the whole matter, and remember

Fortune from their door-and

nance he did not seem to possess
even ordinary intelligence. But
[ was already convinced that he
was a man of far more than ordi-
nary intelligence, and my own
observations had long ago taught
me that whenever we meet an in
telligent person whose counte-
nance, when in repose, gives no
mixing of the working of the mind,
we are in the presence of a student,
a thinker. The face of the OBJ
server of things is a register Of the
things observed; whatsoever he
knows is written on his face. But
The thinker, and especially the un-
emotional thinker, looks into his
