New Physiognomy : or signs of character, as manifested through temperament and external forms, and especially in the "the human face divine." . ssors Owen and Agassiz in natural history, and wehave shown it to pervade the vegetable as well as the animalkingdom, but that man affords its most striking exemplifica-tion [pp. 86, 87]. Still further to illustrate this principle in its practical applbcation to man, we offer the accompanying illustrations ( to 1051 inclusive), which tell their own story too well toneed much explanation. Every one will s«e at a glance thateach hand and foot corresponds with the head and face withwhich it is associated, and that if we were to give to fig. 1043,for instance, the extremities of fig. 1046, we should form animpossible monster. Figs. 1043 and 1046 are extremes. Inthe one, every part is constructed on the principle of givingas much hreadth and thickness as possibl^lto every part; inthe other, length seems to be the great characteristic aimed face and the hand are equally elongated, and the foot isevidently something more than the third of a yard.
