Handwriting
What It May Reveal.
BY MILDRED MOCKABEE.
QA pof k4>s4
Zz eMuaeE

THIs writing has many different
slants The whole page gave
a rather uneven, ragged ap-
Il pearance, suggesting q writer
who finds 1t hard to do things
with her hands, Although she may
have learned to do some types Of hand
work, it probably did not come easily
or naturally for her, but was the re-
suit of much time and patience.
The capital "I" is unique. Notice
that it has a large upper loop with
practically no base. This may be in
terpreted in either of two ways. The
writer is perhaps the type who has
fine abilities and great confidence In
herself. Her difficulty would tend to
be in lack of ability to express herself.
It would be hard to demonstrate the
practically of her ideas to others, be-
cause of this difficulty in self-expres-
sion. On the other hand, it may be
that she lacks the proper amount Of
seIf-confidence and for that reason
finds it hard to convince others Of her
worth. In such a case, any degree Of
public recognition would be a real sur
prise to her.
The points on letters such as 'h, /"
''r" and IN" suggest a tendency to be
very critical. She may be very quiz
zical about the work Of others, even
though she is interested in them in a
personal way. She seems the kind of
person who would be hard to convince
of the feasibility of any new ideas or
plans. Once decided that the thoughts
were good, however, she would surely
devote all possible energies to their
furtherance.
She should avoid Withdrawing too
much from her friends. This would
perhaps be an unconscious act which
she would not realize until she had
been eliminated from many pleasures.
She should surely make the effort to
go out and mix freely with people.

DISTIS0 HELD FOR DEATH OF JAMES CLIFTI
Coroner Charges Driver With Gross
 Criminal Negligence
Finds Brakes of Death Car Defective at Time of Fatal
 Accident Driver Faces Arrest on Charge of Auto- mobile Homicide a

Alleging that the death of James A. Gift, 79, prominent resident of Waterville, was due to the gross and criminal negligence of Daniel Di- Stiso of 55 Sheffield street, Coroner John T. Monzani filed an official opinion to this effect t. day with the clerk of the superior court. Di- Stiso's car was equipped with defec- tive brakes when on the evening of December Eth he ran down and fatally injured MT Gift. The latter the home of lifelong friend, Fred erick Snyder when he met his death. He died of a fractured skull and in- ternal injuries.
 DiStiso, who has been at liberty on his own recognizance, will be ar- rested sometime to-day or tom orrow on the charge of auto homicide l
 The coroner's inquest was featured by the examination of the following witnesses: Charles Barker, 1884 Thomaston avenue; Daniel DiStiso 55 Sheffield street; John Fada, 1292 ThOmaston avenue; Patrolman Ed ward Roach, Frank P. Slavin, 1282 Thomaston avenue; Frederick P. Snyder, 1282 Thomaston avenue, and Fred E. Zaugg, 1274 Thomaston avenue.
 The finding is as follows:
 Deceased had been calling at the home of Frederick P. Snyder, 1869 Thomaston avenue, Waterville, on the afternoon of December 7th, 1880. Snyder's house is located on the westerly side of the street, and when Gift left there at about 5:3O, he started to cross to the easterly side on which there is sidewalk to go up toward the center of Waterville, wfiere he lived. It was then dark, and the old gentleman waited to let several cars pass in d southerly di- rection before he started out into the street to cross to the other. side. When the southbound traffic had passed and there was no apparent traffic coming in the opposite direc- tion. he started directly across from MT Snyder's home to the opposite side of the street. When he had reached point a little more than halfway across the street, an auto mobile operated by Daniel DiStiso approached from the south, and at that time MT Gift was directly in the path of DeStiso's machine. MT Cliff then started to hurry to avoid being struck by the machine and had reached a point practically at the Junction of the hard surface and the shoulder of the road when DeStiso, Whe was then driving partly on the shoulder of the road and partly on the hard surface, struck MT Gift and threw him diagonally out into the center of the highway where he struck at apotnt about in front of
