Don't quell the music OF well-earned praise and

But tell to the world what a worthy man he is

For compliments never raise thrill OF joy

With a formal nod and approving grunt and

But give him shake OF friendly hand and a

For appreciation oft fans the flame that keeps
ambition ablaze.
There are modest men upon every hand who

And carry their hearts in their open hands. their

Curing a Chicken Thief.

puppy and bargain was instantly
made. The pup Immediately be-
gan to establish his popularity
First his owners family was won
by his playful friendliness and then
the neighboring community grad
ually yielded to the wag of his tail
and the softness of his eyes. But
about the time of the advent of Mr.
B. S pup chickens began to die.
They were found laying about in
great numbers and finally self-elect-
ed detectives traced the feathers to
the kennel of BIS pup.
Mr.. B. was heart-broken, FIR &.

dispose of him. Yet he could not
afford to pay for all the chickens
in the thriving suburb. Finally d
solution of the difficulty presented

NEW PHASE OF PALMISTRY.
How the Hand Betrays the Presence of
Disease.

The expression of the face and the
appearance Of the hands are fairly re-
liable indiccs of the nature and prog
,ess Of certain diseases, according to
the Medical Record. For instance, a
skilled physician can in the majority
Of cases decide if a patient is a sufferer
from Bright's disease by the expires
sion Of his cOmtenance. and can also
by the color, contour and texture Of
the hand, by the shape and tint Of the
fingers and nails diagnose more than
one complaint.
For very many years clubbing Of
the finger ends has been held to be
one Of the most important signs Of
consumption, and the condition also
appears in several other diseases, Re
Gently DR.. Edward Blake. Of London.
has written a work on the study Of the
hand for indications of local and gen
eral disease, in which many instruc-
tive and peculiar points in connection
with the subject are well brought oUr.
In the introduction to the bCol,
DIR. Blake makes mention of the fact
that on those rare occasions when the
aid Of the European physician is
sought for a female member of any
Mohammcdan family Of distinction
the only part Of the patient which the
doctor is permitted to see is the hand,
which Is thrust for that purpose
through a small opening in curtain.
The subject of Or. Elake's paper,
then. is to answer to the best Of his
ability the question as to whether it
is possible that a fairly respectable
diagnosis might be based upon the
sight Of the hand alone. I'm the first
place. it is shown that the hand is
often dry in cancer and in paralytic
dementia. If the hand is, dry and
clawlike the possibility of diabetes en-
tiers the mind; ifhot, dry and emaciat-
ed, the hectic of advanced tuberculosis
is suggested. When one hand is per-
sistently hot and the other cold the
case may be one Of subclavian aneur-
ism, but it is much more likely to he
govt or else lead poisoning.
If the palm is not only hot but also
clammy, the causes may be excite
ment, recent exertion, or hyperidFo-
sis. A cold and dry hand may mean
starvation, anaemia, or one of the in
forms of vasomotcr ataxia.
The hand is cold, harsh and swollen
in myxoedema. If cold, clammy and
tremulous, then hysteria, dyspepsia
and certain depressing emotions of
the mind present Themselves to us.
