A pretty, lifelike dimple pan be made to appear on a lady's cheek by means of a specially designed knife with fl very small ami very sharp blade, a daintily liny, keen edged, silvered scoop and a very line needle. A small, straight incision is first made in the llesh. The little scoop is then used lo remove a small portion of the underlying fat, while the sewing to gether Willi the needle the edges of tin cut completes the operation. In a day tr Iwol he stitches are taken out. with k> a week the wound being usually en tirely healed, leaving the becoming lit tie depression in the surface of the skin that is called a dimple. It is not often thai a woman desires the removal of a natural dimple, bul occasionally a man who considers the mark to he a badge of effeminacy de sires io get rid of it. Instead of re moving the superfluous fat from be lieu til the surface a small portion ol , the skin is cut away. The edges of the j dimple are drawn together with : stitches, the incision heals and the tie pression disappears. l-'lKlitiiiSA l.lxttrtls. The ring necked lizard of the Arizona deserts is not a mere devolirer of weak lings. lie is always ready to light, | whether he is challenged by another or ; cornered by a man. When brought to bay in some hole, he opens his jaws and dashes bravely out, snapping at everything which opposes him, and so ! tierce and sudden is his rush that it is impossible lo face ii without llinching. Hy holding two of these lizards loosely by the small of the back and allowing their heads to clash as they struggle to escape, one may be able to induce | combats such as must occur every day ! in the desperate lizard World. Forgetting that they wt re captives, : they would seize upon each other and I vent their thwarted rage to the utmost I in a light which, but for timely inter ; fercnoe, would doubtless lead to the i death of one or the other. Such bull j dog pugnacity is rather unlooked for in lizards, but a student of character could easily read in the set jaw and pouched throat of this species the signs i of lighting blood.

I For the beue lit of the unsuspecting reader, adds the I -:illiin i <■ American, u e will state that | "cue" and "frozen" also are billiard i terms.
