Some of the most notorious erlinInals who, it Would,hardly be thought, paid the slightest ailtention to omens, good or bad, have the greatest faith in su- perstitions of all kinds. ' The burglar is a believer in the sig- nificance of dreams and has bee* ,known to relinquish a big burgling feat 'if a dream the eight before has warned hint that he will be In danger should he disregard the warning. If he saw a rainbow he would consider it to por- tend that, however reckless he may be, he is not likely to fall into the hands of the police ' for a space .of three months. Burglars have been known to carry a donkey's shoe iu their pocket before turning out, believing that this' will protect them from danger, while others pin their faith' to a piece of coal, which they wi I carry in their pockets el throughout th1r career and afterward bequeath it to confederiate. . The pickpocket is equally supersti- tious. It is sad lie will not rob a per son who squInt8, this being accounted a sign of dis ster, and if it happens that the purse he robs contains foreign coins it is believed to augur that be will travel a 11ood deal in the immedi- ate future, whether in the company of a couple of officers or not there is noth- ing to show. 1 Weddings and funerals are pregnant with meaning for the professimial thief. To pick a pocket at a funeral' would be to court immediate disaster, whereas if a purse stolen at a wedding contains gold it portends the best of luck for the thief durin the ensuing six months. Some pielzpOckets have a favorite Pair of bootthat they wear as long as they can keep them on their feet, and It they are not arrested while they are wearing tbethey cut the boots up into little square pieces and. give them away as "luck r tokens" to their pals. TOE EYES" Black or very dark eyes denote a ca- pacity for extreme. ardor in love., Greenish .tins- in blue or hazel eyes are the signs of wisdom;and courage. Steel colored eyes Usually denote a cold nature, also deceit and treachery. Russet broveLn eyes, untinged by yelt low, mean anaffectionate and gentle disposition. . Dark blue e es. while indicating af- fection and pu ity, do not represent in- tellectuality. . Variable gr y eyes are highly intel- lectual and in icative of an. impulsive and impressio able femperitment Clear light liue eyes, espetially if ae- Compaeled by steadfastness of expres- sion, denote eheerfulnemi, amiability and constancyf Tawny eyes' denote fickleness. Eye, of no particUlar color, only feeble shades of gra and blue, go with lym- phatic dispo alone, characterized by coldness, twill hness and listlessness. • Row it Spreads. ,The first package of 'Hem -Reid (the ill- fittlible Pile eure) Cut wen per out went tO a small town ie 81 ate of Nebraska.

A dish of krefili water is a conatant necessity where there IS a dog or a cat, even though they never appear to touch It. Offering them water now and then doesn't answer at all. Those who suppose scat requires only meat and milk should offer it a bit of nicely cooked vegetable, especially as- paragus, corn, green beans or potato,' It is crimiaal to keep caged pets un- less one is sure to remember their needs, not when one "thinks of it," but constantly'. . The man who has DO tender feelings for his horse should remember • that this faithful servant will last longer and serve better while he does last if he receive consistent treatment. Read With Ramie.
