be ruined through the affections.

Twisted, it denotes ill-luck.

An island in the line indicates some scandal.

A break in the line means losses or misfortunes. There are people who have no line of destiny-it is a sign of a life of insignificance. The Esquimaux generally lack this line, from their vegetative existence.

If the line of fate should go or send branches to any mount other than that of Saturn, it promises success in the qualities of that mount.

A straight line, coloured at the end, promises a happy old age.

If the line is straight and full of branches which rise high up, it is passing from poverty to riches.

Bright-coloured lines betray quick temper and ardent natures. Very few lines coming outward denote a nature very self-contained.

The Head-Line.-The line of the head relates to the mentality of the subject, the intellectual development, and the diseases that may affect the brain.

It may rise from three points-from the mount of Jupiter, the line of life, or from the mount of Mars, just inside the life-line, and it crosses the palm. A long line rising from Jupiter indicates great brain-power, especially if near the life-line. Separated from it, a loss of capacity and balance is shown.

A head-line rising on the mount of Mars indicates a worrying nature, irritable, and quarrelsome.

When the line of head is straight, clear, and even it denotes practical common sense and a love for material things more than the imaginative.

When straight in the first half and then slightly sloping, it shows a level head, a well-balanced nature. When it has a long, gentle slope, the general tendencies are imaginative, and the line shows a love of art, music,

etc.

When very sloping-on the mount of Luna-it denotes intense idealism, love of the romantic, mysticism, etc. When the head-line is so high on the palm that it leaves a very narrow space between it and the heartline, it denotes that the head will rule the heart. If a branch from it rises upward and joins the heartline, some great affection or fascination will rule the subject.

Islands betray a poor memory.

A double head-line shows great versatility. Bifurcated at the end near Luna's mount, it indicates selfdeception.

A deep, well-formed, good-coloured line shows a good memory.

A line, twisted or ill-formed, curving on the mount of Luna, indicates worrying timidity, morbid imagination.

A head-line far apart from the life-line shows rashness; very closely connected, lack of self-confidence.

A line chained or linked indicates want of intelligence. If it goes to the side of certain mounts, the idea turns towards the qualities inspired by those mounts. If toward Mercury, it is commerce; if toward the Sun, it is power, celebrity, or riches.

The Line of the Sun.-This has been variously called the line of Apollo, of success, of fortune. It is found ascending to the third finger. This line promises a life full of brightness, glory, success, if not contradicted by little or no fate-line or a bad head-line, in which case it

denotes a nature longing for such things without power of expression.

If it rise from the line of life and the rest of the hand is artistic, it means success in an artistic career. Rising from the fate-line, it increases whatever is promised by that line-great distinction if the line be clear.

When it runs from the wrist straight up to the third finger, it indicates exceptional success in any career.

If the line runs from Luna up to the third finger, it means an eventful life-full of changes-and the subject of a changeable disposition, dependent, too, upon the fortunes of others and their caprices.

Rising from the plain of Mars, it denotes success after great difficulties, or a fighting chance.

Parallel to a good fate-line, it is the promise of the acquisition of wealth.

The absence of the line indicates that the recognition of the world will be hard to gain.

If the line of the Sun goes to Saturn, it denotes sorrow. The Health-Line.-This line runs from the mount of Mercury down the hand.

The less of this line, the better. When absent, the constitution is stronger. The heavier the line, the more the nervous system is impaired.

When the line of life and the health-line meet, there will be probability of death when that meeting-place

occurs.

When the line is red and heavy, it shows tendency to fever.

When forked or broken, bad digestion.

Lines of Marriage.-Long, horizontal lines on the side of the mount of Mercury relate to marriages; shorter ones to love affairs.

One long, deep, well-formed line foretells a happy

marriage. A line dropping low down in the palm signifies that the person will lose his or her life-companion. When the line curves upward the subject is not likely to marry at all.

When little hair-lines drop from it toward the heartline, it tells of trouble and worry in marriage.

A strong line joining the line of Fate predicts the date of the marriage.

When the line of marriage divides at the end into a drooping fork, sloping toward the centre of the palm, it threatens a separation or divorce.

When full of islands, it foretells unhappiness and disappointment in married life.

Children are indicated by fine, upward lines from the middle or end of the line of marriage on the mount of Mercury.

Deeply marked lines denote male children; those more faintly marked, female. Clear lines denote healthy children.

The numbers are counted from the outside or middle of the marriage-line in toward the hand.

Life Bracelets, or Rascettes.-On the wrist are found these lines-three of them, if one is to live to a good old age. Clearly traced, they denote good health. Twisted, criss-crossed, they show uneven health. A star on the centre of the rascettes signifies unexpected good fortune; a cross-they foretell a laborious life.

MYSTIC FORTUNES

To find your mystic fortune, you must first discover the number upon which hangs your fate. To do this, multiply the day of the month upon which you were born by seven-the magical number.

The extreme left-hand digit of the product will be the number upon which hangs your fate.

Select now from the list of questions the one to which you want an answer, and, turning to the "Magic Tables," you will find the number of the section which contains the answer in the column opposite the number of your question and in the column below your mystic number. For example:

You want an answer to question No. 2. You were born on the 8th of the month, which, multiplied by seven, equals 56 (8 x 756). Five is therefore your mystic number. Turn to the Magic Table and find No. 2 at the extreme left of the page under the heading "Fateful Questions" and No. 5 at the top of the page. The number below No. 5 and on a line with No. 2 is the number of the section in which your answer will be found, being in this case Section No. 62.

Your mystic number being 5, the answer to your question will be the fifth in that section.
