LXXIV. HOW TO READ LINES.

Sometimes the ines of the hand are
of one formation throughout. So, for
instance, the Heart line may be either
deep and clear, or thin, or shallow
and broad, or chained from beginning
to end. In this case the reading is
easy. For all you have to remember IS
merely what each of these formations
stands for.
But ordinarily this is not the manner
in which lines present themselves in the
hand. They may begin deep and clear.
then suddenly become shallow, then
grow islanded and finally wind lip thin
or entirely chained.
Such a line would manifestly not be
correctly designated as either chained
or thin or deep or shallow. 1t is a con-
glomeration of all these conditions. And
the result is that it must be read piece
meal, each formation receiving its own
Interpretation.
Now, if you will remember what has
been said about reading age from the
lines. you will be able to tell all about
the changes in a persons conditions of
health and sickness and moral vici5-
STUDIES from the beginning to the n
of his life by pursuing the method in
dicated here.
Let US assume that the Heart line
begins on the Mount of Jupiter and
runs deep and clear to the centre of
the Mount of Saturn. After that the
line is thin until it reaches a point be-
1eafh tho cno0a hofuraan t1a f-onpa
Of Saturn and Apollo. Then 1t becomes
shallow and broad until it reaches a
point beneath the centre of the finger
of Apollo, and finally it runs chained
to the end at the edge of the hand.
You would read such a Heart line as
follows:
The heart up to the eighteenth year is
strong, and the affections strong, ar
dent and constant.
AT Is there is a sudden change. The
nature becomes unsympathetic and
selfish, and illiberality and a cowardly
spirit begin to manifest themselves.
At So the erstwhile strong heart
takes the place of the one-time con-
slant affections. Sentimentality and a
tendency to be demonstrative are now
the order of the day.
This continues until the ifty-fourth
year when, as the claiming begins, the
heart action becomes very irregular
and the circulation poor n there is
a constant changing of the mind in
regard to the affections which are be-
slowed most lavishly one day, but
change into Indifference the next.
And this remains the condition of the
heart until the end.

NoR1H .LERsEY 40 coNTRoL CONVENTIONS.

OTIS HE Trenton Times is led to believe that if the plan of state

l1gious "intellectuals" he declared that
he lost his religion only because he
had too much of it while a young man.
Mr.. England explained that his father
was a clergyman, and that he was
brought up in a sectarian institution
and until the age of IS came in con-
tact with none but religious men and
women.l ITO much religion, or re-
ligion in extra large doses.' said Mr..
England, made me sick of it. and I
decided that when / become my own
master 1 would disregard religion al
together
Although it is true that not all men
become what George Allen England is,
even though they have too much re-
ligion' in their youth, it is certain that
an overdose makes one feel like adopt
ing a religion the observance of which
blue Sundays are ridiculous. We must
get away from such things if we want
to preserve our religions.
The ministers that have charge OF
such things ought to realize that this
is a workaday world and that the
only time the average person mas for
recreation is on Sunday, and the only
time the average workingman has to
enjoy a well-cooked meal is Sunday
noon. Now, If warm dinners are to be
barred from the Sunday dinner table,
and no travel or enjoyment of any
kind permitted, is it not self-evident
that hundreds of good Christians will
violate the Sabbath laws as laid down
by the o~verzealous clergyman?

other things. Why not have a safe

is only the narrow clergyman who
wants to take it from us.

NEWARK AS A SUMNER RESORT.

NY EWARK possesses advantages of climate over the average city
AN of the country in the summer. We have the mountains on
one side and the broad bay and New York harbor on the
other, and the greater part Of residential Newark is on elevated
ground. There are periods of hot days and nights when all the rest
of the country is suffering from torrid heat, but as a rule there is
comfort in our city in summer weather. There are times when
people at the seaside resorts are swelering in heat that no dis
comfort is felt by the Newark stayathOme, who has all the ad-
vantages of home and home living. In advertising Newark abroad
the advantages of our city as a summer resort should not be for
gotten The extensive mountain parks, with their great natural
beauties; the romantic mountain scenery and drives, the advantages
of trolley travel through beautiful sections. with access to the Hud-
son and its splendid scenery; the nearness of the seashore and its
resorts, and the opportunities for steamboat. excursions on the New
York bay and up the HudsOn-these advantages belong to Newark.
After the Passaic has been cleansed of it's sewage filth it will also
become one of the most attractive features of Newark life.

Says sTAR,s Enort. Save Lives.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
You are to be congratulated upon the
success of your efforts to abolish fire.
traps in the factories in this city. Now
that one large manufacturer has pat
your plans into practise, others will
follow quickly; not only to be up-to-
date, but because they will find tina
it pays to spend something in safe
guarding human life.
The Evening STARS advocacy of
fire drills in factories is a most worthy
crusade and should have the support
of every resident of Newark. There
have been a few instances of how eff
cient this practise is, ever since the
High street factory disaster. The writer
was a witness of the scene that fol-
lowed the discovery of a fire in the
Eighteenth Avenue School recently. In
less than two minutes the school was
emptied of more thar a thousand pupils
and teachers.
~ This should be ample recommends
ton of the merits of fire drills. If the
drill can be made so effective among
school children there is no reason why
it should not be as beneficial among
older people in factories, and it should
be more so. The problem of drilling
young women, which some say is I'M
possible. has been solved by a New
York manufacturer, who placed a CIR
in command. Her companions follow
her like sheep.
Keen ND YOUR crusade for fire drills
until they become a part of every fac
torv or building where they may be
needed. bflE,

QUALIFIED ADMISSION OF ARIZONA.

cJa HE stumbling block in the way of the admission of Arizona
as "a State has been that provision of her new Constitution
for the recall of judges. In passing the joint resolution
for the admission of Arizona and New Mexico the House of Repre-
sertatives last night made it conditional upon Arizona only that
an election be held on the recall question at the. first general cleo
ton for State officers. If the amendment to the Constitution is
defeated by the popular vote Arizona may come in as a State with
the recall feature in its Constitution. Since the adoption of the
Arizona Constitution the people of the territory have had oppor-
tnniv to learn the meaning and effect of such a system. When
the Constitution was voted on the true bearings of the recall sys-
ion for the Judiciary received little attention and were very little
understood. With better light on the subject the people are now
likely to vote the innovation out of the Constitution.

Fl NATIONS DEAD OF FIFTY YEARS.

IN CITING GOVERNOR ACKERMAN'S Memorial Day proclama-
IN ton is an extended one, because this year the memorial OBJ
seryance will have a peculiar significance. The'long roll of
the dead among the defenders of the Union began fifty years ago.
Then the people began to realize the necessity of the great fratri.
oidal war in which it was plunged. The bodies OF fathers, sons and
brothers killed on the battlefield were brought home for burial.
There also came cargoes of the wounded and sick to be nursed back
10 health or to die, and SO the making of soldiers graves began, and
VAS continued throughout the war. Not a few of those who wore
the blue were buried in nameless graves on batuefelds or died in
Confederate prisons. For forty-six years after the close of the war
he making of soldiers graves has continued, until now the great
majority of the men who wore the blue, as we'll as of the men who
wore the gray, have passed out of life. and their graves, too, dot the
national landscape.

NEW YoRK'S GREAT LIBRARY.

m S President Taft we'll said yesterday at the dedication of the
AZ magnificent New York library, "a library which affords
constant references and reading room facilities to LOO PEG
pie and which circulates through sixty branches its books ut the
rate of 100000 a year, accomplishes much more in the popular
dissemination of knowledge than any other library in the world
The New York library, in its splendid home, now enters upon a
career that has no limitations. 1t will develop, as the Metropolitan
Museum of Art is developing, into the greatest institution of its
kind in the world. To it will go the best out of the valuable pi-
sate libraries owned by American citizens. The munifcent spirit
that is constantly enriching the museum will as constantly enrich
the library. Probably it will receive the Morgan collection when
the fnancer and art collector is no more. And the superb edifce
of the library will ever be a principal ornament of New York and
one of the sights for visitors. 1t is a building without compare
among the public library buildings of the world. and worthy as a
creation of art to embelish any great city Of the world.

According to a graduate of the High
School, Charley Stafford, otherwise
known as Professor Stafford, of the
music department, is still lnourned by
those who were left at the school when
he ceased teaching singing. There was
no one who could quite approach him
for seeing the humorous side of a sub
ject and phrasing it in a distinctly I'M
usual manner.
Byron G. Mathews was one day on
Quoting a class in economies, while Mr..
Stafford was standing, near the desk
listening.

There was a moment of silence Then
Professor Stafford i|nterpolated sagely:
'Or are the feet of the trusts stand
