FAILED. y They Were Crazy With Fear and Gave Him No Heed. Now the gray, old leader was not a coward himself. He would never have become a leader if he had been a coward. When he heard that danger signal he scrambled out of the nest where he had been taking a nap and hurried forth to lead his tribe in the great fight they had planned. Almost at once he met one of the loudest boasters among the younger rats, and this fellow was running in the opposite direction from the way he should have been going. More than this, he was squealing with fright. Then another still another raced wouldnt have the smallest chance and another and each past, frantically squealing with in the world. All those rats had been very bold They were crazy with fear and gave him no heed. In all directions he could hear frightened squeaks and squeals and the scampering of many feet. He knew then that that which he had most feared had happened. The mere presence of Billy Mink had awa.ened that inborn fear, and each rat was thinking only of himself and how he could escape.

A FTER you have studied a few thumbs and have applied the principles set forth in these lessons, you will understand why the expert hand analyst relies so much on this element of the hand as his gauge of temperamental qualities. Characteristics of the Thumb. The thumb always denoted those qualities of the personality which concern the temperamental reactions of the individual to the influences and environments which mold his or her life. The first, or nail, joint indicates ; the degree and type of the will; the second, or middle joint the powers of logic and analysis; the third, or palm joint nearest the palm, and to the underside of which is attached the large rounded muscle which regulates the movements of the whumb, the amount and quality of the affections. The length and shape of these member., are accurate in denoting the attributes just named. The position of the thumb itself is also of great importance. Its separation from the rest of the hand when in repose holds, as you shall later see, much that indicates generosity , or the reverse as the case may be. The thumb tells us clearly of the unfavorable qualities of will or logic which should and can be corrected. Antelope Turban ; . Bonbons j . . Governor-ele- ct been completed. UT.
