THE HUMAN FFGURE.-The pro-
portions of the human figure are six
times the length of the the feet
Whether the form is slender or plump,
the rule holds good any deviation
from it is departure from the highest
beauty in proportion. The Greeks
make all their statues according to
this rule. The face, from the highest
point of the forehead, where the hair
begins. to the chin is one-tenth of the
whole stature. The hand, from the
wrist to the middle finger. is the same.
From the top of the chest to the high
est point of the forehead, is a seventh.
If the face, from the roots of the chin,
be divided into three equal parts, the
first division determines the place
where the eyebrows meet, and the
second the place of the nostrils. The
height, from the feet to the top OF the
head, is the distance from the ex-
tremity of the fingers when the arms
are extended

BOGUS DIPLOMAS.
philadelphia Record


There is badge of fraud in the
very selection of the name of the bogus
diploma factory recently exposed IN
these columns. 1t is so closely similar
to that of the University of PennsyI-
vania, known and honored through
out the world, as to be easily con-
founded with it in the minds OF the un-
wary. The title of the fraudulent IN
stitution now commanding so consld-
cradle a degree of public attention was
very probably adopted with deliber-
ate purpose OF deception. Like colora-
bic limitations of trademarks and copy
rights, it is a manifest counterfeit. The
University of Pennsylvania is located
in Philadelphia, and it annually grad
yates a large number Of physicians.
The "Philadelphia University OF Med
icine" might easily pass for it at a DIS
tance from the city, and degree given
by this miserable make-believe concern
might readily be mistaken for the i'm
imprimature of what is recognized as
one of the foremost of the great medl-
cal schools of the United States.
Evidently the main object of this
swipdle. apart from the pecunlary pur-
nose it subserves to those who run 1t,
is to supply credentials to intending
quacks by which these villanous cheats
may be helped to impose upon the
public. The wickedness OF such fraud
it is not needful to enlarge upon. The
injury done to properly instructed and
reputable practitioners OF the healing
art and the disgrace brought upon the
fair fame of this city by its existence
here are sufficiently b d results; but
worse than these is the sending forth
to work havoc upon the community at
large of licensed murderers, whose
pills and powders are potent only TO
kill such patients as may fall into their
hands. A sad feature of this discred-
liable business is the connection with
it of several ministers OF the Gospel.
Some of these are perhaps amenable
