One Way, So Thay 8ay, of Reading Person's Character. The closer the thumb la set to the wrist, the greater tbe amount of amia ble qualifies a person possesses. And, conversely, tbe higher on the hand the thumb Is set. tbe lower the order of his mental and moral makeup. Moukeys' thumbs abut from the hand at a poiut close to the Angers, Tbt closer to this formation a human being comes the more monkey-like Intelli gence and character he la apt to have. A thumb set very close to the wrist shows sympathy for all in distress. great generosity. Independence, lore of liberty for self and others and a readi ness to share with the unfortunate. When the , second phalSnJt of the thumb la much longer than the nail phalanx, there la a discordant relation between reason and wllL Reason preponderates to inch an ex tent that the entire life la spent in planning what to do without ever do ing. , A person of this kind sees clearly what is best for him, bnt lacks de termination to put it Into execution. He sees tbe goal and the steps neces sary for attaining It, but in the same glance he takes in all the obstacles, nnd while be is pondering the matter the opportunity to win success escapes. -St Louis Post-Wspatcn.
