To tell the character of a person by Phrenology requires the services
of a trained expert, and the few indications we can give here can only
serve to call the reader’s attention to the subject in a general way.
The foregoing chart is generally used by phrenologists. The numbers
specify the location of each organ, and the following is a description
of the same.
These organs are on the head in the shape of protuberances or bumps,
and can be felt with the fingers. In many cases there is nothing to
indicate their existence, in other cases they are well developed.
PROPENSITIES.
1. Amativeness. 2. Philoprogenitiveness. 3. Concentrativeness.
4. Adhesiveness. 5. Combativeness. 6. Destructiveness.
6a. Alimentiveness. 7. Secretiveness. 8. Acquisitiveness.
9. Constructiveness.
LOWER SENTIMENTS.
10. Self-esteem. 11. Love of Approbation. 12. Cautiousness.
SUPERIOR SENTIMENTS.
13. Benevolence. 14. Veneration. 15. Conscientiousness. 16. Firmness.
17. Hope. 18. Wonder. 19. Ideality. 20. Wit. 21. Imitation.
PERCEPTIVE FACULTIES.
22. Individuality. 23. Form. 24. Size. 25. Weight. 26. Color.
27. Locality. 28. Number. 29. Order. 30. Eventuality. 31. Time.
32. Tune. 33. Language.
REFLECTIVE FACULTIES.
34. Comparison. 35. Causality.
The judgment of the phrenologist is determined by the size of the brain
in general and by the size of the organs that have been formulated,
and these are estimated by certain arbitrary rules that render the
boundaries of the regions indefinite.
A study of the cuts and comparison of the sizes of different heads and
their shape will prove very entertaining with most any group of persons
intellectually inclined, and it will be found that persons that are
naturally good readers by instinct of human nature, with its help, can
make remarkable readings in the delineation of character.
THE SCIENCE OF PHYSIOGNOMY
Physiognomy is the science of reading character thru the features and
the facial characteristics. Many persons have a peculiar effect upon
us. We feel antipathetic toward them in spite of their friendliness.
Others awaken our sympathy at once. This has been ascribed to an “Aura”
or electric emanation that affects our own psychic being. It is easy
for the practiced eye to read a person’s peculiar traits by a close
examination of his face. This can be corroborated by a study of his
habits and the way he dresses. While no definite rules can be laid down
for all, the following indications will be found fairly correct and may
be taken as a guide.
