We see the end at last.

OF each brave man who passed.
We've watched the grim events that tA1ked
And feared what came behind.
And each has paid. or cheered, or talked,
According 20 his kind
Through pages, marching day and night.

And now zach thankful chap
Nay lay aside his lexicon
And put away the map.

D. o. McCray's Palm

Mr.. McCray's palm is the most rest
less palm in palmistry. We are now
speaking distinctly in a mental sense.
It is the palm that belongs to that Sc
Iect army of iconoclasts who destroy
the old and create the new. It cares
nothing whatever for commercial ques-
lions, for the amaSsing of monies, and
looks upon gold as simply the most con-
venient means to an end. 1t would
make a very poor dry goods clerk, a
worse pettifOgger and a most abOmina-
bic manual labOrer. I'm the still and
mental realm the palm covers terri
tory like a ughtning's flash; is given to
detail, naturally penetrates and probes,
struggles to arrive at facts and can at
terward marshal them in formidable
array with precision, accuracy and skill
We obtain this knowledge from these
fingers, which are long, restless and full
OF inQuisitiveness.
The peculiar separation between the
''Mercurial and the sun" fingers and
the peculiar manner in which the first
phalange of the finger of Mercury
leans toward the Sun" suggests great
versatility, originality, independently
and Difference towards others; good
suggestions, and an almost exhaustless
abundance of ideas.
The finger of Saturn is the most
pronounced finger among the digits. It
is broad, we'll tapered and finely streak
ed. This suggests three things: the
breadth gives the palm natural love of
hOme-an ideal love of hOme-tOgether
with spontaneous hospitality. The tap
