LxyIn. ENDING OF HEART LINE.

How wonderful is the diversity Of
appearance of the life maps as shown
by the lines and mounts of the palms,
Not one of all the myriads of millions
OF hands is exactly like any other. And
though there be a similarity between
hand and hand of, say, parent and
child or between twins, there havs
probably never been two hands alto
gether alike.
So true is this that some years ago
an offer of $500 was made if two hands
could be produced that would tally
with each other in every respect; and
yet nobody came forward to claim the
reward.
All of which is merely preliminary 10
the point ] desire to make, which, is
that although there seems so little diff
ference between one Heart line and
another that a person not versed in
palmistry would probably not be able
to see any difference at all, there is.
nevertheless, so great a diversity that
to set forth all the divergences would
fill up more volumes with literature on
the Heart Inc alone than would sur
flee to fill a library.
This would, of course, be rather in
convenient for our urpos which,
after all, is not so much to tabulate
every conceivable. variation of the
lines as to engender a mode of thinking
that shall enable you to make your
W combinations and draw your own
conclusions without having any need
to have recourse to the memory or a
book for every fresh deviation from
the normal appearance of any of the
lines.
Now, one of the most unusual depart
ures from the normal is when the
Heart line, with the natural course
Of which across the hand you have
already become familiar, after leaving
the Mount of Jupiter, takes a sharp
upward turn toward one or other of
the mounts, as, for instance, when
1t turns toward the Mount of Saturn.
This is rarely a good sign. Good,
/ say, because, after all, it does coca
s~ionally signify that a person has
turned his mind to sober, serious
thoughts. But ordinarily the sudden
turn toward the Mount of Saturn sig
nifes some unmitigated evil. For, not
only may it signify poor health, but
it is ais customarily an ~inexhaustible
source of moral obliquity. For If there
is nothing to neutralize the baneful
effect, the malice which is part of the
inherent characteristic of those of the
Saturnian type will be present, if there
Is the least bit of a suggestion of yell
low in the color of the nails or palm.
How are health and moral defects
distinguished in regard to such a Heart
line? Well, if the color is yellow and
the nails are brittle or ridged it is
more tina likely that there turks some
where in the system paralysis, rheu-
matism or heart disease. The former
two ~sicknesses are peculiar to the Sa-
turnian type, while the heart disease
may be inferred from the fact that
the heart line is SO short. This short
ness, a bad enough sign in itself, is
rendered doubly menacing by the other
signs of i'll health.
But now let us turn from the end
ing on the Mount of Saturn to the
case where the heart line terminates
on the Mount of Apollo.
All, here everything is so cheerful
The gloomy. morose neighbor, despite
his proximity, cannot cast the shadow
of his influence over the sunny son
of art and beauty; and in the heart
of this Apollonian is a song the live
long day. That is, unless there are
health defects indicated by the nails
or the color.
In the latter case the indication Of
heart disease is almost infallible, for
heart trouble is peculiarly IN affection
to which A~pollonians are ito the man
ner born"
If Mercury's Mount is the favored
one the line runs to, and there is no
indication of illness lin nails, color
or the like). you should interpret the
marking as a great fondness for what
ever pertains to the Mercurian char
acter. Such a person will probably
be very shrewd and will allow money
to influence him wen in the affairs
of his heart.
If the nails are ridged OF there is
much of the yellow color in he nails
or palm look out for bilious fevers or
indigestion, for these are the ailments
Characteristic of the Mercurian type.
