The owner of a powder mill
Was musing on a distant hill —
Something his mind foreboded —

"I didn't know 'twas loaded."
—Swatkin

The pretence is not altogether false; character can really be read very accurately in this way, for the wrinkles in every hand submitted plainly spell the word "dupe." The imposture consists in not reading it aloud.
