Talk With an Expert on the Nose.

"Doctor my nose is too big and too fiat.
II spoils my entire face. I'll pay you any
sum if YOU will tell me how to reduce its
size and change its SHAPED"
And a young heiress of gilded Murry

pout.
child, are you crazya Do you think that
zee doctors go around with our saws in our
hands ready to shave people down to just
the proportions they may choose for the
moments"
Dampered pet of an old millionaire, "pve
read in some newspaper that doctors now
cut out the cartilage, or whatever you call

master cast, it can be made to grow into
anv shape desired"
physicians do a great many things when
necessity compels them, and noses have been
cut when disease made it compulsory and,
as YOU say, plaster casts have been used but
no sane person except yourself ever came to
a physician on such an errand. It's prepos-
ferrous, little one; really preposterous. Run
off for walk and don't bother your pretty
head about such trihes."
And as Miss Murray Hill founced out of
the office the long headed old doctor took
ont his memorandum book, jotted down:
"For professional advice about nose to Miss
Murray Hill, S25," and in due time it will
be added to papas bill.
The gamy miss who wanted her nose
made over again probably didn't know that

DR.. Jerome Allen, of this city, a we'll
known leader in aducat iOnQl mQttarS in
lecture recently on temperaments, acknowl-
edge that he had made pretty close study
of noses in connection with the work, though

acter of the animal possessing it, For ex-
ample, let us take the nose of an English
bulldog. A hound could never have the
character of a bulldog unless he borrowed
the nose of a bulldog. So take the nose of
the cat family-the hyena, the wildcat, the
common cat-and wherever that peculiar

the lower animals are represented in man

and you will find the cat nose, the hound
nose, the bulldog nose, the ape nose, and
even the fish nose and face, as well as the
eagle nose of the man who is of a grasping,
hard disposition, which this formation al
ways indicates, for a person possessing an
eagle nose has an eagles character
do you find the nose of q man signifies
the same as the nose of woman."
Eyes, there are the same peculiarities in
the nose of a man as in that of woman,
and many woman who nave Enthusiastically
masculine noses have Enthusiastically mascu-
line characters. So, vice versa, the men
who have feminine noses, have Enthusiastically
feminine characteristics. You cannot posi-

mask be prepared by cutting away all the
parts except the forehead and nose An
