PLEASE SHOW YOUR HAM) T'rli TROUBLES IN THE WAY OF APPLY ING RULES IN PALMISTRY. a. Gat tho -I By Eittto I hare been twenty yean at the study C palmistry or chirognomy, and during that time have not been able to discover amy philosophic reason for believing that aBeUnesof the hand and its shape indi cate character. The want of a connect ing theory frequently causes me to lose all hope and belief in the investigation; but practice restores confidence. No one can look at even a few hands every asonth for years together without being driven to the conclusion that they really .do contain a guide to much that is to be found iu the nature of their owners. As an actual fact, however, I find that the leading lines of the hand are never eccen trically deformed, broken or deficient in - persons who have not some gaps or queer places in their characters, to .Batch. THE UXE OF SATURN. -If the lines are long, clear, red, gently carved, except the upright ones, few in number, and shown in a hand that has ".Augers with substantial tips and not too long roots, the best sort of nature may be looked for. In the case of persons of brilliant original talent and thought, the upright line from the base of the palm toward the fingers is never absent and is sometimes repeated twice or even thrice. It is called the "line of Saturn," aad springs from many different places. In musicians, actors and some others it usually starts from below the little finger. When it is joined at the base to the curved line round the thumb an in dependence of feeling out of proportion to the will strength or the pride of the rest of the character is to be expected. If the line called that of the head, which crosses the hand from above the thumb, ally turning down to the pad below the little finger, be entirely separate from the lino that surrounds the thumb, the whole character will be modified, whether it be a good or bad one, by this separation. As a rule that modification will tend to make the person seem more clever when thinking out of his own head, but less able, however sympathetic aad docile, to adopt the modes of getting at ideas by which his teachers.achieve their success. A short little finger often goes with a sweetness, a readiness to repent of evil aad of anger, and sometimes even a cheerful abnegation. Both kinds are consistent with a permanence of nega tive wishes, or, as it is usually called, obstinacy, as this is a quality capable of drawing strength from many sources. A large ended thumb is very good in a good man, and helps him to fight the battle of life. In a dull and selfish man it enables him to be extra oppressive at hoase, aad to make his opinions of much -more effect than their valao warrants. : A thumb whose end is large and its shaft poor, as though it were a door handle with a weak neck and could be twisted off the hand, is not an advantage. This -leads to many evils, and, though often found in a good man, gives a tendency to change the reasons for his good deeds or good opinions, even after he has been emphatic in choosing or defending them. Such change will usually be rather of the nature of a reversal than a drifting away. ' BLUNT nSOKRS AND THUMBS. Blunt ended thumbs seldom go with a natural tendency to politenessof address or a polished approach, except when, as in persons much before the world, this has been learned as a part. But in good types it goes with a gentleness and kind ness of manner bred by self knowledge which has taught the owner, to counter act his faults before they have time to hurt innocent people. It follows as a matter of course that among women those whose lingers and thumbs are pointed are generally the more super ficially charming. Those with large, bluat ended fingers are (if intellectual and educated) more valued and mure impressive, and even commanding. But command, like melancholy, has. more than one origin, viewed as an expression of constitutional tendency. Pointed fingered people have no excuse if they are not agreeable, for it costs them little to seem so. If large ended blunt fingered people show delicate dis cernment, 6elf abnegation in mental matters, indulgence to shallow weak Bess, patience with anger and folly, they are either entirely uninterested person ally in the occasions that bring such qualities before them, or have bought their good nature at a price, like the Ceatarion his freedom. When a student of the hand has read and applied for himself all the volumes that liave been written on the subject, and when he lias also discovered how to discount the bias of his different authors by guessing at their hands and account ing for their predilections, and when he has achieved such proficiency in looking at a hand and adding up all the conflict ing forces suggested by its balance of lines and segments that he can at.once tell how to classify the owner and what to expect of him, yet the greatest of all difficulties will remain to be surmounted. This hard lull to climb is nothing less than to describe a character in such terms that the owner of the same must confess his portrait and say, "Yes, it is tree; I am like that" Edwin Ellis in Universal Review. ARRIVAL OF THE BABY. JojoTFob Fames Is Exhibited . te Birth Telegram. The reporter found him leaning over the desk at the. telegraph office. There was nothing about him that would have attracted attention, except perhaps a strange troubled look in his eyes and the reckless way he. was destroying Mr. Gould's telegraph blanks. He would take up a sheet, dash off a line or two, hold it at arms length, slowly shake his head and then crumple the dispatch in his hand and try it all over again. On the sixth round a glad smile told that he had written the thing to his satisfaction, aad the next moment he approached the sight clerk and timidly asked (he charges to Kalamazoo. A wan smile crept over the erstwhile cahm and prosaic face of the clerk as the took his change and hastily slid the aide door. As the reporter approached the smile . UI thought so," said the clerk slowly as he glanced about the office to see that ao one was about. "You did?" amid the reporter, gentlv yetnmry. "Yes.

This is en tirely in a different vein. It is addressed to a gentleman in Toledo, perhaps an old chum: " 'Well! well! well! I told you so! 1 shall name him after youl He will rua for president in 1924, or my name is not "Tom Jack.' "Now, that's what I call. neat," said the clerk, as -.he laid aside the tender message destined soon to gladden some heart in far off Toledo. "One cannot help but admire Tom Jack's delicate sense of humor. Be spares himself the embarrassment of saying anything about the little angel's sex. He doesn't say whether Sally is doing well .or not; Tom Jack is too much elated to think of these things now. A year or so hence he may come in again, but his dispatch won't be so intrepid. Later still, when the family circle is extended so that the hired girl puts a couple of extra boards in the table for dinner every day well, Tom Jack, the prosaic family man, with expenses running higher and. higher year by year, won't be in such a tremendous hurry to turn loose the electricity for arrival No. 7. We can all wager the nimble dollar on that. "Shall I read the other two? Well, they're not quite so demonstrative. One reads: " 'Baby came to us this morning. Blue eyes like its mother. Mother mending rapidly. JlM.' "And the other reads: ' 'Our daughter joined us this morn ing at 10:20. Will you come to christen ing? Irene sends love to father. " 'Freddy J. "You can see by these, that there, is quite a literature ia the birth message. The main points that seem to agitate the fond young papa's breast are to tell the little story fully, yet suppress any direct statements.

It makes them squirm to think that their handwriting might not be plain, and that I might roar out the dis patch and ask them if it's all right as I read it. But I've too much considera tion for human nature to do that; and whenever I see a young fellow sidle into the office, cautiously grasp a pen and ex periment on half a dozen blanks, my ex perience tells me at once what's in the wind, and I am careful to let him depart in peace through the side door in the shortest possible time." And as the reporter was moving off the clerk picked up another blank and read it over softly to himself. There was no smile on his lips this time as he turned to the scribe and said slowly: "Here's another message, side by side with the little harbinger of gladness I read you a moment before. It's only a line, but there is nothing so eloquent as death. Listen: "John died when the tide went out to-night.' "Detroit Free Press. The Elevator te Karopoaw Hotels. The "lift" is not displayed ostentatious ly in the great German houses. R is be hind iron doors, to be detected only by inspection, and is moved by clanking chains. The deliberation of the proceed ing is its most distinguishing character istic. You stand in the great hall of the hotel where areconnoissancehas located the laboring "lift" and silently await de velopments. Everybody else has the greatest plenty of time. Presently from the unknown interior iron doors fly open, and a soldierly looking servant with brass buttons on his cap, preoccupied with his responsibilities, steps forth with an air of majesty. The doors clang as they swing, and the lift is there, rather primitive but elaborate in construction. Perhaps there may be five passengers ready to get aboard. When four have taken position the master of the elevator waves the fifth backward with an awful air of authority, and if the rejected one is an American urgent to go up at once, he is told peremptorily that there are places "only for four." The iron doors are banged, the engines heave and the massive machine moves. Safety is con sulted! Here is a masterly mechanism that might swing a pair of elephants of the size of Jumbo, but an attempt to lift at once more than four persons would be regarded as an affront to the empire. The thing's impossible! The French have the same elevating methods. There is usually an iron gate as well as an iron door to the ascenseur in France, and in some of the first class establishments they will risk taking up as many as five passengers at a time. The chains that are rigged for the security of this multi tude of irresponsible things are of links of wrought iron two inches in diameter. MuratHalstead. Bernhardt' Late Hi He was known in European theatrical circles as Daria, and, it is said, claimed to be a count As he was born in Greece, where there are no titles except official ones, and in the royal family, he had ne birthright to one.

It is even said that he had no right to hk high sounding name that he. assumed " Aristides'' f or his own satisfaction, and that hewaachris tened as only "Jacques." Damala was fond of gambling, and a swarm of creditors is believed to have hurried his marriage and to have fol lowed him unrelentingly until he left for Barcelona. He was once mixed up in a gambling case with Lambri Pasha, bat his friends say that he was never a black leg. At the time of his marriage with Bernhardt nobody seemed to know whether his first wife was dead or act staring the time he played with Bern hardt he did all he could, it is said, to excite her jealousy. When she was on the Etc se and he was in the wings he used to flirt abossinably with Mile. Lisaa Xante. This was in Italy, where Bern hardt had frequent faintingfits on the stage.

Washington Critic The town of OrisnJrr, on tbaEIster, has been for many centuries the center of pearl fishing in Saxony. In no other parts of Saxony nor in aU Germany were the banks so rich as here. In early days every one had a right to gather muscles; in 1CH the sovereign assumed porscsslon of the pearl fisheries. Prince Electoral Johann George appoint ed in that year Moritx Schmirler as elec toral pearl fisher at a salary of thirty florins ($12) a year. An ordinance of 1701 administered severe punishments for pearl thieving. The 8chmirler family were always connected with pearl fishing. Moritz's parents are known to have occupied themselves with it Their celebrity for kill and knowledge in this branch was so great that in 1740 one of them was summoned to Denmark in order to in vestigate pearl fisheries in that country. Not long ago three Oelsnitz citizens, descendants of Moritz Schmirler, were salaried as sworn royal pearl fishers: Salary, 140 thalers ($105), with wood and produce, yearly. Therefore they had to deliver to the government all the pearls found. The Schmirlers fill the same po sition to the present day. When pearls were higher in price the largest Elster pearls were valued at 180 nutria ($45) each. At present the pearl production from the Elster is not so great in importance. Numerous factories on the Elster shores seem to have a damag ing influence, their waste water mixing with the river. Jewelers Weekly. Wlaa FatlMr. An absent minded city man, used to paying five cent fares on the street cars, went on a short railroad journey. He took out five cents for his fare, instead of his dollar ticket, and sat looking out of the window, absorbed in thought, when the conductor came along, calling. "Tickets, pfesser Without turning his head, the passen ger proffered his five cent piece. "Ticket, suf said the conductor, sharply. The passenger gazed at him blankly for an instant, then, recognizing his blunder, he muttered, "Ah, absent mind ed again!" and politely began fumbling his hat band for the receipt check which the conductor .held ready to give him in return for the ticket, still untouched in his pocket.' But this man was not nearly so absent minded as the Bowtonhui who met his own son down town, took off his hat in response to the young man's greeting, passed on in abstraction, and said at his dinner table that night: "A young fellow down on Milk street Isaghed at me today when I answered Us bow, and for the life of me I can't tUak who it ooald have been, though his face did asssa familiar."

Custer, Lawrence Barrett and Stuart Eobeon went over to Brooklyn years ago to hear Mr. Beecher preach. After the sermon the three went around to the house of a friend where Mr. Beecher was to come immediately after church. They were seated in the parlor chatting as the great preacher came in. The names had been given to him in the halL As soon as he reached the thres hold of the parlor door he said, "Mr. Robsonl" The actor went over and ex tended his hand. "I am delighted to see you, delighted to see you. But you are a much younger looking man than I expected to find." "Oh, L am 45 years at least Mr. Beech er," replied Robson. "I shouldn't think it, sir; I shouldn't think it You are a very young man to bo secretary of the navy." "I am not Mr. Robson, the secretary of the navy, but Mr. Robson, the actor." "Oh, it makes no difference," said Mr. Beecher, "I am glad to see you notwith standing my mistake." But he lost no time in turning from him to pay court to Gen. Custer. As be had made a mistake on the political end he made up for it by paying court to the military hero until the discussion became general. New York Star. Defect la Edacatloaal System. Perhaps the most serious defect of the system of liberal education now preva lent in the United States is its lack of a truly progressive character. It is full of fits and starts. It is too disjointed and fragmentary. This is partly because there are no settled principles of pro cedure, fixing the order and amounts of the studies; and partly because there is no power which can secure teachers that know precisely what they are expected, fitted and permitted to teach. The con sequence is that the different years of school life too much resemble the differ ent successive sessions of our legisla tures. Milton somewhere describes the process of legislation as "hatching a lie with the heat of jurisdiction." Fortun ately, the process also consists in killing the brood of lies already hatched by pre vious legislation. Now the process of education in this country k by no means so bad in this regard as the process of legislation; but in certain respects the former too much resembles the latter. Professor George Trumbull Ladd, of Yale college, in Scribner. Ha Dldnt Proaonnee It That Way. An old fellow from the country, who has plenty of money invested, some of it in an uptown hotel of the family sort, was approached on the first day of open ing it by a natty young man with a de bonair smile.

"Just me and Mamie I mean my wife. We we haven't been, married long. She sent me around to see if you had any suites. "Well, you go home and tell her te come right along. We've got plenty of rooms, and when you and she are in them they'll be too sweet for anything. If we havent got rooms in sweets well have sweets in rooms. Come again, young feller." New York News. LEND A HELPING HAND. ft Men and women are coming more and more to recognise that they are not living solely for themselves. Selfishness is bad; sympathy and a desire to help others are good. Never before was there so much charity shown to the sick, the needy , the friendless. And yes, charity does not end with the bestowal of food, clothing and shelter; it has only done a part of its work. The world is full of neglected children, of discouraged men, of women who are heavy laden with care and sor row, wad others whose naturally bright atinds are starved and dwarfed. Ma terial charity might help some of them, but their greatest needs lie often in the direction of sympathy, care, mteQectnal stimulas and aids to a higher Ufa.

There may be a neglected girl or boy in the neighbor hood who is sadly in need of correct moral training; some good woman ought to get tbat child under her influence. There may be a man whom sickness and reverses have broken down; some one should seek him out and put him on his feet again, not by a gratuitous gift, but by helping him to employment or restor ing his confidence in himself. There may be a woman ah, there are legions of women, who bravely struggle on under poverty, sickness and sorrow, who need sympathy and encourageasent and away to earn something with which to improve the condition of their families. Who will help them? They are all around you you will not need to look far. Will you let them do your plain sewing, or bako your bread or do your weekly clean ingsomething for which you can pay them? Or, if their minds are starving, will you give them some of your books and papers, with the injunction to pass them on when they have done with them? We know personally of a poor family who owned not more tlian two or three books. An agent came around and of fered the mother, at a low price, a small work on civil government which she earnestly desired to possess for the sake of instructing her growing boysr She had no money, but, much against the. wishes of the father, who did not think such things were necessary, she bartered some domestic product for the coveted volume. As she sat down and turned its pages lovingly, and found there just the information of which she felt herself so urgently in need, in order to be an intel ligent instructor for her children, her emotions overcame her and she wept long, influenced by the privation she had undergone and the present joy of possess ing the coveted treasure. And tliat one book proved a very great help in the rearing of her sons and daughters to an intelligent manhood and womanhood. This instance is only a sin gle one in a thousand. There are others who experience a thirst for wider knowl edge, a soul hunger that is pitiful, and which many, even though poor in this world's goods, could easily relieve, if they would. This is a phase of charity in which people who have not money to give can help. There are many highly educated ladies who could not bestow alms, but who might gather together a class of women hungry for intellectual thing i, and feed them from their rich store acquired by education and travel, or who could visit them and talk with them singly while a their work. At lanta Constitution. rtb Heart. In diseases of the heart which persist for a long time and finally end, as a very large proportion of them do, in slow de cline and a lingering death, dropsy al ways sets. in. In the late stages it is a most intractable symptom, and adds greatly to the suffering experienced. In the treatment, physicians have been wont to depend largely upon a diet of milk, which, in cases where it is well borne and can be persisted in, always acts well. But there are many patients who, for various reasons, cannot be kept on a milk diet for any length of time. To some it becomes abhorrent after a while, and others really cannot digest it prop erly, as simple food as it is. And besides that, a milk diet is really unsnited to no small proportion of patients affected with cardiac diseases. We have reference to those who cannot be kept quiet, bat in sist upon being up and about, often in the open air, if not engaged in light duties. Professor German See, of Paris, has long been engaged in study to learn what elements in milk render it each aa admirable agent to stimnlste the kid neys, increase the flow therefrom and hence proye of such great sstike ia dropsies. As a result of his mvsstiga tion he is convinced that the one im portant element is sugar of milk. Actiag upon that theory he selected twenty-five patients with heart disease, In all Of which there was more or leas dropsy, roeach he gave 100 grammes of the sugar of milk, a day, dissolved hm two suarts of water. In all these esses a marked effect upon the kidneys was felt' within from twenty-four to forty-five hours, and the dropsies dunmished. rap idly, and almost all such swellings dis appeared altogether after a series of treatments lasting from six to eight lays. This discovery is likely to prove one of the most important which has been made in the medical world for years. Boston Herald.
