reported from any part of the State.
The five places from which scarlet fever
was reported in this manner were De-
troit, East Saginaw, Saginaw City, Mus
kegon and Pontiac. If this disease is
present at any other place in Michigan,
the Secretary of the State Board would
be glad to be informed.
Diphtheria is known to be present in
other places than the sixteen from which
it was reported on the weelly-report
plan. Pamphlet documents on the re-
striction of diphtheria are being sent
from the Office of the State Board of
Health to such places as fast as they are
reported. 1t frequently happens, how
ever, that diphtheria occurs in localities
that have not placed themselves in CON-
munication with the State Board as the
law requires, by reporting the name and
address of their health officer, and re-
porting outbreaks of diseases dangerous
to the public health, as required by the
State Board, under the law.
In order to make these weekly bull
letins as complete as possible, local
health authorities should make their
reports to the State Board promptly,
and regular observers are respectfully
requested to send in reports as soon as
possible after the close of each week.

MOmau;S hand.

The female thumb is said to be an i'm
portant index of the female character.
Women with large thumbs are held by
phrenologists, physiognomists, ETC., to
be more than ordinarily Intelligent
what are called sensible women-while
women with small thumbs are regarded
as romantic According to certain au-
thors, who profess to have been obser-
vers, woman's hand is more indicative
of woman's character than her face, as
the latter is to some extent under con-
troll temporary emotions, or of the will,
whereas the former is fact which exists
for any one who understands it to profit
by. Consequently few hints about
the reading of woman's hand may be
very useful to certain of our readers, es-
peciallv married men, or men contem-
plating matrimony. Women with square
hands and thumbs are said to make good
and gentle il .sewives. This sort of
women will mako any one happy who is
fortunate enough to win them. They
are not at all romantic, but they are
what is Internationally domestic.
Women with very large thumbs have
temper" of their own, and generally q

lover. Let him, the first time he seizes
hold of his lady-love's hand, examine
under some pretext or another, her
thumb; and if it be large, let him make
up his mind that as soon as he becomes
a married man he will have to be good
boy, or else there will be the very deuce
to pay. Again. if young man finds
that his lady love has large palm with
cone-shaped fingers and a small thumb,
let him thank his stars, for in that case
she is susceptible to tenderness, readily
flattered, easily talked into, or talked
out of anything. and can be readily
managed. But if she is a woman with q
square hand, well proportional and only
tolerably developed thumb, why, then,
she is either one of two distinct classes
of womencshe is either a practical
female who will stand no nonsense, or
she is designing female; she is a wo-
man who cannot be duped, or woman
who will dupe him.

Nor long ago Chief Justice Waite, In
a letter to friend, put forward the
opinion that there are more law schools
in this country than are necessary.
There is no doubt of the truth of this
assertion. Being more law schools than
are necessary, there is consequently a
surplus of lawyers. Every male child
who manifests disposition to argue and
wrangle with all with whom ne comes in
contact, and expands with years into the
powerful debater of college literary
society, is believed by his misguided
parents to possess qualifications which
peculiarly fit him for the legal profess
sion. The natural result of this policy
has been to flood the country with a
horde of blatant young men who secure
a precarious and not altogether credit
able subsistence from the petty litiga-
ton into which the members of certain
classes are continually being drawn. If
the lawyers of this country were reduced
in numbers one.half, and in self-impor-
lance -tenths, life ON the Western
continent would be fully as agreeable as
at present.
