You are literary, and should be enabled to write.

You like good clothes but are not obsessed by them at all — like so many women of your acquaintance.

You have a good business head, and will make a success in this direction, if you stick to it, and do not allow yourself to be cast down by the slights and difficulties you encounter.

You pass through a good deal of mental anguish in your life, due to over sensitiveness on your part.

Learn that other person, whose skins are thicker than yours, do not mean things as they sound to you.

You will travel much and see all parts of the world.

You are attractive to the opposite sex, by reaaan of your piquant sadness and sincerity of manner.

Cultivate a sense of humor; be open and frank and take good care of your physical health. You need to become strong and robust, before all else.
