and a promising military company. And that company is all right; some of the best fellows in town are in it; it's a gentleman's company. Iiut those eyes! Well, they were the property of a ! very interesting person, otherwise known as a beautiful baby. Hut j there was another pair, a steel-grey ' that eouhl l?*.U through you; and (yet another pair owned cud eon trolled solely by a most b<n?iu-hing , lady. 111 other words, the com; mcnt man looked at people's eyes i the other day and ho was astonished: hut don't fear, he won't iston: ish his readers for he can't aPord to 1 ti ll all he read in those eyes that I met his; lie is not able to t il the !greatness, the truth, the beauty ot I some; nor would the truth*ii&nu+'i ntl?er<r l>v - in t go grand rascal, take down you,,.y ^<*11 ; ,W1;,+ v/iiii' orlvnvtlk i jt.vil "irouwi , v.ut there's tl^...rub;mn||au^ay,i .^ltl ..? i i-^iTTiii open book ot ifterence, an index to your character. I What is your escape":?Changeyour I i character. l>ut ahout those eyes of woman. ! We arc fully aware that a man ! makes a fool of himself when he hegins to philosophize on woman: hut1 : some men are fools enough to al- i low themselves to bo called fools just J to get an opportunity to talk. But | man is allowed some hints as to; woman's nature, and when he is so! fortunate or unfortunate as to Vie i struck hy the lightning from her i eyes, surely he ought to have the privilege to sit up and from his convalescing couch and talk to his friends about what he has felt. The comment man has been struck with three things about the eyes of woman: the truth, the beauty and the power of them. The eyes of woman tell so plainly the thoughts that are Hitting to and , fro in her mind. Some one has : u-,.11 I.V1I . tlivi "Your eyes,love, arc fairy lashes, ( When: tender thoughts swim softly 1 to and fro." ' And Tennyson adds this thought: i * "Sudden glances, sweet and strange Delicious spites and darling an- j J gers, And airy forms of flitting change, Eight-glooming over eyes divine. Like little clouds sun-fringed." How easy it is for a man who! knows human nature to read the j jj inmost soul of woman through her j y eyes! These the thoughts, whether j j good or had, sweet or hitter, tender p or unkind , loving or hating?all are J (j so well photographed. Eyes are the ! j, windows to a soul; and as Moore ! , . d Aye, more than windows. I 7( would call them conservatories, : f,. where ovevtO 1.5. ' * ......iiMK auuve is glass, ami' j,, >ne lias only to look and behold the j }? lowers that grow within." ' ()f How fortunate that v,Oman, who ins growing within the flowers of. inrerity, pureness, truth, unselfish-1 l.-ssl | tl> Yes, eyes tell the truth about heir owner, and if we only knew it, 1 lie truth is being read everywhere, nd every day. And the truth in ft ti< onian's eyes?how like an angel hit ie becomes! Shelby speaks of the r tin oquenco vt tfvti in onu oi hib abort: Ca Jv ma; 144 ; "How eloquent are eyes! Not music's most impassioned note On which love's warmest f. rvors float. # Like them hids rapture vise." It is not given to mortal power to | describe the beauty, the real beauty i of woman's eyes. From a physical standpoint, the. eye is the most wonderful mechanism in humar structure, hut when a spirit of truth ami beauty shines through them we are carried into the spiritual realm. " The light that never was on land or sea ; " what does Wadsworth mean by this! May he not mean that same soul-light of truth shining through the beautiful eyes! There lies a beauty not of earth and not to be dulled by any power on earth. ' And after all that is true beauty foi it lasts; see what Tennyson says: "v., ..f ....i 1.1 .i..11 ii? IV/ uuot \/l v .11 III UHIIU null IIIUM spirit-thrilling eyes so keen and beautiful." Poor deluded woman so often thinks that man loves only beauty | of face, beauty of form, of mannei i?physical beauty, llis soul yearns 1 for that other and higher beauty, the spiritual, and where does ho set lit? ?through the eyes of woman, i Beauty! men spend a life time seek : ing it; they yearn for an experience th.it Itossetti pictures: "Could you not drink her ga/.e liki w ine? Vet in its splendor swoon i i,.o, <1... c languidly, As a tune into a tune?" We know that heavenly beauty surpasses our broadest conception, hut give a moment's thought to , Bryant's idea: 1 "Thine eyes are springs, in whose serene And silent waters heaven Is seen." But the greatest of the three is tl le power that lies in a woman's .eyes. Do we recall the terrible railroad wreck in the north last year, when scores were killed, and tin ; wrecker when asked his motives, declared, "she made me do it with her eyes." And do we reniemhei ! that Byron was called in Venice, ; the wicked milord with the evil eye. But enough of evil eyes, tin* good is more pleasant. When one realizes the power of livinndivin .???.! isonal magnetism, ho then has some conception of the power in I he hu, man eye. What makes you feel so ieasy or so uneasy in the presence ol ' different people? That's it; that ini definable something that passe! jirowonc A ii death lurks in it, oh, how sweet to die! Tennyson adds: "Thy full hiue eyes that take the heart from out my breast." With her eyes woman can either repel or entice, lift upward or drive downward: her power is without limit. Byron utters an eternal truth when he says: "A glance from thy soul-reaching eye Can raise with hope or depress with fear." ^inee men love the beauty that lies in a woman's eyes, is it not natural to supppose that he will obey any mandates that he may read there? Woman if you only knew the weight of your orders and the deeds caused by but a look, how careful you would be! How many boys are there, and even men, who do not remember their mothers' eyes? We may not remember the color nor anything definite about them, but the influ-1 encc of those eyes is woven into the fibres of our characters. I'ity for! the man or boy who never looked into mother's eyes and read there ihout heaven and CJod. Mother's yes! 'They comfort him night and day: fhey light his little life already; Pliose mild, deep eyes, that knew the beauty and repose of faith, J \nd the clear spirit shining ?i.... ? " Jinn Tillman Egain.
