le to
endorse; and with an active temperament, is too industrious to come to
want; yet too generous ever to be rich. For additional combinations, see
Acquisitiveness large: p. 93.
AVERAGE.--Loves property; yet the other faculties spend quite as fast as
this faculty accumulates; with Cautiousness large or very large, loves
property in order to be safe against future want; with large
Approbativeness, desires it to keep up appearances; with large
Conscientiousness to pay debts when it has the means; with large
intellectual organs, will contribute to intellectual attainments; yet the
kind of property and objects sought in its acquisition, depend upon other
and larger faculties: p. 89.
MODERATE.--Values and makes property more for its uses than itself; seeks
it as a means rather than an end; with Cautiousness large, may evince
economy from fear of coming to want; or with other large organs, to secure
other ends; yet cares no great for property on its own account; is rather
wasteful; does not excel in bargaining, or like it; has no great natural
pecuniary tact, or money-making capability, and is in danger of living
quite up to income; with Ideality large, must have nice things, no matter
if they are costly, yet does not take first-rate care of them; disregards
small expenses; purchases to consume as soon as to keep; prefers to enjoy
earnings now to laying them up; with large domestic organs, spends freely
for family; with strong Approbativeness and moderate Cautiousness, is
liable to be a spendthrift, and contract debts to make a display; with
Hope large, runs deeply in debt, and spends money before it is earned; and
thus of the other combinations: p. 94.
SMALL.--Holds money loosely; spends it often without getting its full
value; cares little how his money goes; with Hope very large, enjoys his
money to-day without saving for to-morrow; and with large Approbativeness
and Ideality added, and only average Causality, is prodigal, and spends
money to poor advantage; contracts debts without providing for their
payment, etc. For additional combinations, see Acquisitiveness moderate:
p. 95.
VERY SMALL.--Neither heeds nor knows the value of money; is wasteful;
spends all it can get; lacks industry, and will be always in want: p. 95.

fore part, called Accumulation, saves; the former large and latter small,
