SAYS ||CONVEX" TYPE FACE |
INDICATES QUICK THINKERS

| NEW YORK.-Have you a percep-
tive forehead, or a quick chin, or an
| initiative nose? These are some of
the facial characteristics which stand
out in the convex type of quick-tem-
| permanent persons. 1 will touch upon
these characteristics briefly in this
article, but I must warn readers not
to attempt to apply the character
| analysis principles which I lay down
today, nor in my previous articles
| where 1 described the elements of
analysis indicated by the color of the
hair, eyes and skin, until they have
become acquainted with more knowl-
edge, for there are too many of us
who try to plunge into the applica-
ton too soon. They are apt to be-
come confused and disappointed be-
cause they are unable to hit upon
the truth or apply these principles
in a practical manner.
Let us study those we know we'll
and see wherein these principles are
correct, realizing at all times that
many Of the unsolved or perplexing
problems may be cleared up in the
succeeding lessons.
In the accompanying illustration
show the face of the quick type. In
general profile the face comes to
point, somewhat convex in shape; a
keen, penetrating, quick-thinking in
dividual. In the case of the fore
head, this individual cannot think
slowly.
The moment an idea hits this fell
low his thoughts will run ahead and
he will often jump to a conclusion
reason out what the end will be. If
think it out and be ready to give 1t,
often before the one doing the speak
ing has completed. This type often
misses very valuable information,
lights and shades of thought con-
nected with the story. He is percep-
tive. He looks ahead. Always plan
ming for the future. He never thinks
of things which occurred in the past
but always Of things in the future.
This type possesses the forehead
which deals with practical things. He
loves to see the result of his labor
He is not SO apt to reflect and reason
upon what he sees. Nor to test i'm
mediateIy the practicability of his
f1rst-hand observations.
The Perceptive Forehead

the eyes are fully developed. He is
often shrewd and can take in the sit
uation almost at glance. He can
remember perfectly things he sees.
He is very observing. We have but
to recall the achievements of such
men as Darwin, Spencer, Admiral
Dewey, Depew, Lincoln, Washington,
Lee, Grant, Sherman, ETC., to prove
the theory of our principle in this
forehead respect.
The Initiative Nose
The nose is characteristic Of near
world and war generals in the past
Napoleon Bonaparte, Foch, Haig, Per-
shing and Charles Schwab, Ebert
Gary, John Pierpont Morgan, the
Wright brothers, President Harding,
ex-Presidents Wilson and Taft and
Secretary of State Hughes.
The quick chin is the sign Of &C
ton and denotes that its possessor
is quick to act. It is no virtue in
this type Of individual to do things
quickly. He cannot do otherwise. It
is not necessarily weak chin, and
it is an error to consider that a
short chin implies a weak DISPOSE
ton. There is no such thing as a
weak chin.
Some of the finest and most eff
cient people we have seen have been
the possessors of retreating chins.
With fair balance Of caution, the
individual possessing the retreating
chin makes a very efficient type in
many avenues of usefulness. 1t is
extremely difficult for a man of this
type to put off until tomorrow what
he can do today. In this respect he
often jumps at conclusions in his de-
sire to do things quickly and awak-
ems to the fact that he has done
wrong. This person is apt to be inn
pulsive and as quickly regret it. He
is quick to get and quick to forget.
Do not, however, judge too hastily.
We will imagine that we have two
individuals standing before us-Mr.
A. and Mr.. B. Both with equally
short chins. Back of the very short
chin of Mr.. A. is a very cautious
brain and lack of confidence in him
self. He would be backward and tim
id. Back of the chin Of Mr.. B. Is a
combative nature. full of self-con-
fdence. He would be very impul-
siVe.
In my article next week I will
write upon the slow or concave type,
with some very practical sugges-
lions, which will be followed very
soon by some self-analysis charts for
our readers to ar - to their friends
