New Brunswick Parish Under Curfew Law There is increasing evidence that certain ailments can be discerned from handwriting. People suffering from heart trouble roflect this condiâ€" tion in their writing. _ 1 have seen women‘s writing that looked masculine, and, conversely, I have examined the writing of men that looked for all the worl1 like that of a woman. Then again, some young people write a mature bhand, and on the other hand, 1 have seen the writâ€" ing of a man of 50 which seemed to be that of a youth in his teens. We can only get from handwriting what is in it. _ And, whilst 1 am discussing objecâ€" tions, 1 would like to stress that it is not possible to tell a person‘s age or sex from bandwriting. Here and there, a tratned graphoâ€"analyst will be able to hazard a guess. There is no scientific foundation for it, however, and consequently, no reputable graphoâ€" analyst will attempt it. Each® one writes differentlyâ€"a difâ€" ferent slant, a different pressure, and differing conformations of letters. This shows that, as one grows, one‘s character changes or strengthens, and: one‘s handwriting changes too. ] The answer to this objection only proves how strongly handwriting does show character. Because if you will study the writing of a single class of students who have learned writing from the same copybook, a few years afterwards, you will not find two who write alike. \ One of the most frequent objections is posed by those who ask "How can handwriting sbhow one‘s character, when we are taught how to write from the same copybook in school?" * * By GEOFFREY ST.
