The moment a subject enters the room the fortune-teller sizes him up. A clever amateur, used to observing manners and characteristics and experienced in con- tact with people during which he has kept his eyes systematically open, can train himself wonderfully to tell what ‘seems a miraculous amount of Informa- tion about his subject by simply observ- ing him as he takes ‘his place before him. It is no exaggeration to say that half the professtonal fortune-tellers are simply trained observers and students of human nature. What is more important, Toit more fortunes by common sense told that it was his caution whioh held him back, and not lack of courage, and he will delleve it. “Let the amateur tell a man he was never born to have any one ovér him, but that he was intended to rule, and there Isn't a masculine mind that won't ‘begin to unbend toward the amateur and to look with Indulgence upon his ability. “Follow this up by telling him that how I do that, though I have been of- fered a good many hundred Wollars to do so. That is a gift, and of course canrot be depended upon to be possessed by any one, though some people have It unoonactously. Every one nearly hi some degroe of it, and upon the degres of this faculty in the amateur depends his success in pretending at fortune- telling. If tho faculty is at all de- veloped in him, he will very often be moreover, they know upon what surface indications not to rely to reveal char- acter. Romanya, the pretty gypsy fortune- teller, who ig an all-around adept at piercing the future, although she says herself does not depend upon per- sonal observation of her subjects, tells how far this !s important to her, and about some fortune-tellers whom sie has known to whose “reading” it is an essential, “Whenever aman comes to me,” said Romanya, “I am always sure that his visit.1s prompted -by one of two motives: Ether he comes through curiosity or else he has some business worries, A man very rarely consults a fortune- teller—at least a woman fortune-teller— abbut love.

I will ‘tell Little aitting-room on the “When @ wonian comes to me, on the other hand, it is usually pretty sure to be love, oF else love and business troubles. But there is almost always Jove somewhere connected with her coming. “Upon those two things I can always bapk—and I never knew it to fail. Any palmist, or fortune-teller of any sort, may depend upon that, and it makes a good beginning for an amateur—because the subject, man or woman, is sure to ‘be Involved either in business or love. Otherwise the subject ig so peculiar that he would not consent to have his for- tune toki even for fun. So the parlor fortune-teller, tf he is clever at all, has @ good etart. “When he considers business, the amateur has a good guide in the mere appearance of the hands. The shape of the hand will indicate the temperament to the veriest beginner and will be use- ful however he intends to tell the for- tune, by palmistry or otherwise. The jong hand ls sure to mean the artistic temperament; the soft hand shows a person tn art or @ profession; the well- kept hand reveals daintiness and love of order to some extent. A glance will show all that and serve as a valuable gulde. “Now, beyond that,” safd Romanya, “I myself pay no attention to the ap- Pearance of the wubjeat; ‘nor to my own, impressions about why he has come. 1 fead trom there by the lines of the paims, without even glancing at tne Berson, dnd without the slightest use of muscle. reading.

If ‘he follows this by sayinr that he is not easily seriously impresse: ‘by a woman, the subject is surer still of the superior intelligence of the for- tune-teller. And a man is pretty gener- ally more or less interested in two women, or at least there are two to whom his mind instantly reverts when the amateur tells him that he ‘e influ- able to tell a fortune as well as a professioral palmist. “How can ‘he do this? . Well Romanya, “I can tell you what some professional fortune-tellerd who are con- sidered reputable and are a great deal consulted in New York now have told me about the way they work. Thetr methods, I claim, may be adopted, by any amateur. “The basis of this sort of fortune-tell- ing," said Miss Knapp, “is a play upon the vanity of the subject. “For instance: Suppose the subject is aman. I have just told you that a man varely comes to a fortune-teller about love, but when he is once there he will Isten readily to disclosures about his love affairs after his confidence has been won. The start, th.-efore,' ought to be made about business. Now let the fortune-teller tell him that he has a good deal of business ability, but that he sometimes goes wrong through the advice of friends, and he has hit pretty nearly any possible case, To be sure, the man may never have gone wrong through friends at all, but he never falls to belleve he has, rather than by his own errors, And he has pretty certainly had some slight business reverse at some time, Then let him be told he has ¢re- mendous determination, backed by dis- cretion, which sometimes holds it in check and prevents his acting upon what he has set out to do. Every man believes he has determination; every man has some time failed to exercise It, clever and intellectual and high-minde: and the other beautiful and exception- ally attractive and affectionate. The amateur must never forget to add that both are fond of the man, “Luck in affairs of the heart; capa- bility of sacrifice for the one loved; courtesy and consideration for all women; superior abfity to read a woman the first, time be meets her; Dressmaker.
