Character Told In Greeting.

Joseph Simms, M. D., in “Physiognomy Illustrated,” says: “The man who gives you a warm, cordial, hearty grasp, looks you straight in the face, with a pleasant, open smile, and shakes your hand up and down, withdrawing his after a second earnest; gentle pressure, is almost without an exception an honest, earnest and true friend. The man who gives you the wagging, horizontal mill hopper shakfr and lets slip your hand as if it weref greasy or oily, will almost certainly be found to be a selfish, cunning and deceitful man, ready to sell you the moment be can realize a dollar.”
