DISPOSITION AND CHARACTER BY THE MODE OF SHAKING HANDS.

THEIR EXPRESSION OF CHARACTER.--Thus, those who give a tame and loose hand,

and shake lightly, have a cold, if not heartless and selfish disposition,

rarely sacrificing much for others, are probably conservatives, and lack

warmth and {476} soul. But those who grasp firmly, and shake heartily, have

a corresponding whole-souledness of character, are hospitable, and will

sacrifice business to friends; while those who bow low when they shake

hands, add deference to friendship, and are easily led, for good or bad, by

friends.
