A LESSON IN ANTHROPO
METRY.
By W. A. Tyson.
The study of Anthropometry
may seem an idle play, and the
greatest foolishness to many,
yet it has done much toward ad
vancing society.
Scientists do not claim that
in every instance are their de
ductions true. They merely
claim that those of certain hab
its and traits are apt to possess
certain features. In 95 per
cent, of the cases this is entirely
correct. Some of the well
known signs of character fol
low:
A person who cannot “look
you squarely between the eyes”
will rarely do to trust. He is
evasive, underhanded, not to be
trusted. Large, lustrious eyes
denote affection. Steely blue
eyes, rapid in their glances from
object to object, denot quick wit
and instant decision.
Ripe, red lips invite dalliance,
which is contrary to the thin,
hard, dry line of the angular
embittered “old maid.” A
mouth kept partly open is often
a sign of absent-mindedness, of
uncomprehending surprise;
firm lips and chin denote resolu
tion, a character thoroughly
comprehending; the receding
chin implies mental weakness
and lack of purpose.
A low, receding forehead, de
veloped in the rear denotes
criminal instincts; so do ears
below a straight line from the
eyes; while if found with a
mowing jaw and glassy stare in
the eyes, it denotes idiocy.
Frowning eyebrows imply
fierce temper; supercilious eye
brows, critical faculties; tilted
eyebrows, unsteady nature.
The importance of this can
readily be seen. “If Cleopatra’s
nose had been a little shorter,
the map of Europe would have
been changed.” Likewise, had
it been a little longer. Helen of
Troy needed only a cast of eye
to have prevented the stirring
adventures of the Iliad and the
Odyssey. Queen Elizabeth only
needed a “sour face” to change
her loyal, chivalrous court into
disorder and plots. And if it
were not for the marking of dif
ference in features the mother
and child could not recognize
each other, and empire today
would be chaos.

RINGLING CIRCUS
AT MAQON.
Great Spectacle of “Joan of Arc”
Added to their Show.
Ringling Brothers’ Circuis and newly
added $500,000 spectacle of “Joan of
Arc,” will exhibit in Macon, on Tues
day, October Bth. The spectacle in
itself is an attraction 1 ’ that should
bring thousands of visitors from the
surrounding country. It is beyond
question the greatest production of its
kind ever seen in America.
The World’s most skillful scenic art
ists, costumers, property-makers, cho
rus directors and stage managers were
engaged to mount the production. A
stage bigger than a hundred ordinary
theatres was built and made portable
so that it can be conveyed from town
to town and erected each morning in
the main tent. Thus the circus propri
etors have made it possible for those
who live in contributory towns as well
as in the large cities to see this mag
nificent wordless play with its east of
1,200 characters, a ballet of' 300 danc
ing girls, a grand opera chorus of 400
> voices, COO horses and a train load of
special scenery, costumes, properties
and mechanical devices for producing
sneh stage effects as thunder, lightning,
storms, fires, and the sound of battle.

by which the French of today have
sought to redeem their part in the ex
ecution of Joan of Arc, who on May
30, 1431, was burned to death on the
false charge of herpsy after having
delivered her country from the English
and after having restored the crown to
Charles VII. History i ecords but the
meager facts of this strange heroine of
eighteen years ,who led the armies of
France victorious through English in
vasion, and then, deserted by all, even
the indolent monarch whom she pre
served, died by the cruelest torture
known with the name of the Master up
on her lips. Unsung in poetry the name
this simple peasant girl has come down
through the ages to be revered as that
of a saiut, and whose wonderful powers
and whose bravery are verily believed
to have been of divine inspiration.
On the triumphant incidents, the vic
torious engagements, the final defeat
of the English armies, and the corona
tion of Charles VII, all achieved by the
frail Maid of Orleans, has been founded
the inspiring spectacle which gives
Ringling Brothers’ Circus a new sig
nificance and makes an attraction such
as the world in seaching for amuse
ment has never before found.
The regular circus program is more
than ever attractive. Its company of
375 foreign artists, double menagere,
and its new street parade will prove a
great surprise to those who attend from
this city. The event is one that should
not be missed.
