GRAPHOLOGY OR PEN PORTRAITS.

Any reader of the New Zealand Graphic can have his or her character sketched by sending a specimen of handwriting with signature or nom deplume to MADAME MARCELLA, ‘ Graphic ’ Office, Auckland. The coupon appearing on the last page of cover of the Graphic and twenty-four penny stamps must accompany each letter. Kathleen McDonald. —If your specimen be your usual hand writing you have a strong, clever, and original character. Your mind is clear and vigorous, and you possess great powers of penetration and intuition. Your will is firm and resolute ; you form your own opininns and maintain them steadfastly. You are self-reliant, self-contained, and very independent. Anything in the form of restraint is most objectionable to you ; nevertheless you will yield to loving influence so long as the rule be a gentle one. Your affections are unusually warm, but you bestow them only on a few, and even they scarcely realise how deeply and unselfishly you can love or of what passionate devotion you are capable for you are exceedingly reserved, and if you desire to do so, you are capable of rendering yourself inscrutable. You have little ambition, and still less vanity, although you have a large share of pride. Your judgment is good, but critical, and inclined to be rather severe. Your temper is very quick, but entirely under control.—Marcella.

‘ Kitty B. ’ —You are exceedingly amiable and sweettempered, truthfully sincere, and very affectionate ; but as I have to repeat so often to my correspondents, you are much too sensitive, and as you have only a moderate share of self-confidence, and a large amount of pride, I fear this must often cause you discomfort and mental suffering. You are generous and kind, quick in thought and feeling, with a lively imagination and much versatility; but lenient in your judgment of others. Your will is not very forcible, and you are susceptible of and easily influenced by public opinion. You are energetic when interested, but persevering effort is deficient, and this will be a bar to success, although you have a desire to excel, and are by no means without ambition. You have much prudence and caution, and, if you are convinced of the necessity for doing so, you can practise economy admirably.—Marcella.
