KEY TO THE EORTUNE-TELLER. 
The following five questions are answered, re¬ 
specting the character and future fortunes of an 
individual. 
1. What is my character ? 
2. What is, or will he, the state or quality of my 
love? 
3. What is, or will be, my worldly fortune ? 
4. What is the scene in which most of my life 
will be spent ? 
5. What is the character of my future com¬ 
panion? 
The person consulting our little Fortune-Teller, 
must select a bouquei of five different colored flow¬ 
ers, of whatever kind he chooses. The White shall 
describe to him his character; the Blue, the state 
or quality of his love; the Purple, his worldly for¬ 
tune ; the Yellow, the scene in which his life shall 
be chiefly passed; and the Red, the character of his 
future wife. 
For example; if a gentleman bring a white Lily, 
a blue Violet, a Foxglove, a Marigold and a red 
Rose, he will first turn to the catalogue of While 
flowers, where, under the head of Lily, he will find 
this description of his character: 
“ Of a free and open nature, 
That thinks men honest that but seem to be so, 
And will as tenderly be led by the nose 
As asses are.” 
Shakspeare.
