THE SOUTHERN "WORLD, OCTOBER 15, 1881
9
It is surprising how much can be learned
from a face. Physiognomy seldom lies. This
lady with the diamonds in her ears is not a
person of position. Her dress is faultless,
her movement elegant; she is very hand
some, but "somehow you know." It is that
peculiar, half-doubtful, half-supercilious ex
pression of hers that tells its own story. She
is at once defiant and ashamed. Yonder sits
an ill-dressed man, near a fair and tidy, mid
dle-aged woman, but there is a gracious,
matronly look upon her face. You place
her at once as honest wife and careful
mother. You have no doubt of her, nor of
the girl at her side, her daughter. The lan
guage of the face is very plainly written, if
one will only learn to read it. I think if
girls knew this—if they took it to heart and
believed it—it would be well for them. This
wish to look well is strong in all feminine
hearts; with this end in view they will
starve or take bitter medicine, rub bismuth
or arsenic upon their faces, cover their hands
and foreheads witli sticky pastes on retir
ing, and forbid themselves fresh, breezy
walks or pleasant sails for fear of tanning.
Yet, at the same time, they will think and
do many things which stamp on expression
not to be coveted upon their young faces,
and quite forget that, after all, the face is
but as a vace which the lamp of the soul
illuminates, and that the best beauty comes
from within.
The Art Amateur for October is especially
rich in practical hirts and directions for art
work and home decoration. The supple
ment of designs contains, beside those for
flower and figure painting, a notable one for
an embroidered panel of "Birds and Wild
Roses,” the first of a series from the Royal
School of Art Needlework at South Kensing
ton. The frontispiece is a fine drawing by
Piton of a superb portrait plaque from the
famous Deck factory. A spirited sketch of
the "Genius of Music” by the French deco
rator, Galland, forms another striking full
page illustration; a decorative ceiling by
Faivre, and two of the Vanderbilt painted
windows, are also given. The recent Ham-
ilton sale receives much attention, and
many of the most noteworthy paintings and
other objects sold are illustrated. There is
a vigorous article on the artists Courbet and
Baudry, and a very interesting account of
the new art of "Lustra Painting,” lately
taken up by the British “upper ten.” If any
of our readers are still unacquainted with
The Art Amateur it will pay them to send for
the October issue. Price, $4 a j ear; single
numbers, 35 cents. Montague Marks, pub
lisher, 23 Union Square, New York.

Women in the habit of talking in loud
and forcible language to their husbands
should profit by the following:
••The human lungs reverberate sometimes with great
velocity,
When windy Individuals Indulge In much ver-
boslty.
They have to twirl the glottis sixty thousand times
a minute,
And push and punch the diaphragm as though the
deuce were in It.
Chorus-The pharynx now goes up;
The larynx, with a slam,
Ejects a note
From out the throat,
Pushed by the diaphragm."
The dimensions of. the tunnels of the
Northern Pacific Railroad, as given by Chief
Engineer Anderson, are as follows : At the
Big Horn, 1,100 feet, now completed; through
Bozeman Pass, 3,000 feet; at the Mullan
Pass, near Helena, 3,050 feet; at the Mullan
grade, 600 feet, and at the Blackfoot, 300
feet—in all, 9,360 feet. The heaviest work
is at the Bozeman and Mullan Passes.
The raising of lavender in England has be
come an important industry. The harvest is
gathered in August. The flowers are then
cut and taken to the distillery followed by
immense numbers of bees which are partic
ularly fond of the odor. About 30,000 gal
lons of spirltsof lavender are annually made.

wife has Just come with his dinner, and the two chil
dren, all looking happy and contented with life. Who
Is turned with her back to the looker-on, holding In

she Is transferring the Infant child to Its father's
arms. He is taking It with tender care.wlille an expres
sion of happy pride mingles with that ot fatigue and

tall grass, while the scene Is Hooded with the bright
beams ot the noon-day sunlight.
In the dark background Is n grove or wood, where
a silent, lonely figure, draped In widow's weeds,
stands amid the shadows, and with a sad, downcast
countenance, gases upon the happy group before her
with a far-away look, as If recalling the days when
ahe. too, was huppy.or viewing the contrast between
this family and her owu blighted life. It can but
touch the hearts ot both sides—the happy and the
