poLYDoRE QUESTION BOX,

Question: am sending you a few
prints of my hands and would ask you
to kindly read same. Also to send me-
the name Of a good book on palmistry.
INTERESTED.
Answer-In regard to a book on
palmistry, it would be invidious to rec
ommend one and ignore the others.
There are SO many that il you ask any
bookseller he will undoubtedly be able
to suggest half a dozen off-hand. II
you will get the least expensive one for
the sake of the illustrations and use
these concurrentIy with the perusai OF
the articles in this column of the Eve
ming STAR, l believe you will derive
more information on the subject than
If you studied almost any other trea-
tise on palmistry. For here You get in
a nutshell everything that is good and
trustworthy in the most reliable works
on palmistry, plus such experience as
a long and varied study Of human ma
ture has afforded me.
AS to you hands: Three things stand
out most .prominently--nay, four. And of
the fourth / shah speak first. for it is
the most agreeable of the quartet
of features: 1t is the great beauty OF
the contour of your hands and fingers.
These show you to be artistic. ambi-
tious, intuitive. tactful and possessing
a soul full of music.
BUT the linesi The triad of lines
those of the Heart, Head and Lifcl They
are what palmists designate as broad
and shallow. / almost hope palinistry
may be at fault. For the reading Ct
presume you want me to be honest
and not a iatterer) is, briefly, as fol-
lows:
/. Heart line: Physically not very
strong. 1t indicates one who is inclined
to be tickle, sentimental, very suscepti-
BILE and. though apt to fall violently in
love, mo- SO apt to persist in 1t long.
,. Head line: Shows mental lasiness,
which in your case Is so much the
more d%eplorable as. the long first pha-
langes of your fingers indicate that
you like to dwell In the world of mind.
The Head lines also show that, all
though other markings indicate that
you have decided opinions and are
very independent both in your ideas
and conduct, you are easily influenced
by others. 3
3. Life line: Shows that your sys
tenn needs a thorough overhauling. II
the line is actually as broad and shall
low as it looks in the prints. you must
be lacking in endurance, stamina. and
confidence.
This Is certainly a gloomy picture l
have drawn. Blu there is a bright lin
ing TO the dark cloud. For on the
Mount of Apollo there is a star which,
in addition TO the lines of brilliancy.

ly (f you only Will find a way TO over
come the handicaps just spoken of and
become e%rninently successful in life.
And in regard to what respect this
success will come, ! should say, judg-.
ing from the testimony of the little
finger Of the right hand, that you are
capable Of excelling eitler-as a writer,
speaker. musician, scientist, physician
or lawyer, or even in business, for all
three p~halanges of that finger are

PAINFUL FINGER NAILS CURED

Il have suffered from the same trou-
BILE (painful finger nails) at different
periods OF my life. The first time of
its occurrence. perhaps twenty-five
years ago, after trying home remedies
without getting helped, asked my
doctor to prescribe for me, but 1t was
not for q year or more that my nails
and fingers we're well. The infiamma-
tion and suppuration began at the
base OF the finger nail. Sometimes it
was so painful that l had to use a
poultice to induce suppuration. After
the pus was discharged the swelling
would go down until the next period
OF Inflammation. possibly not more
than week or two afterwards. These
frequent infiammations resulted in the
loss Of the nail. / had sometimes as
many &C three fingers in this state at
one time
Perhaps ten years later / began
again to suffer from the same trouble.
Again tried various remedies, among
them prescription from doctor of
friend OF mine, who had suffered
from like trouble. This seemed to
help somewhat for time, but it was
not o permanent cure; next tried
prescription from my own doctor, but
this was 80 irritating to the sensitive,
diseased skin that I could not use 1t.
] began to use Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. ! had used the Cuticura
Ointment previously on my children's
scalps with good effect. l did not use
the Soap exclusively, but rubbed the
Cuticura Ointment into the base of
the nail every night thoroughly, and
as often beside as l could. had not
used 1t but few weeks before my
nails were better, and In short time
they were apparently well There
was no more suppuration. nor infiam-
nation. the nails grew out clean
again. One box of Cuticura Ointment
was all that I used in effecting a
cure" (Signed) Mrs. ]. ]. Horton.
