SHAKING HANDs.-It is a very old fash
ioned way of indicating friendship. Jehu
said to Jehonadab +" Is thine heart right as
mine heart is with thine heart? If it be give
me thine hand" 1t is not merely an old
fashioned custom it is a strictly natural
one, and, as usual in such cases, we may
find physiological reason, if we will only
take the pains to search for it. The animals
cultivate friendship by the sense of touch IS
we'll as by the sense of SMELL hearing and
sight and for this purpose they employ the
most sensitive part Of the bodies. They rub
their noses together or lick one another with
their tongues. Now. the hand is a part of
the human body in which the sense of touch
is highly developed; and after the manner
of the animals we not only Ike to see and
hear our friend 1--WE do not usually smell him
though Isaac, when his eyes were dim. re-
sorted to this sense as a means Of recognition) i.
we also touch him, and promote the kindly
feelings by the contact and reciprocal pres
sure of the sensitive hands. Observe, too.
how the principle is illustrated by another
of our modes Of graeting-When we wish to
determine whether q substance be perfectly
smooth, and are not quite satisfied with the
information conveyed by the figures, we ap
ply it to the lips and rub it gently upon them.
We do so, because we know by experience
that the sense of touch is more actively devel-
oped in the lips than in the hands. Accor-
dIngly, when we wish to reciprocate the war
mer feelings we are not content with the con-
tact of the hands, and we bring the lips in
to service A shake of hands suftlces for
friendship, in undemonstrative England at
least but kick is token of a more ten
der affection.-Dr. Htmphrey
