Not illustrated. 1890 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER VI. Theories Of The Mode Of Action Of Certain Traits. "No impartial judge can doubt that the roots, as it were, of those great faculties which confer on Man his immeasurable superiority above all other animate things are traceable far down in the animate world."--Huxley. THIS age is peculiarly one of invention, of scientific research, investigation, and demonstration. The invention of the numerous and varied instruments used in the discovery of the laws and application of the apparently inexhaustible forces of Nature proves to us that there is nothing created in vain. Recent discoveries in light, color, sound, electricity, and the atmospheres are opening to us the most subtle powers in the great laboratory of Nature. Examine them as we will, destructive as many seem, they have each a use in the great scheme of Nature. Electricity is a creator and a destrover; air tears down and rebuilds; the atmospheres tend to both life and death. The forces which seem beneficent act also a malevolent part. Why is this? Why does God permit sin? These are questions which theologians have grappled with, unsuccessfully, for centuries. It is only the scientist who, aided by a persistent and intelligent "interrogation of Nature," can answer these questions. The invariable conclusion will be, that everything has its use and place in the world; that nothing is made in vain; that thunder and lightning are useful; that birds and beasts of prey are necessary. Even snakes, gnats, flies, fleas, and other destructive and annoying creatures have their use in the world. So in the human family all those passions which, unrestrained and not balanced by justice and reason, cause destruction and suffering, are, in the present undevelo]>ed condition of large...

Excerpt from Physiognomy: A Practical and Scientific Treatise; Being a Manual of Instruction in the Knowledge of the Human Physiognomy and Organism, Considered Chemically, Architecturally, and Mathematically Each age has added its contributions to our knowledge of Physiognomy, and if these contributions have not given us heretofore a correct system, at once practical and scientific, they have maintained an interest and a belief in this science. This interest and belief have served as a beacon-light, which has flashed far down the ages made brilliant by the works of the most renowned philosophers and literates. Among the Grecians, Aristotle wrote extensively on this subject. Pliny, Cicero, and others of ancient Rome, found this science Worthy of their consideration; while, later in the advancing centu ries, we find Petrus d'abbano lecturing on Physignomy be fore the students of the University of Paris. After him followed the renowned Avicenna, Averroes, Michael Scott, and the Italian sculptor and naturalist, J. Baptista Porta, the discoverer of the camera obscura. Later still, many German, French, English, and American observers left their writings among us to be added to and built upon. Lavater, in 1801, wrote numerous volumes on the subject, Copiously illustrated, in which he had the assistance of some of the best artists in Europe. It is through his works, and from. His associations, that this science is best known to modern students. His purity of life and high position (he having been an eloquent clergyman, pastor of St. Peter's Church at Zurich) placed Physiognomy on a footing of credibility.. His works are what he named them Fragments-merely, without system and largely impractical. His efforts, like those of his predecessors, have assisted in continuing the belief and interest in the science.
