A perfectly divided face is as follow:
One third from the roots of the hair
to the root Of the nose; one third from
/ the root Of the nose to its tip. and one
third from the tip Of the nose to the
| tip of the chin, equal parts. In parties
! tres. like old Gaul.

| are never found in faces of men of low
organization or coarse habits"
THE NOSE.
The nose is one of the chief land
marks OF the face.
Without Il the face is like a city
without street numbers.
About the first thing one sees in a
| face is its nose. looming up in the
Edistanee like the mast Of a ship on the
| horizon, and you Judge intuttfvely of
! the person you see as the nose is large
or small. broad or deep or sharp. pug
I or the reverse. red or pale, dignifed or
commonplace.
| If 1 We're a new King getting up a
| nobility or aristocracy, should make a
selection of noses: take all those who
had good noses and make Dukes and
Earis Of them.
They might turn out badly, of course,
but they would offer a better per CEN
tum and average than any of the
aristocrats OF the old world. The echo
| OF Who Knows is, Whose nose?
| Large noses are said to indicate
generosity, and with the proverbial ex-
lception, they do.
But you must know what large
means.
1t is not very long noses but wen
Iproportioned ones.
If a nose occupies its proper place
| in the face, il viii be large. Besides.
YOU may have noses large at the tip
and low bridged: such are not large"
in the right sense. Long noses which
| project from the tip--or cave over the
| face-and are larger there than at
| the bridge. are the very worst recon-
Imendation TO their pOssessor.
| They belong to smaIIgifted, jealous,
disa agreeable persons.
However, when you meet such a nose
whose owner is the reverse of all this.
you will know that he is an exceprss4t.
But this nose with prominent, pro-
truding eyes is an almost certain in
dication OF a coarse grained individual.
On the other hand, long, sharp point
| ed noses belong TO very exact, rather
acid men and women.
They may have fine qualities but as
a rule are disliked by those who are
with them most. Benjamin Harrison
had such nose.
A man who has nose of this sort,
and who. when he laughs, wrinkles the
fskin at the bridge and adjoining cheek,
is sly, and given 10 Investigations of
a scavenger nature; he loves to find
out things about good people, and on
the sly 10 prove that Mr.. So and So
is not all that he represents himself
to be.
Many an old maid has this sort of
nose, and not few ministers. They
are generally savers of money.
Persons of small vital force and a
tendency TO phithisis, usually have thin
nostrils which are very mobile.
| The perfect nose has a lridge which
| is wide and almost straight
The nose with thick nostrils, large
spaces for air, thick and pulpy is found
in people of a lower order.
A nose with a slight turn upwards
| is generally indicative of "uppishness."
limpudence,. selfassertion without ac-
lcompanyfng ability. But pug noses are
also found in persons Of q very sweet
! disposition and often in those who
have unusual musical ability.
! In such there is generally a modify
ing facial quality like a refined and
| pleasant mouth.
In all good noses there is a depres-
sion between the nose and forehead.
Idiots have no such depression, as a
rule.
A high. broad nose not projectile
either upward or downward, is indica-
/ tive Of character and originality.
| A nose of the same depth from the
| tip to the upper part of lip as from
/ the bridge to the inner part of cheek.
shows refined, individual person.
Roman nose-eharacter; Greek nose,
taste.
Persons whose noses taken in profile
usually are lively in conversation and
/ possessed Of wit.
| A well proportional, prominent nose.
refined mouth and strong chin are the
| best facial combination a person can
have.
/ Regular, even noses are usually
found ia wei balanced individuals.
| Noses turned down and inwards at
/ the tip show a penurious often ILL
humored person. Such a nose had
Scrooge. am sure.
Such noses abound among the money
getters.
Turned up noses under high, broad
foreheads are almost always found in
men of despotic temperament, con-
ceited and supercilious.
/ Such men usually make it a bust
ness TO have a ready-hand knowledge.
A habit I have noticed IN such per-
sons and in al cyclists, is that Of
/ walking with the chin upwards and
IoutwarGs, the reverse of the thought
Z
ard his forehead forward.
