''0f course l can tell you the secret
of your life," answered visiting
phrenologist, who was running his fin
gers nimbly over the oblong Uranium
of downtown cletk last evening on
Chestnut street
Tell a young man what sort of
girl he ought to marry" queried a re-
porter who had accidentally become
an unlimited guest
Certainly. There is a prevalent
opinion that phrenology is a humbug,
and that all phrenologist has to do
is to run his fingers over the bumps on
the humrn head and figure out the
mind by them This, however, is a
great mistake. can tell this clerk
the kind of a girl he ought to marry
bb an exact scientific course of reaS-
oning."
Based on facts?"
OF course they are facts. When [
get through with the examination of
this young mans head l will take
pleasure in explaining them to you.
The phrenologist carefully adjusted
the tape-line over the frontalis mus
cles of the clerk, drew it back to a
point even with the top of his ears,
and carefully noted the measurement
on ten-cent Fowler & Wells chart
That will do, he continued. BE
sure, now, and don't forget Blue eyes
and light hair. She must not weigh
over $50" The clerk carefully pocket
ed the chart, put on his hat, buttoned
up his overcoat and stepped out.
DO you have many persons consult
yoa as to their love affairs asked the
reporter
Yes, more than you could i'm
imagine, only they hate to be seen
coming in here. Any body would
think the house had an indicate repu-
tation to note the way many of my
friends shoot into the room "
Men prefer to keep their love
affairs secret" lggested the repor
ter.
oh, yes; but still 1 see no reason
why"
How do you find out the special
lovebent of the mind?'
In this way; | first Judge of the
temperament of the person who enters
the room. This am enabled to do in
simultaneously. If the young man is Of
vital temperament, and his mind runs
in matter-of-fact channel, he is apt
to look with favor upon young lady
of mental temperament. Knowing
this, draw the Observation-Disclosures
that a young lady of deep blue eyes,
haxen hair and eyebrows is the fate
intended woman for that young man.
what about the form
"Well. a young man of vital tenn
permanent doesn't 90 so much on form
as he does on that idealistic formation
of the face which the physiognomists
call the Grecian, which is nothing
more, however, than an imaginative
excellency. On the other hand, Il
youngssman of motive tempera ment
always prefers a girl of vital tempera-
ment, V no cares less about the ideal
and takes a more sober view of life.
This is also true of young men of
| mental motive temperament.
AS \ RULE,
the more angular the temperament
the greater the admiration for the OPP
posite extreme.
But how do YOU weigh the rela
tive phremosing a patient. | first fix
the names of the chronological organs
definitely in my mind, and then draw
from the general appearance of my
visitor an inference us to the extent of
his or her development. In this am
rarely deceived. The same phre
biological organs, Of course, apply to
all classts of visitors. There are some
thirty organs in all, which can read
ly be localized and remembered. \
phrenologist s skill depends, of course,
upon his facility of adaptation. A
phrenologist if he is any account,
will not depend SO much, however,
upon this specific scientific principle
in unraveling human nature as upon
his knowledge of the world and intui-
tive grasp'of character, from the hints
the are inseparably linked with the
general bearing of a man.
"Have you any special priMciple by
which You determine the tempera-
ment"
YES, sir. The phrenologist CLASH
fies the Compartments i'll a way dis
tinct from the psychologist. If a man
is made up mostly of bone, sinew and
muscle, we denominate him y man of
motive temperament If he possess
es large abdomen, lungs and vital
force, we denominate him a man of
vital temperament. If he is built on
the nervous principle, with large
brain, poor digestion, small bony
framework, and general refinement
of bearing, we denominate him a man
of mental temperament. The thing
of temperamentsl lies at the basis of all
our observations. 1t would be diff
cult to clearly state what we mean by
temperaments, though it lies at the
bottom of everything we teach. >
