READING CHARACTERS IN WRITING.
There are persons who profess to judge of character by handwriting, and to judge from their advertisements, there is very little doubt that their profession pays them. Yet their judgments, after all, are mere matters of guesswork. They base them, as the gipsics do, on the mere pretence of simply looking at the hand. Now, writing a good hand by no means generally implies the having a good head. Still less is it indicative of having a good heart. A man may be remarkable for the superfinest qualities, and yet may write the coarsest and most commonplace of bands. He may have the clearest brain, and yet may sign his name so puzzlingly that nobody can read it. Many a man indeed who cannot write his name at all, may, without untruth, be looked on as a man of mark.
