WHAT MOLES SIGNIFY.
| Each One Has Its Own Particular
| Mole on the neck,
Money by the peck
Is rhyme with which most of us are
familiar, but very few trouble to dive
deeply into the mysteries Of mole
ology," or are aware that there is such
a science. Nevertheless it is a fact,
and one worth knowing, that every
mole has it's own peculiar significance,
and in bygone days, when sorcerers
and witches exercised their magic arts,
to the peril of their own lives, before
casting a spell on any one, they were
always careful to find out all particu-
lar concerning their moles, or
whether they had any or not, for some
of these apparently useless discolora-
lions were supposed to preserve a
person from drowning, Others from fire.
and so forth, and it was therefore nee
essary to know against what particu-
lar element they were proof before
practicing their witchcraft on them.
The following are some Of the in
terpretations placed upon moles by the
old magicians and may interest those
of our readers who happen to be
marked with any of these beauty
spots:
mole on the right side Of the fore
head, or on the right temple, signifies
sudden wealth and honors, and one on
the right eyebrow marriage with a
person of considerable fortune and an
amiable Dispositions; but mole on the
left of either of these places is a sign
that the person will be frequently near
the best Of luck, but by some unfortu-
nate chain of circumstances will fnva-
riably meet with disappointment be-
fore attaining it.
A mole on either cheek foretells that
the person will never rise above the
mediocre in fame or fortune, although
he will never fall into poverty, and
one that is placed on the outside cor
ner Of either eye denotes that the
bearer thereof will be in danger Of a
violent death.
A mole on the nose gives success in
business and oecially in undertak-
ings of a speculative or gambling ma
cation of an epicure; on the chin ii
denotes prosperity and on the throat
that the person will become rich by
marriage.
In spite of the old rhyme above
quoted, a mole on the neck does no,
bring money by the peck, but shows
that the person who carries this mark
through life will narrowly escape
4 death by drowning or suffocation, bu
will afterward rise to great influence
and wealth through an Inheritance.
A mole on the right breast denotes
exposure to accidents of all kinds, bu
no serious injury; on the left breast, E
happy but not rich marriage; on thu
chest, good health and medium for
tune through life; one just over the
heart shows Aman will be of an af
fectionate disposition, but tickle, font
of travel and adventure, not to b,

this indicates that she will be SINGER
in her attachments and have a larg
family.
