Kitty's hands gripped each other firmly, a habit she had when need- ing control or faced with a difficulty. She had been a fool not to have seen this before. Instead she had felt se- curity in it. The lonely boy might have sought companionship and found love, but in his friendship with his cousin she felt an ally. She 'wanted to keep him with her. She had been parted from him so much and had made so many sacrifices, and now she grew afraid of anyone who threatened to take him from her. Some day he would marry, but not yet. He was still young, When he married...... In her most secret thoughts she planned a brilliant marriage for him, Now Norah had come crashing in with her disturbing suggestion that Robin was in love with Genevieve. She objected to cousins marrying; there was always the fear of the cbil- dren being—queer. But, in any case, a dominant character like Genevieve would be the worst type of wife for Robin. She would overshadow him. She was not social. True, she play- ed hostess at the Hutt very success- fully, but she hated society and its ways, and would not be a good in- Suence on Robin. She was too self- contained. She would drag Robin away from the world in which she wanted bim to shine, Her ambitions were all wrong, Alarm at the prospect and anger at Norah's clumsy suggestion that it was Robin's friendship that was keeping Genevieve from marrying, completely spoilt her day. She was glad when Genevieve called them in to tea. No more was said, but Norah felt a chilly note in Kitty's good-bye.

She might be able to break it from that end, and spare her an embarrassing in- terview with Genevieve, from which she always came out worst, Two days later Genevieve went in to Wellington and, under Maisie's guidance, bought her shorthand books and hired a typewriter. Maisie had oui INCA The GREAT TONiC /''At all good Drug & Dept. Store Sales Agents: Harold F.

Not that it affected him, bestowed on it a tract of land, which but it suggested restlessness, and he did not enjoy the prospect of Gene- vieve leaving him. Maisie's visits were welcome, however. He found her amusing. Norah was greatly distressed when she heard about Genevieve's new fad. Her hopes of Genevieve's marriage seemed to recede further; it was very disappointing. Robin said he'd give her a job in the office, and Kelly remarked that it was not considered decent to lure domestic servants from their allegi- ance, "Can't you convince him of its usefulness?" asked Maisie. "I haven't tried, If he hasn't the intelligence to see, it's a waste of time." "Perhaps you could convince me, Maisie," and Kelly smiled at her. A quick flush colored her face. So that's it, thought Genevieve, and she went to the kitchen to talk to the maid about what sandwiches to make for tea. The idea that Maisie was becoming fond of Kelly took root, and at every turn she found confirmation of it.

"Nor more of this damn' play-act- ing till you're through," he said, and Peter was torn from the amateur op- eratic society, causing, he was con- vinced, considerable loss to the com- pany. Maisie still played leading roles, and steadily consolidated her footing in those circles which impinged upon music and the theatre. Without conniving at the affair, which she knew must meet with vio- let. opposition from her parents, Gen- evieve, however, devised excuses for leaving Kelly and Maisie together. "Come on, Robin, I want a walk be- fore supper." Robin was only too glad of the chance to have Genevieve for an hour and in that easy manner of human affairs a few repetitions soon became a fixed habit. ,CHAPTER SEVENTEEN "How nice, Robin!

At least such was the decision of the judges in a debate at a meeting of Trinity United Young People Society on the subject "Resolved that a nag- ging but efficient and tidy wife is preferable to a slovenly but good- natured one." The judges awarded. the decision to the negative which was upheld by A. P. Brander and Ira Hammond, while William Walk- er and J. Ashton Lillie arg ietl for the affirmative.

Luaaa• ai•Llcl.aa ".o:.-: tain requests for more information as to the reasons for Graphology being so accurate, and many wish to know more about the underlying principles that make this so accurate and helpful a science. In this week's article, I would like to go back to the beginnings of Graphology—when those who were beginning to wonder whether hand- writing really did show something of the writer's character, were hitting in the dark, as it were. It will show you that for hundreds of years, re- search has been proceeding into the mysteries that lie beneath the ap- parently simple symbols that mark mankind's efforts to converse on paper. The first known book on charact- er from Handwriting was published in 1622—three hundred years ago—by a man named Camille Baldo. In the year 1792, the German historian, I. C. Grohmann, wrote on the same theme, and this was followed in 1823 by an Englishman, Stephen Collet, It will surprise many readers to learn that the well-known writer, Edgar Allen Poe, was an industrious seeker after the truth about charact- er delineation from handwriting. And we find that Sir Walter Scott, whose novels, whilst not so popular today as some years ago, are still ranked as classics, wrote the following in 1829, in his book, "The Chronicles of the Canongate": "My first impres- sion was to thrust the manuscript in the fire , . A little reflection made me ashamed of this feeling of im- patience, and as I looked at the even, concise, yet tremulous hand in which the manuscript was written, I could not help thinking according to opin- ion I Have heard seriously maintain - DR.WERNETS POWDER FOR HOLDING TIGHT 11145 1 TEEM No slipping or slid- { ng—no clicking when you use this grand powder that tnost dentists pre- Oeribe—it's a joy to all users and is the largest seller in the world -leaves no colored, gummy taste —all drug stores, Issue No. 6—'35 42 ed, that something of a man's charact- er may be conjectured from his hand- writing. That neat, but crowded and constrained, small hand argued a man of a good conscience, well -regu- lated passions, and, to use his own phrase, an upright walk in life, but it also indicated narrowness of spir- it, inveterate prejudice, and hinted rat some degree of intolerance . , . , . Then the flourished capital let- ters, -which ornamented the com- mencement of each paragraph, and the name of his family and of his ancestors, whenever these occurred forcibly the pride and sense of im- portance with whicht the author - undertook and accomplished the task?" These words of Sir Walter Scott are significant of the awakening in- terest in the possibilities of recog- nising the truth about a person's na- ture from his manner of writing, many years ago. I would like to put it in another way to my readers. Do you not re- cognise the handwriting of your friends? Even if you are accustom- ed to have correspondence from a score of acquaintances and friends, as a rule you can identify eaoh one by the writing, Some of the hand- writings will lock somewhat alike, but you rarely make a mistake in properly identifying the writer. This shows that each writing has its in- dividual chacteristics. From a real- isation of this fact, which is self- evident, it is not a long step to an assumption that, if different writings show the individual characteristics, then it is possible to accurately identify those characteristics. And that is exactly what Graphol- ogy does. Would you like to have a personal character study from your own hand- writing? And have you any friends whose real natures you would like to know?

If in addition you would like to have a copy of Mr. St. Clair's new chart —the Graphochart—which contains over 100 illustrations, and shows you how to analyse handwriting for your- self, send an additional 12c for your copy.
