JNTEREST I toWTOHEN. Of Women seems to have natural inborn leaning towards fortune fortune telling. They have al most as great a learning towards having people read their “charac ters,” by means of palmestry and such things. Handwriting is one of the favor ite W ays of character reading, and it nally is astonishing how much we can tell of a person’s chaiacter and disposition by their writing— when we happen to know that per son and are already a little famil iar with his or her peculiarities. ‘ Here are a few rules to go by in fudging our friends by their writ ne To begin with the sample examined must not be of the copy book kind—it must be a character istic bit, in the usual style of the When the writing runs straight the paper it indicates the writer will be constant, enduring and per severing. A single stroke under a signa ture simply shows a strong desire for praise and affection, not so in tense as to be called vanity. If the formation of the letters is straight up and down, with no slant in either direction, the sign indicates reserve, self control and a heart completely ruled by the head. If the letters slant very' much the sign is of an impression able, sensitive nature, easy to make friends wiih, easy to offend and affectionate to the extreme of sen timentality if the slant is exagger ated. If some letters slant and the rest are vertical the writer’s heart will often be touched against his will. If the writing is full of sharp an gles at the bases of letters, and where the letters unite, the indica tion is of sternness and severity. Many curves and rounded letters show an indulgent disposition in capable of great restraint or dis cipline, and lacking self control. When words terminate with a little hock, made by a return movement of the pen when a stroke is made, the sign denotes tenacity and preseverance. Heavy strokes indicatesa strong will, and are the sign of a strong character. This indication is an important one, as it intensifies every quality'. In the terms across strokes are in cluded not only the crossing of the t's, but the dashes between words and sentences, and the stroke at the end of the words. If these strokes, especially the crossing of t’s, slant downwards the sign be trays an opinionated nature, one that is imperious and wdl not be thwarted. Should one possess logic he will be unable to reason justly, because he will be constant ly bend his logic to fit his preju dices. Heavy down strokes signify' sen suality and unmistakably bespeak strong passions. When the letters that go to form a word are all of the same size, or when they grow larger in size at the ending of the words, the sign is that of sincerity. One writing in such a manner will be fully worthy of trust. If the letters decrease in size at MOZLEY’S LHM ON ELIXIR A Pleasant Lemon Tonic. prepared from the fresh juice of lem ons, combined with other vegetable liver tonics, cathartics, aromatic stim lants.

Mozley, Atlanta, Ga. the end of a word the sign is of deceitfulness and dishonesty. The writer will be thoroughly dishon orable, using every one simply tor his own ends. If the tops of the three letters a, o and g are carefully closed the sign indicates a secretive nature. When this sign is combined with letters decreasing in size at the end at the words the indications of a treacherous nature are indicated. Letters crossed and dotted with exactness and punctuation marks exactly on the line, show's a love of detail. The writer will often lose the best conceptions by this absorbing interest in petty noth ings. Letters curving below the line of writing indicate a vivid imagi nation, intense enthusinsm and ex citability. High waiting shows nobility of character. When combined with thin, curved lines and with no heavy strokes the sign indicate spirituality. Capitals very tall, with small letters not in propor tion, show excessive pride. Although not ideal according to any school of penmanship this is a most unusual combination of char acteristics. The writing ascend ing across the page indicates cour age; the words clearly spaced point to carefullness; the long, final strokes show generosity; the letters neither vertically formed nor yet with an exaggerated slant, show tenderness and force. The high writing denotes nobility and the curving lines denote imagination and self forgetfulness. There seems to be a reaction set ting in for the athletic girl. There will probably never come a time when girls do not go in for athle letics to some extent, but if what we read about the effect of so much outdoor exercise and athletic training on girls is true, we will certainty see a moderation in the zeal, with which the girls follow athletics. It is claimed that the typical athletic girl is getting to be a big, broad, woman. She is develop ing big hands, big feet, big joints, a squareness of figure, and a man nish walk and bear which is utter ly different from womanly grace. In fact we are told that the dainty, feminine women are vanishing and giving place to the athletic girls.

Wikle, K. R. S. S. M. AKIN THK WEEKLY NEWS CRTERSVILLE, GA. BOLD HOLD UP. Frank Meadows, the Barber Has a Rough Experience. Frank Meadows, the barber, who runs a shop next to The News office, had an experience Saturday night that he will remember for some time. Meadows lives out about the tabernacle, and after counting up the $15.85 earnings of the day started home near one o’clock. He had gotten to the tabernacle grounds when he was suddenly surrounded by three men who Meadows noticed were lying down as he came up, as in waiting. With a gun in his face, heavy bludgeons in heavy striking positions, he was commanded to drop his heavy walking stick and throw up his hands. The working of going through his pockets was only a matter of a few seconds. Where the robbery occurred, is quite thickly settled, and the bandits, to make sure of the escape, commanded the luckless barber to take up a march. With a heavy set white man, with a cloth over his face, on the left covering him with a gun, a taller white man, on his right, and another following closely behind, the march was continued out Douthitt’s ferry road until the party reached a few hundreds yards this side of the river, a distance of nearly three miles from the starting point. Stop ping, the party, turning the barber around, told him to go home, not to say a word or they would “fix’ him in the future. As they stait ed off they called him back and leturned his walking slick. He reached his home an hour after wards. This is one of the boldest rob beries on record. Meadows is a very stout negro, and under ordi nary circumstances, well able to care for himself, but in this in stance he was covered so quickly that resistance would have been somewhat dangerous.
