In the observation of the organs, it will be of advantageto the student to confine his attention at first to estimatingthe relative size of the different regions of the in mind the fact that the size of the organs is ingeneral measured by the distance from the medulla oblo?i-gata, and that a line drawn through the openings of the earswill nearly intersect this point, we are able to estimate with.

The extent of the Intellectual organs in general is meas-ured by the projection of the forehead from a line drawnvertically upward from a point on the zygoma just in frontof the ear. Men of great intellects invariably have fore-heads which project well over the orbits of the eyes, be-sides showing breadth and fullness in other forehead was remarkable for its projection and 214 BRAIN AND MIND. size, and Dr. Gall, from merely seeing his bust placedalongside those of the Austrian Generals, predicted themarvelous successes over them which he afterwardachieved. In the forehead, as we have seen, are located two classesof organs—the Peiceptives and the Reflectives—which fre-quently differ much m size.
