Human Tempcramcnts.

1t Is interesting to find SO thor
oughly scientific Il man as Prof
William Preyer has adopted the four
fold classification OF tempcraments
made nearly =, 900 years ago namely;
the choleric. sanguine, melancholy,
ard lymphatic. The existence Of one
or the other OF these TEN cramcnts
NAV bc discovered, he says IN his
work on The Infant Mind" very
early in the great ma or,vy OF chill
dTcn-in the second quarter OF the
first year, beyond doubt
Nearly every one who has written
about temperaments has made "A
classification OF his own. Galen had
nine, Haycock gives six, Graham
Brown seven, and others have got
down as low as two Modern writer's
u,c the word nervous for choeric.
and bilious for melancholic tempera-
ment With these verbal mod flea
tions the old classification seems to
answer all practical purposes, and
individuals can build up combinations
as needed.
Hutch son defines temperament as
the sum OF the physical peculiarlties
OF "a man, exclusive Of his tendency
TO disease. This Is not satisfactory,
though perhaps temperament Is a
thing a little too vague to be salts
factorily defined In modern terms
il may be said 10 he the peculiar way
in which the individual reacts To the
stimuli OF his environment There is
no doubt that one class OF persons
react quickly and easily, expend ny
energy profusely and often needlessly
in their life work; others react hope
fully and work buoyantly, yet with
less waste. We can thus distinguish
the nervous the sanguiLe, the melan
cholic, etc. A capacity TO recognize
and appreciate the importan g oI
