Told by the Features.

Men who succeed In commerce
have alert faces. but no particular
features. Clergymen who go up the
ladder Of preferment have faces that
tell of self-repression-tight lips, eyes
which look straight ahead Artists, on
the other hand, have eyes which are
all over the place and small, well
formed chins. Politicians who succeed
by their influence over men have al
ways prominent noses.
