CHARACTER IN HANOWRl‘l‘lNP.
Easy Way to Make Accurate Analysis of n
Person's Disposition.
For a little impromptu fun when a
few friends happen to drop in ask
each one to write any quotation that
pops into his or her head and care-
fully sign name in full. Pen and ink
are better than pencil, but the latter
will answer in a pinch. If the writing
is dark this shows a leaning toward
athletics and a love for outdoor life
and sports. If the letters areslender
and faint the writer is reserved and
‘ rarely Shows emotion or becomes cou-
iidental. Sloping letters indicate a
very sensitive disposition, whereas
those that are straight up and down
evince ability to face the world and
throw off the “slings and arrows of
outrageous fortune."
Curls and loops are out of fashion
nowadays, but any inclination to or-
nate penmanship is a sure indication
of a leaning toward the romantic and
sentimental, while the least desire to '
shade a letter shows imagination and
a tendency to idealize common things.
If the same letter is formed different-
ly by the same person this shows love
of change. Long loops or endings to
the letters indicate that the writer
“wears his heart upon his sleeve,” 01
in ofiher words, is trusting, non-secre-
tive, and very. fond of company. If
the “y” has a specially long finish
this shows atfectation, but if tlhe same
person is also careless about crossing
the “ts,” the combination is an un
happy one, as it points to fickleness if.
work and affectaltion. A curved
cross on the “t,” or the incurving or
the tifkt letters of a word shows an
affectionate and good-natured dispos-
ition if taken separately; but if the
two are indulged in by the same writ
or it is a sign of jealousy. _
Writing that is rather small points
to cleverness, quick intuitions, a lik-
ing for one’s own way. brilliant intel-
lect, and fine powers of penetration.

CACHES IN THE ARCTIC REGION.
Places ‘Vherc Explorers Store their l’rv—
VlSlHllS.
An Artie expedition moving ovar-
land practically always intends to 1'"
turn by the same route. liven in
these days of compressed foods the
weight of several months‘ provcudt-z
for a large party is cousidcrabiw.
Therefore it is stored in cam. :-
along the route, several days' jfllll‘lli‘j.‘
apart
What is simply a hole in the ground
is first dug—a matter of extreme dif-
ficulty at times. Then, painfully dig-
ging elsewhere. earth is brought to
the surface, and a quantity of this is
dumped into the hole. Ice is meltc-‘i
and the water from it poured upon
the ear‘uh. the entire mixture freon
ing in a few moments into a compac:
cache. On it the provisions the parts
want to put aside for a future day
are laid, so many pounds for each
man, carefully calculated. There
should be just enough to support life
comfortably until the next cache is
reached on the return, with two or
three days“ rations over for emergen-
cies.
\Vith stones. ice and snow the walls
of the cache are now built up, watci
being poured over the snowy struct-
ure hermetically to seal it. It is a
point of honor, among even the poor-
est natives. not to rifle a cache unless
in cases of the direst necessity; but
the provisions must be kept safe
from the bears. Properly built, the
structure is impregnable, and it needs
the work of pickaxes to tear it open.
It is marked by anything the ex-
plorers can spare or find, in the vicin-
ity, generally by a staff of wood. 11)
Siberia the tooth of a mammoth is
not infrequently used. Despite this
precaution, however, many caches can
never be found again.
If rendered provisionlcss in this
manner, the party must resort to its
guns and hunt for the musk ox, thi-
white bear and the seal, which some-
timer are in easy reach, but more fre-
quently not to he found at all. Game
in these regions is never to be de-
pended upon. " '
Painting the Emperor's Portrait.
Not long ago the German Emperor
wished to have his portrait painted
by an English painter, and a certain
well-known artist was recommended
to him. The artist received and ac-
cepted the imperial commission, ar~
rived at Berlin, and made the ac-
quaintance of the Kaiser. The artist
prepared for rthe first sitting with
some considerable dread. He was
conducted to a very large room in the
palace, scantily furnished in cheer-
ess splendor, where the Kaiser await-
ed him. “You don’t like this room?”
said the Kaiser, before many minutes
had elapsed. “What sort of a room
would you like?” “Oh,” said the art-
ist,” “a small room, cosey and com-
fortably furnished.” “I thought so,”
said the Kaiser; I didn’t choose this
room.” "Then they inspected rooms to-
gether, till the artist was satisfied.
Then the sitting began. "Now,” said
the Kaiser, a few minutes later, “you
don’t paint like that at home; you are
not comfortable; how do you like
painting?" “Well, coat otf——hat on—
pipe,” said the artist, tersely. - “Just
80,” said the Kaiser, “that is exactly
how I should like you to paint. Now,
do make yourself at home and com-
fortable, and we will talk about Eng-
land.” Then and there the German
Emperor-and the English artist mh
made a friend—Twin.

VARIETY IN net-non.

Stitching on Skirts.
{By special arrangement. with the ELY. Sun.)
The diversity in style is! perhaps
more apparent in~the coats and skirts
than in any other branch of dress, yet
there is no end of variety, whichever
way you turn. Eton coats, as a part
of the costume matching the skirt, are
shown side by side with the long cut-
away, among the French models, as
equally good style. Waistcoats are
the proper thing with any coat, how-
ever plain or dressy, whatever the
shape may be, providing it is worn
open in front. Some of the most stun-
ning waistcoats are quite masculine in
cut, fitting the figure closely, and
made double breasted with the same
narrow round revers of a man’s vest.
It is low out like an evening vest, and
in place of the stiff shirt front, there

ori sheer linen lawn, finely tucked and
worn with a linen collar and narrow
necktie. The lace front with color to
match, is more becoming and feminine
in appearance, and :1 rolled collar of
the silk turning over at the back adds
very much to the effect. The double-
breasted front forms two blunt points
just below the waist, and is fastened
with two rows of large fancy buttons.
either two or three on each side.
Other waistcoats have draped fronts
folded and crossed to one side, sur-
plice fashion. but in cither‘cuse it is
the soft white chemisette that makes
them so attractive.
Machine stitching is decidedly the
thing for trimming all cloth gowns,
whether they are light or dark in
color and despite the fact that there
are so many new novelties in braid
and applique trimmings.
The expense in this sort of de-
coration is in the labor, of course, but
it is enough to offset the price of some
of the other gnrnitures. It is especial-
ly genteel when it is well applied.
however. an“

Entirely plain skirts are not in sight
this season. and this simple mode of
trimming is a sort of compromise be-
tween those which are overtrimmcd
and the plain ones which have been
so much in favor. The striking effect

The Military Cloak.
New traveling wraps for lengthy
journeys are military cloaks, quite as
long as an ulster, to be worn with or .
without a cape. The fronts are semi-
loose, and the backs fitted and some-
times belted. Many of these wraps
are made of army-blue cloth, and the
fronts are fastened with medium-sized
gilt buttons. The deep cape is fast-
ened by and trimmed with stitched
straps of the cloth and is alone a sum-
cient wrap for many occasions. Check-
ed and striped-""cloths, lightly and
roughly woven, and otners of dark
color and finer grain, said to be abso-
lutely waterproof, are made in redin-
gote style, much after the fashion of
coachmen’s coats, with and without.
shoulder-capes, and will be used for
traveling and morning, walks.
-It Does Not Make Fat.
It is now a well known fact generally con-
ceded by doctors and chemists that fat taken
into the stomach does not create fat.
Mr. Edward T. Vance, of Ansonia, Conn.,
speaking of this subject, and in connection
with the superiority of Vinol over all greasy,
obnoxious forms of cod liver oil, says :—
“ Having investigated Vinol thoroughly,
the one great point that strikes me as making
it invaluable is the fact you have succeeded
entirely in eliminating the useless fat or
grease from what has always been a valuable
remedy. You have retained the curative
principles of the cod's liver, and that, too, in
a highly concentrated form. We all know
that fat taken into the stomach does not make
fat. Therefore Vinol will prove to be more
efficient than cod liver oil has ever been in any
other form.”
Y'nol has just the right properties to enable
the stomach to obtain from everyday food
the proper elements to create new flesh tissue
and pure, rich blood, and so it has become the
greatest factor known to science for the cure
of consumption an other wasting diseases.
Yours very truly,
