Haudv, and What They Mean.

Hands are infinitely varied. Their shape,
tint, the nails, length, width, roundness,
are as different as individuals. There are
hands that seem intellectual in their sym
metry beautiful fexibility and grace OF
motion. Some are soft and voluptuous, and
Others precise, striking and brilliant. The
form OF the hand often expresses the capa-
bilities of the person to whom 1t belongs.
The strong palm, conical fingers, and small
thumb indicate in woman Incidence, fancy
and feeling. The square hands belong to the
intellectual and ambitious. and those who
love influence and rule. The small. soft,
almost fleshess hands, but rosy and with
knotted fingers arc brilliant and witty.
Fingers delicately squared at the ends love
domestic life. The small thumb and fin
gers, broadening at the ends, desire ac,iv.
ity and practical knowledge of the world.
There are smooth and knotted fingers to
the first belongs grace. to the second rea-
son. Conical hands with pointed fingers
obey inspiration, and worship the beautiful
In painting, poetry, romance and nature.
There are soft hands more capable Of ten
derness than of love, and delicate fingers
that are formed for sensitiveness and SYM
pathy of touch, and made to minister 70
pain and grief" hard hands that know not
tenderness, but are ignorant of love;
trough hands that the hear: teaches and
guides and softens.'

Cafe Life in Vienna.

HCorrespondence Of the Baltimore Americana
The manner in which the payments are
made in these large Vienna restaurants Is
very peculiar. In the one in which we dine
there are four collectors, each having Sec
tiOn of the hall. Parties set down to the
table and order whatever they may desire
from the walters, and when they are done
sigual for the collectors to come to them.
They then tell him what they have had,
and he sets each item down on a card with
the charge, hands it to the customer and re-
ceives the money. They keep NO account
IA to what is furnished to any one table. but
depend entirely on the honesty OF the Gus
TONER to make correct statement OF what ne
has consumed. An account. however, Is
kept in the kitchen of each dish that Is fur
nished to the tables under the charge OF
each of the four collectors, and they are re-
uuired to pay the cashier the full amount
furnished to their tables. If they have
been cheated it is their loss, but experience
has proven that there is no loss from dis
honesty. These collectors not only receive
no salary from the proprietor, but each OF
chem pays two forms per day lequal to one
dollar) for their positions. They receive
their pay from the visitors, it being a set
tied custom to give them few small com
on the settlement of the bill. Under the
system in vogue in France the waiter re-
ceives no pay, except that he receives from
the customers. Here the waiter handles
no money.

The July number Of Lippincotts Maga-
sine, which forms the opening issue OF a
new volume, contains the initial chapters
of charming narrative OF travel entitled
''The New Hyperion" protusely illustrated
by Gustave Dore. This record of journey
from Paris to the Rhine gives promise OF
much graphic and humorous writing. The
pictures Which embelish it, coming as they
do from Dore's pencil. can not fail to yield
q feast of art. From Philadelphia to Bal.
timore," by Robert Morris Copeland, is an
illustrated article descriptive OF the beauti-
full scenery along one Of our most import
ant routes of travel. with the American
Ambulance Corps in Paris" by Ralph
Keller, is an interesting paper. which no
American can read without experiencing
feeling Of just pride. "Our Home in
the Tyrol,' by Margaret Hewitt. is
continued in the present number
of the magazine. It well maintains the
interest and attraction which it exhibited
in the beginning. Will Wallace Harney's
contribution, entitled "Strange Sea Indus.
tries and Adventures" is full Of a novel
kind, and abounds in anecdotes as exciting
as they are truthful. Remarkable Pas.
sages in Shelley's Early History" by jan
nary Searle, is a paper that will be read
with interest on account of the light which
it sheds upon the youth of one Of the
geniuses of English poetry. In the depart.
ment of fctien the most prominent con-
tributions to this issue are the continuation
of Mr.. Blacks serial novel, "A Princess Of
Thule" and the conclusion of Mrs. Rebecca
Harding Davis story. "Berrytown.' The
poetry OF the number is notably good. par.
ticularly charming little legend from the
pen Of Mrs. Margaret j. Preston, entitled
'.Francesca's Worship" Our Monthly Cos
