JUDGEMENT OF EYES.

" What do you consider the most j beautiful eye s?" was asked. " Wei], they're very scarce," said the ; old gentleman, letting his eyes wander ' over the half-dozen faces before him. " Not one here hes got the ideal eye. i It's a perfect violet or a velvet browD, as eoft and gentle as a dot's. Violet eye i are very rare. I don't mean deep-blue eyes, but genuine purplei eyes. Babies have them sometimes, : but I've seen only one or two women with them, and never a man. They ! denote too perfect a character for thut, —gentleness, intelligence, devotion, j and boundless faith. These virtues aren't often found in one person." "Brown eyes ? Yes they are plen- j tiful, and physically, perhaps, the most beautiful ey A s in the world. I think they come neit to violet eyes when they are ligH enough to read feeling in them. Dark brown ey«s are too deep. They seldom mirror the heart feelings, but are tine to look at." " Grey eyes are the most common in the world; so what in general do they characterise in the opinion of the eyeologist ? " asked a youth with a j pair of blue-grey orbs. " There are a hundred different kinds of grey eyes, you know," said the old gentleman. " Yours are one kind and mine another. People haven't become advanced enough to have more than four or five colours to apply to eyes, so any that are not blue, or black, or brown, or hreel, are called grey. You seldom see a real stupid person with grey eyes; but the genuine grey—thrt is alfcaye found among highly intellectual people. Steel-grey e)es with large pupils denote intense feeling; blue-grey eyes are generally among people with kindly hearts. You never find a real mean spirit behind a pair ol grey-blue eyes. 14 I've made a study of rial blue ejee which generally denote quickness" of thought, and generally lice p v ueical develo[ment, vhtn thy are ard bright. About nine-ter.tta of cur engineer#, railroad brakesmen, lighthouse kefpers, policemen, cadtts, and army and navy efficers, and many otberß selected for physical perfection, have blue eyes. Very few blue-eyed people are colour-blind or near-sighted.

Hazel eyes denote musical ability and grace of person. They are very pretty eyes, tco, and there are real green eyes. They are not so scarce as is generally supposed ; but I bave'nt made a close Btudy of them, or of yellow eyes either. I bear the latter are very fasionable, but I shouldn't imagine a yellow-eyed person would have a nice disposition." After a further discussion about the value of eyeology the scientist put on his gold-rimmed glasses over a pair of sharp eyes and wandered out of the square, pausing to ascertain the colour ot the optics of every person who pasted him.—Chicago Tribune,
