Determination, Prudence, Strong Powers of Meditation, and a Keen Sense of Justice are shown in the face of Gregory Scott. GREGORY SCOTT. THE broad, high-rounded, and full forehead of Gregory Scott indicates a progressive, comprehensive, and enterprising mind. Note the faculty of comparison in the upper part of the forehead. The Eyebrows, THE nearer the eyebrows are to the eyes, the more earnest, deep, and firm is the character. It would be difficult for this man to lie. Note the keen, straight masterful expression. For the man of this type his heart is big, and there is no room in it to hold the memory of a wrong. From a business standpoint he is not a great success. The Nose. I PARTICULARLY request the attention ro his fine aristocratic nose. The strerigl '. line shows a masterful mind. How in I mony is the nose and forehead in this handsoii •• face, showing the dilated nostril and knowledge that he is no stranger to life's sorrows ! Bittea • ness, and pain, they stand aside and let Inn. pas?. For the genius of lifo is friendly to the noble, and in his dark momenta will bring bun many friends. The Mouth. DETERMINATION, prudence, deep and strong powers of meditation, just ir e — before generosity, a man who has hiiuself well in hand. A generous friend. Personality. HIS personality carries with it strength, which makes itself felt. His very spirit indicates his strength and his power smiles to the last. A personality with a quick eye for differences ; and of many parts. Nature in w hich he delights works to this end. Courage. NOTE the modelling between the eyes over the inside of the eyebrows. W hat, a new face it put* on everything j It comes naturally to men of this type. wbo$0 very attitude puts a stop to defeat and begin* to conquer. Wise to know, bold tg perform, with great impulses, and many resources. Fortunate in enterprise. A man who could neve r get an inspiration from a detail, but who would grasp the principle of things, . though there is appreciation of detail also. The Face as a Whole. THE width of the faco, denotes a strong, firm, passionate nature, born te command. The eyes, steady, searching. The nose, fino sensibilities and love of the beautiful in Datura. The mouth, firmness, justice. The chin, keen mentality and lovableness. Iu Health. USUALLY great recuperative powers, and strong vitality. They would be wise to keep as much in the open as possible, s-, strange to say, that nature they are so fond of need be their onlv medicine. FILM TPXJL2<[m He Was Off.
