Meaning Of the Hands.

Profound study has led a NJ. d'Ar
pentigny TO the conclusion that the
hands represent three types. Those
who have Fingers with pointed tips
are possessed Of rapid insight into
things Gre extra sensitive and pious,
impulsive. To this class belong the
poets and artists. To the sssouare
tops belong scientific people sensible,
selfcontained characters, professional
men. The spade shaped tops-thick
tips. with little pads Of flesh on each
side of the nails : are materialists, com
mercial, practical, with a high appre
citation Of all that tends to bodily ease
and comfort. Each finger, no matter
what The kind of hands, has also one
joint that which is nearest the palm :
representing the body; another-th.
middle the mind; and the top, thu
soul. Each of these divisions CORES
ponds with one Of the types above
given.

WOMAN 5 Rf:.iTs. Rev. Dr. Chaplin,
in recent discourse ON the THE Crown
of Woman" said: "' l
1'he con dition OF obligation and the
condition of rights are inseparable. To
exercise these, women must have scope
and opportunity. Her obligations COM
pei her to demand her rights She has
a right to develop her nature to the ut
most of its power. Whatever power
denies this is tyrannical Woman has
the right of doing and being he best she
can. The question of woman suffrage
is above ridiculs. Throwing ridicule
at it was like firing pop-guns at a
thunder storm-it may he funny, but is
not forcible. EVENT. women were to
vote, God would still hold society to-
gether as firmly as he holds the heay
ems together. Women should be free
to do the work she can do She has
claim to the highest education. In
conclusion, the preacher counseled the
young women to be strong, true and
faithful hot mere queens of society, but
tisst in acts Of mercy and charity, and
first in readiness for all good work.

They then ooliept in focks of fifteen or

screams for a more genial southern
climate. They fly with great rapidity,
ut the estimated rate of one hundred
miles in the hour, which is about
double that Of the goose. They do
not, like the geese, follow the line of
the sea coast, but fly far inland, reach
ing their feeding grounds at night; ahd
the first signal of their arrival is given
the next morning by universal clamor
They seemed to be greeting each other
with their musical notes after their
completed journey. When settled on
their feeding grounds, they do not for
sake them uhless driven away hy very
severe weather.
In the chesapeaee the wild swans
collect in large flocks of hundreds,
feeding over extensive flats on the duck
grass, worms, insects, and shell fish.
They are found from the meath of the
Chesapeake to the rapes of Virginia;
but do not pass southwark of Hatteras
inlet We have ssef. few focks of

never met with them in the waters of
Long Island. They feed with the

South, in our barnyards, stalking
maJestically among the tanned wild
geese and other domestic fowl.
