It
would be
difficult, we think, to cram a larger amount of pungent humor into
800
pages than
will
ba found
in
this really funny book. The Preface and
Dedication
a.remodels of sly simplicity, and the
24
Sketchee which follow
are among the best specimens of broad burlesque to which the genius
ot
the ludicrous, for which the Southwest is so distinguished, has yet given
birth. 12mo., cloth . ..................... .......... . ...............el.60
Dick's Mysteries of the Hand; or, Palmistry made Easy.
Translated, Abridged and Arranged from the l!'rench Works of Desbarrollee,
D'Arpentigny and De
Pa.re. d'Hormes. The various lines
a.ndmounts on
the palm of the
ba.ud,
a.ndtile typical formation of the hand and fingers
are a.11 clearly explained
a.ndIllustrated by diagrams. The meaning to be
deduced from the greater orless development of these mounts and lines
(ea.chof which ha.s Its own signification), also from the length, thickness
and shape of tbe thumb and fingers, and from the mutual bearing they
exercise on
ea.chother, is
a.lldistinctly explained. Complete facility for
instant reference
is
insured
by
means of marginal notes
by
which any
point of- detail may be found
a.ndconeulted a.t a. glance. By means of
this book the hitherto occult mystery of Palmistry is
ma.desimple and
ea.sy,and the whole Art may be acquired witbou t difficulty or delay.
It
is emphatically Palmistry in a nutshell, •md by !t.s use, charn.eter and
disposition ca.n be discerned and probable future destiny foretold with
surprising
a.ccura.cy. Illuminated pa.per cover....................60
