No family portraits remain, it seems.
Old Fan Pith-etc. was not much on
beauty and anyway, he couldn't paint
or photograph.
Yet" says Professor Elliot, 1T is
possible to give rude. blurred pic
ture Of the Pliocene precursor when
he was just on the point of venturing
on the great step upward
So here goes-and remember you
owe him respect as the head of your
family:
His body would be covered with
hair or fur except on the palms or
soles of his feet On his head the hair
grew long and thick and was contin-
ued, in all probability, down his cheeks
and chin to form a combined beard
and whisker fringe We do not think
he had much of a mustache, but prob
ably his eyebrows 'beetled'
The hair was wavy or curly; it
may have had a tendency to be lank,
straight and stiff on his head, but this
is doubtful. 1t was not so woolly as
that OF the negro. His children prob
ably had a rich Titan red or bronzy
coat of fur like that which one sees
on young Galloway cattle In the
epidermis as well as in the hair were
both black and orange pigment, but on
the whole he was probably moderate
ly dark skinned.
THE face would probably be low
and broad, as compared with modern
races.
His nose would be as broad as it
was long, with nostrils wide apart and
facing a little upward and outward,
The bridge would be almost cOncave
upward, and the nose itself-all that
there is-of the most retrousse. The
eyes were small and deeply sunken
under tie rather prominent eyebrow
ridges 1t would not be easy to distin-
guish the peculiarities of his jaw on
account of the hairy beard, and per
haps it was best so, for he had no
real chin and very retreaing lower
jaw long and narrow as we'll as pro-
jecting or prognathic upper jaw,
heavy cheekbOnes and extremely
large teeth, often with five roots to
them. Those muscles which are at
work when chewing hard food would
be enormously developed, but those
which are used in speaking would be
feeble and weak,
Seen from in front, his appearance
would be the reverse of prepossessing
the narrow, receding forehead be-
ginning with its strong eyebrow ridges,
would seem to disappear under the
mop of dark, thick hair, out Of which
the little apelike ears could hardly be
seen. He might have stood about four
feet high, with hands, when so stand
ing, reaching to the knees; both hands
and feet would be large, chest narrow;
he would be slightly bandy-legged, but
