deas consecutively, and connectedly, and always to the
point, yet never dwells unduly: p. 70.

MODERATE.--Loves and indulges variety, and change of thought, feeling,
occupation, etc.; is not confused by them; rather lacks application; with
a good intellectual lobe, and an active temperament, knows a little about
a good many things, rather than much about any one thing; with an active
organization thinks clearly, and has unity and intensity of thought and
feeling, yet lacks connectedness; with large Language and small
Secretiveness, talks easily, but not long at a time upon one thing; does
better on the spur of the moment, than by previous preparation; and should
cultivate consistency of character and fixedness of mind, by finishing as
he goes all he begins: p. 71.

SMALL.--With activity great, commences many things, yet finishes few;
craves novelty and variety; puts many irons into the fire; lacks
application; jumps rapidly from premise to conclusion, and fails to
connect and carry out ideas; is a creature of impulse; lacks steadiness
and consistency of character; may be brilliant, yet cannot be profound;
humming-bird like, flies rapidly from thing to thing, but does not stay
long; has many good thoughts, yet they are scattered; and talks on a great
variety of subjects in a short time, but fails sadly in consecutiveness of
feeling, thought, and action. An illustrative anecdote. An old and
faithful servant to a passionate, petulant master, finally told him he
could endure his testiness no longer, and must leave, though with extreme
reluctance. "But," replied the master, "you know I am no sooner mad than
pleased again." "Aye, but," replied the servant, "you are no sooner
pleased than mad again:" p. 71.

VERY SMALL.--Is restless, and given to perpetual change; with activity
great, is composed of gusts and counter-gusts of passion, and never one
thing more than an instant at a time: p. 72.

SELFISH PROPENSITIES.

[Illustration: No. 53. LARGE.]

[Illustration: No. 54. SMALL.]

These provide for man's ANIMAL wants; create those desires and instincts
which relate more especially to his animal existence and habitual wants.

LARGE.--Gives strong animal desires; creates that selfishness which takes
good care of number one; is strongly attached to this world and its
pleasures; and, with activity great, uses vigorous exertions to accomplish
worldly and personal ends; with the moral organs less than the selfish,
connected
