authorities they have been the founda-
tion of even the Greek schools of learn
ing. When we consider that palmlstry
is the offspring of such race, we
should, for this reason alone, treat 1t
with respect The practice. in short is
one of the most ancient in the world,
and in the northwest provinces of India
has been followed from time immem-
orial by the JOSH caste. The Brahmins
in one of the old cave temples of Hin
dostan jealously guard a unique book
made of human skin, which contains
hundreds of illustrations showing how
predictions made by palmists have been
fulfilled.
Not more than twenty years ago
almost every physician of note cried out
that hypnotism was impossible. To-
day the same profession embraces it
and studies the very laws whose ex-
istence it once denied. 1t is the same
with chiromancy For years they
scoffed at the idea, to-day they admit
that diseases are indicated in a marvel
Gus manner by the hand, and at present
the study of the shape of the nails is a
branch calling forth the greatest atten-
ton from the medical men both in Lon
don and Paris. If the medical profess
sion could only forget their old-time

~ ALMISTRY has now come to be
regarded as an exact science,
and its exponents have rightly
taken their place in the ranks
of the professions, along with
the doctors and lawyers and preachers
All the old atmosphere of doubt and
quackery which formerly surrounded
cheiromancy has been cleared away by
able and skilled investigators, such as
Count ST. Germain and Cheiro; their
disciples can read your life and char
acter from the lines of your hand with
even more certainty than a medical
man can diagnose disease from your
symptoms
We palmists hold our clients secrets
as sacred as the priest does those of the
confessional. Otherwise, how could we
practice at all? You see, once a person
shows his hand to me he lays bare the
secrets of his whole life. I tell with
mathematical certainty all that he has
done in the past and predict with al
most equal sureness the future which
fate has in store for him"
Palmistry is no new thing. All
through the ages great minds have
closely studied the science. Pythagor-
as. Plato, Aristotle, Homer, dozen
other philosophers and teachers were
among the vanguards Of inquirers.

And reap his old reward
The blame of those ye better,
The hate of those ye guard
The cry of hosts ye humor
(Ah, slowlyD toward the light

Ourloved Egyptian night?"
Take up the White Mans burden
Ye dare .stoop to less.
Nor call too loud on Freedom
To cloak your WEAKNESS.

BY all We leave or do,
The silent, sullen peoples

I TIHE WHITE MANS BURDEN
By RUDYARD k1pLING.

:, aside From Being by the author
esting as Rudyard Kpling's First Express
Called Upon to Deal With by Virtue Of. Her
Take up the White Mans burden
Send forth the best We breed
Go, bind your sons to exile
To serve your captives' need;
To wait, in heavy harness,
On futtered folk and wild
Your new-caught sullen peoples,
Half devil and half child.
Take up the White Mans burden
In patience to abide,
To veil the threat of terror
And check the show of pride;
By open speech and simple,
An hundred times made plain;
To seek another's profit
And work another'S gain.
Take tip the White Mans burden
The savage ways of peace
Fill full the mouth Of Famine,
And bid the sickness cease;
And when your goal is nearest
(The end for others sought)
Watch sloth and heather folly
Bring all your hope to hought.
Take tip the White Mans burden
No iron rule of kings,
But toll of serf and sweeper
The tale of common things.
The ports ye shall not enter,
The road We shall not tread,
Go, make them with your living
And mark them with your.dead.:
