d
Destructiveness, is more severe in word than deed, and threatens more than
executes; with larger moral than animal organs, literally overflows with
sympathy and practical goodness, and reluctantly causes others trouble;
with large reasoning organs, is a true philanthropist, and takes broad
views of reformatory measures; with large Adhesiveness and
Philoprogenitiveness is pre-eminently qualified for nursing; with large
Causality, is an excellent adviser of friends, etc., and should not let
sympathy overrule judgment. See Benevolence large for additional
combinations: p. 157.

FULL.--Shows a good degree of kind, neighborly, and humane feeling, except
when the selfish faculties overrule it, yet is not remarkable for
disinterestedness; with large Adhesiveness, manifests kindness toward
friends; and with large Combativeness and Destructiveness, is unrelenting
toward enemies; with large Acquisitiveness, is benevolent when it can make
money thereby; with large Conscientiousness, is more just than kind, and
with large Combativeness and Destructiveness, is unrelenting toward the
offending: p. 158.

AVERAGE.--Manifests kindness only in conjunction with Adhesiveness and
other large faculties; and with only full Adhesiveness, if kind is so for
selfish purposes; with large Acquisitiveness, gives little or nothing, yet
may sometimes do favors; with large Veneration, is more devout than
humane; and with only full reasoning organs, is no philanthropist or
reformer: p. 153.

MODERATE.--Allows the selfish faculties to infringe upon the happiness of
others; with large Combativeness, Destructiveness, Self-Esteem, and
Firmness, is comparatively hardened to suffering; and with Acquisitiveness
and Secretiveness added, evinces almost unmitigated selfishness.

SMALL.--Cares little for the happiness of man or brute, and does still
less to promote them; makes no disinterested self-sacrifices; is callous
to human woe; does few acts of kindness, and those grudgingly, and has
unbounded selfishness: p. 159.

VERY SMALL.--Feels little and evinces none of this sentiment, but is as
selfish as the other faculties will allow him to be: p. 159.

20. CONSTRUCTIVENESS.

The MAKING instinct; the TOOL-using talent; SLEIGHT of hand in
constructing things. Adapted to man's need of things made, such as houses,
clothes, and manufacturing articles of all kinds. Perverted, it wastes
time and money on perpetual motion, and other like futile inventions.
