HUSBANDS AND WIVES.
CHOICE BY THE HAIR
“One hair of a Avoman can draAv more than a hundred pair of oxen.” —Howelk j If a girl Avishes to select a husband ! she should examine his hair very eloseI ty before accepting him, because it is a fine indication of what liis disposition is. Men with fine, light hair are smart, conceited; and if they do not marry until late in life are apt to grow cross and selfish. Men with fine, broAvn hair, light or dark, make the best husbands. They are quick, thoughtful, and less apt to be selfish than their very light or very dark-haired brothers. Those aa'lioso hair turns grey prematurely are nearly always good fellows. They are a little neivous, but are brainy sympathetic, and very honorable. The hair turns Avliite from being over-scru-pulous in money matters and friendships oftener than it dees for grieving over one’s shortcomings. Nearly all red-haired people are smart. Avhether the hair is coarse or fine, but Avhen you do run across one that isn’t, lie is the stupidest person under the sun. The AA-omen Avith pale blonde hair, or the colorless, ashy kind, are impulsive, loving, fickle. They are not to be depended on, but are usually good company while they like you. On the contrary, those Avith dark broAvn hair are very loyal. They are full of sentiment, .and are easily affected. _ They ; enjoy keenly, and suffer in proportion. Women Avith fine, black hair are high strung, and those with coarse, black hair, if they are smart,, are nearly always mean. -. All Ai-omen with dark hair are more tempestuous ■' than those with lighthair. The dark eyes and complexions that go Avith the different shades of dark brown hair denote strong feeling. Thep are also more faithful than lighthaired , Avomen. Men AA'ho are bald are not desirable as husbands unless they have money.
