TELL YOUR OWN FORTUNE.
A Chapter on the Lines and Mounts OF
Your Hand.

A Chapter on the Lines and Mounts of
Your Hand.
Palmistry is fad at the summer re-
sorts this season. Everywhere the
soothsayer's tent Is the center of inter
est, and at some of the hotels a Quaint
little oriental booth, rugged out with
soft divan and cushions and draped
with parti-colored curtains, has been
arranged for the mystic. Not content
with secondhand divinations, the
dwellers at the summer hotels are TAX
ing lessons in palmlstry from prophet
| esses who are not averse to add thus
to their summer harvest. Following
are the simplest of the rules laid down
to guide the novice
There are eight elevations or devel-
| opments of the hand, called mounts
The Mount of Venus is the develop
| ment of the base of the thumb. II it is
| quite large, it Isl a sign of robust
health. 1t indicates affection. and it's
| unusual size violence of passion. The
Mount of Jupiter. at the base of the
| first finger, declares ambition. The
Mount of Saturn, at the base of the
|
| love of solitude. The Mount of Sun, is
| at the base of the third finger. and
| marks the love of the beautiful. At
| the base of the fourth finger is the
Mount of Mercury, indicating mer-
curial qualities, love of change, ex-
citement, wit. Below Mercury and
Jupiter, on opposite sides of the palm,
are the two Mounts Of Mars, the first
marking active courage and the second
| fortitude. The eighth mount, Luna,
| lies on the side of the hand directly
opposite the Mount of Venus, and in
dicates refinement and Imagination.
There are seven chiefly significant
| lines on the hand. The line of life,
that embraces the Mount of Venus;
the line of head, which crosses the
center of the hand: the line of heart,
running at the base of the finger par
I allel to that of the head: the girdle of
Venus, above the line of heart, and
generally encircling the Mounts of
| Saturn and the Sun; the line of health,
which runs from the Mount of Mer-
curry down the hand; the line of Sun,
which rises on Mars and ascends the
hand to Mount Of the Sun; and the
line of fate, running through the CEN
| ter of the hand, from the wrist to the
Mount of Saturn. A fork at the end
of any line, except that of life, gives
greater power to the line; but when a
| line ends in a tassel. it is a sign of
weakness and destruction, particularly
| so at the end of the line of life.
Branches rising from any line increase
it's power but descending branches en-
| feeble it. Breaks in any line denote
it's failure. A wavy formation weak

hand is Of great Importance. marking

To listen. He would find out how he stood

clear
She would say something. for quiet chat
Between two girls means, everybody
knows
As we'll as they can know about it, that
They win discuss the merits Of their
beaux.
He listened till his neck took on a crick
And every joint and muscle felt the strain;
But from their murmuring he could not pick
Distinctly any sentence that was plain,
Until at last-at which his heart stood
The one he loved spoke louder than be-

ANNUTTIES

Prof. G. S. Grimes Of
Evanston. III, now 81 years Of age
carried a policy Of 5000 for many
years and when he reached the ad-
vanced age OF 20 he despaired Of its
ever becoming a claim. so he compro-
missed with the company on the basis
of an annuity of $40 per year for the
rest Of his life. During the past "a
years he has received his annual pay
ments with regularity and great equan-
unity of mind and, having already
drawn $3.50. he has come to the con-
elusion that he has found the elixir of
life in an Annuity.
At age 70. $1,000 deposited in The
Mutual Life Insurance Co. of New
York will yield an annuity of s134.77
for life.
This great corporation is the most
wealthy moneyed institution in the
world and more than $1o,Gc0OOO in
claims has been paid in this, state

An eminent French economist, M.
Yves Guyot, has made the columns of
the Journal DIES Economistes very in
! structive study of the conditions af-
fecting the present situation and future
prospects of the United States Steel
corporation. He draws his materials
from the report of Mr.. Jeans, the secre-
tary Of the British Iron Trade associa-
ton; from data furnished in newspa-
pers, from the pamphlet of Mr.. Byron
w. Holt. and from other sources. Ac-
cepting Mr.. Hollis figures, M. Guyot
reaches the conclusion that the tariff
accounts for two-thirds Of the profits of
the United States Steel corporation SO
that without it the surplus earnings of
last year would have been only thirty
i've millions instead of one hundred and
eleven millions of dollars.

Herbert Spencer is polSing fun at the
vegetarians Of England, and has taken
them completely by surprise inasmuch
as vegetarian faddists thought they
could claim the philosopher as one Of
their own. Mr.. Spencer does not appar-
emily think highly Of the mental state
produced by a year of vegetable diet.
He said recently: II went over all that
had written during the year I prac-
ticed vegetarianism, and consigned 1t
all to the fire." Since then he has been
saying some facetious things about the
..deyotees of the truck garden as he
calls the vegetarians.

BILE freedom. General Viljoen thinks
that General French was lucky as well
as able; he says that Kitchener is
universally respected, not only be-

he always kept his word; he defends
Butler, and declares that part Of
