Dip0rce EpHand Science of Hands
Explained BY Preachers in Sermons
Rev. James Gordon Describes
Different Character Types
Revealed by Palmistry.

There are seven kinds Of hands" said
Rev. James Gordon4yesterday at the First
Congregational Church, Tenth and Z
streets northwest. in his sermon on The
Science of Palmistry, or Character al
Revealed in the Hand
They are the square. the full. the horny
the sensitive, the artistic, the composite
and the long. The index to character is
the hand. Infancy, maidenhood, strength
weakness, toll. greed. affection. death
and royalty are all seen in the hand.
Think of the fiexibility of the hand.
The music master. artist, mechanic
actor. politician, soldier, and lover are
all seen In the hand formation. The mar
velous adaptability Of the hand is study
In itself. Ancients studied the hand as
suit of study along these lines. Ten
thousand lines in the hand stand for as
many characteristics in life.
Strong character or weak character Is
seen In the hand lines. History and
prophecy are just what you put into
them Design is seen in the hand.
Scientific Identification was frs'
brought to light by the Chinese in thumb
study. The most wonderful hand is that
OF the infant. Left-handed people are a
blessing in bringing humanity back to q
balanced life. The science of handshak-
ing Is advancing 1t speaks volumes for
cordialfty, dignity. aloofness, love anc
whole heartedness. The value of the hand
Is fncalculable. Authority is the result
OF the work of the hand. Sculpture
abounds irr emphasis of the moral quail
Ties OF the hand. The consecrated hand
is now doing unbounded good. The Great
Hand of history is the Pierced Hand OF
Christ

the touch OF the Hand That was Wound
