Although the purely green eye
indicates deceit and coquetry, the pro
pensity to greenish tints in the eyes is
a sign of wisdom and courage. # Very
choleric persons, if they have bine eyes,
have also certain tints of green in them,
and when under the influence of anger
- sudden red light appears in them.
There are eyes which are remarkable
for being of what might be said, to be
of no color. The iris has only some
shades of bine or pale gray, so feeble
to be almost white in some parts,
id the shades of orange which inter-
mc are so small that they can scarce
ly be di6tinqnished from gray or white,
notwithstanding the contrast of colors.
The black of the pupil is in these eyes
too marked, because the color of the
iris around it is not deep enough,
that in looking at them we seem to

' A Littlo Girl’s Will.

made by a little girl in New York,
nine years of age, evidently after read

‘•I, Mary Ann Smith, do give and

the little, house glowed like a red-hot
coal. Big cinders dropped from the
roof. Then the man came again from
his tent, bearing in his hand a plate,
upon which was a raw beef-wteak. Hi
entered the fiery furnace through the
crackling doorway and laid the plate
upon an iron framework inside. Then
ho lay down on a bed of coals and
watched the beef cook.
Pretty soon the edges of the plate
lopped over, and the molten matter
trickled down the framework. The

have occnlar and other satisfactory
proofs of the remarkable change that
has taken place as regards her physical
condition.

age ot sixteen, and consisted of a grad
ual loss ot the muscular power of the
lower limbs, at that time more’ espe
cially in her knees. Tho affliction
grew and extended until in a few years
she was an invalid, unable to get np or
down or scarcely to walk across the
floor without assistance. Nine years
ago sh|s foil down the steps of their
house, then in the northern snbnrbs of
onr town, and broke her right ankle
and right arm. The fractured limbs
healed, but Mrs. M. was more helpless
than before. Three and a half years
ago she received another fall. Sho was
standing np supporting herself by the
bed. The bed was accidentally moved
and this threw her from her balance,
and being unable to move either foot,
ahe fell backwards to the floor, break

injuries natural from her heavy weight
* Utterly helpless condition. . Since
i accident, while gaining a partial 1
of her hands and arms, although
unable to get them to her head, she has
been completely helpless in body, pa-
able to tarn horself in bed or lift her
foot from the floor. Her rolling chair
has been her constant companion by
day, and from this she was placed on
her bed at night and moved only as she
was assisted, the dressing and undress
ing devsloping entirely npon others.
Her spine was stiff and carved back
wards, and one of her feet wes draws
sideways so that the bottom oonld
scarcely be made to touch the floor.
This hiu been her condition for more
than three years, and this wae her con*
ditioa. a little more then a week ago.
And all thie time Mrs. Morgan has
