Noses.

We are told by students of nature
Of the forest there are no two that are
exactly alike. A close examination
viii snow variations in every indiv-
idual leaf. 1t is ..-e same with all oi
the hundreds of millions of human
noses. They all consist of certain
parts adapted to perform the functions
devolving upon the organ: they are
all placed in the same position, but
each one has a certain individuality
stamped upon it. Pure races of men
have the same general kind of noses
but each Individual has one patterened
especially for himself and distinguish
able from all others.
Dominant races tell the story of their
superiority and of their dominion over
their fellows in their noses, and dom
inant men have the kind of nose that
indicates power and force. All the
great races that have led the civiliza-
tion of the world from the time of the
ancient Egyptians down have had the
nose of power. The prevailing type in
all of these races has Deen the high,
straight or convex nose, with astraight
or dropping base, concealing the nos
trils. The flat-ncsed races have been
the subject peoples through all time,
and will continue to occupy subordi-
nate positions, no matter what advant-
ages civilization may try to confer on
them. There is considerable ribaldry
on account of the Jewish nose, but it
is one of the greatest of race noses.
IL is q nose of power and strength
and persistence, and the history of the
Jew and his success under all Sorts of
conditions are an evidence of this
Did you ever see a great general or
statesman, or a very successful man of
any kind, who had an inferior nose
If the nose does not grow right the
man will not grow right. If McKin-
ley had not had the nose he had he
would never have put 1t into the White
House. The shape and prominence Of
that particular feature at one time
earned for him The sobriquet of Ma
poleon, who was distinguished for the
nose with which nature had endowed
him, and who had French nickname
corresponding TO "Nosey" in Eng
lish. Lincoln was considered a home
ly man, his face was ffabby and cad
averous, but he had a splendid, we'll
shaped, long powerful nose. 1t was
the Roman nose that made Rome
great, and the Grecian nose that gave
to Greek civilization endless fame
Look at Dewey's nose and you will un-
derstand his success at Manila, and
hoDson nose shows why he was not
afraid 70 sink the Merrimac, and is not
now afraid of the kissing girls.
There Is story of Tycho Drahe, the
Danish astronomer, that having lost
his nose in duel he wore one made
of gold, and was consequently known
as the man with the golden nose
INNS NAV h1 tue or not, but many a
man, figuratively speaking has gold
en- nose; for it is nose that carries
him to success in whatever he may un-
dertake. His success may not reside
in the nose itself but it is the sign
which nature puts out to say to the
world, Here Is a man of pawer and
might and will" Even if you are
not physiognomist, and though you
may think that you have not observed
man at all, you will instinctively size
him UP by his nose. 1t is an interest
ing study, and one that can be taken
up at any time without the assistance
of books and without any Interference
with other pursuits.-Pittsburg Times.
