Physiognomy is generally looked
upon as an idle science, not indeed,
deserving the name. All must admit
that it is an uncertain one; but yet
there is something in the human coun.
,ernance, whether it be in feature or
in expression, or in both combined.
which has its effect upon every one.
We Judge by it, even when we know
not tina, we are judging; we act 10
consequence OF its indications, without
being aware that we are influenced
by it.
