Everyday Psychology
BIZ DR.. JESSE w. SPROwLs.
Against Graphology,

Graphology is the science OF the
meaning of handwriting. 1t enjoys a
permanent legal standing all over the
world, especially in the traffic of nego-
table papers. Legal identity, this Is
called. If you have any doubts as to
the reasonableness of legal identity, try
to disguise 50-word letter SO that one
familiar with your undisguised writing
may not be able to identify you as the
writer.
There are many who unquestionably
assume a larger role for the meaning OF
handwriting. 1t is often affirmed that
theoretically inscribed with the hand
writing On the other hand, this claim
has just as often been denied.
You have your own opinions about
this question. I recite below the six
most commonly-raiSed objections to
graphology as applied TO character:
First Objectionable depends
entirely upon the muscular makeup OF
the hand. Muscles have no connection
whatever with character. Therefore,
graphology contributes nothing to the
science of character.
Second obiection-The writing ma
terials and instruments, more than any
thing else, determine your handwriting
at any given time.
Third Handwriting Is a
product of teaching. Pupils all with
different temperaments will learn to
write substantially the same hand un-
der the tutelage of the same writing
master.
Fourth objection-A persons hand
| writing changes from time to time. His
character does not change. Therefore,
the two have no connection.
Fifth Observation-Disclosures of the same
profession frequently write with SIM
liar hand. although they differ widely
| in character and in temperament.
Sixth objection-A person can easily
disguise his handwriting but can never
| disguise his character. Therefore, 1t
is Impossible to tell his character from
| his handwriting.

How to Serve Buffet Supper
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

baked ham and bologna, all on one
platter, garnished with parsley; potato
croquettes in another serving dish. with
salad of dressed lettuce in bowl. A
potato salad may combine both the
last two dishes.
There should be cranberry jelly,
pickles, olives and sailed nuts, hot but
tered rolls and coffee.
The guests, in returning for the sec
ond course, which Is now ready on a
side table, take the plates from the
first course and leave them in the din
ing room. The second course may be
ice cream and fancy cakes, Spanish
cream and cakes, or French pastry,
plum pdding with foamy sauce. or any
preferred dessert, hot or cold, that the
hostess would serve at formal dinner.
The coffee can be served with the
meal, as it is a supper, or guests can
have black coffee with their dessert if
they prefer. More courses can be pre-
pared which may be simpler in them
selves or more elaborate, as the hostess
elects, but a two-courSe supper Is adj
viSed, as 1t is one in which the self
service is accomplished without any
confusion, such as might occur when
constant trips back and forth between
the living room and dining room are
necessary.

Today in
Washington History
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

January 10, 1856.--The, act of the
Democratic members of the House in
setting at naught, this morning, their
previous caucus determination not to
adjourn until Speaker should have
been elected was doubtless brought
about by the knowledge that some OF
those who are voting for Representative
Richardson we're disposed to retire from
the hall, having opposed the resolution
for protracted session in caucus and
being too feeble in health to permit
them to undergo longer the terrible
physical exhaustion resulting from the
excitement of 20 hours continuous ses-
sion.
BY thus seeding, they prevented the
election of Representative Banks as
Speaker, which would have been accom-
pliShed by the failure of the Richardson
men to answer the roll call, if the sit
ting had been protracted much longer.
Such season for sleighing as the
present is an event previously unknown
in this latitude for at least a quarter of
a century. Unless. the, temperature
changes almost miraculously," is is
clear that this sport will continue per-
haps for week or fortnight longer.
It is surprising how many fine sleighs
Washington City can turn out on an oc-
casion like this. They are rushing UP
and down Pennsylvania avenue hourly,
each transporting from to 20 happy
folks. Those who have fast horses are
generally making the most of this OPP
portunity to show their capabilities to
the best advantage.
So far there has been not even a
trif1ing accident resulting from the
sleighing here, although there has been
much break-neck driving during the last
five days-more of it. in fact than has
been witnessed on the streets of this
city for Is years.
One wag today suggested that it was
too bad the House of Representatives
could not catch the infection of the fast
spirit which seems to prevail on the
streets of the city and likewise speed up
its business"
