FEARED NO INQUIRY
Before examining their hands I
told Mrs. Slingsby and the others

for to prove her guilt or inno-

l can not truthfully say the
same of Teddy. because he was
exceedingly reluctant After re-
peated failures to induce him TO

!. his little body had more to do
with his refusal than fear OF
what his palms might disclose.
The photographs do not show
the resemblance of Teddy's to
Lieutenant Slingsby's hands as
clearly as the hands themselves,
because the fingers are fore
shorted in the prints But the
same high mounts of Mars are
present, the same family charac-
teristics of reserve and caution,
with the same love of home ana

At present his hand shows lack
of self-confidence and independ-
ence. He must be allowed to
think more for himself and not be
ruled too much by nurses and tu-
tors.
Material success, due to finan-
ciaI assistance through his fam
fly. is also shown by the Saturn
line rising from the life line.
SIGNS OF BRILLIANT FUTURE
All the signs point to brilliant
future for this little fellow. Ill

the ioined life and head lines.
Dffidence and reserve come under
this reading, as do the downward
lines from between the fingers.
Adaptability is not one of his
strong characteristics. and he
finds ii exceedingly difficult to
adjust himself to the ever chang
ing conditions that confront him
every day.
LONG LIFE PROMISED
Aside from a nervous condition
due entirely to the strain caused
by the present unwelcome notori-
ETY., and shown most conc1usively
by the weakened head line and
the futed or ridged nails, Lieu
tenant Slingsby shows every indi-
cation of living to a good old age.
Although the lieutenant loves
to spend money on people he cares
for, he is not extravagant. Gen.
erosity, however. is found in the
large mount of Venus, the turned
back thumb and the wide space
between the first fingers and the
thumb.
A marked difference will be
noted in the shape of the finger
tips on the two hands. The left
hand (the hand he was born With
shows little care for system, a
love Of beauty, and a rather lazy
disposition. These are inherent.
