A Grewsome Foe, Oh, flee from bis pathway, all creatures of vice. And likewise all good men and true; For he handles a weapon more cruel than nice. And its terros are thirsting for you. His wounds are not mortal. He chal lenges not To combat that reddens with blood. But the blushes he raises are never forgot; The man with a handful of mud. And he hurls it on high, and he watches it spread. And Ids laug echoes fearful nnd loud. He cares not, though some may alight on his head. If it only bespatter the crowd. The whiter the object, the deeper the stain, ' When abuse covers all In Its flood; But his joys are his own, and he laughs at their pain; The man with a handful of mud.

WRINKLES REVEAL CHARACTER By the Lines in Your Face We Tell the Story of Your Life. A phrenologist can describe a per son's character and peculiarities more or less accurately by examining his "bumps-," and a physiognomist can diagnose one's character from the fea tures, but a dermatologist has discov ered that wrinkles are a wonderful aid in dissecting a person's general charac terstlcs. A Chicago dermatologist says: ' Life In crowded cities writes its various emotions upon the plastic faces of the people, and the surging stream of hu manity as it Jostles its way with, the pitiless hurry and absorption in the pursuit of wealth, pleasure and happi ness, strives to catch and enchain the desire of the heart. Time and worry mark their victims with a surety that none can mistake and character and expression are lent to a face by Its lines. The horizontal lines upon the fore head are produced by mental anxiety, the worry nnd fret of life, and they In dicate a tendency to nervous anxiety and are wholly opposed to the serenity of unruffled brows. Short, horizontal lines Just above the roof of the nose in dicate benevolence; when found Just be low the roof of the nose they show' one that Is accustomed to exercise authori ty, especially when it takes the form of forbidding. " A single vertical wrinkle between the eyebrows shows strict honesty In money matters. A disposition to require Jus tice in others is indicated by two wrin kles each side of the first; while wrin kles outward from these show conscien tiousness. These UneB are often marked in those deeply absorbed in business. In thinkers, writers and inventors; and with straight, lowered brows indicate strong concentration of purpose, long and . hard thinking and absorption in affairs. The lines raying outward from the eyes, show capacity for enjoyment, as well as the two deep furrows from the mouth by the upper lip. They are the penalty we pay for mirth and form the future channel of the tear. Either per pendicular or curved wrinkles below the angle of the mouth Indicate a love of truth, and hatred of cant and hypoc risy. When these lines are very marked, it begets grumbling at men and things in general. Hate draws the lower Hp still further downward, exposing the under teeth. Lines extending down ward from the angle of the mouth to ward the chin, when marked, show a tendency of sadness and melancholy. One who has these wrinkles takes a serious view of life, and does not look upon it as a holiday, but as a season of work and struggle involving much re sponsibility. We notice these lines In a mother's face when she is mourning for a child. Poor health will also bring these lines by affecting the mind's out look upon life. Hospitality marks the face with Ir regular curved lines, not far from the outer angles of the mouth. When tlu'y are pronounced, a warm welcome is given to a stranger within the gates. Low, projecting eyebrows indicate discernment; when accompanied by eye lids that mure nearly close the eye, this denotes less facility of Impression, but a clearer Inslght.more definite Ideas and greater permanence and steadiness of action. Narrow-eyed persons see less, but think more and feel more Intensely. These are true Indications of charac ter that are revealed by wrinkles. There are. however, many people who possess some of the characteristics herein described who have not the ac companying wrinkles. In these days of dermatolugical skill no one need go through life with a wrinkled face, for WTinkles are easily and painlessly removed. If the police board was acquainted with the possibilities of the dermatolo gist In regard to Improving and chang ing the nose, ears, mouth and other features, the board would not place such confidence In the iBertillon system, which consists of measuring the fea tures of criminals Instead of having the criminals photographed. It is possible for one to have his entire personal appearance bo changed that lndentlficatlon would be practically Im possible, A dermatologist would not lend his skill In defeating the ends of justice, but the fact that It Is possible to set the famous Bertlllon system at defiance is at least Interesting. HE SHED IIIS SKIN. Caso of an Eight-Year Old, Who Wriggled Out of His Cnticle. Lake City (Fin.) Dispatch Cincinnati En quirer. The case of John Allen, an 8-year-old boy of this place, is puzzling the physicians. Six weeks ago an orange thorn penetrated the boy's hip, Inflam mation followed and the boy was soon horribly swollen from head to foot. Finally the swelling subsided, but the boy immediately began to shed his skin. That on the face came off sep arately, but from the neck down the cuticle remained Intact and moved off by way of the hands and feet without breaking. The cuticle was five days in passing off, and during that time the boy remained on the bed wriggling like a snake at moulting time. The child seemed to be in no pain, but complained of a tickling sensation and of a crawl ing of the flesh. When the cuticle had been shed the boy immediately recov ered, and Is now as well as ever. The skin which is shed is on exhibition at a physician's office. It is a perfect cast of the human form from the neck down, and Is about the consistency of hard glue, which It much resembles. Vnconqucrcd. "That man," said the cannibal warrior, "had the most argumentative nature 1 ever encountered." "Do you mean the one that you Just ate?" "Yes.

He doesn't agree with me yet." Washington Star, Free Expressions ol' Opinion. From the Chicago Tribune.
