THE HAIR AND THE EARS.
Harper's Bazaar.
Black hair which is perfectly with
out any wave or curl, and which lies
in lank, lifeless masses, shows a mel
ancholic disposition; a black beard
which grows sparsely gives also the
same indication. .Black hair which
is wavy or curling, and very thick
shows force of affection and certain
ardor in love matters; and so also
does a thick and crisp-textured black
beard and moustache. The lank,
thin, and uncurling black hair ia one
of the signatures of Saturn; the crisp,
curling and thickly growing black
hair is the combination of Venus with
Saturn. The united influence of
these two planets on a life gives force
of character, for the warmth and im
pulse given by Yenus is tempered by
Saturn into prudence which produces
success in life.
Chestnut hair of a soft and silky
texture, and not very thick gives ro
mance of character. This te not the
sort of hair which is ever seen on
very commonplace, realistic persons.
This tint of hair, crisp or curling,
and growing thickly on the head, in
dicates a warm and affectionate na
ture. Men with this s urt of hair, and
with a thickly growing beard, also
crisp or wavy of texture are jovial
and hospitable, and both women and
men of this coloring are fond of soci
ety, have a good deal of "go" in them,
and an immense amount of cofidenco
in themselves. It is essentially one
of the signatures of Jupiter; it indi
cates pride and generosity of charac
ter. Avaricious people never have
hair of this color and texture. "With
full lips and round chin with a dim
ple in it this sort of coloring would
give sensuousness almost amounting
to sensuality.
Golden hair of a soft, pale gold,
without undulation, shows gentleness
and tenderness, but no force of char
acter. Men having thin sort of hair
are somewhat effeminate in their
tastes, and are wanting in energy and
decision. Both men and women hav
ing this pale floss silk sort of hair are
incapable of strong aliection; they
are attracted by the opposite sex, but
they are more given to having a se
ries of small interests than one strong
love. If this hair is found in combi
nation with the golden colored eyes,
it is indicative of coquetry in the na
ture; if with pale blue-gray eyes, we
have languor and caprice a senti
mental but inconstant person.
.Bright golden hair of a rich, deep
color and of a crisp and waving text
ure, growing thickly on the head and
somewhat low on the brow shows an
ardent, poetic, rnd artistic tempera
ment It is the signature of Apollo
the sun. Such people are gener
ally fond of music, painting oi poetry.
Both men and women having this
sort of hair are intuitive in their
judgments, they do not reason about
things, they feel it; they are a little
quick of temper, that is easily ruffled,
but they are quickly appeased; they
are gay, and interest themselves in
art, even if they are not artists them
selves. Persons with red hair are ardent
and vivacious, especially if they have
hazel eyes, in which case they have a
bright and quick intelligence. They
have a great deal of natural facility
for study and good memories. Bed
hair with blue eyes shows the same
warmth of character, but not so much
intelligence, and if with blue eyes
and red hair, the eyebrows and eye
lashes are white as is often the case
it is an indication of a weak and ca
pricious nature.
People with red-brown hair, whioh
is very thick and redder over the
ears and at the temples and
on the beard than on the
head, are courageous and hot
tempered. This kind of hair (unless
the other indications in the face are
widely different) shows activity and
energy in all things. It augments
the indications of force and power
given by other features, and in art
this sort of hair gives sense of color
in painters, force of language and el
oquence in poets and power in mu
sical composition.
Hair of that colorless fair color
which French writers call "blond
cendre," or ash-colored, denotes per
sons of an indolent and dreamy tem
perament It is the indication given
by the dominant influence of the
moon at birth. Persons with this
sort of hair, in combination with
large blue-gray eyes, with fair, long,
but straight eyelashes and very
slightly defined eyebrows of the same
blond color, and white, soft skins,
are capricious, languid,- imaginative,
and somewhat melancholic
Women having thisaort of color
ing of skin and iair'are romantic
and devoted in & quiet but not active
spirit; that is, they are more gener
ous in words than deeds, for they are
incapable of exertion; and still less
of perseverance. .
Persons f 4th soft, long hair of a
dark brown, eo dark as to be almost
black, yet not of that blue black
which is essentially melancholic, are
affectionate, gentle and loving. Their
first instincts are always good and
kind. They like society, and are
gracious in manner, and though they
are not quite as indolent as those
having the soft ash-colored hair in
dicative of the moon's influence
they are still lovers of repose and ele
gant comfort
People with soft brown hair are
very open to the impressions of beau
ty, and they abhor noise, discords and
quarrels of all sorts. Men with this
sort of hair, like those with pale
golden iair are somtwhat effeminate,
and easily moved to tears.
Large, "fleshy ears (especially those
which -have the lobes of the ears red)
show coarseness of nature and sensi
bility. If the ears stand forward so as to
show their entire form when the face
is seen from the fronty it denotes ra
pacity and cruelty.
Ears oloso to the head show refine
ment and susceptibility.
Long-shaped but small ears .indi
cate refinement; a very small ear, close
to the head, shows delicacy of per
ception, refinement, but also timidity,
The ears should be placed as not to
bo higher than the eyebrow, or lower
than the extreme tip of the nose; if
set in too sloping a direction they
show timidity; if too upright, animal
instincts, courage Dinouuuiig iu cru
elty, especially if they obtrude from
tho head.
A thin ear shows delicacy and po
etry of feeling; a thick ear tho re
verse. A wide space between the wing of
tho nose and the ear-hole shows
coarseness of naturo; too litttlo space
meanness and coldness of tempera
ment Ears of deep red color show-ani-
mol inofJnrtfa. TnrFvfliT nnlnrlncc anra
show timidity and want of warmth of
temperament
An ear to be perfect should be
rather small than not; in height it
should not be higher than the eye
brow and not lower than the nose; in
color -it should be a very delicate
pink, and a little, but a very little,
deeper in shade at the lobe3.
How to be Pretty.
A tablespoonful of sulphur taken
erery other morning for a week, then
omitted three mornings and taken
again, will clear tho complexion in a
couple of months, but will probably
make the black specks more numerous
for a week or two. A mixture of pow
ered brimstone or sulphur in diluted
glycerine, rubbed on at night, in con
nection with the other treatmentwill
soon cause them to disappear. "Vfash
off carefully in the morning with
soap and water in which there is a
little ammonia. After this, if v the
face seems oily, wash it at nicht with
spirits of camphor; reduced with'half
as much glycerine and a few drop? of
ammonia. In the morning bathcthe
face as before with a little ammonia
in it, and after wiping it carefully
sponge it over with camphojufand.
water, and m a short time the fairness
of your skin will delight yourself and
surprise your f riends.-Jr. Zangtry.

This is the way tho poetical editor
of the Ueppner limes sings of "beau
tiful snowr"
O, the snow, the dodgasted snow.
Filling the hearts of the people with woe;
Covering the bunch-grass, filling the
street;
Blinding the eyes of the people you meet;
Dancing, drifting, sweeping along
Confound the Enow! is tho theme of my

Freezing the end of my fair lady's nose,
Causing the chilblains to grow on her
toes.
Get away, stay away, yon strengthen our

Your Golden Wedding.
This is the fiftieth anniversary of
marriage. Most folks who celebrate
it have reached a good old age. "Well
preserved people have a right to en
joy a hearty old age. It is sad to see
old people the victims of debility and
impoverished blood. People who are
not too far gone can enrich their blood
conquer debility and enjoy vigorous
health by the use of Brown's Iron
Bitters. Dr. Myers, of Fairfield, La.,
saj-s, Brown's Iron Bitters is the best
iron preparation I have ever known
in my thirty years of praotice."

TO THE PEOPLE OF
ASTORIA ahd VICINITY
Owing to the unprecedented rush of business at our Store, we
find it simply impossible to write a proper advertisement enumerat
ing the various Novelties in the line of HOLIDAY GOODS we have
on hand, all of which are being rapidly disposed of and seleoted from.
The public evidently know where to get the BEST ARTICLES
for the LEAST MONEY. It is a well-known fact that we undersell
any establishment in Astoria; as our expenses are lighter than those
of any other store in town.
We adhere striotly to our ONE PRICE SYSTEM, all our goods
being marked in plain figures, and we will not ask you $10.00 for an
article and afterward sell it to you for One Dollar, (as is frequently
done elsewhere in Astoria.)
Bear in mind also, that we are the LEADING NEWS DEALERS of
Astoria.
