CUSTOM OF SHAKING HANDS
Display Of Friendly Feeling Origin
ated When Men Were In Habit Of
Carrying Swords.

Did you ever ask yourself why you
shake hands with persons whom you
know? Here Is the reason:
In the old days. when every man
who had any pretensions to being a
gentleman carried a sword. 1t was the
custom for men when they met to
show that they had no intention of
rtreachery to offer each other their
weapon hands-that is, the hand that
would be used to draw the sword. and
to withhold the hand was usually the
signal for a fight
So fixed did this habit become that
long after men ceased to wear swords
they still offered the weapon hand to
a friend and declined to offer 1t to an
enemy. To this day when you refuse
ITO shake hands with person it signi-
sfles that you are at war. Among
savoges, who never carried swords,
the practice OF shaking hands is un-
known, and 1t affords them amusement
to see the white men do it.
