FACE ONCE WAS EXPRESSIVE.
Now General Aim Seems to Be to Con
ceal Emotion Of Every Kind.

We are accustomed to the idea that our
facial expressions are keys TO the lives we
lead, and that one who understands nature
may easily read human faces. I That this is
true to-a large degree is unquestoned, for
we have only to look about Us to Judge
Tor ourselves OF the happiness or unhappi-
ness OF those with whom we happen to
come IN contact Indeed, in the ages long
since past, before even spoken language
permitted the freer Interpretation OF man :
emotions, the human countenance was the
chief means of expressing says the
Charleston News and Courier One by one
the great thoughts Of the human race have
| been reproduced as far as possible in the
| eyes and general expression OF the face,
now flashing ont with startling significance,
| displaying ugly lines and characteristics.
As civilization advanced, however, and the
means OF human intercourse broadened
and developed the need for transIating the
inner needs and energies into facial ex-
preston lessened until, unfortunately, it
Is often dlAteult to read correctly the mes
sage Of the countenance.
Where in former days the natural effort
Of all human beings. unconscious though
i may have been, seemed TO be to reveal
their wishes openly upon their faces the
general aim now Is to conceal emotion Of
every kind
