Embarrassing Palmistry

A good hand reading depends on
1.What's actually there and
2.The palmist's experience.
For example, highly-strung people tend to have lots of lines, and you can chatter away for hours. Some men have very few - they're difficult. Many's the time a man, prodded by his wife, will spread his hands for you to read and there's almost nothing there. You look dismayed - he smiles understandingly. You do your best - he tells you you're wrong. You could kill him and he knows it. Don't feel bad - it happens. Just make sure he pays you - it's your next bottle of gin, after all! Palmistry has nothing to do with E.S.P. People often ask in amazement, "But how can you possibly know that? I've never told anybody." Really it's so easy - if I can do it, anyone can - believe me! Each life conforms to a set of patterns, which are written in the hand. All you have to do is learn the language they're written in: then it's just like reading a book.
"But this is all too brief," you cry. "I need to know more." Of course it's brief - what do you expect from this peep - blood? Relax. In this book you'll find all sorts of pearls of wisdom, and pithy anecdotes too.
