WHAT TOUR TONGUE REVEALS. “Put out your tongue” is a phrase associated in most people’s minds with (lectors, and is usually reminiscent of minor ailments and nasty medicines; spoken by a glossomancist, however, the curt command takes on an altogether different significance. A glossomancist, it may be as well to explain, is a professor of glossomancy, a new science which consists in reading people’s characters by the shape and size of their tongues. Thus, according to its votaries, the possessor of a short and broad tongue is apt to be untruthful as to words and unreliable as to deeds. A long tongue moderately pointed denotes frankness and a loving trustful, affectionate disposition. When the tongue is long and broad, however, it is a sign that the owner is shallow and superficial, and also ft great talker. The small, round, tongue, plump, and in shape like an oyster, denotes mediocre abilities and a nature that is commonplace and colourless. A short, narrow tongue goes with ft nature that is at once quick-temp-ered and yet affectionate, strong, and sudden in hate as in love.
