variations and com limitations which in
dictate the characteristics not only of
human beings, but of all other ma

properties are texture, size, color,
form, structure, consistency, proper
ton, expression and experience or

Texture a C1assifier,
Texture is a great classifier of hu-

fine textured skin, delicately chiselled
features, slender, graceful body and
limbs, as a general rule, is refined,
loves beauty and grace, and likes work
either purely mental in its nature or
offering an opportunity to handle
fine, delicate materials and tools. On
the other hand, the man with coarse
hair, coarse textured skin, and large
strongly formed features. inclines as
a general rule to occupations in which
strength, vigor, virility and an ability
to live and work in the midst of harsh,
rough and unbeautiful conditions are
prime requirements.

light weight are obviously adapted to
light work, and work requiring quick

stature and heavy weight are adapted
to lifting and moving about large and
heavy masses of materials when en-

rule, are changeable, variety loving,
brunettes are consistent, steady, de-
pendable, serious and conservative.
