Wrist. Moles on the wrist, or between that and the finger ends, show the person to be of an ingenious and industrious turn, faithful in his engagements, amorous and constant in his affections, rather of a saving disposition, with a great degree of sobriety and regularity in his dealings. It foreshows a comfortable acquisition of fortune, with a good partner, and beautiful children, but some disagreeable circumstances will happen about the age of thirty, which continue four or five years. In a man, it denotes being twice married—in a woman only once, but that she will survive her husband.
TO CHOOSE A HUSBAND BY THE HAIR.
Black. Generally healthy, but apt to be cross; fond where he fixes his attachment, and likely to make a good husband, and be careful of his family: but if short and curly, is usually of an unsettled temper, apt to show a want of prudence and carefulness in early life.
White or Fair Hair. Usually of a weak and sickly constitution, fond of music, and will cut no great figure in the world.
Yellow. Fond, but inclinable to jealousy; and not always industrious.
Light Brown. Sensible and good-humored, careful and attentive, and, if saving of his income, generally makes a good husband; but is apt to be otherwise.
Dark Brown. Neither very good nor very bad, middling in all respects, but may be regarded as a pretty good character.
Very Dark Brown. Of a robust constitution, and of a grave disposition, but sometimes not very good-tempered and sensible, and kind to a good wife.
Red. Will be cunning, artful, and fond of female companions; and be generally of a lively temper, and sometimes careless of money.
