The principles of light and color: including among other things the harmonic laws of the universe, the etherio-atomic philosophy of force, chromo chemistry, chromo therapeutics, and the general philosophy of the fine forces, together with numerous discoveries and practical applications .. . ing off by his size and ruder power the delicacy andgrace of the woman, while the woman enhances the majesty of theman by her more petite and yielding form. The true womannaturally desires in man masculine force of character, and thetrue man naturally loves in woman feminine refinement andgentleness. By feminine I do not mean effeminate, and by gen-tleness I do not mean lacking in firmness of principle. Whensuch natures form a matrimonial union their harmony, bothphysical and spiritual, will be far greater than two natures whichare too much alike, or rather which do not contrast properly. Bycontrast I do not mean contrariness, or opposition, but distinctlymarked diversity in unity ; for natures that are almost totallyopposite cannot harmonize any better than those which arealmost wholly alike. Fig. 73 presents the face of our eminent ornithologist Au-dubon, certainly one of the most feminine of masculine faces,from the delicacy of his chin and mouth and the fine curves of CONTRAST. 27. Fig. 7i- Zenat Mahal-Begum, Queen of Delhi, drawn by a native artist, on Gradation.
