Buccomancy Il again In fashion.
We know not the word, but our "a

Of revealing the past, present and fu
ture Of q person by al, inspection Of hi
or her mouth. n
William Rogers, who fourished about
$50, and who was prosperous den
tist, discovered the art and expressed hii
views thereon In q work, which may b
found at the Academy Of sciencea
"6how me q mans mouth, /" said Rogera
"and / will tell you what he has been,
what he IL, and what he will be-" He
added that this new system Of divina.
ton was based on the teaching of the
most celebrated physiognomists, and
principally upon the discovery of buc,
cal alphabet--that IL to say, upon the
Characteristic and telltale signs Of the
human mouth.
Certain scientists to-day are studying
this system OF his, for which reason
the following rules will prove Of inter-

which toward the eyes is stirred by a
slight tremor, is an almost infallible
sign Of heart tender, generous and In.
capable of any meanness.
The space between the nostril and the
extremity Of the mouth is very signifi-
cant. II it is covered with any shading
or undulation, It Is an infallible Sign
Of folly.
Chins tell many q story. A round
chin which has dimple signifies kind
ness; small chin, timidity; dat chin,
coldness and dryness of temperamentI
an angular chin, diplomacy, prudence,
frmness; pointed chin, craft and
fnese, and long, large, heavy chin,
hardness, pride and violence.
Teeth too, are revealers of character.
White teeth, which are we'll arranGed
and which show themselves as soon as
one opens the mouth, but neither
project themselves beyond the lips, nor
reveal themselves entirely, are always
token Of kindness, loyalty and anna.
bility. On the other hand, whenever .

can generally predict that the owner Il

jacques Rousseau says that mo WORTH
less woman ever has beautiful teeth, !"
and Spaniah proverb assures ~ that
- good tooth = better than . dia-

Small and short teeth are the token
Of extraordinary force and frequently
Of great penetration Of character.
When they are small and turn inward,
they denote an innocent love for Anesse,
but at the same time . hard and 70.
vengeful character. Long teeth ere .

and which seem to rest on the lower Hp>
