He felt very satisfied with himself, as he paid for two big sweet-smell­ ing bunches. • Dan snapped the case, and locked his treasures up in his. dispatch case. “I’d better be off, I reckon,” he remarked. ’ “How are you spending this even­ ing?1’ -Eve -asked. - “Mr. Medlicott- -said-yoU’-had’-no-^riends-in-Lohdon'r^ ^™^HaughF^T’d: hioucir* around’" . town a bit,” Dan said, his tone be< tracing his .■ lack of interest in the, prospect.: ’ . . ■ . “Because one of the other girls here is going ’ to. the theatre yvith me,” Eve said. “We know, a little foreign place where We dine cheap­ ly; and then we queue up for the “I wish you were twins, Mr. Pres­ cott,” said Frankie Carruthers, snif­ fing appreciatively -at the flowers, when Dan shyly offered them. “And your taste in chocsjshows that some girl must have trained you properly.

The last simple child of nature who did that came to a had end—for the purchasers.” /“How was that?” Eve asked. “He got -his claws on the cash and vanished Into the great open spaces, where men. are men,” Frankie ex­ plained. ’ “He left the mine as a sou­ venir, but the one thing that copldn’t be found in it .was gold.” • (To be Continued) You’ll like the rich, full flavour of Salada Orange Pekoe Blend.

But at any rate these hints' will prove interesting and may. help some' of you to a greater (understanding of the value. of hand­ writing as a chart of character. There are some people w'hose writ­ ing dips' over to the right in an alarm­ ing fashion.-These are the people who are swayed by their feelings to a very marked degree. You' will' find them excitable, easily affected by things that are happening, apt to worry tinduly about little things,, and, generally, to be of a highly-strung, nervous .temperament. When thing’s get tense, in a :word, during an em­ ergency, for instance, these are the sort of people who get excited, flur­ ried and ruffled. They do not know what to do, and even sometimes ex­ bibit signs of extreme hysteria. Now let' us look for a moment at the other extreme. The vertical writ­ er who is Influenced a good deal by her mind. Vertical (practically straight up and down writing) writ­ ers are invariably poised. They de­ liberate things , before acting; there is no haste to ‘rush in where angels fear to tread’. They judge deliberate­ ly, and they ’ are. inclined to study their own self-interest, What will they get out of- this? is a question that, they invariably pose to them­ selves. They might have just as much emotional feeling as those writers Who slant their wrting far forward, but the difference is that they have, more control oy^er their feelings. They are mentally poised.- They are rarely impetuous; they temper their enthus­ iasm ^with .caution, and do not show their, affect icn o- iirdonr demonstrat­ ively.- • r ‘ f ■ These are the U’ people who invariably make the best nurses. They 'have coolness even under the stress of sudden emergencies; they are bal­ anced and self-possew-ed. hey may be affectionate and kindly and sympa­ thetic, but they are also practical and level-headed. Let us now go t'o the backhand writ­ ers—those persons «who deliberately write in opposition to all th^ canons of copybook writing? They are even “mote selLinterefjt,ed than the' vertic­ al writer. Self is the ruling factor They 'usually think oiore of them- ;7'el-ves“d,-h-an'_of—an-yoBe—elser-Tfr-'is—yei-y- seldom. indeed that these backhand writers' are impulsive. There is usu­ ally .a reason—to their own satisfac­ tion, at least—for everything that they do.. •f ■ < * ' • And therd is another feature ap­ propriate to the backhand, writers; They are more, usually self-reliant than those of forward slanted Writing. They do not ‘ depend so much on others. . . This is about aB I can cover in .the space at my disposal.
