Prof. Jacques vjfjBj La Tour, the famous French beauty expert, returns this week to the gm discussion of the subject of physlog- H jB nomy, which he previously ha spoken on entertainingly and ln-J'ViB ln-J'ViB structlvely. CtM Probably no method of deducing character by observation of the face of mnn is more generally accepted PfK than as 11 1 indicated by the chin. 191 Si I Tho reason probably is that it ia 1qH most strongly marked in that feat- jfflfl ure Tne "trong. protruding chin SgPH ,s generally accepted as Indicative of firmness an decision of character, while tho weak, receding chin is mH almost Imarlably held to indicate gP9l vacillating character. Is this not eSJ ? you pause to think you PjJM remember that you, yourself are in Hi the habit of basing similar deduc- BgM) tlons from observations of stranger RpjH coming to your notice. bH So Professor La Tour ask you: hrM "Vhat does your chin denote?" It K&fl reenls your character, ho tells you To the Initiated it la Indicative of whether you aro determined, bold. jH aggressive, acquisitive, affectionate. HB' weak, indecisive degenerate etc. It.

You recognize the typo? Tou recall that you almost unconsciously unconscious-ly associate such a chin with shrewdness. Tho long undorjaw with a square, protruding chin, as we have stated. Indicates persistency or perseverance. persever-ance. Tho bulldog faculty. "Tho long underjaw and square, protruding chin," Professor La Tour says, "indicates tenacity of purpose, inasmuch as the formation shows great strength to hold on with the Jaws when once they MlM an object, alnd nature inclines the possessor to cscrclae whatever strength they may be possessed of. "U henever the J;twa indicate that the the disposition to hold Is good, that character will permeate overy fiber of the entlro being, as the faculty Is general in that form. With this strength to hold on there also Is perseverance or persistency sticking stick-ing like a leech to any purpose. Honesty of purpose and straightforwardness straight-forwardness of conduct are Indicated by a bony chin which usually Is accompanied ac-companied by prominent cheekbones. cheek-bones. In fact. Professor La Tour says, you will find that in all well-balanced characters all the features are. in harmony. "All nature tends to harmony," he says, "and the absence of harmony Is produced simply by certain unequal un-equal conditions of nature. "All faces long from the top of the forehead to the bottom of ths chin And rv mr.-r.iv indf'-it a lack of balance. They usually aro cold, unsocial, distant, and of feeble fee-ble constitution " And again he impresses on ou his dogma that it Is necessary to live right and think right to be truly tru-ly beautiful and that true beauty can never bo gained by cosmetics or surgical operations. Ho believes that sursrery is only to be used to cure deformity, disease or to repair injury, but should never bo debased In an attempt to beautify a healthy limb or feature. Cosmetics he denounces de-nounces and only rccommensd lotions lo-tions or tonics the properties of which he has carefully studied to ascertain that they arc harmless TO BF BEAUTIFUL BE HARMONIOUS. Proper eating, plenty of exercise, fresh air. sunlight and sleep and clean thinking and living compose t&e La Touriieautv formula. It Is an harmonious programme of life and to be beautiful we must be harmonious, har-monious, this expert tells us. "To bo In harmony should be our constant aim," ho says, "not only within ourselves, but with all the world. This condition of body and mind, also. Is a great promoter of longevity. When the head and brain are well balanced, that is, the head is not too large for the bodily support, sup-port, and the body not too strong In Its vital powers for th size of the brain It supports, then there Is harmony har-mony between the brain or mental power, and the body, or physical, and old age is much more likely to be attained by such organisms than by unequal systems. A machine which, runs true. each wheel smoothly performing Its .-r mr)l last a long time. If one wheel Jars or Is out of proportion, the machine will accomplish ery little useful work and soon will wear out So It Is with the Individual. If each organ or-gan is In harmony and proportion to the entire faculties of body and mind, the result Is usefulness and a long life. Wc should bo surprised to look at a very old man ami find a want of harmony In his body. If sui h cases do extot tbey aro exceptional excep-tional and only prove the general law the more true " So you perceive Professor Li Tour Is not one of your so-called beauty experts, who gie forth recipes for the mixing of cosmetics and lotions with the assurance that their uss will bring beauty to their users, but Is a .li-ep student and philosopher. His advbc Is based on years of study and experiment. STl l OF CHARACTER IS AX OLD ONE The study of character and its indications in-dications is as old as human Inquiry. In-quiry. For centuries tho face has been studied and tho work of reducing reduc-ing it to a science has been going on continuously. At the same time all otiservant people will study the face and lis expression and be Influenced hy it without having any science or rules for it. or means of explaining It. And yet their Impressions, in the main, will be correct. The changing expression of the face universally is regarded as a mirror In which passing pass-ing thought or present emotion can bo seen and yoiir shrewd criminal early strives to perfect himself In controlling h!s facial muscles. And tho scienco o physiognomy has for fBfft It has bom a long time ripening Into maturity, but now has taken up so assured a position In the foreground fore-ground of social and scientific progress pro-gress to become thoroughly recognized recog-nized In the Important bearing It takes up In relation to all phases of society. There Is, however, ample proof that physiognomy was, even at tho time of tho very earliest of the Greek writers, a recognized department depart-ment of science, however far it may have fallen short at that time ol correctness or accuracy In Us deduction de-duction or formulae. And thero were then, as now. many "born" physiognomists. That there aro such Is undeniable In facts It 11 most strikingly Illustrated every day In commercial life Your successful success-ful salesman depends largely on innate in-nate uMUty as a physiognomist. Professor La Tour tells of a ludicrous application of physiognomical physiog-nomical acumen to the furtherance of business in a French town. "One of the salesmen in a largo dry goods store." he says, "was a born physloKnomlst. who could drive sales In the teeth almost of Impassibility Itself. Unfortunately his capacity for business were very much Impaired by a taste for alcoholic al-coholic refreshment, which he frequently fre-quently allowed to master him. He was too good a salesman to be dls- harged, however, and his employer felt recompensed for his frequent absences by the clever salesmanship he displayed when sober. sM xMW KAJUBB TSE OF CHARACTER STUDY. "On tho occasion In question tho salesman, who had been absent dur- the afternoon towlnsr In one of those customers (a woman) Who belonged to that class who aro Insatiably In-satiably greedy of bargains. Th pbysiolgnomi.Ht. oj.r rating as salesman, sales-man, had deduced her character in a flash and got to work.
