HEALTH AND HANDWRITING
NEW AID TO DIAGNOSIS. LONDON, October 8. Sir James Barr, the eminent physician, in an article in the Medical Press, claims that he has made successful experiments in telling' the age, sex, and nationality, and in diagnosing disease, from the handwriting of unseen patients, by the methods of Dr Abrams, of San Francisco. "Dr Abrams’s methods of analysis are simple enough when you know how to do it,” he says. “There is no trickery or sleight of hand. The analysis is based on physics. In writing, energy passes from the finger-tips to the paper, and the individual’s personality is transferred to the paper!”
