OF perfection at the hands OF Taglacozzi, another
Italian who practised during the latter half Of the
sixteenth century. This really very skilful
surgeon, but the way he advertised and boasted OF
his skill would nowadays hardly be considered eth
icaL In letter Of his prospective patients he
gives long list Of persons who, he says, are almost
more satisfied with their noses than with those
which they carried before And in one Of his books
he devotes many pages citations only from the
prose writer's and the poets, but also from the lives
of the saints TO show the Importance OF having per
fectly good servtceable nose.
The method Tagliacozzi employed was much the
same as that used by the VianeOs. He usually took
the skin to form the from the patients own
arm. for he found it extremely difficult to keep two
persons fastened together for the long time necessary
for their skins grow together. Another objection
to the latter method was the curious superstition
which held that If the person from whom the skin
was borrowed CHANGED to die first the new nose
would promptly shrivel up and drop on.
Tagliacozzi very proud Of his ability and quick
to resent any hint that the noses he supplied were
not every bit as good as the original ones. Once
nObeman who had lost his nose in a duel had new
made by Tagiiacozz, but he could not get up the
courage to blow 1t for fear Of tearing It on To prove
his patients fears groundess the surgeon seized him
by the and pulled him all around the house.
The novel methods used by TagliacOzd are de-
scribed in a book which he published at Venice in
1897 In order to give the nose natural color
he advised the application Of very hot water and ex
posure to the suns rays several days He thought
the bile of turtle the best thing to apply to

AS evidence that the brilliant qualities were
derived from Elizabeth futile and not from
her husband, Dr.. Davenport says that Of the
latter's descendants by his second marriage
none Of them ever rose above mediocrity.
Dr.. Davenport has pointed out that in
order that the good qualities of Elizabeth
futile might be preserved It was necessary
that her descendants should marry persons
physically and mentally sound If they had
married defective persons the good qualities
might have been swamped Dr. Davenport
argues that in order to preserve the IN
doubtedly fine mental qualities Of many Of the
old New Englanders It is desirable that their
present descendants should make eugenic
marriages As it is, the old qualities are
liable to be lost through the intermarriage Of
closely related persons Of feeble physique.
It would be well for the New Englanders Of
old stock to marry the vigorous immigrants
recently arrived from Europe. Instead Of
complaining that these immigrants are

One Of the most striking and peculiar cases
Of the inheritance Of physical trait is "the
Bourbon nose" For over four hundred years
this remarkable type Of nose has been among
the most cherished heritages Of the royal
house of Bourbon. To-day the Duke Of Orleans
and his family, who represent the French
branch OF the house Of Bourbon, regard this
peculiar nose as among the most priceless
Of their possessions.
The BourboR nose is strongly curved at the
bridge, very prominent and very long The
curve is somewhat Semitic, but the nose is
larger and more prominent than is usual in
that type.
The nose originated, as far as we can
trace it, with King Henry ", the famous
Henry Of Navarro, the most popular king IN
French history. The extraordinary long and
prominent nose of this monarch is largely
responsible for the expression of mingled
shrewdness and sensuality that marks his
face

The London eugenic baby proved to be
girl, and has been happily named Eugenette.
She is a very fair physical specimen, we'll
above the average OF English babies.
One Of the most interesting facts IN the
science Of eugenics. as taught by DR.. Charles
B. Davenport, the leading American author
ity, is that we inherit each Of the traits In
our mental and physical make I'D from one
ancestor. If We have curly hair, It comes
entire from some original ancestor, and is
not q mixture Of the hair Of all our an
cestorA The many facts discovered proving
that traits valuable to society may be trans
nitted through eugenic marriages have led
the New York committee to offer these prizes.
DR.. Davenport has shown how the traits
Of a very remarkable woman named Eliza
beth Tuttle married over 200 years ago,
have reappeared in scores of her descend
ants, making them the most distinguished
figures in American life. She was Of great
beauty, commanding appearance, strong
viii, extreme intellectual vigor, Of mental
grasp akin to rapacity."
On November 10, 1867, she married Rich
ard Edwards, Of Hartford, Conn, a very
handsome man and an able lawyer. In 1881
Edwards divorced her for infdelity and other
misconduct Evil traits were in her blood,
for one of her sisters murdered her own
son and a brother murdered his sister, but
owing to a favorable marriage only the bril-
liant mental gifts of Elizabeth futile were
transmitted to her descendants.
OF Elizabeth futile and Richard Edwards
the only son was Timothy Edwards, who
took the degrees Of bachelor and master Of
arts simultaneously at Harvard. Of his
eleven children the only son was Jonathan
Edwards, the theologian. enc of the world
great intellects and president Of Princeton
College. Among the descendants Of Jonathan
Edwards have been Jonathan Edwards, Jr.,
president Of Union College; Timothy Dwight,
president Of Yale; Serene Edwards Dwight,
president of Hamilton College; General
Daniel Tyler, Of the Civil War; Timothy
Dwight the second, president Of Yale; Theo-
dore William Dwight, founder of the Colum-
bia University Law School; Henrietta Whit

to invent the cotton gin; Merrill Edwards

XVI, had this nose. The nose came back to
the throne with Louis XVIII, in 1915, and
left it again when Louis Philippe, Of the
branch Of Bourbon-Orleans was driven out
Of France in 1913.
The Duke Of Orleans, who represents this
branch, is naturally proud Of his nose, for it
appears to be all that is left of the makeup
Of his famous ancestor. Most Of the dukes
relatives had it, and one of lis uncles, the
Duke de Chartres, was almost reproduction
Of Henry ".
Here It is interesting to note that family
well known in New York society has dis
tinctive nose that has been handed down for
many generations. Mrs I Townsend Bur
den's rather prominent but distinguished
nose is an exact reproduction of that of her
ancestress. Evelyn Byrd, noted Virginia
belle Of Colonial days. All the women of
the family have had this nose, and it has
descended to Mrs. Burdens two handsome
daughters.
Such little facts as these suggest the pos
sibilities Of eugenic science. It Is not, OF
course, proposed By. serious eugenists TO per
petuate a particularly distinguished nose or
chin, but that they may be transmitted shows
that more important traits, such as great bod
fly energy or a brilliant mental quality. may
be transmitted
Those who feel that they have beauty, tai
ent and other fine qualities, are now urged to
transmit them to Dosterity and save them to

interest are reported IN many quarters.
The Sociological Fund Committee Of the

DR.. Davenport mentions two descendants
of Elizabeth futile Pierrepont Edwards

inherited some Of her evil traits as well as
her good ones.
The four daughters of Elizabeth Tuttle-

women Of character and great influence, but
women of those days are rarely credited by

many distinguished descendants. Among them
