THE BRYAN HAND.
L SUCCESS
A IRA

from the mount OF jupiter InIs
proves, from the earliest his life ha:
been full of ambition. This line il
long, clearly defined, but interfered
with by the lines of fate and the line OF
| health, which, where they meet and
join together as they do, form a sort OF
island, which denote, that together
with some fine lines in the hand and
the star on the center of the mount of
Saturn, some terrible calamity.
The star gives distinction, but one TO
be dreaded. 1t means that the subject
will have some terrible fatality. a man
in every way a child of fate, playthiug
of destiny: man cast for some terri b. e
parts in the drama Of life-he may be a
Judas or he may be Savior, but all
his work and life and career viii have
some dramatic and great climax, some
unrivaled brilliancy, some position
respondent with the ajesty of death
a king for moment, but crowned with
doom.
Speaking of the star in his hands
showing such great things, there is but
little question that it means just what
/ have said. If 1t was in weak hand
it would not be of near so M uch i'm
portauce as 1t is n his, because be is
extremely strong and powerful: the
palm is moderately full, firm and yet
elastic. The mount of Venus n axes it
still stronger in it tirmness. The long,
straight lines running across the mount
from the thumb to the life line show
sincerity of purpose at home and to
his people-a man who can be trust
ed.
The marriage line shows be will be
married but once, and there will be
happiness in his family. He will be
generous to those whom he likes and
no man will be able to say he ever be-
trayed a trust, but fate throws obsta-
cles in his way in such a manner that
he will always be hindered in his do
ings. and if he does accomplish his OBJ
ject his success will be but small bene-
fiji to himself, because he will not enjoy
the fruit of is labors. If he should
become president of the United States,
which is most unlikely, he will be as
sassinated. 1t shows that when he gets
into power there will be trouble.
The health line shows his health
will cause him trouble in connect ton
with indigestion. The health line in
terferes about 50-54 years of age, if not
before. This may be overcome, but
it is doubtful. His trouble will be
active heart disease. as the nails are
short, or else wounds near the heart by
enemies.
There will be more heard from w. j.
Bryan yet, and it will shake the United
States when he gets INTO power
The health line shows that there is
some weakness at work undermining
his constitution. According to palm
istry it is either active heart disease or
trouble with his heart in some form
which will make itself felt sooner than
he expects. The formation of his nails
help to carry out this theory. There is
great danger in his hand to himself
when in power. His enemies will fear
him and they will leave no stone I'M
turned if they can only Illustrate his
plans. That is where the star plays an
part in his hand-it shows if
success is gained by him he will be hurt
or wounded about the heart by a weap-
on. 1 believe by knife or dagger.
Summing up this mans character
and my view according to palmlstry,
his life has been what would be termed
that of self-made man. He has been
amb tious in certain direction. and
from the formation of the hand it gives
law first, on account of its practical
judgment. 1t shows also that what he
does will be done by leaps and bounds.
He will be at his best during crisis and
d stur bance, and will make himself
felt during those times. If successful
it will be to his loss but the Country's
gain. He has wonderful fatalistic life.
