The left hand lines show character

Those on the right hand are your
individuality lines. and also show
whether you have made better or
worse inherited qualities The hand
lines Will almost always vary more or
less on every hand. The vital line or
the line of life, is long and encircles
the mount of Venus, which gives long
life. free from illness; IL the line of
health crossed 1t prominently, 1t would
mean probable death at the age indi-
Gated by the crossing. Age is counted
on the line of life. Many little lines
crossing the life line denote many i'll
nesses or troubles. Other things are
denoted when separate lines rise or
fall from 1t. 1t Is a sign of very
strong constitution to be without the

there is great deal more to say

marks that portend serious results
mean that those results will very

of life as hitherto been practiced is
completely changed. And whether

hand-lines, therefore. need in no case
cause depression, or hopelessness, but,
on the contrary, an ambition to profit
by the warnings expressed, and thus
