Zurich Herald, 1934-05-10, Page 7What Does YourHandwriting Show? By GEOFFREY ST. CLAIR (Grapho-Analyst) All rights reserved, comment has been aroused by these articles on Character from Hand- writing. Hundreds of readers write In and ask for a personal analysis of their own writing, and the author will analyse YOURS. See the an- nouncement at the foot of this article) . * * To the hundreds of readers who have written to express their ap prod i<tion for personal character anaI+l:os, and to comment on the often uncanny accuracy of the de- lineations, I would like to take this opportunity of thanking them And, at the 'same time, to add a word of advice. The utmost value from a character analysis is only obtained by those who act on the advice suggested in their analysis. It is one thing to learn of your weak points, and to be show wherein lie your strongest characteristics But it is quite another thing to act on them! And that is where the real personal value of Grapho-Analysis come in. * * a I have a letter this week from a young lady who, for personal reasons, does not wish me to send her a let- ter. She asks that I reply in this column. And, because the subject is one that will interest a great many readers, I am very glad to do so. Miss J., Winnipeg, writes: I am very much in love with a man who is married. My parents know that I go about with this man, and are very much against it, and it is causing a great deal of trouble in my home. I am 20 years of age, .and this is the first really serious love affair that I have had, but it means everything to me. The man I love says that he is not happy with his wife, and talks about getting a divorce. But, he says, this is not possible at the present time. I do not want to give him up, but I would like your advice, as it may help me to do the right thing, Dear Miss J.—You send me your own writing, and that of the man with 1whom you are in love, but do not send me any from his wife. And after all, she is very important in this triangle! Firstly, I will deal with the man. His writing shows that he is a very competent, keen minded person, with a great deal of enthusiasm, and a rather dominant will—of the kind that does not like resistance to his own opinions, He is very strongly emotional, and is of what I will call, a "physi'cal" type of .man. There is lots of colour in his nature, and be is very fond of the fleshpots of life. But there is not very much generosity shown. Your own writing shows a very ardent and warm-hearted nature. You do things on the impulse of the moment, and are very responsive to emotional appeals. You crave af- fection, and would not be happy for long without it. You are generous and sympathetic, and always glad to do things for others. My advice to you is to give up go- ing with your gentleman friend. It is not necessary for me to go at all in- to the angle of the wife. Your nature is not compatible with that of the man. You have been over - dome by a feeling of sympathy for him, which has gradually grown into a form of love for him. But it is not a lasting love. Give him up, and you will not long lament the passing of this, your first "serious affair". His feeling for you is undoubtedly temporary—the in- fatuation nfatuation of a man much older than yourself for a young, and probably pretty, girl. Do not spoil your life because of a temporary emotional surge. 4 >* Do YOU want your character an- alysed?

'Will Compete For Academy's Prizes Dublin—Booksellers here report a better trade during 1933 than for 'many years past. Despite • the con- ,tinued growth of libraries there ap- ipears to be a revival of book -buying The Free State capital certainly re- jflects the Irishman's Iove' of liter- ature iterature in the number of bookshops and itheir attractive displays. Invitingly dressed windows waylay passers-by and inside one finds long counters set out with select:one to suit almost every conceivable taste, And most of the day a throng of "browsers" seems to be rewarding this enterprise. It is regretted in some literary cir- cles that Dublin book firms do not publish more books by Irish authors, It is pointed out that it has been left to London publishers to print many of the Free State's best works. Encouragement to support native talent, however is anticipated fol- lowing the decision of the Academy of Letters to :,Huard prizes for the most distinguished work by Irish au— thors. The younger school of nevel- ists and poets is becoming very ac- tive and it is hoped that a number of struggling writers will be helped through the academy's action.

She writes:—"For some time past, my husband has been able to work only one week in two, on ac- count of sciatica. He suffered so much from it that he could scarcely move for the pain. We tried many things, but without result. Then we saw in the papers an account of the good results that had been obtained from Kruschen Salts, and we decided to give them a trial. For twelve months past, my husband has been taking his 'little dose' of Kruschen every morning. Now, he has no more trouble with the sciatica, and is working regularly."— (Mrs,) M. Doctors estimate that one-half of civilised humanity suffers from par. tial constipation. This condition re- sults in an unsuspected residue of waste matter, which poisons the blood and produces sciatica, as well as many of the mystery aches and pains from which people suffer, Kruschen keeps the organs of elim- ination in perfect trim, so that every particle of poisonous waste material is expelled gently, regularly and com- pletely, IT'S LIVER THAT MAKES YOU FEEL SO WRETCHED • Wake up your Liver Bile —No Calomel necessary For you to feel healthy and happy, your liver must pour two pounda of li- quid into your bowels per day.

Test of Fairness I tried out an abridged question- naire, addressed to eight boys and girls, ranging in years from seven to 13, They were all children of good families, of normal intelligence, of fairly comfortable circumstances. I asked them just one question "If you were an aviator, about to take part in an air race; the winnings of which would bring you a large prize and much glory; and if by ac- cident you discovered unguarded the 'plane belonging to your closest rival, the person most likely to beat you in the race, would you damage that per- son's 'plane so it could not compete with yours? If not, why not?" Here are the eight answers just as they were given to me: 1. (Boy, 10.) No. I wouldn't because you always get caught doing anything like that 2. (Boy, 11.) If I was sure I wasn't found out. I would give the money to my mother. (Evidently something gnawing at the conscience here.) 3. (Girl, 10.) I would think it was a good thing if I could keep the other 'plane from starting, because if it did I might not win the race. 4. (Boy, seven.) I don't know how to fly. 6. (Girl, 13.) I don't think it could happen because they always have watchmen at hangars. 6. (Boy, e nine.) No, I wouldn't do it because he might find out and dam- age my 'plane. 7. (Girl, eight.) Ile would deserve it if I did it, because ho ought to watch his 'plane before a race. 8. (Boy, 12) The important thing is to win a race when you are in it, and if I could do anything to help me win, I would think it all right to do. Average Man Uses Only 700 Words How many different words does the average person use in his ordinary conversation? In a hasty look at the dictionary one might assume that his vocabulary represented a reasonable percentage of its voluminous pages Yet he may be surprised to learn that the average American goes through life without the need of more than 700 words in which to make him- self understood. The American Telegraph and Tel- ephone Company decided to investi- gate the number of words used over the telephone in order to give a scien- tific aid to its engineers in devising mechanism best suited to American speech. Out of a total of 80,000 words in the conversations selected at random at Salesman Wanted To handle excellent mining issue in this District. W. J.

Only on rare occasions does one employ its me- chanical assistance for other purpose than the moment's need. The ordinary telephone talk is not to be classed with those delightful per- iods of human contact when conver- sation responds to the stimulus of a fascinating personality. Speaking face to face is apt to pump from an intellectual well sonorous phrases and a magnificent variety of words which the telephone does not tap. But it is a sad truth that in the us- ual conversation our thoughts do not require sumptuous garb. The average of 700 words may be sufficient to co- ver the patios of the office, the golf course, the stock market or the wea ther.
