Mustache tells a man’s character, says Stray Stories
The note suggests that women can read a man’s traits by his mustache. Ragged or flying styles show poor self control, straight and orderly indicates restraint, upward curls imply geniality and vanity, downward curls hint at a sedate mood. Good-natured men tend to lift the mustache, while cross or morose men pull it downward.
Broncho Has Fun Abroad
An English paper recounts a Mexican broncho remount that escaped at Colchester and roamed east Essex for nearly a month. Nicknamed De Wet by locals, the horse outpaced troops, leapt roofs, swam a river, and evaded capture despite a small army, a cowboy, and a lady rider. Now in an equine hospital under guard, authorities hope to break him.
